I pulled for the last set of LL until I had the next out 5* champed, which gave me everyone but the last cover for Shang-Chi. I'll be able to champ him with shards in his next event.I used my remaining 2500 CP in classics, and got a bunch of older 5* covers that moved them much closer to champing. I was able to champ Cap-FA shortly afterward with shards (not that I'll use him much). Several others are within a cover to champ. Another bonus that I didn't expect, was that every other 5* cover for your 5* champ is worth an LT or 25 CP, so it's essentially a free pull. Point being, that this method really seemed to move up my roster.Next step is to see if I can maintain this pace and have enough LT/CP to pull from the LL when Shang-Chi rotates out, and then have CP left over to pull for more classics. Sitting at 32 LT and 319 CP right now. 2500cp into classics?!? Team classics unite!!!About Cap, and the others who are mediocre but not awful...you'll use them, when they're boosted. The boosts just completely change the calculus on the mediocre older characters. It doesn't fix the terrible ones, but there are only a few of those.Before the boosts, it was insane to spend into classics, and nobody did it (I did it because I'm a contrarian, and I was hoping we'd get boosts someday). After the boosts it's actually a viable strategy. It's not *better* than hoarding/going all in on the meta characters, but it's a viable alternative.

ThaRoadWarrior said: Thought it might be interesting to figure out my pulls per day. I went back to Electro dropping out of latest on 10/18/2021, and in that time I’ve earned 41 latest tokens pretty much all through champ rewards except any one or two I’d have landed from personal progression in a boss event. I’ve pulled 50 classics since then also, which equates to 1,000 cp earned through full progression in most events and champ levels/daily rewards/alliance mates spending occasionally. So in the last 22 days, that works out to 3.68 possible Latest pulls per day, however, since I’ve been getting 20% more bang for my CP buck, surely a sizable chunk of that pull rate was due to pulling over there. Interesting nonetheless though.
