Hi Everyone –

Here are the R214 Release Notes.

“Standing Strong for Mother”

Fright season is in full swing!

  • Trick your opponents and eliminate all the monsters with Elsa Bloodstone (Monster Hunter) in events going on now!
  • And partake in a few treats starting with spooktacular cover swaps available for a limited time, a free Halloween Vault Token on 10/29, and a free Blade (Daywalker) cover on 10/31!
  • And finally enjoy the return of your favorite Costumes who are dressed for the occasion in various special offers.

Additional Details:

  • Team-Ups are randomly assigned before battle like the way it functioned previously —empty Team-Up/Boosts slots are filled with a selection of team-ups that are randomized, instead of being the same team-ups every time.
  • Team-ups of characters that are Powered-Up in an event now correctly display with a Powered-Up crystal.
  • Event rules and pop-ups now correctly display Powered-Up characters in alphabetical order within each rarity.
  • Tightened up the selectable area in the Resources screen for Shard Offers when they were offscreen.

    “Standing Strong for Mother”



    My first thought was a playable Sentinel -- as created by the Master Mold / Mother Mold

    Could Mother be Mother Russia and we are getting Omega Red?

    Red Guardian? Black Widow was original delay until Novemer, we got 5* Yelena back in May when the original release date was so maybe Red Guardian was pushed and they don't want to push him again now that they've delayed the movie again.

    Machine Man? His ‘girlfriend’ is Jocasta and as we all know Jocasta was the loving mother of Oedipus.

    John Steed and Tara King? They were Avengers and worked for Mother.

    black widow was supposed to come out on November 6th.  With the movie getting pushed back again I see this being the 2nd tie in character to the black widow movie.

    Red Guardian was said to be a 4* at the time, which is why we got back to back 5*s that cycle, so if it is Red Guardian, that should mean it'll be back to back 4s?

    The Mother Russia guess seems a good one, if it isn't Red Guardian perhaps we are getting a 5* Colossus?

    I'm going out on a limb here and saying Man-Thing.

    Something flashed by very quickly in-game. I think I saw "Sorry for ?????". I hit the button too quickly because it appeared right after I finished a match. So, I couldn't catch what it is about.

    It could be a 4* which would not be terrible as it slows down the 5* releases.  Although they could upgrade Red Guardian to a 5*?  I don’t think it would be too hard to adjust the numbers for a 4* to a 5*.
