fractalvisions said: I was very pleased with her, Polaris and Grocket for the first challenge node of Webbed Wonder. I managed to get through all 4 clears with them and I don't think I even needed to use any boosts.
Sekilicious said: So the next is Deadpool vs. MPQ. With Kitty and Polaris boosted I decided to try it. I expect to eat a bunch of health packs lol.
hothie said: I've often thought about keeping a play diary as well, more for myself than for others.I'm still a few months away from being able to attempt SCL10 (although Kitty is 1/0/1, and I don't yet have BRB, so will be trying to get him before then. I just need more Throg covers for rewards. ) So I'll be watching to see what you face and how you are able to handle it.Great work so far!
Sekilicious said: Only got top 300 (208) in DPvMPQ because of difficulty with the challenge and 5e nodes so I missed out on an extra 50 Kate Pride shards. I’m not too worried.Started Meet Rocket and Groot. It is pretty easy as there are not a lot of tile movers, though I definitely miss Kitty and Polaris being boosted. 1* Juggernaut, boosted to lvl510 after the third clear, has 132k health and is flanked by 90k Maggia Muscle. Juggernaut got an Unstoppable Crash off but it was too late by that time and only fed BRB’s green and Polaris’s stun. Kitty died once to The Hood shooting her with his twin pistols. BRB and Polaris avenged her and I stopped being complacent about stunning him first. In the Challenge node, Fatpin killed BRB in the first clear with a critical causing cascade. It was annoying so might go back later.

Jimsta_rooney said: It's never a good idea to play in the 1st, it's mainly made up of players trying to get t10 scores. 5 flips enough times that you can get enough points in 1st and possibly 2nd flip to make progression and get a decent ranking.
Jimsta_rooney said: I normally go in 1,i think 1 and 4 are possibly the most popular ones. I used to go at the start because I felt that I needed to get as much points as possible for my alliance and scll10 was still quite new to me. I wasn't sure if I would even get progression. I would often get t150-200 but I could see there were plenty of points to be had for progression and for the alliance.So decided to try the flip. Same effort got me t50 and t50 subs. It's a massive difference and over time will greatly improve your roster. S1 flips quite a few times too,i1st flip is normally within a couple of hours. Ifyou ever need help with flips I'm on line edvader

Oh yeah, each slice of each event can only hold 1000 players. When it reaches 1000 a new event for that slice is created (this is the ‘flip’) for new players entering. The newly created event generally has fewer, and potentially less engaged, players so it can be easier to place. The spreadsheet records when each slice event reaches 1000.

So it is often better to wait until after it flips to start playing, then? Because I assume we all choose the same start time, but when you get into it is what actually determines who you're up against for placement rewards, then. Ok. Thanks.

Ifyou ever need help with flips I'm on line edvader Do you watch the spreadsheet then? Maybe I will bookmark the one @fractalvisions posted. *edit - I saw Slice 1 flipped so entered late. Hopefully it goes well. The first 3 clears were pretty easy with BRB and Kitty doing most of the hard work. As always, Pick-2 was with BRB and Polaris.
