Thank you! Hey Brigby,it does seem like a lot of the 5* feeders have been newer characters compared to older characters. Would it be possible to get some insight from the devs on how they chose the 5* feeders? It seem like Hulkbuster being an IM would be an ideal feeder as well as 4thor being a feeder for 5* Thor but neither of these characters were chosen. We have had Valkyrie, Shuri, Black Panther, black widow all be chosen as 5* feeders over older 4*. Any insight or explanation from the devs would be appreciated

I'll get one 5* Iron Man cover whether it was War Machine or Hulkbuster so I'm not complaining because I'll gain more had it been Hulkbuster. I'm complaining cause its a cheap way to choose the feeders.
bluewolf said: I know a lot of vets are wishing it was IMHB instead of WM. And I understand wanting more covers. But I am not a day 1 vet - yet a pretty high level player with 10 champ 5’s - and my WM was higher than my IMHB, even before I bonused WM when he looked like a feeder. Either way I’m probably only getting one 5IM cover since both are in the 290’s. Maybe a major bonus luck streak will get me 2.TLDR; not everyone has the same luck or roster. The devs have set up a feeder. Maybe someday IMHB will be updated and you’ll get 6 covers, but in the meantime, I’m glad to have another avenue to build my 5IM.

You're mad that they won't be handing out more free covers when your own experience indicates that they won't actually be handing out more covers?So you're complaining that it's a cheap way to choose feeders when you can't prove that this is how they're choosing feeders and all presented evidence doesn't even point to it being "cheap" in the first place?

Any insight or explanation from the devs would be appreciated I'm not 100% certain what the criteria are for 5-Star "feeders," but when it comes to the Iron Man (Mark XLVI), I would personally argue that it was rather appropriate for War Machine to reward Iron Man (Mark XLVI).Since this celebration was focused around the MCU, it makes sense for War Machine to be the "feeder," since both War Machine and Iron Man (Mark XLVI) were in Captain America: Civil War; Iron Man (Hulkbuster) was not.

Thanks for responding. I can see your point about WM and civil war. Could you also still ask the devs about their thought process?also will the devs look to have multiple 4* feed into single 5*? With a release of 4*, 4*, 5* there are significantly more 4* than 5* and if there were two 4* feeding one 5* it would also help progress. Then you could have one newer 4* and one older 4* feeding the 5*.thanks again
