    All-new thrilling content - Thick as Thieves 3* to 5* essential changes midway and *Elite token replacing standard token in SCL 9 5* node. 

    *SCL 7 is still giving Standard Token. What about SCL 8, anyone?
    It was still a Standard in SCL 8.

    So exhilarating

    I assume North Star is the all-new thrilling content for January, possibly $ini$t€r too. I think I remember getting one free token in January - for the code red vault if I remember correctly - but I’m struggling to remember a second for ‘free tokens’ plural. 
    You also got a free Heroic token for...they didn't call it Chinese New Year, but I think that was the unspoken reason.
    You mean the Chinese/Lunar New Year that was represented by a black woman and two white people (Okoye, Stark, and I think Capt Mohawk) :|

    They couldn't even give increased odds to the characters that would have celebrated (eg Jubilation, Cho, etc... )
    Cho is Korean isnt he? Is Jubilee really the only Chinese person in game? Surely not...

    The only other one is Wong. There aren't really that many prominent Chinese Marvel characters to begin with. The Mandarin, Shang Chi, Colleen Wing, Jimmy Woo, Xorn.

    Colleen Wing is originally Japanese in origin, not sure about the Netflix version.

    I know Chloe Bennet is part Chinese, so I guess a case could be made for Quake too, assuming that we have her version and not the comic one

    Yeah, Cho is Korean-American, but they celebrate Lunar New Year also.  Chloe Bennet is actually Chloe Wang, she changed her name because she thought it'd be easier getting hired with a non Chinese surname.  She sings in Chinese!!!

    Colleen Wing is Japanese in the comics.  

    Xorn always confused me, like he was a real character, then was Magneto, but then it turned out to be Mags clone Joseph, but then that was a fakeout for the real Xorn?!?!?!

    We can always count Hobo Fist, and 4* Black Widow (Scar Jo)  :D

    I remembered her as half Japanese and half Chinese, which is why I included her, but it appears that actual sources are vague. In the comics she definitely has a Japanese mother and grew up in Japan, but it's never said exactly where her dad is from (he's American, and studied Asian cultures, and I think people believe he's Chinese due to the last name, but that's not explicitly stated anywhere). Netflix appears to follow the same line (mother Japanese, father unknown, and the character speaks English and Japanese with limited knowledge of Mandarin from her childhood)

    Just kinda reinforces how few Chinese Marvel characters we have, doesn't it?

    Scar Jo does have extremely impressive acting range on the race front. Although she isn’t the first Marvel actor to act a race other than their own. Robert Downey Jr did it first.

    I’m not sure if Hobo Fist would count though. He has always been a blonde white guy, no matter his skill set
