I do not enjoy fighting spiderman but with an extra bank of hp it becomes infuriating. That is why I/most people highly prefer the villain rounds. Better tier rewards, less used / leveled chars. Less rng.

Less rng. Your logic is flawed. How are heroes more readily available when villain lightning rounds have been going on since beginning of time and hero rounds are brand new. Also on average most if the heroes are newer and they have pretty balanced rewards of hero and villain throughout tourneys. NOTHING I know about MPQ backs up heros bring more available.

There hasnt been a single pve event in recent history that has offered a villain reward outside of the hunt:ares. Its been punishers and patches for days.

I don't know how, bu that was experience in last ones. At that time I had no villains worth mentioning but 2 heroes over 100 and 2 more over 80. Thought it is my chance. Guess what, I fared worse than in villains going naked. O,O. My team of triple buffs met their match an better. The whole word seem to have them ready to roll. That is the practice, let's see theory: 1. up until recently villains were not offered as prize anywhere. You could only get them from random tokens, 1-2 covers from daily and obviously form LR. In latter you quite needed some to get anywhere. 2. Those around could assemble a 8-cover Hulk from his intro. 3. Punisher was regular progression award in many places, you could gather 6-8 covers from there 4. When Patch was introduced he was falling from the sky. Those having some of Punisher could easily got him full right ahead or get 10 covers at least 5. IM40 I didn't see much but everyone starting before steam looked like having a plenty of him. (And recently 3 sets were available) 6. Spiderman was offered as prize several times, you could get at least 6 covers maybe more. 7. GSBW: also offered as prize currently I only have her at 3 covers not playing much in those So care to justify how heroes were NOT more available?

Red Rag is the only cover I'm missing. I know he's nerfed but it's nice for completion's sake.
