    As with the Sneak Peek, I've split this into a text version under the spoiler tag that has massively stretched text due to a current forum bug. Below it is an image version with "proper" formatting. Apologize for the inconvenience!

    I'm interested in the three mechanically different PvPs. Could this be the reincarnation of Fight for Wakanda PvE?

    Will the 'additional Spider-Ham shards' add up to a full cover?

    Fingers crossed that the "more costumes" includes at least one in progression rewards. That's a thing you guys did one time, remember? You could even bring back an old costume that used to be for sale and give people a second chance to get it. Cause art assets don't have expiration dates, you know. And it would be super nice if we could just get some costumes available that don't have their price jacked up by being put in a bundle with other items.

    Excited about Holiday stuff, especially since it's starting so early, but "costumes for cash" is a consistently disappointing aspect of this game, and basically the opposite of a holiday anything. Especially with how we can't even get so much as a side-eyed glance as a response, much less a post with words and thoughts.

    Anyways, here's the ever wishful-thinking comment about a return of Crash of the Mad Titan, complete with LTs. 
    Its the holiday season. Its the time of the year for the players to give the devs presents!  :D

    That comment that popped up during anniversary didn't half give me a chuckle.

    Couple questions. (Not sure if these have been asked.)
    1. Are shards/might tokens gonna be added to vaults now?
    2. Shards/mighty tokens added to pvp progression? In the 1100 point?

    Looking forward to the holidays with the game, it's the time I really look forward and on events and gifts. Best time of the year to be playing the game. Along with anniversary of coarse.

    I hope the 12 days pve offers a 4* cover along the way, thinking back to last year I think it was a taskmaster cover that was awarded.  If we are going from full covers to fractions of covers under the shard system, then I am very much saddened.
    If we do get the (full) 4* cover plus these shards, then I'll be less skeptical of the new system and how rewards will be rolled out.

    Please replace the red iso with mighty tokens (vault does not even have support tokens), at this points almost everyone has their useful supports already maxed out. Cheers!

    *cough* FEEDERS *cough*

    Is this Holiday Season special enough for a feeder?  I mean the 6 year Anniversary of this game wasn’t so not sure what constitutes a special enough event to make it happen.

    Side note, how many feeders are we down verse Last Year?  Do you know

    If you want to compare calendar years, in 2018 we had 17 feeders established.

    It was a bit inflated, maybe, by them leaning into the MCU 10th Anniversary, but I think people were pretty happy with one a month, which would of course have led to 12 for the year.

    In 2019 we have had 4 to date.
    Since champ rewards for 4* characters have been introduced in November of 2017 we have gotten 26 feeders. 

    So people are not happy with one a month. Because that's 26 months.

    Took me a minute, but my Thursday morning brain got there....

    The reintroduction of feeders would go a long way (with me, anyway) towards replacing some of the progress lost from shards replacing BHs.

    New feeders would be great. I just get a bit annoyed with the "one a month is all we want" crowd. Because since its introduction we have one per month right now.

    Then put me in the "every classic 5* should have a feeder" crowd.

    I'd also like to encourage the devs to consider each 3* uniquely feeding two 4*s instead of one.

    Maybe one a month was not sustainable as it would have eventually lead to them catching up.  It was a nice rate.  I don't think it's wrong to complain about something going from once a month to "Holy Cow! So much of what I like!" to "it's been 5 months, what's up?".

    I guess we will see what they do next since they've said we'll get them again.  If they start giving out colorless covers via shards maybe the wait will be worth it.

    I think all 5's should have feeders. I am ready for more. I just dont feel they are being unfair or have abandoned feeders. If we get one this month that will put us just a tad over 1 per month since the beginning of feeders.

    I like the idea of 3* feeders giving 6 covers like 4*'s give 6 covers. I would be ok though if it was for one character and not divided between 2.

    Come to think of it, instead of adding 3 covers of 4*, they might replace some other non-4* cover rewards with shards of 4* instead. They might also replace othdr rewards with shards of 5*, in addition to 6 covers of 5*.

    But that's what I'm saying. We are at 1 a month since they added feeders right now. They were much faster than one a month but players keep pushing the idea that it was 1 per month when in reality that has never been true until right now. I look forward to seeing what else they will bring.

    26 feeders in 26 months is where the numbers stand today.
