Villians get a 100% boost, but heroes are not locked out.

    If you don't have a maxed 3* Daken and Sentry, you're gonna have a bad time.

    Haha canonical Sentry/Daken/Hood (they worked for Osborn). X-Men rejoice!

    Wow! We're going from a PvP where I got to play with most of my roster to one where everyone will be playing the same team. Lots and lots of mirror matches with Sentry/L Daken/Hood coming up for the next two and a half days.

    So you can only use villains, right?

    This is going to be ugly...

    Sounds like bullseye might be a hard counter to all those Sentry teams, especially if he's buffed.

    Classic Magneto + Bullseye + Rags with his Godlike Power to screw with Sentry. <3
    Edit: in fact if you don't have Sentry/Daken, Magneto/Hood/Rags are not a completely terrible team. Tons of cascades, full rainbow, for offense match crits on yellow and black, use Rags green and red with great prejudice, fire purple/black/yellow when given a chance. Shouldn't be too hard with this much cascading and AP generation.
    Edit: forgot that Ares is better than Rags.

    Ares is better but Godlike Power might not be such a bad thing to have with Sentry around. In an ideal world you'd have Ares and a Godlike TU for that one time you really need it.

    Wow, they are really boosted for this event. Level 332!

    This should be fun - don't need the covers, convenient end time, should see at least some variation in teams. And zero pressure - I think needing one of the covers on the last one made it a bit less fun.

    Also, your entire roster is available! I thought it would be "Villains-Only" not "Villains-Boosted".

    Works for me, my only maxed villains are 2* Magneto and Daken.

    this event was a good idea on paper until you see L332 CMags, Sentry and Daken..maybe Hood.

    Another event just for whales. Stupid, just stupid. No chance for anybody else.

    Huh. Wonder if Sentry and Baby Daken will be enough. That's about all I can run as far as boosted villains.

    Um, lots of people have sentry/daken that aren't "whales". Some of us are completely free-to-play.

    People with more developed rosters will always have an advantage. That's the incentive to develop a roster.

    Pro tip: whinging is generally more effective if it's based, in some way, on reality.

    That said, I do not look forward to L332 Sentry + UD + Hood mirror-fights.

    I have a maxed Hood, Sentry, and Daken. I have bought a total of six covers ever, with real money (4 daken, 2 sentry), and have since earned those same ones back twice as rewards. Imma be krilling it in this one, since I must be a whale.

    Safe bet damn near every team above about 600 points is going to be Sentry/Daken/Hood by the end of the day. Sounds like "fun" (actual fun not included, some restrictions may apply).

    Just noticed something a little strange: maxed Ares is level 187 in this event. He was level 93.5 all along, and I didn't know it until now
