    Thanks pasa - was mostly thinking that, just wanted confirmation. I'll just monitor to make sure I stay top 10. Much less stressful that way anyway.

    There's Thanos2 and Thanos4, so I guess there's Thanos and Thanos3 as well?

    They could be like the high school senior prank...grease up three pigs and number the pigs 1, 2, and 4 then let em loose in the school!

    I'm calling you out on having watched at least the first episode of 90210...and admitting to having done the same...

    Thanos, are you Thanos2 in game? Or are there two Thanos?

    As per my sig, i'm Thanos2 in game. Someone beat me to the punch. I have yet to run across any of the other imposters, although, i guess i'm an imposter too being #2....grumble grumble icon_mad.gif

    I can't say that I've watched 90210...apparently there is a new one these days. I can't say that we did that prank our senior year either...we had a police escort and were led into the school in groups of 10. It was beyond stupid...didn't even go to a bad school, or anything close.

    As for the event, cool to see two other forumites in the bracket and doing very well. I just my 1000 so I am done, good luck!
  • Well, looks like I have to quit playing PvP events. I decided to wait until close to the end to actually start this, and I've only played two games so far. It's already giving me ridiculous matches that are either with low 20s at most, or games against 141 teams. dubya tee eff.
  • Shielded at 1102 if I am in anybody's queue. First right now but all I care about is top 10.

    How were you not touched on the way up? I couldn't even get above 800 without getting hit for -40s

    Hey toxicadam, I was shielded so icon_razz.gif

    Hope you enjoyed those 40 pts. You were this close to hurting my feelings

    My top 2 suddenly dropped out of top 10 board. Shield expired or sandboxed? Hmmmmmm

    Not that the game doesn't always do that to you (and me) anyways, but late in the event all the juiciest teams are shielded up for dear life so there's slim pickings
  • Wow. I seriously hate PvP right now. EVERY match I'm getting is usually a Black Panther in the 90s or 100s, OBW, and then a maxed 3* character. Why the hell am I only getting these people? They're all worth either in the 40s or high teens.

    Is this their way of saying if I don't spend lots of money on the game, I should give up trying to make very much progress? Really discouraging when it feels like that. icon_e_sad.gif

    Current matches it's giving me as options are: 134 BP/115 Patch/140 Cap. 158 BP/85 Thor/128 Mags. 65 BP, 85 OBW/128 Punisher. And all of the match-ups it's giving me are like those.

    Seems like if I try to start early, I just end up constantly getting hit and still never have a chance, thanks to not having any high leveled 3*s.

    At least now I know to not even waste any time on the Sentry event since I won't have any chance in it. icon_e_sad.gif

    I must have shielded in the nick of time. The hits are coming heavily now.

    It helps that my 5/3/5 Panther is maxed. Seeing maxed Hood and Lazy Thor/Patch in there probably caused a bit of hesitation too.

    I used the same lineups. Guess I'm in some type of MMR hell then where I show up on nodes much more often than you

    Has the AI been switch to godmode?

    I got smashed for almost 200 points and as I tried to regain some ground I lost three games in a row to uber-cascades. There's really not a lot you can do when you cop a Sunder, Rampage and Rage of the Panther in one turn all off one cascade that never ends. Punny was dead before I ever got a chance to do anything icon_eek.gif

    So I'm now down around 400 points, ranked somewhere near 150 with no hope of improving. At least PVE is fun... right?
  • Do you face maxed 2*s or maxed 3*s from the start? Whatever switch they flipped matches me with 85s until the 900 mark.
  • I could escape the zombie horde at 900 if there weren't so many jerk faces with 400-500 points that are somehow able to attack me in bunches.


    Laborious, man.

    I just made a jump to get over 900 and re-shielded. Just in time, too, because then I got notified that my shield protected me from losses of 46, 47, 36, 44, 41, and 45. I also got a win for 5 whole points (thank you, Patch). All high-point losses; it's like I only became visible to low-point teams when I unshielded.

    I for some reason keep seeing the title of this thread as "How does it feel to be burned?" every time I check this forum.
    Even though I know it's not. I think my brain is broken.
  • 900 points... must be nice. icon_rolleyes.gif

    Someone yell at me to not bother trying to buy packs and that they're just a waste of money before I consider it any more.
