I see many purple 5trange pulls in your future. I still have only one 5 star with 5 covers in one color, and I pulled a 6th in that color.

That's the beauty of pulling Latest, CS will swap dupes for another colour.

It is entirely up to the discretion of the CS rep your ticket is reviewed by. It might happen, but it just as likely won't, especially if you haven't spent money on the game.

If you continue having trouble it may be due to your roster, Wolvie/Daken are in the bottom half of 2-stars and have little to no utility (AP gain/denial) in tiers beyond (whereas Storm, OBW, Mags will find use well into the 3-4 transition). Magneto especially can fish for crits which, teamed with Strange, can do 3-5k damage by themselves and generate blue (e.g. fueling Storm's 2k+ aoe with 4-turn stun). If you have any CP saved up I'd even suggest risking it on more token pulls before the Sanctorum closes up (in 4 hours ). 10% is the best chance you'll ever have (if you spend 175 CP that's about a 50% chance of one or more) to get additional covers which would considerably boost his effectiveness (esp. if you lucked out on a Yellow), plus no chance of getting a different 5-star singleton which would push your difficulty further (2 255s in a 2-star roster is manageable, but kind of a huge pain and definitely not recommended.) You'd get a bunch of 4s and probably have to dump some you wouldn't have room for, but it'd be worth it IMO.

Did you not read them say that they are ONLY a mere 2* player??????? Clearly, you have no clue how much PvE and PvP is effected, after you roster a 5*. Most of you vets / 4* and up people do not. lol. Good Lord.

Best way to take him out is Green Goblin glider and Black Bolt so he can't get off his yellow. PvE ranking - 1. PvP ranking - 6. Looks like everybody agree on this one. I don't know if people who have whaled him will say something different about PvP, but for now, top tier for PvE, too little hitpoints for normal PvP is going to be the general rule (but probably great as third for Sim). Thing is, defense in PvP in 5 land is not that important, once you have a working PH+OML no 5 can really go against them (not even Spidey), so maybe his low hitpoints is not a big deal (it is important to see if his low hitpoints will really make him a target). His blue and yellow are really good, and his purple can work wonders against strike tile creators, so maybe he can also be a very good teammate for BBolt or PH in PvP too. Strange is right now, the best stunner in 4 land and this is a big deal (I would have killed to have Strange already champed to go against those Rhulks this weekend).

The main benefit to OML Phoenix team is drowning your opponent in strikes...which Spidey renders useless. Sure you can spam Purple but you'll just be getting regular ol' match damage which vs anyone below the 5* tier is devastating but against another 5* with a 50k health pool is not all that amazing.
