    Black Widow's movie has finally been released. So, they are doing it again. The next 4* will be released on 15 July. So, it's not related to the new 4*.

    Could we have Red Guardian instead of Quicksilver in pvp on the 11th? Would stay with the movie theme. Then Red Hulk/Thunderbolt Ross after that. Lines up nicely, don't ya think? Really just want to see 3*s go away. They are even less useful in this age of boosted 5s.

    Wouldn't mind a Taskmaster PvP either.

    Quicksilver is one of the few 3*s who can affect 5* play turning TU frozen.
    Another one could be loki.

    Batroc? Isn't he classed as a pirate as well as a mercenary?

    Taskmaster pvp will be sweet too. He has a revolving stun (Billy Club) and two-enemy stuns (Skull Cracker and Do as Peggy Say).

    There is a line in Cap America 2 along this path spoken about him - something about him being a "French Pirate" and the joke is no he isn't, he is Algerian

    Two 5* covers are the in Star and Stripe vault. Total cost to clear all vault is 14,100. It looks good.

    Sadly one of them is for Civil War Cap who is useless. If only it was LumberCap.
    Still, I opened 2 10 packs and got 1 of the 250 shards for each which means Cap is up to 12 covers (whatever) and Hawkeye is up to 8. I also got quite a few 4* covers and a duplicate Carol Corp support.
    Hoping the special puzzle event in a few days awards some more tokens to the vault.

    P.S. Forgot to mention that when they gave 400 shards of Peggy the other day on her 5 year anniversary it made me realize how long ago she was released (and how long I've been playing). I was just entering 4* land then and she was one of the early 4* that were part of the 'latest 12' that let me fully cover her, Carol, Medusa etc and move into 4* land. Now, 5 years later with that free cover I have her at L335 so I've gotten 78 covers for her in 5 years time or ~15 a year so it's about 2 more years to max champ her!

    Is the Stars and Stripes vault a one-off or a repeater? I haven't been in the game long enough to recognize all the repeaters. Trying to make a hoard vs redeem decision. Not even sure where I got credit for one token for that vault, which makes me think it's a one-time promo.

    Assuming its a late 4th July celebration vault? So I'd guess in a year's time

    It's a one-off vault. They gave everyone a free token to the vault which is how you got yours. Maybe you clicked past the message of them giving it out. I just got my token and message about it a couple hours ago. Whenever you get the free token like that it's a limited one-off vault.

    You mean Taskmaster PvE? Aka Operation Silk?

    No, PvP. They ran it once or twice last year.

    Yes noticed that too but can't remember what the reward structure was as it has been a while. Anyway, a nice extra.

    Two nodes open per day. You get to choose one each day.
    Four (maybe five?) days total.
    Last day you get to pick between two 4* covers.
