    There’s no hurry, not even worth opening tokens. It will be about 10 years before she’s in pvp again. Got one cover and now will naturally let her get to 266. I bet she and a dupe gets there before she’s featured in pvp again!

    Again I don’t get why they do this. Why not release her, have a ton of different vaults to pull from to get her and then have her pvp. In slice 1 I was done with the event with the loaner before I could even add to her covers. Now why care?

    The point was always to make her available to new rosters, not players like us in 4/5* land.  Some of those newer rosters in 3* land and under will cover her and use her in their PvP/PvE events if she is any good.

    I have her champed by using the chained rewards offers. She's my new third in shield sim. Love having Shang Chi at 5/5/5, plus having the yellow to place tiles just adds to the puzzling I love Shang Chi for.

    As I said before SC is a freaking monster with her. I'm quickly getting used to play with a 5/5/4, all the red and purple with a serious combo damage, so I need to champ her.

    The difference between 3 and 5 in Blue is only +90 match damage at L450.  Is that really that much more match damage to be noticeable and worth carrying a 3*? Presumably you are only doing this in pick-3 PvE and not in pick-2 PvP.

    I'd bring Bolt or Odin for that, but I realize not everybody has them.

    It may be fast but it will be beaten like a dead horse.  What SCL are you playing in Sim?  That team just begs to be taken down on defense.

    It's not like his SCL matters, since you can see everyone in SSIM.

    Can you explain the synergy there?  I'm not seeing it

    Not all. Emma swaps 4 tiles which is the ice in the cake.

    I guess... but her health is too small to sustain any real 5* team for very long.  

    There are better 5* options for a third

    She makes the most sense in Balance of Power where everyone is L550.

    In the meanwhile, players using this team are essentially creating grills for everyone else so we should be thankful (I know I will be when my 4* land L350ish teams sees this team).

    Oh, interesting. I wonder why she's specifically excluded from those tokens. @IceIX

    Answering questions asked from elsewhere:
    - What happens if 2+ abilities are the same lowest level? This ability prioritizes 1->2->3. So a 0/2/2 character would be a 0/3/2 instead.
    - Does Ability 1 and 2 stack? No, ability 1 applies to teammates.
    - Does Ability 1 still apply when Ability 2 is active? For 3-Star, no. For 5-Star, yes.
    After some testing on Discord, the first answer seems incorrect. 1/0/1 Okoye becomes 1/0/4. Same with 1/1/1 Xforce Worlverine - yellow is boosted. My 0/1/1 Polaris was 0/1/4. 

    Edit: Seems it is alphabetical by power name?
