    That's great. Let's hope more players here in this forum spend more. 

    50 healthpacks are a lot. The only way I'm going to buy them is if:

    1) I'm jumping into PvE SCL 10 as a 4* player or baby champed classic 5* player and I'm going to green check all nodes.

    2) a tough PvP where it's filled with boosted Juggernaut, R4G and Bishop/GotG (this specific team) or Thanos PvP.

    I will spend, by estimate, at least 30 healthpacks in the above scenario. The beginner support and 2000 red iso-8 are just some free gifts thrown in.  If you are feeling lucky, you might hope for a Rank 4 support. If you do get a helpful Rank 4 support, I think it's 2000HP well spent.

    What if you factor in the PVP shard reward 5*s? does that bring anything back inline?
    PVP 5* shards are simply alphabetical and are a separate reward schedule. 

    So, unfortunately no.

    Nice. Wish the Classic Legends rotation was as simple to figure out!
    Maybe they’re streamlining it too. I think the Crash of the Titan has been following the second names alphabetically. Star Lord is Awesome Mix vol 2. If the Classic 5* essential follows that too, then next would be Spider-Man (Back in Black).
    Nope. Next up is Ock according to the OP. 
    My guess is they are going release order, bringing 2019 last appearances. So my guess after doc ock is DD (Matt Murdock) then Thor (gladiator)

    That's the closest thing to a sensible pattern I've seen so far.

    Our classics so far have been Iron Man, Banner, Black Bolt, Hawkeye, Star-Lord, and now Doc Ock. The first three are in release order (if you assume First Avenger Cap comes before Iron Man, since they released at the same time), and so are the next three.

    The problem is that it skips Black Widow, Doctor Strange, and Black Panther. And right now we've got a small enough glimpse at the overall pattern that we don't know if the pattern you've noticed is coincidence, or deliberate.

    Either way, I'm making note to see if it continues in some way after Ock. The pattern isn't absolutely necessary, but being able to plan lets us exert control over RNG, which makes it easier to exist alongside a business model that doesn't want us to have that control (so we are encouraged to spend money).

    Any chance we will see an update in regards to Character rebalances, feeders or 5 star acquisition rates to name a short few.

    Legion as a featured champion... Can we skip him? Like forever. Geez, I hate his desing and being forced to use him is pain in the **** for me.

    While it IS the name of BRB's ship, I think IceIX is referring to general gossip.

    Broken= Totally destroys Gritty . 
    I never had beaten Gritty, now I intentionally hunt for it for easy wins . I guess 90% of players need a new defense team now.

    It's probably Bishop nerf since "Saved Team" has already been assumed to be mentioned in the RN. I guess Polaris is the Gritty counter to replace Bishop.

    this talk of Bishop being less or more deserving of a nerf, compared to Polaris... made me cringe.

    Because NOW I had the silly idea to include BOTH on ONE team, with BRB as the 3rd.

    "Thanks for the blue, Bishop!  Now, lets see... 4 turn stun for 10?  ...nah, how about the lesser stun for 7, but comes with Strikes?!  Oh wait... is that Apoc with his mutant buddies?  Can't stun him?  I guess I'll just CLASH OF THE WORTHY."

    I mean... THREE SOLID OPTIONS with Bishop just getting tapped a bit.  Yikes.  Nightmare fuel.
