I also got 3 X-Force (2 green and a red) and 1 Invisible Woman. I won't complain about getting all that extra ISO when I could have had four Bagmen, but I would rather that they lower the odds on 2*s that are available as rewards for PVP battles and increase the odds on 3*s.

Single token odds are 1.2% per 4* and .7% per 3*, or 1.% and .9% for multipacks (insert Leeloo joke here). Sure, you're more likely to get a 3* overall, but you'll get a ton of single cover 3* characters first, on average, while the small field of 4* in tokens ensures that when you do pull one, you're far more likely to be able to add to a character. This might seem like an odd way of looking at it, but it occurred to me when I looked at two different friends' rosters who were in the early-to-mid 2* phase. One had the back half of his roster filled with over half a dozen basically unusable 3* covers stuck at level 15 while he had just gotten his fourth X-Force Wolverine, while the other was selling off much-loved 3* singletons to keep his logically "precious" 4* covers he had managed to build to like 2 covers each. My point here is two-fold: 1) there aren't enough 4* characters to justify the current token distribution odds. 2) it's hard out there for a non-forum-reading newbie. P.S.: one of these guys has a level 85 Bag-Man. It made me so sad, yo.
