So LT/Hood/OBW worked pretty well. Thor's moves aren't cheap, so AP stealing is really effective.

Got a few defensive wins as well and wasn't attacked as much as when I ran Patchneto. I climbed from 900 to 1000 without being attacked. I will probably use the same team if the event is rerun.

I can't wait to finish top50 and get this last Blue Hood. I planned to save ISO to get him to 141, but I dumped all into my amazing 544 LThor, getting him from 50 to 95. He's around 141 when boosted, so I can see his power in all the glory

I was attacked like hell playing CMags+Patch, the attacks stopped once I switched CMags to Hulk. Not that it matters, as I lost my next two fights and now waiting for medpacks.

6 hours left here. I wonder if I can stay in top 50 and get a Hood cover. (Probably not.)

Another day in the life of a 2*->3* prole.

Eh, 700 is enough for a Hood cover so that'll do me unless someone goes nuts and pushes me out in the next five hours.

Not paying attention to this meant I could add over 1100 to my simulator score instead

@Laoahpeh, sorry for hitting you man - Tried to let you shield, but I ran out of health packs, so had to just go for it and shield myself. Retal probably sucks, but feel free to hit me back. At one point I kept cycling high point SHIELD guys, and didn't want to hit any of you guys (or incur the wrath of Ghast!) while you're climbing. Anyway - good luck finishing up and hopefully holding onto that top 5 in season. Few of you guys really battling it out, will be fun to watch what happens.

I was joking. I really need to remember to put smilies in my posts.

Besides, I wouldn't do that to you on Father's Day.

Whoops. Meant to try to get a few points in this event. Oh well.

I got somewhere around 730, was 45th with 8min to go, then pushed out to 64 at the last. So no. :-/

I'm starting to think I'll need to start spending 75HP a tourney to perhaps guarantee myself any sort of 3* progression in them... I haven't quite been able to afford that lately.

Depending on your alliance, at one 75HP 3 hour shield, you should at minimum break even with a top 150 solo finish and an alliance finish in the top 2500 alliances. If you can bring yourself up to top 100, you'll make a 25HP profit per event that you only shield once with a 3 hour.

I find that I either go with an 8 hour, or two 3 hour shields and break even with a top 25 finish. If I can work my way up to 900 for the HP reward I make a small profit in HP.

It sucks to play with lowly boss. Especially when he is a beast -- patch in the prev. tournament and now LT just rules the field. One Cots and opponent team gone -- maybe you need one shot of red or yellow but who cares.

I went with mags/hood all the way, minimum incoming attacks and barely bruised. hood and mags collects AP at a really good rate, especially on better terrain -- I had to adjust play style of mags to concentrate on this aspect. The yellows or greens were present really fast.

Using Hulk puts you back to square one -- In past I considered LT quite sucks for being slow, and he is indeed without proper ramp too. Even if you not lose you're bound to swallow a ton of damage to compensate.
