I did not really compete in this mainly because in week 1 my 5* guardians were not buffed. Bring a 5* player this completely eliminated PVP to achieve quests and at CL10 I still go for speed and not having the guardians buffed just made it not worth it. I started trying them the 2nd week, but didn’t get past the blue matches in tier 1 mainly because my 5* didn’t need blue.
I like the concept and would like them to do more quests like this but some tweaks should be made
Didn't complete as I had 4 Tier 4 quests left with only 2 open (make 100 purple matches and give 10 TUs), don't need any iso and spending 1K of HP to recall my TUs didn't seem like a good trade for 2 Mighty tokens.
Would be happy to do this again if all quests can be seen in advance and more than a few would be open at the same time.
I enjoyed the challenge of using different characters to complete some of the rounds. However I could also have voted for did not enjoy as the final round was way too long and a big grind
I’d be happy to do it again if they remove the requirement to ask people for team ups and make the requirement easier to follow
It was 2 days in before I realised that destroy meant literally destroy it!!
My love of this game comes from not having to grind away to make 100 matches (for example). I love this game because I can hit PVE for clearance, hit up PVP to get to certain level, then call it a day.
Not opposed to the idea, and if people want to grind, more power to them. Just not for me.
Always could use improvement but with a bit of management it was doable. The give use TU's are the ones you have little influence on and took the most time to complete. But over al cleared them with time to spare
Had a lot of fun. Used puzzle gauntlet early so I was in tier 3 by the halfway mark and the ISO was a big help. I liked the gating and pacing.
Couldn't be arsed to complete it, although I could've.
Went and played something else instead.
Enjoy having this sort of thing though, would just like it too be more fun, and for loaners to be available for accounts that don't have the required toons.
I'm missing an option for "I enjoyed it despite the grind".
The first option implies no problem with the grind and the others imply no enjoyment. I completed it and overall really liked it. I liked the quests, I loved playing around with different teams for different objectives, I loved the iso, etc, buuuut the grind was tedious. The "make x colored matches" in particular really overstayed their welcome.
I'd love it if something like this came back, provided it was a little less grindy.
I got very lucky in the end, when the HEvo release store opened I managed to get a purple Adam Warlock cover on my third pull so was able to finish firing that power 50 times with a few hours left to spare, thus completing tier 4 after all. I enjoyed thinking about different team compositions and learning what certain gotg characters even did, and I very much love all the iso I was able to get. Would love to have more quests like this, but with a few improvements. My suggestions would be:
1) better communication. While I get that this was left to us to explore and find out for ourselves, not knowing upfront how many tiers etc sent a lot of people panicking I think. All that panic led to a lot of grinding which is never fun and has left a sad taste.
2) better timing for release. This was released into the void: between pvp seasons when there was only 1 pvp open at a time and during a boss event where all the nodes lock after 1 completion. Other than the puzzle ops there was nowhere else to achieve anything for days! Again this left people panic-grinding and then being unhappy about it.
3) have themed store. While there had been a few themed offers available for purchase, there was a lot of required character quests, and not a lot of ways to obtain said characters if you didn't have them, but wanted to. Why not make a modified legendary store with only Gotg characters in it at both 4* and 5* level? For 15 or maybe 20 cp pulls. Anyone wanting a chance to build their fave gotg characters could have had a better chance to do so, or obtain missing ones. It would have been better odds then the over diluted classics store, but with 5-6 of the 5*s, harder than the latest legends or release stores. If the guardians took over MPQ why not take over a legendary store too?
4) have designated playground. Having puzzle ops run parallel was a good thing, but having a Gotg themed set of replayable nodes would have been even better. One that ran the full 12 days of the quest. Maybe something like "12 days of Xmas" or "cinema showdown". This would also have provided opportunity for loaner characters, even just 1/1/1 ones, so that noone need feel left out. Nothing worse than feeling left out celebrations or events. But loaners also give a taste of characters to aim for and I'd think help with all those purchases. In-game resource or RL $£€.
Anyway, these are just a few of my thoughts. Thanks for reading.
Anyone else 'finished' quests after the event ended?
When it ended I was doing the Tier 4 'make 100 purple matches' quest.
Today, I saw I had a completed quest when I was doing my PvE clear and so I looked and suddenly the 'event' tab was there and it showed I had completed the make 100 purple matches quest. So I claimed the reward and then the tab disappeared.

Yes, I got the 6M damage quest not long after it officially finished. I noticed it said I had ~2 days to claim so maybe they added the buffer to claim last minute achievements, but that also opened the window for completing quests after the fact.
A lot of milestones were too grindy, but I think this type of event should be tied up to each season. Stretch it out so it’s more natural, but you can still focus on using certain characters/powers.
I finished the 400 matches with a Guardian on your team a day after closure. The vault is still open, so I guess there was a bit of a tail to the event.
Can somebody send the full list of tasks for all the four tiers it seems the task rewards are still coming out but the event button is not there

See pages 2-4 for screenshots of the tasks.
It's positive because there are extra rewards and you are forced to use another characters. It's negative because of these many factors:

Page 1 has that info. You are in the middle of 'make 100 matches of X color'. Not sure if you are on #8 or completed #8 but here's number 9. Number 8 was also a color one.
