It would be nice in newer players had a shot at completing 12 days of marvel.

Seriously, the only champed GotG characters I have are from 3 star land. I don't have a shot in hell of finishing day 3. So that's disappointing.

    Have you tried using Supports and/or boosts? Both can help you punch above your weight.

    I thought your opponents scaled so they would only be as powerful as your team?

    3star Gamora can be very dangerous, and so can r&g. They should be able to hold their own

    Well, in the Era of Dilution and ISO Debt, you could have some serious contenders in 4* land and still have specific characters undercovered or underleveled.

    Scaling is done at the event level, so the limits on one specific node would not adjust the scaling to the team you can field in that node.

    I'm having the same problem on my son's account and I know what I'm doing. I feel really bad for any newbies hoping to break through this node.
    I've boosted/supported everything I can, but baby-champ 3*s Gamora, R&G, and Starlord just aren't getting this done. Scaling helps, but it's still not even close.
    I might have to pull out a Whales TU just to keep going. (assuming that is allowed in this event?)
    Makes me worry what lies ahead for his roster in this event. Especially when he could really use another cover for both his Vulture (1/1/0) and his 4*R&G (2/1/2).
    His roster did fine in Globe-Trotting, but all he got for that was throw-away Mysterio and Fury covers.

    Day 4, and I guess I give up. In my year and a half playing, I've never felt more deflated.

    I can't beat day 3 or 4. I'm very bummed.

    Just saw the Day 4 line-up... Yeah, no point in my son trying again for Day 3.
    How can a 3* roster even play Day 4? They literally have two options: 2* Cap or 3* Cap. Can't even pick them both...

    I am sorry to hear low level players are being defeated.  

    I love this event.  I love that they have limited characters.   Not just “need one member”, but a whole crew.

    This isn't how it used to be, is it? You didn't used to need a 3-member team, right? That's awful that newer players are essentially locked out. This game is really only for veterans and whales at this point. I would never advise new people to try to get into this.

    Yes, prior years only required ONE member of the family to be used in the node.

    It looks to me that they are repeating the same affiliation families as prior years.

    The 2017 and 2018 lists were:
      • Avengers
      • X-Men
      • Agents of Shield
      • Guardians of the Galaxy
      • Inhumans
      • Defenders
      • Dark Avengers
      • Sinister Six
      • Champions
      • Spider-Man Family
      • Super Villains
      • Super Heroes
    The Champions and Inhumans ones may pose particular problems for new players.

    The nodes' wordings suggest that it's supposed to still only require ONE affiliated member. Likely a bug that can't be squashed until the next go round.

    Several of them do, really. Only one member of the Sinister Six is available to 3* players (oh, plus 1* Venom, I guess?), and there's functionally only one option for Spider-verse below 4* as well, since all three 1-3* characters with that tag are Peter Parker. Heck, given that Miles, AV, Spider-Woman, and Gwen are relatively old characters, there are probably a fair number of solidly 4* players who can't fill out a 4* team for that.

    Just like D3- put up an event we run annually just before we leave for vacation with a bug, then leave the office as we're flooded with angry complaints.

    Forget Champions, name any member of the Agents of SHIELD who isn't a 4-star...

    Day 4. I fall 3 time with a verry bad characters roster deal. My highter was a c3ptain near lvl170 and the others two 4* fury 150 and quake lvl100.  Destroyed like nothing with 4 and 5 match battery and quickly killed by wolwy and pupu every time.
    But i had  a Joker i dont wanted climbing immediately. Fuly covered this week. Worthy lvl 167.  Run 4 with this guy and killed one more time. lol
    I was a bit angry but it s funny to see how today nothing work for me. :s   Others day all the things work like nothing. o:)

    Run 5, I lvlup Worthy to 270 and finally win.... :p

    For me the sad thing is i m not sure i can complete 12 days Marvel for the shards/1cover limited SpiderHam. :'(


    I'm day 512 on this game.

    Good lord, I have every single character and I only had 8 to choose from for this event out of 201 characters and 3 of them were cap...

    I remember having to miss some of these nodes with a younger roster. It’s unfortunate, but it isn’t new.

    Is it so bad that people cannot complete an event? When I started out I had trouble in almost every node in DDQ, and even when I had been playing for quite a long time, there were still times I couldn't complete Crash of the Titans. And this event is run far more often than 12 Days of Marvel.

    Requiring the team affiliation for all three characters is new. The previous run only required the centre character to match the affiliation, as the wording within the event suggests. That meant that new players only needed one character from the affiliation and could pair them up with their best developed characters.
