    Does it matter what kind of Doc Ock you have to fight Rogue Gambit with?

    Yes it does; when he is champed and boosted, you can bring Vulture and Carol and do filthy damage with his green and blue

    Nice to see 1 last hurrah for GladiaThor before leaving latest. Hopefully they skip Jessica on the next 2, but recent history suggests otherwise.

    You guys really hate us.....Doc Ock in a new release is just bad....furthermore, the new release is the most difficult pve (hated by the most part of us players).....surely a week end to remember .......remember that it's spring and maybe Val is not worth my pain and efforts. Thank you  :)

    This is the first time I'll be able to do more than the first node in Shield Training.

    @Brigby are we finally getting regular simulator again or will it be all xmen again and not utilize 99% of the available roster?

    Edit: just saw the in-game picture that shows its xmen again so I'll ask this just like I did last time. WHY ARE WE STILL GETTING THE XMEN ONLY SIMULATOR WHEN THIS IS (WAS) ONE OF THE ONLY EVENTS IN THE GAME THAT HAD ANY VARIETY? The best thing about it was that some of the nodes were updated every time it came up to give some new and interesting challenges. Now it's just rogue/gambit/jean/prof x over and over and over again.

    It's interesting to see they haven't picked Shuri as a required, despite her being the most recent 4* and being in tokens.  Hopefully that's a permanent change, and only the final row will be there to reward people for covering a character quickly.

    I'm just a bit annoyed that I still don't have enough Red Hulk covers.  I pulled another red cover as a bonus hero, but that's the one colour I have five of.  Perhaps I'll get lucky when I open my latest tokens for Jessica Jones next week.

    Hope we get word on the next anti-tapping test, or if it was such a complete success that we'll switch over to it soon.

    THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    please keep the structure for shield training like this where you don't have to have the previously released character that barely got added to the pack.

    as a player with 1500+ days it's nice to actually be able to do these and get a single cover for the new characters @_@

    Not going to lie, this is going to help immensely with my hoarding. I just so happened to champ both Panther and Shuri after cracking a hoard to finish Thor and start Jess. So I was more than ready for either one to be be SHIELD featured. 

    Its not uncommon for me to just need 2-4 covers to get a new four star elligible for SHIELD and being so close means I’d usually bite the bullet and pull some to try and get them there. If this new pattern holds I will no longer have to do that (I’m only missing 1 4* cover in the whole game not including Valkyrie). I know the developers don’t want to incentivize hoarding and I think SHIELD Training was one of their ways to curtail it. I know for me it sort of worked and obviously with this change I will once again hoard. Just being honest!

    Lame. Doc Oc. So does this confirm the order is totally random and SS being first was just a coincidence?

    Not necessarily. It's been a long while since Ock was essential too since he was the first Latest fivestar to leave the pool after the fivestar essential node was introduced. We may just see the no-longer-Latest fivestars interspersed in the cycle. It's definitely to soon to say it is totally random, at the very least.

    Looked over the list in Tips and Guides, and Ock was last Essential just Before Black Bolt, so I am not Writing off the order yet. If so, Black Bolt and Green Goblin should be the next two essential Classic fivestars.

    Chulk as the following 4* placement.. I smell an announcement for 5* Hulk being his champ reward coming soon
    We've been getting one new 5* feeder a month since the initial announcement, so it would be about two to three weeks too early.  Of course, there isn't any official policy, but it would definitely buck the trend.
