    Nemek, why are you still retreating? I thought that stopped doing anything weeks ago. Unless you just want to give away some points; in which case, thanks for the +2.

    Make sure to spend those two points wisely!

    Who knows... 2 points can be the difference between 3 Daken covers and 2 covers. I hope I'm not in such a bracket though icon_e_smile.gif

    Just started.

    Fun fact: so many Spidey teams! icon_lol.gif I was even stunned for 1 turn! Twice!

    Not so fun fact: Hulk + Patch tactic not working. Hulk tanks only 1 colour.

    Third fact: so far no known nicknames in my bracket. First at >700. No one shielded.

    I don't get this tourney. At 700 all of a sudden I'm getting 2* Thor and OBWs, teams I haven't seen in 4 weeks.
    Up until 600 it was all 141s.
    Well I'll just sit pretty and see what happens overnight, it's way too early to push (unless you're Kakko, apparently).

    I'm at less than 300 points. Let's see, which node should I do:

    City against maxed OBW and Thor
    Lab against maxed OBW and Thor
    Forest against maxed OBW and Thor

    EDIT: Woo. Managed to have luck with the Forest one.

    Got my 300 Fresh Cut Pack! And god... Bagman. I hate Packs. icon_e_sad.gif

    I'm at 958 in my bracket now. My last shield ended, and I did 4 matches and a ton of skipping inbetween. Not one attack. Once I got to 958 though, all I had was 10,12 or 14 point matches. I skipped at least a dozen times easy...just got less and less. Wound up just throwing up another 3 hr shield for now.

    Have to say, this is the weirdest pvp I've played in over a month. Can't remember the last time I've played this lax, etc.

    A.R.E.S. just hit though a while after I shielded for 30 points. So, at least somebody is getting points, lol.

    Thats how my mmr has been for the last 2 pvps it doesn't make sense but I certainty welcome it. The bad thing is you still get nailed by the 141s down low but you can hit some 85s to get it back.

    Same for me, pretty easy bracket so far and easy targets. I'm confused what changed now again.

    To go along with everybody else, yeah...there's this really weird pocket of 85s I get in the 700-900 range for the last two PvPs. 141s everywhere below and above that.

    A.R.E.S. is Top of my Bracket @ 926 and shielded (after hitting you i guess?), and this was after he was @ 846 shielded earlier in the day....

    Next person in #2 is at 702 pts.... not me icon_evil.gif too rich for my blood!

    Good luck to you out there, people, I think this might be another bloodbath towards the end if you want Daken covers...

    At 1,009 and shielded for probably 8hrs. Anyone who has me in a node...have at it. Looks like people have been getting, on average, between 41 all the way up to 57 points off my shield.

    Crazy numbers. Damn glad I was shielded those times.

    Could be... just glad I was shielded at the time.

    This has definitely turned out to be one of the least stressful pvp's I've probably ever played. I'm not aiming for first or anything, just points for alliance and hopefully top 5.

    But, that weird pocket of 85's, etc...still there even once I crossed 1k. I could have done something like 20 10-12 point matches if I wanted to as that's all it kept giving me.

    Take those 85's and run with em until you've bled them dry! I had a large pocket of 85's during the Daken pvp. Since then, a wall of 141's. I gotta get my Hulk maxed so I can throw the bash brothers (Hulk and Lazy Thor) out there with one of my other 141's. With Spidey's nerf, stunlocking those teams into boredom wins won't work as well.

    Has something changed with the enemy's AI system? It seems much tougher than ever before.
    Maybe I just a some kind of slump but I can't even get up past 300 points in this thing. I'm losing way more matches than winning because of awful tile placement.
    It's disgraceful. My level 85 OBW/Ares lost to a level 60 OBW/Thor team and it wasn't even close. I wouldn't even imagine trying to fight level 100 guys the way things are going for me.

    Has anyone else noticed something similar in this event or am I going color-blind or something?

    So I had a shield up since 2 so I wouldn't lost points while I was out

    I noticed that the #10 has 106 points more than me

    Should I wait till my shield breaks than make my final push to make the top ten for two daken covers?

    Saw you in my bracket, top 10 with less than 500 points.
    #1 shielded at less than 800.

    I just hope this stays this way tomorrow when I decide to push.

    Well for those saying something feels likes it changed, almost does feel that way. i actually started this event expecting full level 141 teams per usual, but was suprised to see some level 70 2 stars so got my way up to 600 with ease. now its back to usual at 600 points tho icon_e_smile.gif
    and the leader has only 700 lol last weak that woulda been like 120th place ill go for top 5 again on this one
