Hey, I haven't posted anything here in a bit... but something told me to come back and post my pull results.

I like to make sure my pulls are public knowledge, in case the devs ever wonder what pull rates actually look like. ;)

Here it is...

    For a short minute I thought to myself Hmmm...Banner covers. Then I made 5 pulls. 5 four stars. So then I went back to hoarding.

    This is a really strong vault with 3 characters that are massively underrated.

    Adam is great and currently boosted, I got him champed already. I dunno whether Banner is quite good enough to throw the CP at - I need 4 covers and am wary about getting carried away and blowing what I have worked hard to save. I am still tempted. High Evolutionary confuses the hell out of me but there is time for him.

    Some may consider these characters underrated. I don't.

    This is an easy pass for me. My Banner and Adam can live at baby-champ status. And I doubt I'll champ HEvo at all.

    I pulled to get banner to 13 covers. Ended up with my warlock at 9 covers (he’s been slow to collect covers) and HiEvo at 4 covers +shards.

    I’ll collect HiEvo over the next couple of months and he’ll eventually reach 13 covers and wait until others are champed first. Is Adam really worth pulling for? I have more than enough CP to go after him, but I don’t see using him much unless he’s boosted.

    I pulled about 30 earlier, got 2 of each for hulk and Adam no HE

    That sounds like a solid vote for Adam. Who should he pair with?

    Okoye, Apocalypse, anybody who can boost his AoE. Emma might work better than either. You have to boost AP into the match to achieve turbo speed, but his AoE is bigger than Hulk's and almost as easy to activate.

    iHulk + Okoye/Apocalypse/Emma. The only characters who can stop or blunt that are Electro, Wanda, to a lesser extent Chasm.

    Everyone has suggested Okoye, but really that's difficult as he will always damage way above Okoye.

    Personally I like half Thor and Domino. Thor will generate plenty of yellow so you can heal, and you'll get black from the cascades.

    Don't overlook the "Adam needs packs" bit.
    We're talking a pack every match for low level Adams, otherwise he does pitiful damage, even with Okoye.

    Yeah, I agree with this. I'd rather Hulkoye and a Thanos or a Strange or someone like that. Adam just does too much self-harm to not be a revive character.

    Hey, thanks for posting this, PiM.
    I'm not in the 5* territory but your videos have always been interesting to see at least what you get.

    I need covers for all 3 so this was an easy store for me to pull in.

    I went 6/40 getting 2 Banner, 3 Adams and 1 HE.

    I now have Banner covered, Adam at 10 covers (including shards)

    Since I'm done with all the Classics, I just pulled for a head-start on HEvo

    16 pulls
    2 Adams
    2 HEvos

    Good enough for me...

    I do like Banner, but got him at 465 and Warlock at 452 plus plenty of LLs waiting for Hevo already.

    I pulled to get some HEvo covers and some levels on Banner, who I really like when boosted. Adam I hardly ever use, even during this boost week I haven’t used him once. The results:

    7/36
    0 Banner
    1 HEvo
    6 Adam

    RNGesus has spoken…

    I only needed Hevo but it's been such a long time since I pulled for anything that I just did 10. Got 3 5s - 1 of each, so happy with that.

    Just realized, Adam Warlock+ High Evolutionary could be a very silly combo. Adam does AoE damage based on his health...
