Tintaiwan said: So mainly to target a newer character? Do you guys just hoard. CP and Legendary tokens? Any point in Standard/Elite/Heroic Token hoarding? What about Deadpool Daily credits? (do they expire?)Still not completely convinced. Most of my 5 stars are older. How long do you guys hoard? When has it worked for you and how? thanks for sharing
I think there are various reasons people hoard.
Personally I do because I do not want to waste a 4 star cover. I do not have enough iso to level all the toons I have left and so if I hoard ledge tokens and cp I eliminate most of the chance of wasting a cover.
IM an older player too so out of the 48 possible 4 stars I have 41 champed and im still having trouble with covers.
A lot of people in my alliance save up enough cp and ledge tokens for 250 pull sof the latest packs. This is more efficient because currently custy service will swap dupe covers you have for latest 5 stars. So it’s another chance for a cover.
That’s what im currently doing. Ill level up all my 7 4 stars I have left as high as I can get them wait till I get to 250 pulls then blow the lot.

mexus said: Hoarding sounds like playing the boring game. The maniacal game. That's OK but that's not for me. For this simple reason I sell all my 5* characters and will stop playing once I'm supposed to enter 5* transition (but I have almost all recent and upcoming 4* left before that happens). I flip open whatever I can and enjoys the pace of which my roster is growing.I'm also thinking the game won't survive another 2 years, which is about when I'm supposed to be a 5* player. Bummer to have hoarded and saved up and been frustrated over tinykitty 5* draw rates only to have the game retire when it's time to beat the big drum.
I don't Think there's any harm in rostering the fivestar characters you do happen to get, it's not like you need to level them once they are on your roster so you really only lose out on a roster spot. YMMV of course.
I am planning to crack open my hoard this weekend (up to 261 pulls now) and while the last four months have perhaps not been the most exciting time in the game I am quite looking forward to taking my roster to the next level with more fivestar champions.

Does taco token hoarding still work? I just tried to open some I have hoarded and they don't seem to count towards current vault.
There are two types of taco tokens, Sweet and Savory. We just started the Savory cycle, so any Sweet tokens you have left over from previous cycles will go to an inactive vault. However, on Monday when the next Sweet cycle starts the old Sweet tokens will be usable on the new Sweet vault while the Savory tokens go inactive.
TL;DR - yes, hoarding tacos still work, you just need to keep in mind there are two kinds.
Personally, I hoard CP, LT, and Tacos. I'm fairly new- Day 97 as of writing this. I'm in the 3* transition, I have 11 3* champed, and am working on rostering 4*s to complete more Behemoth Burritos and to be more competitive in PvE.
I am hoarding CP and LTs because I am not ready for an influx of new heroes. I don't have the HP to roster them. I also am keeping CP on hand intentionally so I can finish 3* for championing. I have only had to do this a few times, but the exchange is 20CP to finish and then the first champ level is a latest legends token, and I'm only making that move if I have a cover about to expire. For Tacos, I am hoarding on a small scale. I wait until the vault has at least 3 3* that I'm focusing on. It tends to happen about every 4-5 cycles, so I usually have 40-50 pulls from the vault. I'm not cleaning it out, but it tends to land me 2-4 3* covers for characters I'm either working on champing or have champed already. These are characters I either use all the time right now, or plan to use a lot when they're up to level. It's worth the wait.
