Wait, how long is this event going to last? Because if this means it's going to run over Memorial Day weekend now, when i am going to be out of town, i'm going to be tinykitty annoyed!

This timing will allow Agents to settle down over the weekend with a relatively light Versus Tournament schedule and come in at the start of the next week with a more stable overall client. Then we can all start next week with the opportunity to see how the Dark Avengers and Norman Osborn deal with The Sentry and how S.H.I.E.L.D. reacts to the changing situation.

Or delete a character, I'm sure you're not using all your 2* and they never get their own events anyway. Even when they are featured and powered up they are rarely as strong as your best 3*.

Challenge Accepted! Honestly, if you think you can't win a PVE and a PVP simultaneously you might be not that hardcore...

Especially with all the mess that happened I'm not inclined to spent HP on anything. How about fixing some of the older heroes before releasing 3 new per week? That XF-Wolvy buff that was teased 4 ! months ago, yeah but I guess too many people have covers already. Also it's not just a single roster slot that comes with a new char. Also 170k ISO and 13 covers. Also there is a limited amount of events happening per week, what do you think happens as the amount of available rewards rises?

Releasing new heroes "works" from a business perspective. What happens when the amount of covers rises? People spend more money. Some people might quit the game but new players need to spend money to buy slots cause no one wants to sell new shiny covers. I don't like the issues that have been happening but it is important not to have crazy expectations. More characters means greater variety in PvP. I like seeing more team compositions than just one or two and it's finally starting to happen.

We're all wore out from the previous pve overlapping so many S1 events. And wore out as S1 has just been one incredibly long grind fest with insane brackets. 3. It's a holiday weekend coming up. Other than that, great, a new pve. But seriously, give us a chance to catch our breath a little between. Is that really too much to ask?
