    Carol Danvers is already my highest level fourstar, so I am definitely looking forward to more easy-to-get covers. She might be at level 370 when the Movie comes out... not likely, but possible.

    Hoping for her to feed 5* Carol - my dupe is 295.


    That would make a lot of sense. So it probably won't happen.

    They could go with Nick Fury instead...

    If she's good, they'll go with whatever 4 they released 6 weeks ago.
    If she's trash, they'll go with a very old 4.

    Kitty Pryde is going to make this the easiest event yet.  Galactus makes countdowns, Kitty passively blows them up.

    Once you’re in round 3, Galactus makes 2 CDs (or more) per turn.  So you might make Kitty work well, but she can’t keep up without matching a CD away per turn.  She can’t get ahead without some cascades or really lucky CD placements.

    I’m having trouble figuring out how to place 1st, when I complete all nodes, there are always a few players in my alliance who are ahead of me. How do you get max points?

    Can't believe that C4rol will be my first 4* champ. Guess I'm getting a great start!
    Savor the moment when it happens. I still remember the feeling of my first 4* champ - Riri.
    Fury for me.

    Depends on how many fights you get into and what round Galactus you fight. So you play early and I join later and the alliance is already in round 3, when I am done with my clears, I will be ahead of you because I fought only round 3 Galactus, whereas you fought a mix of rounds 1, 2 and 3.

    More importantly, if you hit the boss just once in round one and stop, when the round is cleared, the boss will unlock and you can hit him once in round two, and so on and so forth. By the time rounds 3 or 4 happen you can have a nice chunk of points and still have all your clears left.

    Just started the event and was supremely disappointed in the boosted list. I don’t have all the 4* covered and leveled so maybe there’s something I’m missing but it would have been nice to see some synergy outside of just IF with HB or XFW.

    There is no way they'd pick Carol. They know they'd be paying out like a slot machine. Those bean counters dont like that.

    Considering that a 5Carol won’t appear until March, probably, she’ll be in Latest until late August. Then a feeder might be implemented after that, so September at the earliest. Could be a lot later. Plenty of time to level up the 3 candidates.

    Valkyrie feeds GladiaThor, MEHulk feeds 5* Loki, Antman feeds 5* Wasp. Assuming they stick to movie links for MCU 5*, the options are Nick Fury or Coulson.


    Valkyrie and MEHulk are both recent releases. Ant-man is not.... but Wasp.

    Coulson could be interesting middle ground I suppose.

    It'll be some random 4 who will be released for the movie.

    I am just flustered with the boosted list in general.... 

    In 4* land we got: Iceman, Black Widow, Iron Fist, Hulk (TA), Wolverine, Iron Man, and Hulk (ME).   Out of the seven 4*, we get 3 that have both Black and Green as their primary active colors.  Out of the remaining 4 "teammates" we get  2 more green and 2 more black.  We also get one guy that is designed to kill green and make red,  and one guy kills red to make blue.   

    I really like all of the boosted characters, individually they are all strong. But just all same time?!

    If you can get him his AP, you only really need Iron Fist though.  I was running Iron Fist, TA Hulk, and Cloak+Dagger for earlier rounds.  I switched Hulk for Vulture in the later ones (he also helps deal with some of the countdowns).

    My alliance chasing last C4rol cover atm. I use Chavez & 2 x5* (whichever have good Health at the time lol). A boost or 2 and Chavez does the rest ;)
