HoundofShadow said: Here are the top 3 responses towards this event, pre-firefighting from the dev:1) threatening to quit the game for good2) threatening to stop spending money3) call this event p2w --> I lol'ed at this. Some 5* players are losing even when they have at least one of those 5* champed. Even if you have the money to champ all 5* (Yelena/OMD/GG), it doesn't guarantee a win. Other responses:I can finish scl 9/10 pves; therefore, I should be able to complete this event.For those who love Heroic events, this is the top 1 anti-Heroic response:1) Why am I not allowed to use my hard-earned (either via cash or in-game rewards) characters? This is what happens when players only know how to Polaris/BRB or Hulkoye for the past two years and calling other non-meta characters a 'Skip'. You throw them a challenge, take away their meta teams and you get this.How is the dev supposed to create challenging and unique events with these kinds of threats?
TheEyeDoctorsWife said: Black Bolt stating “giving out 1 or 2 extra covers a week isn’t going to break the game “. 70 5* at 13 covers is 910 covers at present to champ them all. I already have over 60% in about almost 2 years in playing 5 tier SCL 10. If they had done this idea and I was getting 2 extra covers a week (200 plus extra covers in my case) I would literally be close to champing every 5 star in the game and would accomplish it by this year’s end. (4 years total playing time ). I’m sure there are players playing over 8 years that still don’t have that. PvP would be chaos if every player had a complete champed roster in 4 years . It would just be mirror godboosts every week. So yes , increasing 5* would break the game as even casual players would become vastly more competitive. I know a rising tide raises all ships but the disparity in players rosters would be much more minimized.

Agent Venom has been my MVP so far and Scorpion was always a great 4*. The nerf to Garg helps as well. I suspect when Garg starts to get some much bigger health pools the pain is gonna hit hard but the last run of this event really was far too easy so good on the Devs for trying something different.I still hate the Dark Avengers though...

HoundofShadow said:-- Releases Heroic Gargantos boss event --New dev: let's see if what they said is true...Put yourself in the shoe of the dev. If you're always constantly under threats and verbal assaults for trying new challenging things, would you be encouraged to use the same old tried and tested boring formula or risk getting threatened?However, there's a way out of this. Simply allow players to choose normal and insane mode of Heroic. If they hit insane mode, ask them three times if they are sure.
HoundofShadow said: I won't be surprised if all these hate and vulgarities hurled at the dev (look at reddit) are the reasons why the ex-dev continued to roll out boring non-timed pves. Fight for Wakanda (timed), Places of Power boss event, Introduction..., Shield Training and Puzzle Ops... I noticed that the only kind of challenges these players welcome are those easily solved by high school students: Collect 20 ap of x colours, create 20 strike tiles etc.This is probably one of the conversations they had during the handover:Ex-dev: You know, players alway complain about how stale pves are, and how they finishes boss events in 36-48 hours with nothing left to do. When we create something new and challenging, these are the common responses: vulgarities and threats.New dev: Ok, interesting. we'll keep this in mind. -- Releases Heroic Gargantos boss event --New dev: let's see if what they said is true...Put yourself in the shoe of the dev.
