    All valid ideas above...

    ...I did Cyclops and Magik -- worked well.  But I also brought Gamora, hoping to throw on a stun because I figured Hulkbuster would be sitting there eating the reds up.  Never got the chance to try it.  

    Is Hulkbuster stunnable here?  It doesn't say that he's NOT in the description.

    I brought hulkbuster, nightcrawler,and cyclops thinking I'd fire off cyc yellow, or hb blue or nightcrawler purple once there was enough red. In the end the enemy HB fired it's blue and won the match for me.

    I brought Magik/Nightcrawler/Scorpion(3/3/3 lvl 70, just wanted a purple battery lol). I took one punch to the face, grew a little purple in the background, fired off Bamf! and took the win

    It did the same to me, after it hit me with a nuke of course.

    Aye, this was pretty fun to figure out what might work and go for it. We need more "always available" event type content even if the rewards become distinctly underwhelming;as someone who fully embraces pvp I've still got downtime here and there (beat my whole queue & don't want to doubletap for instance), I can't imagine how little the pve onlys actually have to do.

    I haven't checked this thread since the event started, because I didn't want to read about other people's teams before I tried the nodes myself.

    Feedback after finishing the event: Can we have more, please? So many possibilities to explore here, with different characters to set up different puzzles and different themes too.

    Agreed, I loved it.  Please more of that.

    I too really enjoyed the event. I even liked the small, silly story and the holiday artwork. If it runs again I hope it gets expanded with at least twice as many puzzle nodes!

    I'd love to see this in a Gauntlet style pve with ever increasing challenges and difficulty

    Agreed.  I'd like more too.

    I missed the last day!  I don't remember the last time I missed a part of a PvE event thing.  And of ALL things, it was one that I was having fun with!!  :tongue:

    sigh.  I'd like another go, please.  :)

    You didn’t miss much. It was like the Kaecillius match where we could only damage them by matching strike tiles, but against Daken, Elektra and Dazzler.
    Okay, cool.  Thanks!  

    ...that sounds a bit easier than K-Silly...?  I mean, matching greens to force Strikes on the board?  Not to mention, just bringing our own K-Silly-Killers (the KSKs!).

    I can see how Dazzler fits in there, too.  Kinda neat.  

    Not to sound greedy, but what was the reward?

    awwww.... a 4* cover and a vault token.  oh well.  Sounds pretty decent for, what, a 5 day event (5 nodes)?

    Next time, Gadget, next time......

    The least they could do is leave the event up a day or two after the last node goes live so we don't have to scramble to get the last day done. The new nodes went live at noon eastern standard time (17:00 GMT) so the last node was up for less than 24 hours (unless I actually missed a whole day there somewhere). I'm sure I had checked it before 17:00 GMT yesterday and the new node wasn't there and I got busy and forgot to check back later in the day. It kind of sucks that I missed out on the 4* HT but I guess it is what it is.
