    I'm not sure what's the worst part: Putting a rebalance on the line over a community challenge ; or making the main way to gain points for it tied to costumes, destroying the tradition of those being a cosmetic only thing :/

    Both feel so dire for the future of the game it overshadows my excitement for the stone.

    What is this, like the 357th time somebody has declared that the future of the game is doomed (tm)?

    One of these days, they’ll be right!

    I reckon we have at least another 100 to go!

    Well, if this years anniversary challenge is anything like last years, it will be less of a challenge and more of an easy mode victory that we will surpass without even trying and they are basically just giving us these rewards and making us feel like we accomplished something.

    Where do you see it tied to costumes? It's tied to cover swaps. Changing the covers for the characters is an easy way to mark which characters give the extra bonus points because this forum is always littered with people saying they have no idea which characters to use. Now it's easier to see.

    Just beat the zombie team in the Headpool event with Immortal Hulk, Pool5 (Spirit) and Samurai Daken and still no points on my Anniversary Pass. Am I missing something?

    I beat it 4 times and then it red ticked on me, so I can't now beat it for the 5th 250ISO award. Odd

    You don't. They are auto swapped for you in the roster screen. Cover swaps are the comic covers for the characters. They've done this for years periodically at various times, especially Halloween.

    Tiny phone big fingers.

    Plus too lazy to spell it Grammer check 😂😂😂

    Also these one and two star supports are a waste. Most if not all have them all to at least rank 3

    "Earn bonus progress when defeating or playing with Doctor Strange (Dead Strange), Headpool, or Spider-Man (Zombie)

    5 Points per Zombie Hero defeated"

    both works but 5strange and spiderman costumes are 5x more efficient that the other options.

    The Anniversary has been eaten.

    Let's go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint and wait for this all to blow over.

    Right after a Cornetto

    I came on to ask the question about how to collect the SXP. Perhaps in the introducing event?

    Edit: No, that didn't work.

    Check out this FAQ on the Anniversary Pass! Hope this helps.

    Which Spider-Man is Spider-Man (Zombie)?
    I don't have 5trange (Dead) so I'll try to use SpideyZombie and Headpool as much as possible with whichever bonus hero gives most points. Is there one that is original AND cover swapped?

    Maybe it's me but that FAQ doesn't even remotely answer all the questions one might have.

    Spider-Man (Zombie) is an upcoming costume for 4-Star Spider-Man (Infinity War). He'll be available for purchase soon! In the meantime, he can be defeated in the new Anniversary events. Like MPQ Vs. Zombies or Headpool's intro event!

    Gotcha. Well, since I'm a free player, I won't be using any of the purchased suits and will only use the other bonuses. Sorry, community! :D

    That is perfectly okay! We've got tons of F2P options to engage with the challenge. Have fun and get to slaying those zombies!
