    What's Changed:
    • Characters in upcoming waves will no longer display before the wave completes.
    Does this also fix the issue with characters in the 2nd wave activating passives based on damage to the first wave? Or is that too much to ask and this is a display only fix?

    Super minor, and random, but this was actually something that really used to irk me. Thanks!

    Money's on Karolina Dean and giving us another of the Runaways team. The reboot of the comic thus far has been really good.

    FINALLY!  This has been bugged almost the entire 2.5 years I've been playing.  It annoys me every time it happens, which is only every day.  Thanks for the fix.
    I dont understand so if i kill 1 of a 4 enemy round the 4th person will not come up until the first 3 are dead

    Full spectrum...full spectrum. It can be a lot of things and it can be a clue for many characters. I let here another idea... Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D....

    Full spectrum goggles... created by Leonard Fitz and used by Jemma Simmons. Looks like a support more than a playable character....

    • When you are in the Assemble Your Heroes screen, your position in the roster will be maintained when returning from the Train or Info screen
    Ok, I'm really excited about this feature.  The return to the front of the line has always been an annoyance.

    When you're fighting a wave, and use an attack that finishes the wave in one fell swoop such as an AOE or a powerful cascade, an enemy from the next wave would  briefly appear in place of one of the characters as they're all dying, before the next wave shows up proper. Hard to explain without showing it to you, wish I had a video.

    Yeah basically the artwork for the next wave would show up pre-death.  Show that character die and then come back to life.  It was very weird.  Since I use 5* Thanos on DDQ waves every day I saw it every single day.

    I've also seen it happen frequently in DDQ with 2-star hawkeye's passive that creates damage countdowns from a crit.  It seems to display components of the outcome before it resolves the effects on the board.  If all of HE's CDs would kill the wave it immediately flips their images first and then shows the CDs resolving and applying their damage to wrong characters.

    • "The Full Spectrum"
    Is Dr. Spectrum too obvious of a guess, here?
    It would be a great guess, but they rarely introduce a 4 or 5 star character that was not in or about to be in a movie or in a TV series.  I am going to guess Typhoid Mary.  She has multiple personalities and they sometimes intentionally do fake Dazzler hints while trying to hint some other character at the same time.

    You know Iron Man has a new suit we got a second 5 star Cap why not a second 5 star Iron Man

    Gerry Anderson’s Captain Scarlet was a member of Spectrum. So it must be 4* Scarlet Witch.
    Scarlet Witch deserves 5* treatment, she has enough power to destroy infinity stones after all

    Considering the number of clues that appear to point to Dazzler, but clearly aren't Dazzler. She better be coming for the 5th anniversary.

    I could see them giving us that magic nanobot IW suit.

    Team selection in events is now well weird.  Moving from Dat Required Character to The Big Enchilada and replacing Punisher with a 5* meant a lot of scrolling.  You always start off with your roster centred on the character in the middle position.
    :edit: After uploading Android, it's taken 5 minutes so far to get to 29% on Loading.  Then burst update to 53, slow creep, burst, what the heck is it loading?  New supports?
