Roster progress report, and plans for your roster

I have still not been able to champ 3* Jeff! I have acquired 15 covers of High Evolutionary since last Thursday and not one single Jeff. I am going to have to shard him to finish him looks like. Really bizarrely specific RNG on this one.

I got 5* Star-Lord and Kingpin champed and Coleen thanks to the Guardians grindfest, so that only leases a fully covered M'Baku and Torch. No other 5* are currently fully covered at present (working on Magik from Latest and Ultron - that one will be long unless he somehow pops up in a store or I get a cover for another classic and switch or whatever).

My sympathies. I finally champed 3* Magik today! As for 3* High Evo, the game has given me 8 covers and they're all blue, so I guess he's going to take a while.

Day 293, SR 104, rostered characters: 185.

Play SCL9 for both PvE (T100~10, 120%~180%, varies on having 5E) and PvP (T1~50, going mostly for 16 or 25 wins, 500~800 score). Mild spending, probly around 30 USD so far, with focus on HP value.

Roster status:
1★: 1 (for DDQ, still need iso)
2★: 12 (one just flipped but used the slot for a 5★)
3★: 54 (only Angel not champed because I didnt need to so far)
4★: 98 (0 champed, 18 fully covered, softcapped based off highest 3★ levels)
5★: 20 (all level 255, 1~6 covers, sharding SC who's 3/0/1)

All new 4★ since I started playing back in July 2022 have been covered with shards/covers to spare, all Boss Event covers acquired (personal and alliance) since Chasm's turn.

Pretty much all HP into slots since account creation (I think I shielded on pvp twice), around 1k saved Heroic/Mighty tokens, near 100 LTs, 3,6k CP (spend sometimes on release stores if I can afford slots but mostly hoarding).

Slowly sharding relevant 4★ and targeting 3★ that is closest to the next HP reward (first to lv199 where its still quick, will move to lv231 after, with a few already there natually).

My PvP MMR is comfortable so I dont want to rush with 4★ tier right now, and it havent impacted negatively my PvE so its fine. 7m iso bank is not nearly enough for whats to come... also I want to see whats PvP like at SCL10 without champed 4★ if possible, but not hardcore going for this.

And with some bonus shards...the Meta was completed. 5* Colossus fully covered and can be champed when I have the iso. Never imagined this day would come as I got so few of his covers on his release, so pretty pleased really.

Not sure who to go after next. I guess Ultron is at 12 covers...

Still free-to-play so hard to judge the speed of progress against others who've splashed out on HP's, CP's, shards and covers. Nevertheless, happy to have finally got my last 3* last night. A good time to update (day 179)

Currently at 72 roster slots
5's: 6 to date (Gamora, Apoc, Shang Chi all two covers. Kingpin, Ronan & Ultron with 1). 
4's: 5 rostered with Ikaris champed (been in a lot of events so got the covers and shards to champ him quite easily). 
3s: All 47 rostered - 38 champed
2s: 13/14 farming. Still only Bagman not rostered
1s: Just Spiderman for DDQ

Next step is to start building my 4 and 5 collection to help with PVP in particular but also improve SCL I can get a decent placement in in PVE. 

Quite a while since my last update. Remain a F2P player, today is day 429 so now over a year of playing the game.

Roster slots: 134
5s: 24 rostered. Gargantos and Thor highest with 6 covers each.
4's: 48 rostered. Three champed (Wolverine X Force, Ikaris, Spider-Man Oscorp)
3s: All 49 champed. Thor at 257 so close to farming my first 3!
2s: 13/14 farming, still no Bagman
1s: None rostered. No longer a need since the DDQ changes.

Plans going forward are to keep pace with the 3 releases and catch up with the missing 4s. Hopefully I'll get a few more 4s champed too.

Quite a while since the last update. Still free-to-play but made good progress since the last update.

Roster slots: 220
5s: 51 - MThor the highest with 10 covers
4s: 101 rostered. 42 champed - Deathlok the highest at 289.
3s: 55/56 rostered. Just need Spider-Rex who was released in the last few days.
2s: 13/14 rostered, still no Bagman
1*s: None rostered.

Farming both my 2s & 3s where I can as very much in the ISO drought now.

Currently 82 characters left to roster so only plan is to continue chipping away at that and hopefully add some more covers to existing 5*s to make SCL10 easier.

Shang Chi (5 covers) and MThor (10 covers) are doing a lot of the heavy lifting in both PVE and PVP to allow me to progress at SCL10

Edit* Should add, day 673

I would champ Riri first. She's great with MThor.

I also suggest Shang Chi for you to target in the very near future. His true heal makes it very easy for you to continue using him over and over without too much risk of him getting downed.

This is pretty much my go to right now.

So things seem to be under control although I would like to see the Dev answer on the change to 5* Essentials in PvE and whether that means I am going to have a harder time finishing Jeff. Otherwise it is time to look at what projects I have to go. Here are the most promising candidates (the 4* shards available are primary feeders, I can't be arsed to look for secondary):

Ghost Rider 5/3/3 - Lvl 405 (152 shards - 1900 shards available from 4) - I just can't get my head around Robbie even boosted, so not sure on him
Deadpool 4/3/3 - Lvl 390 (127 shards - 1400 shards available from 4) - Has to be the favourite, right?
OML - 4/4/3 - Lvl 390 (65 shards - 500 shards available from 4) - He feels underpowered but a classic, classic, eh? Still would need a bit of help also as can't get there from feeders alone.
Hulk (Banner) - 4/2/5 - Lvl 345 (33 shards - 1500 shards from 4) - I like Banner, definite possible.
Onslaught - 3/4/4 - Lvl 330 (64 shards - Have completely forgotten who feeds Onslaught so...) - Niche but with Prof X is pretty devastating
Rescue - 4/2/5 Lvl 313 (50 shards - 1500 shards from 4) - Uhm...
Captain Marvel 3/5/3 Lvl 300 (275 shards - no shards available from 4) - Gotta get a rebalance surely? But The Marvels is a long way off and I would have to finish D4nvers and re-roster which will be doable but no idea how long
Black Widow 5/3/2 Lvl 300 (235 shards - 1900 shards from 4) - Waaaay too expensive, so I think no for now
Gambit 5/3/2 Lvl 300 (345 shards - 1500 shards available from 4) - He is OK now but that black power is still a pain
Hawkeye Lvl 300 3/3/4 (18 shards - 1500 shards available from 4*) - Obviously an integral part on a Kang team but Deathlok is doing a stellar job right now so he could wait
DD 5/4/2 Lvl 295 (42 shards - Once again completely forgotten who feeds) - No idea about him

I also have Surfer at 10 covers also who I guess is also a candidate.

1st world MPQ problems I know - I haven't even needed to hit Classics or favourite feeders too much yet either so I have those in my armoury.

Stick with Ghostpool.
