Somehow the token really loved me these last to days (and I looove them back!), but I currently really am afraid of not getting enough HP to save all of the new covers in time.
And stop using tokens seems stupid as well, because I need covers for chars to be able to lvl them v.v

Edit:
2nd Round:


Yeah, my Token loved me again lol
And thx too all of those who helped me last time <3

Surrently I have:
1x Purple ** Magneto (Marvel Now)
1x Purple ** Daken
1x Green ** Wolverine (Astonishing X-Men)
1x Blue 1x Purple ** Black Widdow(Original)

But only 2 free spaces.. I may get a 3rd one but itll beclose with only 3-4 days left v.v

My question is, which of those will I miss if I delete them, because I want to be able to use them as fast as possible?
Im really flirting with deleting the Magnete to use his spot for a healing Black Widdow ^^""


Any Help? v.v

  • Get rid of Venom for 3-star Mags. I throw away like 2 or 3 Venoms daily, so he's easily obtained down the road.

    Get rid of IM35 for IM40. As much as you probably don't want to hear it.

    2nd question, it seems character dependant but general rule, the more stars the longer.
  • That's rough. I'd first of all suggest that you think long term. Keep your current team because without it you will probably drown. Next, look at all the abilities, not just what you have. Think about the build you are going to shoot for. Think about how likely you are to get it again if you change your mind. That said, I'd definately keep Magneto classic, Spidey, and Grey Suit. Thor will replace your IM35, but you probably need him right now. I would think about not putting too much more ISO into him if possible. Drop Venom for sure. He's very common if you want to build him up later. I'm not wild about Hawkeye, but that's your choice. I wouldn't worry about moonstone if you can't get the space. The rest is a tough call. I like to have a 1* team, but I never use it except for the tournament. I don't like captain america, but you have a point about his boosts. He is also good for freezing if you are up against one enemy.

    So heres the question:
    If I really end up having to decide, which covers would be the best choice to delete/discard/sell? icon_e_sad.gif

    Already recruited:
    Iron Man (Model 35) (my highest lvl char, I really like his dmg ^^"")
    Storm (Modern) (I really like her with the black widow.. I can play all by myself xD)
    Black Widow (Modern) (OK, that Stun is awesome)
    Black Widow (Grey Suit) 2x Red (Iron Man always eats the red before I get to use her v.v)1
    Captain America (Modern) 1/1/2 (He currently gets buffed everywhere, but I dont really get his skills)
    Spider-Man (Classic) 1x Blue
    Hawkeye (Modern) 2/1/0 (OK, I love him, hes off limits lol)
    Thor (Marvel NOW) 1/0/1
    Venom (Dark Avengers Spider-Man) 1/1

    On the List:
    Iron Man (Model 40) Yellow
    Moonstone Red
    Magneto (Marvel Now) Purple
    Magneto (Classic) Red


    Any Help? v.v

    Ohhh and another strange questions, but what determines how long resurrection takes?

    Don't spend gold for enything except covers. Don't gamble with your gold

    @Polkio

    I didnt :/
    I bought one single Heroic Pack and everything else went into more space v.v


    @Blue Shoes

    I find it really difficult to predict whichs chars Ill find usefull later and which not, just by looking at the skills.. especially where combos are concerned..
    </3 being noob lol

    And stupid Captain America, u cant even really dislike him lol
    I so want lvl 3(?) on the counter skills, so I can place them over enemy tiles xD
  • Of the ones you have already the most useless (in order) are Venom, M Hawkeye, and Captain America. And while I don't like Cap much, he gets boosted a fair bit which actually makes him useful.

    You definitely want to keep IM40 and Magneto Classic. Magneto Marvel Now is a decent 2*, if you can get the covers for him. Moonstone pretty much sucks.

    And stop cashing in tokens. You'll just get yourself deeper down a hole. If you don't have HP for a new cover slot, just keep the tokens unless they're limited time. Target PvE missions that will get you HP. Yes, you need covers to level up, etc. but you need slots even more because every time you have to sell a cover because you don't have space you're throwing away a LOT of future potential.

    As for resurrection times -- each star level generally takes longer, but I've given up finding a rhyme or reason. Most 1* take a few minutes, most 2* take a half hour, but some are only a few minutes (Wolverine), and some are 45 minutes (Captain America). Same goes for 3* (IM40 is short, the others are ~50 minutes that I've seen). I haven't bothered playing a 4* yet, since they seem to suck badly.

    That bears repeating. There's a fair bit sitting there.

    I think resurrection might be tied to your character's level and rarity (meaning high-level rare characters resurrect slower than low-level 1-star characters) but I'm not 100% sure.

    Of this list, I would delete:
    Cap
    Hawkeye (sorry)
    Moonstone (this character is worthless...don't worry about it)
    and possibly Venom (Venom's Devour ability is much more powerful and useful than it looks)


    Cap is just a lousy character. He's been buffed in a couple of events but otherwise, he just isn't viable long term.

    Hawkeye, ditto. Sorry, he just isn't very good icon_e_sad.gif For a 1-star team, I would run IM, Modern Storm, Modern Widow. Very good team all around, but I would try to get ahold of C. Storm and Wolverine from the PVE prologue missions to join Thor ASAP and build out those characters. A team of 2-star characters will be viable for much longer than 1-stars.

    For the love of all that is holy, make sure you keep:
    Thor
    Spidey Classic


    I would also personally keep Iron Man Model 40 and Classic Magneto because they are 3-star cards. Classic Magneto in particular can be very, very strong eventually once he's fully developed.

    Give me your Spider-Man cover. You could use the free space and you don't want it anyway. He's really bad.

    In all seriousness, there are a few missions in the Oscorp/Dark Avengers prologues that yield 50 HP. Try and grab them before you make any decisions.

    I basically hoarded most of my tokens for over a month and a half, and just got covers from PvE missions, lower-ranked event rewards, etc. Yeah, your chars won't be high-level right away, but you'll build up Hero Points at a pace where you won't need to I've throw away any characters. I finally cashed mine in the other day and got to level up a lot of my existing chars without throwing anyone out.
  • This topic always irks me. Not because of you, you're fine and I sympathize with you. I'm annoyed at these devs. We complained that cover costs are too high. So they RAISED them. Then they told themselves the cost was justified because people didn't stop buying cover space.

    It's like they don't know what a captive market is. Hey Devs you could double the price again and I bet all that will happen is newer players will quit. Those HP sales are totally worth it!

    New problem in the first post :3
  • I would go with wolverine and black widow. Black widow because you have 2 convers for her and her purple skill is really handy already at level 1. Wolverine because he is better than daken and I had the feeling that daken covers are easier to obtain again. It's sad about the magneto but perhaps you are able to save him in time icon_e_smile.gif

    Yeah those are the 2 I'd suggest, but what does your existing list look like?
  • All 1 star heroes are expendable in the name of space. Trust me, you'll be sick of how many 1 stars you pull from standard tokens in a couple week's time.

    I dunno, until you have a leveled spidey, modern widow's blue is probably one of the better stunners, especially against a single opponent. ditto Modern storm's green

    m.Hawkeye's stun isn't too bad, neither c.Storm.

    3 turns is a long time to defend a count down timer, especially if you can't place it yourself. I'll give you c. storm's though
