    Sam Wilson is constantly rebalancing in order to maintain lift and fly through the air!

    Just started playing sim for this season and supports are turned on in it. Didn't see anything in the what's new announcement about that so not sure if it's a bug or intentional.

    Are you surprised by the lack of communication? One of these months they will release a character without any new character post.

    ya wish Supports were left off Shield Sim also. Though I like having Shang Chi's Chimichanga to get extra purple and MThor's Omnipotence City to use Sim is a slog to being with now with supports its gonna be annoying

    so its a 50 I hate it 50 I kind of like it sort of deal

    No one:
    How can we make Mbaku Namor teams cheesier?

    Devs:
    Supports!

    I imagine they meant to do this Day 1 of supports in PvP, and just forgot that Sim existed at all.

    When Supportts entered PvP they talked about things like: maybe some pvps wouldn’t have them, or maybe they would change some supports to work differently in PvP and pve, or maybe some limited sets of supports would be allowed in certain ones to make it more like tuning the feature to make it work best.

    That would be an approach that would lead to not turning them on in the season-long event, I think. But who knows, they’ve done none of that. Anyway.

    EDIT: it sure would have been nice if they had improved the rewards in sim along with this change, since they obviously can make changes to those without a New Engine (see adding supports shards to regular PvP).

    Heroic supports? This event, only Kra-Van and Hellfire Club! Next week, Krakoa and Pocket Radio!

    On the plus side, I am getting more defensive wins in sim than I ever have before.

    Yeeeeeeeeeeees! I also wish they told us they were turning them on in SIM, but I am super glad they did!

    35 wins in, I haven't fought a single Red Maysm and am having a blast! Though, now with supports, there is surely something better against them... To the lab!

    Thank you dev team

    I have to say I've cleared 30 wins in Sim in 3 days partially thanks to Supports being active in it. not too shabby.

    Helps when I can get Shang his Purple in turn 1 thanks to both his Chimiganga and MThor's omnipotence city.

    Supports in Sim have doubled my usual variety of node choices. I've gone from 99% OR/3a4 May/Chasm to 49.5% OR/3a4 May/Chasm and 49.5% 4a5 M'Baku/3a5 Namor/Chasm.

    In full disclosure, sometimes that Namor is only level 3 or 4. But it's still not really an improvement.

    @S0kun

    We were supposed to get 4* Falcon PVP on Feb 9-12 and never did. Any chance we can run that as a way to help with the challenge? Weird we had the 5* and 3* but not the OG Falcap!

    Oh, wow. Yeah, that would be extremely helpful.
