    Now its listed^^ And it's the 2* Kra-Ven.

    Edit, Kra-Vens first skill, is exactly the same like the Taskmaster Sword, it think its also the same rating. I think we need some support doing this against foes/villans, at the same Rating(looking at you Korg) or not just against Dark-Avangers(Quinjet).

    That's kind of steep, but considering this is the first time supports have ever been directly purchasable, it does make sense...

    Got it on my 2nd pull -- thanks for actually adding this and not just having it be a non-existent fakeout! I am That Person who loves using his champed Kraven ^_^

    I think the April Fools Joke is Brigby posting "Limited Cover Swaps" in big bold letters. 

    I immediately thought we were getting a limited time 5* cover swaps. Now I see the April Fools joke's on us  :o

    Really? Hers is one of the few I like more than the Skottie Young alternate.

    Why does this create friendly strikes and not enemy strikes? Kraven would almost certainly benefit more from the latter. Great support theme though. Were it not Villains Only, this support would have Bishop written all over it.

    I got a 1* Stepford Cuckoos from my free one, took a second draw and got a 2* Shuri's Lab, both new to me. Not really loving the cost of these things, but figured what heck.

    So, for 525 HP you have:

    92% odds for 1☆ or 2☆
    7% for 3☆
    1.4% for 4☆
    0.4% for 5☆

    I mean, I suppose it still is better than the huge possiblity from the support circuit vault that you get no supports at all, but still...  Yikes that's pricey.

    525hp is a relative number.  HP is fast becoming a “Post-“ resource.  If I hadn’t dropped 40khp on slots,  I would have given this a lot of thought.  Too bad it’s not a full time store.  I would happily spend iso and hp for support tokens and the risk drops

    What I’d really like to see is a DA-Ban support:

    DA-Ban is a crazy cool shut-down play that drops the NO-MO on Dark Avengers in Story Events!
    • Perk 1
      • Replaces Dark Avengers with new opponents.
    • Perk 3
      • Replaces tedious Stories (like The Hunt) with freshened new versions and goalsets.
    • Perk 5
      • Opens an entire new category of Story Events with no placement incentives — so adults with families and jobs can get some QofL back.
    • 4* Synergy Perk
      • Turns any 4* into a feeder for any 5* of player’s choice at levels 280, 300, 320, 340, 350, and 360.

    I think that's in today's R175 update notes.  Or maybe that was just a pleasant dream.....
