We get SHIELD Training (they already announced it was coming) but it does not start until the Boss event starts, so noon eastern time.

Honestly, what I really miss was more variety in the 4* featured node in PVE. I greatly prefer their original solution to dilution (having the latest 12 4*s share a 50% pool of the drawn 4*s,) than this. This honestly seems the worst of both worlds - we do get more covers for them, sure, but not a lot more covers for them and it makes the 4* featured node much harder for most of the player base, and irrelevant for the top of it. I like playing my 4*s, but an undercovered lower level one contributes very little to the fight.
I mean, it works, I just champed Dazzler to 273 (bad draws,) but with the old system I was getting my 4* characters to about 300-310 before they dropped off, now I think it will be 280 or so. 300 is about the point where you would consider fielding a 4* instead of a 5*, so those extra levels are very important...

I remember when the backup characters were Prof X, Cyclops, and Wolverine, and lots of people complained because they hadn't actually champed all the old 4*s yet. That I remember.
