    Plus Maria is a nice 4* character. Good on offense, at best mediocre on defense.

    There is a new “event” tomorrow called A.I.M. H.I.G.H. Appears to be based around M.O.D.O.K. and looks like we might be getting some new minions? Only 4 progression rewards (iso and 100 shards for M.O.D.O.K.).

    I was thinking of a character whose fists are literally made of iron, or someone who rules with a iron fist. There's a ! before Iron Fist. That ! throws me off a little.
    From Wiki: Several computer languages use ! at the beginning of an expression to denote logical negation: e.g. !A means "the logical negation of A", also called "not A". This usage has spread to ordinary language (e.g. “!clue” means no-clue or clueless).

    So this clue would be interpreted as Not Iron Fist, so who is the anti-Iron Fist?
    If it's "not" Iron Fist, my guess would probably be Davos.  He wanted to become the Iron Fist, but Danny Rand was picked instead.  The comic version would make more sense than the one from the canceled Netflix series, but who knows?

    Yeah what is this about? Sounds like something you might want to post about and let people know it was coming.

    Actually the 3 Latest 4 are Skrull, Hellcat and Legion.  Why do they keep giving us the suicidal Maria Hill for the 7th time ?!

    Or maybe Not-Iron Fist but a different kind of metal fist...?

    Klaw!  Or Misty!  Or a new 4* Winter Soldier! (OK, probably not)  Or Grim Reaper!  Or 4* Cable!  or Garrison Kane/Weapon X!  Or Cyber!  Or one of the Reavers!  Or Spiral!  Or Razor Fist!

    I think that's the most recognizable ones.......

    According to this, Misty now has claws to go along with her iron arm...  Though it's probably going to be Klaw to go along with  Michael Jordan :D ...

    Legion won’t be in tokens for about more 3 weeks, so it’ll be Maria until then.

    I used to have trouble champing a 4* before it left latest rotation. Now it leaves around level 290 with the increase of 5s slowing down the rotating out of 4s

    @IceIX

    Is there a reason Onslaught is still boosted for Unstable Iso-8?  His 4 week new character boost should have ended when it started.

    14,100 HP for the entire vault seems worth it. The most interesting item in there got to be Peni Support.

    I’ve had a 3* version for a while. I thought I’d love it for Spider-Ham but he’s so rarely boosted I haven’t had a chance. I sometimes put it on Thor (or the 3rd wheel) when I’m running Thorkoye as the 5 Yellow head start is nice when it works, but occasionally you get a match 5 that heals Thor over half-health and then you have to whittle him down again without killing him (which Is hard to do if it’s an all goon battle). So overall, it’s okay, but not top tier.

    I was thinking along the line of IM40, Invisible Woman or Hellcat's repeater. Two turn invisibility at the start of the game can be really helpful.

    Exact same here. I had it on Iceman for Thorkoye/Ice (4* Atlantis on Thor, 3* RTF on Okoye). I ran into the same Thor healing issues you did.  But overall I found it more helpful than not in getting Okoye going early. 

    My Yaro root finally ripened at the beginning of the season (upgraded from 2 to 3), and I put that on Iceman now. So I’m forfeiting the possible yellow AP to double up on green.

    Thanks @Daredevil217 for sharing your supports. I do have the 3* RTF on Okoye but unfortunately my Atlantis is only a 2* version. As for Peni, I was lucky enough to also get a 3* Sanctum Sanctorum, which also gives the exact same 53.90% chance of 5 Yellow AP at start of battle, so I put my 3* Yaro on Thor and my 3* Sanctum Sanctorum on the 3rd wheel which also gives the benefit of 16% damage reduction in the event I match a color with said 3rd wheel. Unfortunately my 5* Iceman isn't usable so I can't offer any experience but would think you'd like the damage reduction on Icey in the event you do make a Green match (and Icey is tanking Green).

    Was very happy to get the Peni support with my free pull. After talking with my alliance, mine ended up on iHulk for the reasons Daredevil talked about.

    Really hope not. I want O-Red to be a five.
