    *(01/11/19) IceIX - Updated Versus events, Story events, Deadpool's Dailies and Weekly Buffs.

    Been a while since I've done one of these updates... Fully expect I fat-fingered something along the line.
    Thanks for the update. We realize it's a little late in the day and it's less likely people were actually "in the office" to provide one, but we always appreciate having a road map to kinda plan things in advance a little bit.

    At first I was very confused. I'm so used to seeing Brigby that when I saw IceIX I thought it was some new boss event. Nice to know the big B has some backup!

    Hi Everyone. I had to take the day off at the last minute for personal reasons, so big shout out to @IceIX for being kind enough to cover for me while I was gone. Thanks for understanding!

    Oh thank goodness! Nightcrawler and not Thing again so soon after the last time. Versus though... Black Vortex plus Earth’s Mightiest equals 5 days of boosted Carol, followed by Rogue slowing things down for the first week of season. Well, maybe it’s more painful to imagine than it will be to experience.

    Thank you, this is very much appreciated!

    The only thing wonky, is that the title didnt change so people might not know there IS an update within. Neither in the Announcements  or Gen Discussion category is it displaying the 1/11/19 update in the title. Only the old 1/8/19 one. Not sure how that happens... Must be a forum format thing....

    The second sub of Unstable Iso-8 seems to be giving out two CP rewards for the final hard node and 4* essential, despite only being a 24 hour sub.  Is that a mistake?

    Same here. I hope it’s something permanent going forward...

    That was the 48hr sub last time, so I’m guessing it was just a mistake

    Hi, I think there might be an error in the recent update to the <Hotshot> Versus Tournament.

    3-Star: Doctor Doom (Otto Octavius) should be Doctor Doom (Classic) instead.

    Superior Doctor Doom. Otto takes over Doom’s body. Checks over Doom’s records.
    ”Hmm, now where is his degree? Wait! He left college!? Why, he’s not a doctor at all! Fraud! Fraud I say!! The world must know that Victor von Doom will henceforth be known as Mister Doom!”

    Doctor Doom has a degree from the University of Latveria (tm)*

    I wouldn't really want a degree from Doom/Reed's college to be honest. After all Reed sent his beloved ones into space and got them filled with deadly radiation and Doom exploded his own face.

    *Founded by Victor Von Doom.

    Their supervising professor obviously considered them to be showing a commendably high degree of commitment to their research and was happy to award them doctorates. I wonder who that was?

    Woops! Nice catch! Although Otto taking over the role of Doctor Doom sounds like an interesting alternate reality to think about :D

    Galactus Hungers with a boosted America Chavez and Iceman? Thanks for a weekend off, MPQ!

    Boss events usually have their own boost list

    This is true. However, in this case, Iceman happens to be Featured, so he's Boosted there, too.
    Hulkbuster and 3* Iron Fist are boosted for it, too, which generally gets me through these pretty easily.

    Yeah true that, I was being lazy. Iceman doesn’t seem like a good match against galactus since his stun won’t work and aoe is wasted against one opponent, but I guess the side nodes maybe?
