    Legion is a great char to use to fire lots of cheap powers in any color.

    IIRC, there was another time when they counted powers fired, and said it only counted things that would trigger Dr. Strange's Yellow passive power.

    Nice to see an in-game announcement, for this and many other things like the aapi vault etc. Well done! It makes trying to explain to alliance mates that much easier.

    sounds awfully like a (bad) ad.

    I have done my part for the day, but it is quite gruelling switching to active teams after years of passives!

    Does Thanos Court Death count as firing a power? Not much we can do about avoiding firing it for next few days (well apart from not play and uh die I guess)

    Winfinite in Shield. This seems to be the best option. Spam them Juggs!

    I just attacked an enemy team which included Crystal, using the wifinite team (BRB, Polaris, Juggs). I spent several minutes repeatedly firing juggs green with the enemy team healing back all the damage I inflicted. So I've made my contribution this morning, you're all welcome :smile:

    Edit: It was indeed a chrome extension blocking it

    The progress page is completely blank (at least for me). Is this something with chrome, GDPR (not being in the US), or is there somewhere else I can check? The resolved link I end up at is "https://mixpanel.com/public/J4g8k5ZMy9Drx3bA1JMPwc"

    I am not in US and using Chrome and I was able to access here and on your link, so maybe you have something blocking it?

    111.5 million so far

    117.5 million. I am convinced this includes passives, at least some of them. A banner fires when Juggernaut uses Collateral, right? So that power got fired even without actual use of AP. So if that applies to Court Death too then we could make fairly decent progress on this in Thanos PvP. If.

    It could certainly just be actives. Remember you are a tiny minority. Look at the characters in the 1* and 2* tiers -- they all rely on active powers.

    I am confused as to what that means or what the relevance is? My question is - does a banner appearing mean that a power has "fired", regardless of how you got that banner to appear?

    You said you were convinced it includes passives, presumably because the number is so high? I was pointing out that at lower tiers the game is much more active-power-driven.

    I don't know how they're counting powers fired either, but it's totally possible that that number includes only active powers. A LOT of people play this game.

    Also we have a current GOTG event specifically incentive to using powers. Far more than usual.

    Passives have never counted as a power "firing". I don't know why this is so confusing. Enemy passives dont trigger Dr Strange's Flames of the Faultline. Friendly passives do not trigger Human Torch's Burning Persistence. This is not new terminology.

    How do i know my firing is counting? Is there any in game information?

    Is there correct terminology for when Juggernaut's collateral banner pops up or Polaris does her special tile duplication? Not a snarky question or anything I generally don't know the answer to this? If that is not a power firing then what is the corrected description that should be used?

    Firing powers that count to the goal: use AP.
    Not counting: everything else.

    Is there an official confirmation of that somewhere? I am not looking to say this isn't the case by the way but I am genuinely interested. So passives don't trigger Dr. Strange yellow power but what do we call it when that yellow power is actually used? What is the correct term to describe that?
