    Looking for 3 things for the next Sneak Peek update.
    1. Story that starts on Sunday.
    2. Versus that starts on Sunday
    3. Crash that follows Sam Wilson, since the 5* H4H offer will expire and the preview H4H offer will vanish since we have a Boss up.
    #3 probably too much to hope for since the next DPD rotation won’t start until Wednesday, but since Sam was never listed here, maybe we can get a jump? Possibly include Tuesday’s Versus as well.

    . Yeah, all of the above, except for 3... What? Is Sam Wilson the next one then? On the list is still winter soldier. And mohawk was today, so yeah all of DDQ needs an update i think.

    Crash isnt daily essential, but the 1 in 5 days node for LT.

    And she'll keep getting featured until you like her.

    If Emma doesn't end up as a feeder for Kitty, I'm just going to assume that the entire D3 staff is under mind control from the White Queen herself. Just make her the reward for every PVP and PVE event until the next anniversary, why stop now?!?

    Emma and kitty actually partner nicely. Emma removing specials with her repeater and kitty putting down the pain with her own special tile overwriter/mini-nuke. Kitty also buffing Emma's own specials.

    Emma feeding kitty would be a good match just for the synergy they have.

    My Emma is only one cover away from champ status. I just need another yellow or black and she is good to go. I also feel she is a bit underrated.

    So no Kitty feeder and now Cable will be an essential and no feeder for him.  Not even a week after he was in tokens. Any update on this?  @Brigby. Are they not going to give feeders for the new 5* when they are released like the did for 2 and had massive positive feedback from the player base.

    Emma is horrible. Please choose other characters for rewards. Please don’t make her the Kitty Pryde feeder. Nightcrawler is a more logical choice. They had that whole Excalibur thing together. You should check it out.

    Emma Frost PvE rewards again?
    Seriously? 
    Feels like every 3rd PvE is Emma.
    I wouldn't mind if she was any good.
    But she's right at the bottom of the pile.

    Emma Frost and Kitty both debuted in the same issue, Emma tried to recruit Kitty to her school (instead of to the Xavier Institute), the Hellfire Club kidnapped some X-Men, and Kitty helped some other X-Men rescue them. Their origins in Marvel Comics are intertwined, and they've hated each other for almost 40 years.

    Emma Frost is a perfectly logical choice for a Kitty feeder.

    Agreed that Nightcrawler SHOULD be Kitty's feeder, which is why I'm worried that he will not be chosen.

    One simple way they could improve Emma Frost would be to make her repeater abilities also fire on the move you cast them.  The power set seems fine: she's just too slow for the repeaters to justify their cost in most matches.

    Regardless, this is not how they pick feeders. It is the other way around, they have a 4-star they want to be a feeder then they pick who they should feed.

    They do realize that there are 75 4* characters total, right? And that they can pick other characters besides the absolute latest ones save for an older one here and there? If this is their solution to keep new 4s from being diluted then I'd rather see them go to a semi-vaulted system where the latest 12 are in tokens and then each player can choose another 4-8 extra ones to also be included and you would be able to swap them out really easily like bonus heroes.
