    I would be pragmatic about it, and suggest whichever of the "blank vs placeholder" options is going to be more "we got busy and haven't been able to update the thread" proof moving forward.

    Likely going to be a female character though, right? Namorita as a 5* before Namor would be pretty hilarious, and fitting the brand of the game of late lol

    Not with her show looming in the distance. If we get a 4* or 5* Kamala it'll be as a tie-in to that.

    I prefer placeholders since my mind would presume that nothing is going on if there isn't anything there.
    I don't have a particular preference but I think Godzillafan67 has a good point that at least with placeholders people won't assume nothing was going on. So I cast my vote for placeholders.

    My preference is to have placeholders, however I would rather have individual ones for PVE, like the PVP ones, than the single brown snake version.

    I was looking forward to another rework of old characters.

    Updated for today. Trying something new because of the Women's History Month schedule being posted already and putting all the ones on the calendar that have been announced. This makes PVE look "blank" though since a lot of that stuff isn't announced yet so I put placeholders. What do you all think? Placeholders with more future information, or blank space until they'd normally be announced? I see ups and downs to both.
    Much, much appreciate you all updating the boosted list.  And posting 2-3 weeks worth of buffs at a time is probably a great idea, it lets people get a better sense of planning ahead.

    Problem there is that there are a lot of giveaways for that kind of thing due to some events only (usually) being 3 days or 4 days. Or those solo events that run for a week or what have you. Meanwhile Versus events are pretty much the same length.

    Updated through the 16th-ish. New unannounced Solo Event coming!

    That’ll be something like Gwen-Priz or the 12-days I imagine that runs alongside the standard?

    What's the hint for the next 4* or is it going to be Black Knight?

    The next 4 star is a woman, as part of the women history month. maybe in april for Black Knight?

    They released 5* Colossus (March 11 2021) during Women's history month. So, I was thinking Black Knight might be possible.

    Didn't we just get Rhino and Electra for black history month?

    And I don't think there is a historical basis to assume each March character will be female.

    Is there another clue for the next character suggesting who the next 4* will be?

    I see why you're making that assumption, but it doesn't explicitly say they will be female.

    Very likely, but not actually stated, that I could see.

    Not being argumentative, just thought I missed something.

    Going off of that, there was a list of versus events for Black History Month and all of the events featured black characters, except for the two new characters, neither of whom were black.
