Are we getting a new 5-Star next week?

They said Galactus was supposed to replace a 4-Star release, but he came out of nowhere.

We had a 2-Star release last week, so are we getting a 5-Star next week like we’re supposed to?

    Does this count as us "getting Galactus"? We can't really use him, yet.

    I think so.

    You’re right even if you buy all the bundles and get very lucky with draws you can only get maybe halfway to a single “cover”.

    How long until someone miraculously has a fully loaded Galactus?

    I’m still shocked by how many people can have fully championed 5-Stars in less than a week.

    I don’t think we can rely on anything being released on time with the anniversary this month. I would like to know what happened to the fan favorites stores, have they been replaced with vaults ? Are they going to have a Galactus store to pull for him?

    On this, I have 300 Latest legends tokens, and 8,000 CP.

    I'm no where near a top player. if i wanted to, i could fully cover a Latest legend as soon as they're in the store.

    None of that should help with 6stars, so hopefully it'll be a bit longer for a fully covered galactus.

    I’m not a top player either.
    But I do manage 250-300 LTs & 3000 or so CP a month.

    Yeah, I agree. I never play for placement, only for progression. But I definitely 13-cover a 5* as soon as it's in LTs.

    That’s mostly due to many longtime player having dupes for all their 4*
    I’m sitting on 2 370s for every 4* that isn’t a feeder yet, so I can double dip for 24 nearly every time

    We recently saw Zemo bring fed by an upcoming related 4 star instead of an old one. I wouldn't be surprised if that becomes the new normal so that they can stop people from double dipping.

    I think he meant at 550. Did you mean that you could 550 a new 5 star with 300/8000?
