That's actually really cool, thx IceIX! It'd be nice to come back a full month after the Thorverine nerf and see if Wolv and Thor still place so highly, for all the wailing we've seen over them. I suspect they'll still be in the top 10, if not the top 5...

That, and considering what they do, they're still the go-to choices amongst the 2*s even after nerfs, particularly Thor.
Let's see, what can I say without giving numbers away... - There are very slightly more regular Android players than iOS players overall. Regular being those that stick around for a while. - iOS is more spikey with new players joining more often then leaving as quickly, Android players stick more often, but come in more slowly. Platform app discovery issues? - Steam is our fastest growing segment (duh, brand new), with players being the most sticky there compared to either mobile platform. - Brazilians on Android love themselves some Puzzle Quest, beating out both the UK and Canada in total users. Not so many iOS Brazilians, but they're still high on the list of countries overall. - Android version 4.1.0 is by far the most popular OS to play the game on, followed by 4.2.0 and 4.3.0. - iOS users update their OSes much more often in comparison, with most users being on either 7.0.4 or 7.0.3. - The Nexus 7 is by far the most popular single Android device to play on. Samsung as a manufacturer dominates the pack though with tons of devices being very high up on the usage list across many models. - The vanilla iPhone 4 is the most popular iOS device, with the iPad 2 being the strongest tablet in use for either iOS or Android. - About 10% of our regular userbase overall is either jailbroken or full rooted, much higher than we were expecting. The vast majority of said users play perfectly nicely, unlike popular depictions of those users being natural pirates/cheaters. - The character with the most purchased ability upgrades (minus Tutorials) is Iron Man (Model 35). His Repulsor Blast wins out with over triple the upgrades of the next highest character's total upgrades, Storm (Modern). - Dropping 1 stars, the most purchased ability upgrade in total crown goes to Black Widow (Grey Suit), and the most purchased ability upgrade singly goes to Daken's Pheremone Rage. - Most popular character overall is Iron Man (Model 35), which should come as no surprise since he's used so often by everyone early game. - Stripping out 1 stars the top 5 used in order are: Thor, Storm (Classic), Iron Man (Model 40), Captain America, Wolverine (Astonishing). Devil Dinosaur ranks dead last. - The Lightning Round played most regularly is Hood's, followed by Ragnarok. The one participated in least is Doom's, with Loki being slightly higher in participation.

Blue Shoes wrote: itstime1234 wrote: Funny how everyone says Rags is ruined but he is still higher than most of the other 3* villains in usage Don't read too much into that. He was ruined. But just like Thor and Wolverine, he was the highest leveled character a lot of people had. He's now my second highest character, and I don't use him.

He was ruined. But just like Thor and Wolverine, he was the highest leveled character a lot of people had. He's now my second highest character, and I don't use him. His usage stats dropped by about a third since he was changed. If every other number stayed the same and the number of uses stayed average until the current chart is only post alteration, he'd be sitting right behind but extremely close to Loki in usage stats. Which also kind of goes to show you the delta you're looking at between positions 20 and 26.

Is there a rarest team?
IceIX wrote: That's a difficult one to answer. Sure there is, but something like Yelena, X-Force Wolverine, and Juggernaut are rare because no one would team them up together given a real choice. In terms of "Sure, I guess I can see why they did that", the rarest is X-Force Wolverine, Invisible Woman, and Punisher. But those are also high rarities, so the chances of a player having (and deciding to use) all three is low.
Blue Shoes wrote: Puritas wrote: How on earth is Capt America that high?? IceIX has said in the past that he is just a popular character. Some people would rather play who they like over who is better. I was surprised by BagMan, but he did have that tournament boost. Plus some people swear by him for PvE.
