    January 22nd means all the hoarders can open their tokens today and will have a solid 4 days to apply those batch 4 covers before they expire.

    If anyone has an itch.

    The itch is strong, but I'm still hodling... :D

    I thought the same but an alliance mate reminded me that Venom’s 3rd power isn’t in tokens yet; so if you want to make sure you can get a few of those, it’s still better to wait.

    Very true.

    Will the other limited characters be following Yelena into normal availability as well?

    But Venom is only in standards. I know a lot of folks just started hoarding everything full stop.

    Is our lord and savior Bagman still going to be limited? I’m a few covers away from two max champs and I’m on the fence about making him more accessible vs keeping him as the special little man that he is.

    There's zero chance I'd risk my thousands of tokens going early with this lot. It would be just my luck to be sat there with 6000+ covers dying on the line and them saying sorry we hit a snag, going to be 4 more weeks. I will open them only after every one else has been the crash test dummy for me and everything works.

    51 and counting for me on standard, definitely want to open but holding strong

    51K?

    I'm at 11K worth of Elite/Heroic/Mighty plus another 1K of standard.

    What is the point of hoarding elite, heroic and mighty tokens?

    Genuine question - how long has it taken to hoard that many? I’m assuming it’s from long before ascension was a concept? What is the rationale behind not opening tokens? Isn’t the whole point of the game to open covers for more rewards/characters etc?

    Absolutely no attack on choice of playing the game, it’s a game at the end of the day, just very curious as to what the motivation is there?

    I understand hoarding latest tokens waiting for the new 5* to roll in but not the lesser tokens?

    Imagine another card like Polaris hitting the game. back then people hoarded for her and broke the hoard instantly when she could be favourited.

    Imagine this NOW with ascension.... Imagine heaving Polaris + strong card ascended to whatever the very day...

    For those hoarding standards for the purpose of pulling once Venom gets his third power, I’d imagine they’ll have another ascension vault that’ll have that power in it that you can reset to get them all to ascend him. That’s how i got all of Juggs and Yelena’s third powers last time. I don’t remember the cost for it but it wasn’t too substantial.

    1200 or 1800 to buy it out, I forget.
    1200 I think.

    It seems to me that the “new feature rewarding hoarding” phase will be done for years at this point. You can always hoard to cover a 4 or a set of 5s or a new 3 as you choose.

    But I can’t imagine Champ 3.0 ever happening - at least not for another 5+ years - and support shards are fully implemented with any revision seeming unlikely for a long time considering how they do things around here. Also the support tokens are few and far between tha attempting to hoard them absolutely will freeze your progress.

    I've bee tracking my token pulls since 2017 and have opened 15K Standard tokens. Having 50K+ standard would take a lot of work and hording.

    Dude, you do not have 51k standard tokens surely? I have known you for 40 years and I know you are crazy but I never thought you were **** squirrel crazy?!?!? This must be an I only have 51 tokens surely...

    And the last champions 2.0 vault had only the new power for yelena and juggs which I hope is the case with Venom. I got 7 Venoms ready to go.

    I'm still hoarding support tokens. Most of my supports that are used are 4* or greater. I don't need that depth of dilution to try and pull another 4* I need. I might as well wait until there are more I want and pull then. When there's 20 in a vault each season and only one I want, I'm not battling that level of RNG at this point.

    Case in point.
