    An Alliance buddy pointed out War Machine seems to have been skipped in PvP rewards, so he may be the other reward next week. He'd make a good feeder for fivestar Iron Man.

    War Machine is certainly possible and is due as a PVP reward whenever they resume normal rewards. I still lean towards Mordo feeding Strange since they are on the loading screen, and otherwise they haven’t featured anyone from that side (magic) of the MCU.

    Wasp is the next "regular" PvP fourstar reward, and War Machine should come Before her, so he seems to be skipped.

    Speaking of the loading screen, I wish the Defenders got a shout. Put 4* Luke/Danny and 5* Jess/Matt all on the same splash screen. Could have been a cool little homage to the Netflix corner of the MCU.

    If this patterns continues my guest is Dr Strange and Iron Man will be the next two to get feeders. 
    What’s the pattern that makes you think those two are next?
    Since they're MCU characters. Could easily be Okoye and Strange though.

    My hope is they fast track everyone getting a feeder than start slowly adding dupe feeders. I know, hard flung dream there, but we really do need duel feeders with how slow individual 4 progress happens.
    This threads implies that Shuri will be the featured 4* in PvE after Winter Soldier (based on placement rewards from Webbed Wonder). Following the MEHulk trend, I'm guessing her feeding Okoye is one of the next two (assuming there is two) feeders during this glorious MCU-10 celebration.

    The second is anyone's guess, but my gut says Strange.
    Shuri is 100% the perfect choice for Okoye feeder despite her newest imo. But if Strange is the paired 5, it would really be a weak move by the devs to select Wiccan over Mordo.

    Without a doubt Mordo would give a lot of covers to people since he was a twelve for a long period, but that selection would be the best choice. Not just because of the tie-in, but the good will it would generate with players. Sometimes got to give a little to get more in return.

    Concerning Banner, other than some obvious choices, devs would really show their intent for feeders if they selected iron spider man...I could see it happening.

    Putting aside that there isn't a good choice besides Shuri, if they make Shuri a feeder for Okoye next week, it will be exactly 6 months after her release. I'd call 6 months a fair length of time... it isn't as good as the years for ones like XFW and Kingpin, but it's not the 2.5 months for Black Panther and Jubilee either.

    I don’t know why these comments bother me, but they do. Three of my highest leveled 4s (Gamora, Vulture, Hulk) all have feeders. My second highest (Rogue) will likely feed Gambit at some point as well. 

    Have they made some questionable choices (like Jubilee to Phoenix, Drax to Star-Lord), of course. But they’ve been really ramping up the feeders, gave Loki a fat feeder upon release, oh and that great cover save feature which has made waste almost obsolete. But if Iron Spidey  feeds the worst 5* in the game, you “know their intentions?  Feels like a lot of “what have you done for me lately” on the boards. Though if I’m misunderstanding I do apologize. Don’t mean to be rude, I just want to speak to the other side.

    Another thing to consider: So far all the selected new feeders during the celebration have been MCU characters, released as MCU tie-ins (Hulk and Valkyrie for Ragnarok, Black Widow for Infinity War, and Winter Soldier for Civil War.). If they give 5trange a feeder at this Point Mordo would fit the pattern a whole lot better than Wiccan. I suppose they could go with Nico who was released as a Runaways tiein, but so far it has been Movies only.

    Why not go Nova for 5strange. 3 strange feeds Nova to then feed 5 strange.

    Brigby ....how many weeks is this celebration?  2 and done? 3? 4? 52? 7,000?

    ....just kidding :p
    Hahaha!! Yes!!
    That's fair.  Can you at least tell us, will the final week be labeled "last week" or just "week (number of week)"?

    It was nice to get my first red cover for BeardCap yesterday. I knew champing the Winter Soldier would pay off one day :-)

    I'm glad to see the 5* feeder system seems to be moving along more quickly now, although as some have noted it might just be a temporary thing to coincide with the ten year celebration. Can't knock free five star covers though! The more the merrier :smiley:
