    Apologize for the wait, but here's the rest of November for you all! First time doing this one in Markdown instead of HTML code, took a bit of work. So if you see formatting issues, lemme know!

    Chasm + Crystal boost: I'm expecting a 3-5 minutes mirror match. :D

    Hybrid Adoption... well, I bet it's not Shogo Lee but that's all I've got.

    @IceIX

    Thank you for the update! The previews are appreciated.

    Thanks for posting the update.

    Echoing what was said. PVE + Boss sucks. Doing it over Thanksgiving makes it suck more.

    Finally the Ultron boss event is back!! I never pulled the vault tokens I earned last go round and have had the dang post event vault just sitting there.

    I thought more options are always good? If your alliance is forcing you to play, then it's a private matter, isn't it?

    Not a fan of concurrent events!

    I'm also missing Riri5 in the PvE rewards. Shouldn't she be there instead of iShe-Hulk?

    Really appreciate the update including all events until the end of the month. I am wandering the ISO desert of 4-star land so it is helpful for me to know who is coming as featured in PVE/PVP so that I can direct my ISO accordingly. It can seem contentious to express opinions on these update threads, but there you go, that is how I feel about it. :)
    Since I was poring over the details provided, I noticed that the Doc Oc PVP has Gamora (Deadliest Woman) in progression rewards, but presumably this should be Gamora (Awesome Mix 2)..? It is a minor thing and I am happy to live with my assumption, but thought I would mention it.

    I don't remember the release order - is Emma or She Hulk leaving latest after Chasm?

    Why on earth would you plan a Boss event for four days of a major holiday in the US? Totally understand not everyone playing this game is US based but I have to imagine it is a majority. It couldn't have been done a bit earlier or later?

    Unfortunately they’re running both a PvE and a Boss event concurrently again. At least for me the PvE rewards aren’t important this time so I can skip it.
