    Yeah, I've never seen a Legendary Store that good, ever.  I wish they could have given us some warning though!

    EDIT: I'm sure the buy clubs are going nuts.

    “Warning”.  Man. Good joke.

     Not me, I have all three champed. Excellent vault.
    Add some champ levels then.

    It's a trap.

    Which trap are you referring to?....
    Everyone spends their CP this week and then next week they announce the new meta breaking 5*Marvel?
    Or the buy clubs go nuts for this (adding more champ levels) but then the game shuts down next week?

    :smiley:

    I spent 800cp and got 5 5*s. Not disappointed with that. Makes a change for me with these stores, I usually get a shocking return.

    Failed miserably with 200 CP and then got a bonus Thor green from a regular LT.

    I guess that is ok.

    The game is expected to run for another 10 years, so I rule that out. 

    That leaves 5* Captain Marvel. What if her abilities consist of the best abilities of these three?  B)

    Or the two 5*s after that, which will come out around Avengers: Endgame, or the 5* after that, which should be alongside Far From Home.

    Next four 5*s are all solid candidates for "really good" characters (in order to maximize the benefits of having new MCU films for cross-promotion), so now seems like a good time to drain resource stockpiles (by offering a desirable deal like this one) so people will have to spend to capitalize on upcoming releases.

    So even if Kingpin/Doom/CaptainMarvel doesn't make people dive into chasing Latest tokens, maybe a Doom/CM/Endgame token will. Or a CM/Endgame/Endgame? (or whatever curveball they throw if we only get one Endgame 5* character?) Gives them multiple swings in an effort to knock one out of the park, so to speak.

    LOL,  this is gonna force people to really balance out how they spend for this vault and 5* cap Marvel.  Make no mistake about it,  Thor, Okoyoe, Kitty are the 3 of the best 5* in the game period.  and 5* Captain Marvel could be the meta breaker that we all expect.

    People need to be really smart in how balance out the covers especially if they are trying to maintain relative color priority.

    The "what if" automatically makes this vault appealing to many people. There is no "what if" in this vault. There are 3 characters who take up 3 of the top 5 best 5* characters in the game. 

    This is a great vault for anyone looking to strengthen their 5* game.

    (I have no hoard and will continue to pull classics though lol.)

    35 pulls and only 2 5* covers, RNG is not on my side today...

    How about this:

    Black Passive: While Marvel is above 50% health, each turn destroy 2 red and 2 yellow tiles, generating AP. 

    7 Red: Add 5 Black strike tiles of strength 200. 

    7 Yellow: Heal Marvel 2500 health for each friendly strike tile.

    Yellow Passive: Each turn increase the strength of all strike tiles by 200 for each black AP you have.

    Might have bought one if I saw this earlier.  In general I'm on the fence.  My primary goal is to champ all characters and I'm not as worried about adding levels beyond.  Both Okoye & Thor are champed and Kitty is 4/4/4 with her set a BH.  So I'll get her eventually.  I'm tempted to try and pull for at least the one Kitty, but I also don't want to miss Cable like I did for Kitty (Cable is currently 4/3/4).

    Also I am a little bummed.  When I saw the title I was assuming it was a permanent edition since it's feature add week.  Maybe it will be but rotate characters every few days or every week or something.  Hey I can hope right?

    I almost fell off my chair laughing.  Even if they actually expected that at one point or still expect it, it won't happen.  As someone else said the game already feels like it's jumped the shark.  With the poor foresight and planning of the last several features I can't imagine the game actually lasting that long.... That said The Simpsons jumped the shark in what like 2001 and they're still holding on....  I guess it doesn't say 10 years of being a good game....

    Lots of FOMO in this thread. Well, predictive FOMO at any rate...

    This store is, on its own merits, very very good. Unless you really fear that whoever the next 5-Star is will immediately obsolete Thor, Okoye and Kitty... just go for it. If I had a CP hoard, I would.

    What if Okoye gets a nerf right after this? or Kitty?

    Not likely seeing as these 3 are very popular but thanos still has highest usage rates according to the devs.

    I would see it more likely that they normalize the match damage across the 5* tier. Then see where that lands players usage.
