If you have only one champed 5*, most of your targets will have only one champed 5* as well.
I started with only DD champed and had no more difficulty reaching 900 than I had with champed 4*

mexus said: Magic said: Thor is fine on offence (not as good as DD but fine) so getting 900 should not require much effort with him as a single 5* (just keep him at mid health when possible).But as others said - he will be on 90% of your team from the moment you champion him. Two nodes in DDQ for speed, the PvE for his match damage (read - speed; and when boosted you will see how the PvE flies for the whales ) and PvP (sometimes you might do better with two boosted 4* if they combo well with the featured - all depends a bit but the MMR with 1 5* is not that bad). My Daredevil is at 11 covers.My hopes are that Iron Fist will start giving him as champion reward which would take him to 12 + 1 useless purple. Which is still not good enough but hey - it's something. Maybe i can save CP up and snatch the final cover once he lands in the HfH store again given it's not purple.

The 4* feeders give 5* covers in order from top to bottom. Daredevil's order is yellow, green, purple. If you're already at 11 covers, you would have to get a green and yellow cover before you get to a useless purple cover.But if you're sitting at 11 covers and you need to get two in order to receive what would be an extra purple, then how would you still only be at 12 covers after that? I'm guessing your build is something like 3/3/5 or 2/4/5? In either case, the first two covers would be exactly what you need before getting to an extra purple. Unless your build is something like 1/5/5, but then you would have either an extra yellow or green before you ever got the extra purple. Easy as this:when I say purple I actually mean green.

It should be ok (you will probably see some champ OML or Phoenix that are not as good as they were when this show has started). But if you max DD at 11 or 12 covers that will most likely put you in double champion MMR with Gambit on many teams. I would advise against that. So champ Thor = OK and lay back until I can champ another 5* before investing ISO into any of them?Thinking of champing Thor to make PVE even breezier.None of my 5* have so far had any crunch of the ISO 8 cake yet.

smkspy said: Right now these feel like the salad days of the game for me, and I worry that going down the road of champing 5s is gonna be like when they were first introduced and just wrecked the game for many of us, myself included. Eventually I want to do it, but I want to be ready with at least 5-6 max-covered fives ready to go, which I'm rather near to already.

If you have either Carol or Coulson (or both) champed and don't mind the change in PvP MMR, I recommend champing Clint. The essential + Clint + either Carol or Coulson in PvP is an absolute terror to face
