    Just saw the rewards for Galactus; I feel like they’ve been giving out 4* Doc Ock rewards like it’s going out style. Is he like super popular or something?
    It's his last hurrah as one of the latest 4* essentials before Gertrude kicks him to the curb on April 7th  :D

    Next to Polaris he is now my 2nd most used 4* in any PvE node using minions . Only takes 2 yellow or blue matches to completely shut down their spam tiles.

    There's no Space Season banner on Bags to Riches PVP.  If it's not part of Space Season I won't be able to hit 10000 pts.

    I think they are making up for the fact that in December when he was first released he wasn't in a lot of events because they were doing a lot of other things at that time (short seasons, over Xmas we get SpiderHam and Taskmaster etc) so he missed out on a season reward plus some event rewards.

    The 4* in the prior PvE is always the progression reward in the next PvE so having him as the progression in Galactus is normal. It's getting 3 4* Torch covers that surprised me because I was expecting and hoping we'd get one of the newer 4*s.

    Trying something new again, this time I've got the semi-placeholder items in for the "unknown" regions later this month. You can tell the timings aren't complete since they're totally regular in cadence. Still! More info on the calendar than before and now it's not just "Here be dragons".

    Thoughts?

    But 4Ock has been the 4E in the last two Boss Events. Thus only awarding us the single progression cover rather than the usual haul.

    @IceIX
    Webbed Wonder (placement) and Thick as Thieves (progression) should be Moon Knight, right? Not Crystal.

    Whoops, you're correct! That's what I get for transcribing some of this stuff at around midnight. Fixed!

    New 5* required 3 days after their special store release? This doesn't seem right. 
    With new 5s I often almost have them in shards before they're required & I'm able to recruit when I get the last shards from placement rewards.

    @IceIX Who is the essential 5* for Thick as Thieves?

    Huge thank you for the update on entire April. The four stars enhanced in the final week are going to be enjoyable.

    We'll know in another 12 hour time or so. Today is Saturday.

    That may be, but I asked 4 days ago when it was not a Saturday.
    I also contacted support who basically said that whats on here "should" be correct, but couldn't confirm that it was correct.

    @IceIX That surely can’t be right that 5* Moon Knight is required in the next PVE?  Usually, the new character is not required until they enter the regular token pools.

    Crystal is the essential. I must have screwed up my placement rewards because I would have 500 5* shards before they are required. However, I'm still short of 75.

    Edit: I think it must be the recent alliance event that screwed up everything that follows.

    We are the same , I won’t have the Crystal for TAT. No draws for her.

    @IceIX There's still an error on Thick As Thieves. The event preview shows Crystal as the 5* essential, not Oscar Issac. We get Moony shards for the progression rewards. The rest looked good to go.

    They doubled up the order of the 3 latest. Crystal should have been the third one in this next grouping of events but she’s first instead. It’s happened a handful of times over the past 2 years, based on a quick review of my spreadsheet.
