    I’m actually thinking/guessing it’s more because it’s the first run and not a change for all boss events.

    Thanks for putting up the Melinda May PVP later than usual to join. I think accidentally  joined a slice that won't be ready to play till 2 am.(No I will not be waking up at 2am to play PVP 🤣) Luckly its Melinda May so its not a barn burner

    Melinda May looked like she's aged in her hp store, compared to the one in roster page.

    Melinda is my 2nd most used 4*.  In PvE pick 3 she stun locks everything in 3 to 4 turns . I use Okoye/May and any blue damage primary. ( Ultron, Polaris, Heimdall)

    I saw someone say that too. Probably not today though given the time already. Going into a holiday weekend too so likely not Monday either.

    Generally the next character gets a "Spoiler Free" the Friday before their release then their information released the Monday/Tuesday after. Every now and then that'll flip up due to outside influences (marketing needs or holds, tie-ins, etc), but that's the general idea. So you should be getting the next character Spoiler Free next Friday.

    Huh. I understand why there's a rerun of the Gargantos boss event in a couple weeks (new boss events always seem to rerun shortly after).
    But why the rerun of the 5* Wolverine (Samurai Daken) pvp?

    I think it's because it's Pride Month.  All the pvp's are non-straight characters.  I think ...

    Doesn't really explain the rerun, though. They could just as well throw a Loki pvp in there instead or something.

    Placeholder that didn't get changed. It's really still kinda placeholder but now updated to Psylocke.

    For those who track pve 5* essential, has it always been 3 latest followed by 3 classic or 3 new followed by 2 classics? I thought it was the latter but the next 3 require Classic characters? Or is it due to new 5* release that turned it to a 3L/3C run?

    I don’t track it but I do know the pattern from memory has been 3 latest , 2 classic , since I’ve been playing SCL 10 . Possibly some nerd with a spreadsheet can prove me wrong with better documentation

    Someone called?  B)
    • LLLCC occurred 61 times
    • LLLCCC 12 times
    • LLCC 4 times
    • LLC 2 times
    • LCCC, LC, LCC, LLLCCCCC, LLLLCC each 1 time
    The last events showed a LLLCC - LLLCC - LLLCCC -- LLLCCC pattern

    Note: my algorithm has a problem somewhere becauce Professor X was featured when he was new.

    You beat me to it. There’s definitely not a “set” pattern, but they seem to have 2 or 3 classics depending on need, delays, boss events, and the like.

    Thanks for the mad info.

    Gargantos is listed as the boss event on June 23. Are Gargantos covers the progression and alliance rewards again?
