I'm really happy since I really wanted that Red cover. I'm now at 5 blue, 2 red and 5 purple. Just one more red to go. Actually I kinda got confused near the end and thought that 1st place was Wolvie and 2-5 were enough for the red cover. Had looked at the other PvP tourney by accident. That made me shield 5 minutes before the end when I really shouldn't have. Luckily it worked out.

My Magneto was 97, but I was using Wolvie/OBW yeah. I'm sorry, if it was me, but I didn't have much choice in my bracket. Bunch of mid level Magnetos with OBW/Thor or people with all 100+ 3* teams.

The las Mag round had this really bloody inconsiderate guy by the name of MANHOOD. He has a capped Mag, 141 3/5/5 Mag. Yet he still fought all the way to top place. He must have really needed the 75 hp. Anyway. Rango, are you related to this RanSolo guy?

I noticed soenottelling fighting in one of the rounds despite having the maxed villain; he was iso farming or something, he tanked afterwards. But many people indeed are 'building' their secondary villains despite already having a maxed one, can't believe those first world MPQ problems exist when respec is due, lol. Can't complain on my side too much, got 3 green covers I lacked today: Thor, Hulk, IW, also 1 red for Ares, 1 red for Mags, 1 purple Moonstone. Now to farm a metric ton of ISO! Meh, I just dislike it a lot when people attack weaker teams despite having choice. It would be like beating Prologue over and over again for me. There is difference between 'comparable', 'obv. weaker', 'obv. stronger'. I think most players know it. Personally opt not to fight obv. weaker teams often, sometimes my brackets just suck too hard.

That's a recipe for disaster given how volatile the top spots are in LRs. Two defeats and you're suddenly swapping from top 8 to top 50. Take solace in that I won't be gunning for any late night Mag runs in the future bar 5 seed team wins for some fast ISO. If I need to respec, they're adding that feature, and I've still got reds in the cache.

I totally understand that, the current system just makes it difficult. It's the same problems that leads to the need for tanking. To get a top spot you need tons of points (and in LRs, fast), but once your MMR is high, every single fair or hard fight is risking death or at least the need for health packs. While low MMR players can just fight match after match on auto pilot and amass easy points. In the end I have to work within the system, so I tank prior to tourneys I want to place high in and then fight whatever the system offers me that is comfortably doable. I'll look out for your name next time and avoid you if I see you with a weak team again. Feel free to gank me into oblivion if you encounter me again.

Not to mention saving the time spent skipping. If you have a lvl18 Mags and want covers, imagine how bad someone with a lvl50+ mags wants those covers so they can actually have him in their normal lineup.
