    Psy's black is her best ability and it always costs 6, unlike red. You might want to switch between yours and loaner depending if yours needs to heal. 2*s don't have good active black skills (Moonstone at 17 black, Bullseye at some similar **** price), so Psy could at least help fill out your oBW/Ares rainbow.

    Oh MMR

    How I loathe thee

    got myself up above 300 points, looking to head near enough to 500 tonight.
    Now the game will only offer me the same 6 names, no matter how much iso i spend skipping. Only one of the names has more points than me, he's worth about 26 points. The rest all have totals less than me, and I'm not actively seeking retal-fodder, thanks.

    D3 keep secretly tweaking their MMR algorithms, and I'll admit some recent changes had their benefits - I quite like the idea of tanking not working. However, I thought the days of 'extremely limited MMR pooling' were beyond us. It's just sad. I don't want to keep hitting skip in a vain attempt to find one of the thousands of players that I know have more points than I do. I just want to be offered reasonable matches.

    If that Retal is me volos, u can hit at anytime or save it for later, I won't retal ya! I'm not going to shield either, no big deal for me.

    I think I hit u early on to get up to 300 for the token (couldn't remember if i had seen u on the forums, sry!), just looking for top 100 or top 50 finish, so u can wait till i get more points later on if u prefer to make the Retal worth more...

    francky are you climbing right now? You came up in my Jungle node and I only fight there for now.

    Francky, I will hit you, pardon me hitting you constantly icon_redface.gif


    Folks, whatever funbalance comes to Mags, try to get his covers, with a good starting board he can do all sorts of broken fun stuff. I would say that's pretty close to the way match-3 was meant to play (sweet dreams!).

    Starting board:

    End of the match:

    Note enemy AP - I tried to go on without enemy matching once on purpose.

    If there was real PvP in this game, I think I would break a window with my iPad if I had to face Mags like that.

    lol. I never thought of it that way. Spidey and C.mags would have been nerfed back in November if there were true PvP.

    Heck, they probably never would've even passed play testing.

    You tell me. For all the talk about Mags being sucktacular on defense (barring purple), he almost drove me crazy in a today's LR. Enemy Mags had red at 5 and kept getting more and more red thanks to enemy Hood and most ridiculous cascades ever. I think I had to sit through 100 Magnetized Projectiles in a single match D:

    Because people on the forums do well.

    If you want a broader variety of opponents, don't run up the ladder in an event and stay low where the rewards suck but the playerbase is broader.

    Usually when I get in an MMR pocket I assume it's because most people at that MMR are shielded but I was frequently hitting pockets in the lightning rounds this week. Really game? I'm only "near" five people out of the 200,000 unshielded people in the event?

    Lol sounds like my Mags. You did attack me 4 times, Mag projectile is pretty tilting to watch.

    Yeah, I see the same people over and over in LRs. The one thing I know will stay constant in this mercurial game

    I would absolutely love to get a couple Mags covers from this event. But judging from how the last few PvP events have gone for me, I know there is about 0% chance of me even getting one cover. icon_e_sad.gif

    And can we change the name of the 300 point progress reward tokens to Bagman Tokens? Because that's all that ever comes out of them.

    Nope. This one just gave HT icon_e_biggrin.gif

    It's a matter of faith. If You believe it's gonna be a 3*, it is a 3* (sometimes). If You are sure it's gonna be another bagman, it's bagman indeed.

    I got Torch from the last one icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I've been in a gloriously bagman-free zone for over a week now (I think I may have won one from a Heavy Metal match) - it's all been Ares, Moonstone and CStorm.

    Sidenote: apparently 600 points doesn't count as "under the radar" for this one... I got slammed overnight for almost half my points icon_e_sad.gif

    I hate you both... so much. icon_razz.gif

    Well, guess I have to have more faith. I think it's gotten to the point that the only 2* characters I don't have covers for are Bagman and MHawkeye. And 1 Black Bullseye cover. I need more 3* covers!

    If anyone sees me in their bracket, please give me points. icon_razz.gif

    I always believe it's going to be Daredevil, but it never turns out to be a 3*. It's usually Moonstone, CStorm, or 2* Cap.

    Maybe it's been too long since I've sacrificed a goat in full view of my phone.
