Borstock said: Ideally, with only 11 champed 4* characters, you probably should be hoarding until you have enough iso to champ two or three 4* at a time. So if you have 1 mil iso and had to waste 20 covers then feel free to take your v lap as the unluckiest player in the game. Otherwise, you should probably be hoarding.
shadowyoshi said: All of the talk here about resource management is true. And none of it applies to a guy with a half a million iso and 5/5/0 characters.That's not to say there aren't some things he could be doing better, but if RNG blesses you with 5/5/0, you aren't doing anything but wasting at least a few further covers on that character barring extreme luck.

With me needing so many covers in so many covers it amazes me how 90% of my 4* pulls are complete waste. Looking forward to the next unneeded new feature!

No. Did I eventually get the covers I needed and move on? Yep.Now read this next part carefully:They. Are. Never. Going. To. Change. This.People have been suggesting colorless covers for as long as I've been here, which is closing in on three years. It's not going to happen. This situation prompts purchases from people with poor impulse control. And people with poor impulse control are pretty much what fuels the entire Free-to-Play market. I'll let you do the math there.Either make peace with it, or find something else to play. Steam sales are a hell of a thing.

I understand not doing colorless covers. Why not have a system where you can spend resources to change the cover. Get a useless 4*, change the color of it for 500 hp. Still needs resources to do it so it's not going to kill sales. Or hell, why not ad 2cp to the sell price so when you do end up having to sell them it doesn't feel like a complete waste.
Waste is a part of the game, I'm afraid. I've been tracking my 4* cover waste since about Wasp (introduced to the game 7/31/16, so probably around September to November as it was harder to finish characters until the "Latest" dominated tokens.) She's my highest current one at 4 wasted covers, though Rocket and Groot probably would have been higher as I ended up with a 2/13/7 draw and just gave up and spent CP. Some of those 10 covers probably wouldn't have been wasted since I think I did draw a blue afterward sometime, but I think at least 5 of them would have been burned.
Total, I've wasted 24 covers since I've started tracking. Most of the time it's just 1 or 2, though I suspect both BP and Shuri are going to be hard since they are both started at some variant of 1/5/5...
