Is the Cable Perk an AoE damage?

If the enemy team makes a match three, and all three tiles are charged tiles, do they do triple damage?

Can't be worse than an unripe Yaro root.

I won a 3 star baby. Think I will give it to Rogue.

So when are all these new supports going into the regular support store and when will it be easier to get a level 4 or 5 support??

A human shield is a human shield, even if it is a small one

I hate when you get support tokens and then don't get the 4x odds but get one of the ones you don't want. What a bummer!

I expected Cable's support to be More Pouches.

Interesting that Taskmaster Sword is still available in the limited store.
Not that it matters, because it's same old insanely limited/expensive way to even get a random shot at it or the new Baby Summers.

I've been playing a few other mobile games lately and I'm amazed that Demi thinks this type of equipment/support should be so rare and expensive.  I really don't understand the logic, especially since Supports have been a thing long enough for them to collect the data to make adjustments.  I understand they made the RISO adjustment, but they continue to make obtaining Supports such a non-event.  And I'm not even talking about the 5* Supports, I'm talking about getting any new support at all - it's simply not worth even considering let alone planning for as it requires beyond ridiculous RNG luck or whaling.  And that's just sad.

It’s great that they keep bringing these out but until they make the tokens more freely available I’ll never get too excited about them as despite being at the beginning of 5* game play I do not have a bottomless pit of money to plough into a mobile game and any time I have got a token in the last 6 months it’s always a duplicate 

heres a tip for you , have a vault with just support tokens and you can charge 500-1000 HP for it , otherwise the vaults are a huge waste of time 

Felonius

Yeah, no.  Several times now I've tried buying from the vaults to get a particular New Support.  I've literally spent $100s of dollars.  MOST EVER TIME I just get a bunch of useless 2* covers.  On the WAY TOO RARE times I do actually get Support Tokens, I have never once got whatever the New Support that I'm actually trying to get.  It's usually some a L1 or L2 common support, and even most often it's one I already have (so just more RISO).  

TRYING TO GET SUPPORTS IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!

P.S. Not complaining about spending money, per se.  I can afford it, THAT'S not the problem.  The problem is I don't get what I feel is a worthy return or any enjoyment when I do spent the money.  Only disappointment and frustration.  So guess what?  No more spending money on Supports, at least not until the system changes.

@Brigby If you could... please pass along to the developers how hard it is for players to be enthused about a support 99% of us can't get for a character 99% of us won't use for a while. The layers of RNG one has to go through for one (unreasonably) priced vault is unfathomably unkind. It's truly mind-boggling how difficult it is to enjoy a feature to this game that the developers keep pushing as a big part of the game.

In every other mobile game where a feature like Supports are present (an equipment mechanic of sorts) they tell you exactly which node to find it and with a bit of grinding it can be obtained through normal game play. But in MPQ, these things are walled off to anyone not willing to spend hundreds of dollars. Possibly THOUSANDS. No game is worth that.

But MPQ keeps pushing these things as new and exciting, while all of us players just shrug and ignore them - not by choice, but because we have no reasonable avenues to obtain them.

The entire situation involving Support availability is absolutely ridiculous and the developers should be ashamed that this situation exists.

Hi @Dormammu. Thanks for your feedback! Rest assured, the acquisition rate of Supports is definitely something we've discussed with the team before, and something they're currently evaluating to see how it can be improved.

I unfortunately don't have any additional information to provide, but once I do, I'll be sure to update everyone on the topic.

I mean... it's at least one more pouch, right?

Granted, although, the support doesn't have to be like an in-battle support, right? (The steel baby carrier says otherwise, I realize)

They ask me why I'm bringin'
A baby into battle
That's really irresponsible
And getting them rattled

Hello,
  Ever since the support system came out. I was really not interested at all, it came off as a pay to win situation. I dont mind spending money for this game because I have done it in the past for HP, I've never ever considered purchasing any support tokens because the rates of getting the one you want is slim to zero. Now over time as the support come out and I started getting a little more excited about the new releases we are getting. The only thing is that it's impossible to get them without paying, we need a better method or grinding something out so we can get better supports. then the basic ones we normally get. (If it an alliance raid that gives out legendary support tokens)  If the odds of getting the one I actually want i wouldn't mind spending money , until we get a change in the support system, I'm just gonna get excited and at the same time get disappointed I'll never have a good supports. 

Thank you for listening and hopefully this goes on and taking the next step in right direction.

I've never bought anything from any of these vaults. Not even the 100 daily value one
