    I'm excited for this week's boost as it will be first time since I champed Iceman. He is not a character I find easy to play so I am hoping this is a chance to figure him out somewhat.
    He actually plays well with Daredevil who is also boosted because of the semi-passive stun he has. Otherwise the easy team for him is Thor/Okoye or Apocalyose and then try to spam his green. You can swap Thor out for immortal hulk if you’re feeling lucky. You may like apocalypse better than Okoye because they aren’t competing for Team Up. Make sure to match away his yellow countdowns when they appear if you can. There used to be (and may still be) be a bug where running him with professor x will allow him to reduce damage even if he doesn’t have the team up in the bank. I think it’s working as designed also that if there are no available yellow tiles to place his CD he will still reduce the damage without creating one also, so Valkyrie could potentially help you create that situation.

    Sooo! Odin boosted 2 weeks in a row plus his one event? Seems a little much no? Typo maybe?

    Think there might be an error though as is saying Kamala both for personal & Alliance?

    That is how the last boss event was. One Garg cover as the top reward in each.

    Right OK that makes sense.

    One could argue that Odin was more of a second stringer for the first week, outside of his event. The vast majority of teams that I have come across have been using Iceman and Prof X. I think he'll have more of a presence for this next boost week though.

    I think it's probably because of pride month

    Ah, I guess that could be it. I was really confused, because only a handful of them are repeating and the others aren't, but the ones repeating do fit into theme. Was kinda hoping for a copy&paste error, lol. Will make for a miserable boosting list for me next week, but I'll deal.

    New 5* Clue: Broken Up

    The clue is vague because it could mean a physical or non-physical thing.

    Valkyrie, Thoress, Gorr, Korg for Thor: Love and Thunder tie-ins.

    Thoress was broken up into pieces by Thanos' snap.
    Gorr's family was "broken up".
    It's the shape of Valkyrie's new weapon
    And I don't know about Korg.

    Random not close guesses for the new 5: Jigsaw, Multiple Man, Proteus, Molecule Man, and finally Animated Wolverine looking at that picture.

    Ugh. Is there a reason why Eddie Brock is a reward yet again? He was already the placement reward twice and progression reward in PVP in the past week or so. Why not give us an opportunity to earn a different 4-star character?

    Does anyone know if I will be able to achieve full progression in the Peer into Madness Boss event if I am missing Samurai Daken and Yelena Belova?

    I'm still fairly new to MPQ, and haven't done many Boss events. I was lucky to have all the required characters in the previous Boss event, but not this time around. So is there a way to get full individual progression rewards without the required 5-star heroes?
