supergarv said: Of course the devs don‘t „like“ people hoarding. They want players to spend and buy all the time, and always be short of resources.However, the game and its mechanics hugely favor hoarding. The wisest thing would be to hoard for months or years, but that tires people out, and is not really a joyful thing to do.Despite the devs not wanting it, they sure do a bare minimum to work against it. Took many years to finally get saved covers.Some time ago, prestiging chars was rumoured and people hoarded like crazy. To prevent hoarding, communication and positive gameplay loops are required.

Plenty of people were in that situation so the ones who hoarded got a jump-start over the ones who didn’t, assuming play-style and spending was otherwise the same.

Though in 4* land it's Juggs, Juggs and more Juggs.Last season: Wooo I'm one of the few that has a champed Juggs.This season: Dammit. Hey don't know if you got round to this yet but yesterday I sat down and hit sim hard and as I expected Gamora, Rocket and Juggy were devastating. I quickly got to 50 wins without a single health pack. Unfortunately at 1900 points all I see now is Kitty, Rocket and Bishop and I've been pushed back to 1700 so I'm going to just have to grind for the 25 wins for the 2099 cover 😒
