    She does permanent damage so maybe that is the reason? Stops Apoc regen.

    But if you’re one-shotting him does that matter?

    True. Uhm...she distracts him with her Rob Liefeld drawn leg allowing the rest of the team to jump him?

    Can I just say how much easier it is to kill Apoc with a champed 5*Magik. My alliance is only on Round 4 at the moment, but it's been a turn 1 kill several times already.

    @Scofie
    How? I don't mean that as snark. I am genuinely curious. Don't have her champed yet, but also but sure how to play her either. Thanks.

    @DAZ0273 has it right. She's boosted 70 levels above the other boosted 5s too so hits like a truck with permanent damage. I'm using her with Grockitty for early levels for an extra bit of early punch.

    Pretty much a two match-3 cascade does it in red/ black/ purple. Perm damage helps if there are no suitable cascades.

    So disappointed that the first one was apparently an error. My alliance never seems capable of getting far enough in these boss events for me to get enough points for worthwhile rewards. This one was an exception.

    My alliance is done with the team progression on the 2nd boss run! Thanks for the additional Kang covers!

    Yeah, I always hit max progression along with 1 or 2 others in my alliance, but we never get beyond round 6 for the group progression…
    Doesn’t help that we have maybe 7 inactive Commanders in the alliance.
    I presume there is no way to kick them??

    There sort of is through CS, but they have to have been innactive for 30+ days I believe. It'd honestly be easier to just take your actives over to a new Alliance.

    Well I believe they’ve all been inactive for several years, so wouldn’t be a problem 😂
    Will see about migrating the herd as you suggest though, thanks.

    My alliance should have a space open soon for anyone interested, just PM me. We usually have 12-15 get progress each boss. I am lucky that I am the only commander in my alliance. ;)

    Interesting boss apocalypse interaction: I let one of his countdowns kill iHulk, and he revives no problem. 5* Deadpool’s black ignores that health loss in its total damage, and just does whatever match damage he had done up to that point. I’m sure it’s as designed, just an interesting mechanical note that those CDs have a kill switch instead of doing infinite damage like Whales! Does.

    Odd, I was letting the countdown tile take out Jean Grey. Her health then showed up on Deadpool’s black and let me one shot Apocalypse, even on round eight.

    Yeah I think she “dies” differently than Hulk does under the hood maybe. Hulk should have added 16-20k to the total and it was still just 5k when I did it.

    Not sure if I’m going crazy or not, but did this event just end? Was it not slated to end tomorrow?

    Started a day earlier than usual.

    Never thought of that tactic I just normally gritty him and he's dead before that 1st countdown tile goes off

    I guess that’s what I get for not paying attention to the officical calendar.

    I just find it a bit of a let down for those in the general population that were under the illusion that more time lay before them.

    I mean, there's a timer on the event.

    The timer was displayed with the excess of time left, not accounting for the early end time.

    ? It said how many hours were left in the event, yeah.
    Like any timer in every event.
