    Does anyone have a list of who's still excluded? Would the size of that list seem to indicate there's one more batch or two still pending?

    They said three more, including this one not long ago somewhere around here.

    Venom1 star is MIA also.

    Worried about a 5star juggs doing all the damage.

    It **is **annoying that we still won't have full access to everyone in Standard tokens. Guess I'll still hoard, at least after I pull all the Juggs covers I need.

    Covering Yelena is going to be tough, too, since she's only an award from PVP...

    I wish they would bin off this idea of limited characters, it is just so out of date these days, even moreso since the introduction of ascended characters.

    I think there’s just one more batch currently planned. I don’t know what happens with new characters (ascended immediately? Later?). But this batch has 15 3s or about 1/4 of the tier, and 37 4s, between 1/5 and 1/4 of the tier. Suggesting one more big batch to come.

    In terms of Yelena, IceIX on the Discord suggested she might enter tokens and not remain limited.

    What about BAGMAN

    I told you, you'll get your money at the end of the month.

    So have my money by the end of the week and there won't be problem.
    What?

    What are Yelena and Juggs’ third powers going to be?

    I wonder if Juggernaut will get a passive damage booster or match damage resistance to match his 4* incarnation.

    I have a ton out of this batch, and they are ones I’m hyper excited to see. Nightcrawler and Professor X, Gamora, as well as Carol. Lockjaw may be the surprise hit of this batch with Polaris and Gamora. Negasonic, Thanos… man I’m hype for this group. Going to be some really interesting new 5* tools here.

    I hope Jugg's third power is taking a break from repeatedly headbutting me when I have to fight him.

    Yelena barely has a first or second power, so I hope she gets something nifty.

    Juggs is one of the spammiest enemies in the game!

    Yelena’s crit production is pretty interesting actually. Curious what else she might do on a third power.

    New characters are supposed to be Ascendable immediately. I think it was when Dr. Bong was released, they said all future characters were intended to be Ascendable at launch.

    Hmm...not at those AP costs though (unless I am thinking of somebody else, I thought she was super expensive).

    Yeah, Jugg's dude we get it, you like to ram things, pick a second thing to do instead!

    Currently the cost is 13 black….

    But hey, it’s a bargain compared to 19 purple for the other existing power.

    Yelena is like the Puzzle Gauntlet in a character.

    Does this also mean they are gonna un-limit her availability? No idea outside of buying one how you get her ascended in good time otherwise. Maybe that could be her third power - going into Standards. Again assuming all this hasn't happened and I didn't notice (entirely possible)

    She is not in Standards currently. Maybe she will be added?

    Ingame you can always see who is pullable from a token (assuming you have one, or its purchasable) by clicking the little “i”.

    19 purple! She should be a Milestone quest! :D:D:D It has been so long since I even had her rostered I don't even know what that power does for that!

    That's what I thought but I also figured I might have just been drunk and completely not noticed. Crikey Yelena - what did you do to deserve this?

    New power "I'm the Juggernaut!"

    For 3 blue ap Juggernaut punches his opponent to death.
