    Wow, I was having so much fun with MPQ before finding this forum and realizing I really shouldn’t. 😜
    I played for six months without sneak peeks, without anything resembling a long-term strategy, really. I was just happy to open the tokens with my kids. 
    And then, I’m happy to have thet tidbits of info this forum provides, I’m happy Boss Events are back, I’m happy I found an active alliance, I’m happy for all the covid freebies and in general I’m quite happy with how the game is balanced.
    Just wanted to bring in some positive comments, but please, feel free to ignore. 😉
    You realise of course how ludicrous your post is, no? As if finding the forum should change how much you enjoy anything? "Oh no, I used to enjoy Ice cream until I learned you could put sprinkles on top".

    You may need to go join the Red Hot Chilli Peppers Under the Bridge...
    These are terrific metaphors, man. You must be proud.

    So it's not Cage's PVP next, it's a Defenders PVP. All versions of the 4 defenders are powered-up. Both 3 and 4 Luke Cages in the progression rewards. BRB shards, Hellcat and Squirrel Girl in the placement rewards.

    Edit: Also despite the fact that the preview does not have the season flag on it I expect it is a season event since there are still 3 and 1/2 days left in the season.

    I am pretty certain that all these new PVPs they have run in-season have been missing the season banner when the preview appeared.

    Yup, I remember the same thing happened with the new FF pvp, it didn't show the season banner until the event opened.

    That lengthy post on "Welcome to SHIELD" must've taken a whole two weeks. We're now 2 PVE events behind. I'm now expecting the next update, if it ever releases, to be the past two events and the next one.

    If it is like last month, we need to wait for June

    Why publish Sneak Peek and not update it.
    It is frustrating and rude to keep us waiting.

    Added the new boost list to my post for Meet Rocket and Groot, but I'll post it new as well:

    4*s: Gamora, Peggy Carter, Vulture, Kingpin, The Hulk (The Main Event) 

    3*s: Beast, Iron Fist, Kamala Khan, Squirrel Girl, Gambit

    2*s: Hawkeye, Moonstone

    1*s: Storm, Venom

    Today's Dat Required Character is Sam Wilson (Falcon) instead of Thor. Any chance the updated list has been posted somewhere?

    Am I the only one that finds it a bit strange that we have to wait a few days past the actual '4* release day' for the Welcome to SHIELD event?  That seems to dim the excitement a bit.

    Perhaps we don't get a Team-Up node where we can try out a champion level Hellcat in this new version..

    TBF, S.H.I.E.L.D. is pretty notorious for taking a while before announcing themselves to others.

    And after you think all is well, the screen flashes "Hail Hydra" and they take all your ISO.

    UPCOMING DEADPOOL'S DAILIES

    Sweet (5/22/20) *New Update*
    3-Star Required: Falcon, Daken, Sentry, Storm, She-Hulk
    Crash of the Titans: Thanos
    On deck: Juggernaut

    It seems they've shuffled the order for Dat Required character for some reason. It had been running the same predictable pattern for years now.

    I'm not sure if it was entirely based on release order, but I know the 6 newest 3*s (Dr. Strange, Thanos, Hawkguy, Elektra, Gambit, Angel) were inserted into the rotation in that order at least.

    Yes , they’ve shuffled it because for the first time in 4 years I began personally tracking it 3 weeks ago.

    Yeah, I was watching the clock yesterday and getting excited to play it then got a feeling in my gut to check the Hellcat thread and saw that it didn't even start for a few more days. Lame.

    Because it gives Hellcat and Friends tokens rather than Meet Rocket and Groot tokens, right? They can't give tokens for a vault that is not there yet.

    Edit: just re-read the post and it just says release vault so that might be wrong. Hope it is for and friends which I count as an improvement.
