Loaner Nodes - the New Normal

Recently the loaners have only been requiring the essential 4* character.

However, the last event (Unstable Iso-8) had a loaner node that didn't require you to pick any specific character.  You could just run any 3 characters.

I do think the loaner 4 is a good approach for newer people to be able to test them out and get a feel for how you could use them on your roster.

Anyway, not too long ago we were told that there might be some details coming and/or an official announcement and I'm curious if there's any more to the concept than what seems obvious.

Maybe @IceIX can provide some information....

    @bluewolf - I liked not having to fret about any required characters for that node, especially since it's easy to forget it's there. Jim Hammond Torch with Kitty and Groot is pretty unstoppable once he gets some wildfire on the board, though...

    And since you can bring in a loaner, you can just bring in your Thanos and it makes everything a snap.


    See what I did there? :)

    Any change to the yellow node is awesome.  I just hope this is here to stay.  This is one thing many include myself have been talking about for a long long time.

    To be clear, I LOVE the new loaner node design.  I was just wondering if there was going to be an official announcement of the design at some point and curious if there was any detail or plan we aren't aware of.
