Oh here's a red match.Onslaught: CASCADE TIME!Me: Seriously? Fine, OML will heal so it's ok. Black match.Onslaught: CASCADE TIME!Me: Son of a TALOS I hate this game. Stupid RNG. Just wait until Prof X is boosted...

I can imagine it, I saw a silver surfer 670 and he has 265k health.
HoundofShadow said: I just checked. 4* players will see a minimum level of 368 to 400+ boosted 5* characters. It's fortunate those 5* hitpoint still look weak (~30k). In the coming days where stronger 5* are boosted, I think 3* or 4* players will be greatly affected, especially when it's boosting popular 5*.Match-damage wise, it's approximately 800-1k per match-3. A pick 2 of full health non boosted baby champed 4* will probably need to use healthpacks more often. I think you will see higher level because I remember your 4* levels are pretty high as well.This solidifies the fact that MMR does not take boosting into account.

HoundofShadow said: What levels are your top 5 characters? An 80k to 100k HP suggest that MMR are throwing closed to champed 5* at you, which is unusual, unless you are referring to retal nodes.If you find these old batch of useless 5* brutal, I think you will probably tap out when 2018/2019 released characters get boosted. If 4* players have problems in PvP, 2* and 3* players will be affected even greatly. If there are a ton of new players complaining, I won't be surprised if they stop the boost afte a few PvP events.
entrailbucket said: I can confirm that Wanda dies in about 2 turns to boosted match damage.The best part about this is how it absolutely ruins the plans of long-term planners. Someone who saved, hoarded, and planned for years to get a lvl550 Okoye getting owned by the absolute worst of the trash tier, randomly boosted 120 levels...I wish I could bottle it. The best thing about MPQ has always been that once you think you've got it all figured out, it changes.
entrailbucket said: This event is probably the most fun I've had in 7 years of playing MPQ. With lvl672 OML and lvl668 Phoenix, I'm *trivially* beating everything, including the "meta" characters at 550. I downed a lvl550 Okoye on the first turn with one cascade. I've won multiple fights against 500+ teams before they were able to move the board. Most fights I don't even have to cast a power, I just kill everyone with match damage. I've done about 90 matches so far and haven't used a health pack yet.If this keeps up it completely changes the game.

More than the typical event even. You sure you're not using health packs?
Daredevil217 said: You definitely broke MMR and hit my team of…loaner Quakelevel 273 Polarislevel 74 Grocketand did NOT dump (I think more than once)I just looked at your roster and you have 16 5*s at level 500+. I’m a “champ em all” collector for sure, so I guess this change benefits me. But I also understand that not everyone has the choice to champ everyone and so being more selective about who to chase makes a ton of sense.It’s like some rich person laughing at the misfortune of someone below the poverty line trying to figure out how to make their paycheck stretch… just not a good look. But, glad you’re having fun. I do hope this boost list stays. If so, it might shake up my character rankings that tend to be more PVP-focused anyways; as some characters will benefit from major boosts over others.
