JSP869 said: If one 4* is converted to a 5* feeder every 6 weeks and if they add a new 5* every 6 weeks, they're always going to be behind the 8-ball with 8-9 5*s not having a feeder.

Other than a few deviations, they've been pretty regularly releasing one 4*-5* feeder per season. That's one every four weeks, not eight. If they adhered to this strictly, it means they will catch up to all the 5*s, but it will take them a long tinykitty time. They've been giving us extras, heck for the 10 year anniversary they gave us 5 extra, so it seems like they may catch up soonish.
What I'm really curious about is that the last two 5* releases have gotten feeders before they went into tokens (Wasp and Loki.) If they continue to do this, it will definitely alleviate the mad scramble to get at least one cover for the new guy so we can play the restricted node. I'm very interested to see if they'll do this for Kitty....

I find that unlikely since they usually use a fourstar that's awarded in the PvE that's running as a feeder. Emma was just awarded in PvE, it's unlikely we will see her again so soon. But I could be wrong.
Also, it's been a very mixed bag of recent fourstars and older fourstars as feeders. Just looking at the 10th anniversary celebrations, Winter Soldier and War Machine is by no definition "newer". MEHulk is almost a year old now. Shuri, Valkyrie and Iron Spiderman were all released this year, so I can agree they are "newer", but they were a bit more vintage than Emma is at this Point.
Personally, I Think Nightcrawler would make a pretty sweet feeder for Kitty. They have worked together a lot (Excalibur!), and he is a more recent release than Professor X. In fact, he is just a bit older than MEHulk...
I guess we will see next week if there is any announcement.
