Since this is my best chance to pull a #1 in ages (I've only won a regular PVP once - first Rage and Ruin - and it was ages ago) I'll probably try shielding if I think I need to. It'd be nice to get my second X-Force Wolverine. Hi Ben. You're not in my bracket but in my mmr bracket. You got a retal off of me but I hit you twice on the climb up. No hard feelings, I hit 804 at 10:00 before I went to work. Hoping I didn't drop too much so I can climb off retals at the late hours. I work weekends and get home around 23:00. Climbing like a rock star then shielding for a day. Last LCap yellow and I've got my first 3* completely covered. The wolvie is a plus. If I hit it.

Every battle is pretty much the same -- go in with Ares and try to do as much damage with his green before the other team's Ares (coupled with some combination of Rags/Daken and occasionally Moonstone or Venom). There is no board control and little actual strategy in these battles. Instead, you just have to hope your opponent doesn't get big cascades before you can take out Ares. And then you finish having taken massive damage so you either have to use up your health packs, go to the prologue to heal, or take a long timeout.
