just wondering how the community is spread among people needing roster slots vs. iso to champ vs. covers...
please choose the more 'basic' - like, everyone would like 5* covers, but if covers are sitting on the vine due to roster slot / iso shortage, that should be your choice.

    ISO to champ
    ISO. Always ISO. I experienced two basic phases of resource demands.

    1  Pre-ISO HP demand
    2  Post-HP ISO demand (been here for years)

    One day I hope to find myself at the 3rd phase - Post ISO (just need covers)

    I have over half of the 4s champed and about 2/3 remaining at 13 covers but right now I'm most interested in 5* covers.  Iso would be a very close second.

    I have too little HP to roster and too much ISO on my hands.  
    Am I the only one?  Seems that way with reading the forum.

    You are not the only one. I have been in this spot for years. We are just under-represented on these forums. There are easy enough ways to get out of this position but it typically requires sacrificing money or time. I've not been able to give enough of either (in the case of money, I've given NONE), but I've learned to live with it. It's nice to NEVER have to worry about ISO, but it is a constant effort to juggle those slots. That effort, though, can be just a rewarding. Deciding who to keep and who to dump. Using "floater" slots; even temporarily selling my 1* slot if I need to "just for a few days".

    I'm experiencing my very first ISO squeeze now and am slowly, slowly ticking up three ready-to-champ characters one level a day.  I understand the frustration at last... but I'm even more frustrated by having about seven 5* characters with a single cover each.

    I recently hit ISO positive status and am up to 800K ISO in the bank with all characters leveled as high as they can go based on their covers. Just need more 5* covers to soak up the ISO.

    You aren't! Lacking HP is a very very common situation--- but it's also more of an early- to mid-game problem. Most people in the forum are veteran players and have passed that stage of the game. Once you have a 2* farm, all 3* champed and most of the 4* and 5* rostered, your HP income should be able to easily keep pace with new releases. Takes a while to get there, though.

    4* covers
    I need covers for the last few 4* releases and and a handful of older characters who are sitting on 11 or 12 covers.

    Iso. 

    Even though I’m practically finished with champing 4*s I think I’d need about 8 million in the 5* tier.

    ISO to champ
    I had a lot of ISO stocked up but once I started champing a lot of 3*s it depleted it. I now have to wait to level up characters which sucks, lol. I'm okay on roster space though but I'm sure I'll run out of that eventually too and need more HP.

    5* covers (every other tier mostly/entirely champed)
    I was going to say Iso for champ but with the changes to saving covers I don't think it will be as much of an issue as I can pick and choose on whom I'd like to invest it into. With most of the 4* tier champed (50) and a few 5's fully covered but none higher than lvl 330, I'd like to get a few more of the heavy hitters full covered before stepping up to 5* land. Hopefully that way I can maintain some diversity and avoid burning out getting stuck playing the same team over n over.

    Toss up between ISO and 5* covers.
    Though my need is slightly less now that we can save as many covers as we like. I can take my time and not feel so pressured. Like I just had to sell a JJ cover because my saves are already full and I couldn't get the last black I needed within 2 weeks.

    Made no sense to convert the covers to champ her at level 151 when I could just wait, store all the covers and champ her at at least 453 later.

    Red-ISO to level supports, since they are going nowhere.
    ISO to build up my 4-star roster and transitioning to a new tier.
    HP for roster slots, for additional 5-stars to be recruited, even at one cover.

    I'm transtioning to 4* land and I'm lacking HP. I have 1.1 million iso-8 now and it looks really nice. I'm aware that it's enough to champ almost 3 4*.

    ISO to champ
    ISO at the moment. It's not too bad, tho. I only have two fully covered, but not champed, 4* sitting around, and one of them is at 209 already. A few days of only drawing covers for existing champs or characters far away from it could see me back at the point where what I really need is 4* covers.

    5* covers (every other tier mostly/entirely champed)
    I kind of need ISO as I've got 11 4*s you champ (including Emma Frost) but three of those characters are at 13 covers (and a couple saved). But R158 means that I can save to champ those for a long time if needed so it's not a rush anymore. But I will need 5* covers to be even partly competitive if I start sinking ISO into them.

    I've got 167 5* covers and all 26 5*s rostered, with the highest at 11 and most in the 6 - 8 region. So getting those higher is probably my priority even if I regret it once I've achieved it!
