    9/14 Cosmic Chaos *NEW*
    • Featuring: Heimdall, Misty Knight, Wolverine (Patch), Storm (Classic)
    • Placement Rewards: Daredevil (Matt Murdock), Thor (Goddess), She-Hulk, Wolverine (Astonishing)
    A few times lately, since they switched to the 5/4/5/4 release schedule, the 5E was not the progression reward. When IHulk was required while in Latest, the next 2 releases were the featured progression rewards. Heimdall should be following the same system. You'll get his shards, but someone else will be the 5E.

    That is not what it says... it says Heimdall featured as 5* in CC. The shard are in TAT.

    If it is a typo, I would like to see it corrected. I hope they meant Daken 5* of course.

    The pattern is most of the times 3 Latest and 2 Vintage. We had 2 Vintage with Ock and Star Lord and now it had to be three Latest with Apocalypse, Killmonger... and Onslaught who will probably give out the progression shards for Heimdall.

    Event is now showing in game. SamDaken is the required 5* and Heimdall is just getting shards in progression, as many thought. We’ll just need to keep this in mind for future posts if they continue with this minimal info format.

    A bit annoying having to use SamDaken and not get shards for him (particularly since you can get most of the way to a full cover on what they gave you already,) but it's a hell of a lot better than Heimdall.

    And Yelena before that, and iHulk before that, and Havok before that...

    Anyone noticing a pattern?

    it seem most likely newer 5* will appear about 4 times, +/- 1.  That's about 2 covers or 42 pulls for specific character.

    Strange how Apoc was only in 3 times but he was in LL for an extra two weeks.  Onslaught and Killmonger will certainly be in at least once more.

    Apocalypse was featured 5 times but in two events, other characters were awarded as progression rewards (Wolverine and Killmonger). Onslaught was featured 3 times and awarded 4 times.

    I also show The Hulk (Immortal) 5 times, but maybe I'm just really bad at record keeping:

    05/07/2020 Thick as Thieves

    Sort of lost in this abbreviated format but we are in an extended off-season as confirmed by Lakestone.

    There are no 5* shards in alliance events. It was posted but was a falsehood.
