    So in realizing that we have a repeated boost week (32 is the exact same as 16), it made me curious to see if there is some sort of a pattern emerging with 5* god boosts. It feels like they are settling on somewhat of a rotation, as characters are getting boosted around the same time (compare week 31 to 15, 30 to 14, and on down the line). Sometimes a new character will enter the rotation and bump someone to the next week. Sometimes a person who should be boosted gets skipped. But all in all, it feels that there is a pattern emerging and it’ll be interesting to see how it unfolds. 
    Based on history I would expect the following folks to show up next to be boosted (a few may get skipped, added or shifted a bit):
    • Captain America (First Avenger)
    • Green Goblin (Norman Osborn)
    • Spider-Man (Back In Black)
    • Black Bolt (Inhuman King)
    • Ghost Rider (Robbie Reyes)
    • Okoye (Warrior General)
    • Wasp (Hope Van Dyne)
    • Archangel (Classic)
    • Captain Marvel (Galactic Warrior)
    • The Hulk (Immortal)
    • Wolverine (Old Man Logan)
    • Beta Ray Bill (Korbinite Warrior)
    • Deadpool (Spirit of Vengeance)
    • Doctor Strange (Sorcerer Supreme)
    Then we will likely go back to this rotation (X’s next to eachother may be interchanged, same with O’s, as I don’t know the exact order with regards to who gets bumped and why). This is a very rough list. 
    • Killmonger (Erik Stevens) [X]
    • Magneto (Age of Apocalypse) [X]
    • Electro (Francine Frye) [O]
    • Ronan (The Accuser) [O]
    • Storm (Ororo Munroe) [X]
    • Jean Grey (Phoenix) [X
    • Iceman (Bobby Drake) [O]
    • Kingpin (Spider-Verse) [O]
    • Loki (God of Mischief) [X]
    • Apocalypse [?]
    • Daredevil (Matt Murdock) [O]
    • Professor X (Classic) [O]
    • Star-Lord (Awesome Mix Volume 2) [O]
    • Onslaught (Psionic Entity) [X]
    • Colossus (Phoenix Five) [O]
    • Gambit (Classic) [O]
    • Wolverine (Samurai Daken) [O]
    • Black Panther (Civil War) [X]
    • Odin (All-Father) [O]
    • Jessica Jones (Alias Investigations) [O]
    • Scarlet Witch (WandaVision) [O]
    • Yellowjacket (Darren Cross) [X]
    • Cable (Nathan Summers) [O]
    • Thor (Gladiator) [O]
    • Hawkeye (Clint Barton) [?]
    • Kitty Pryde [?]
    • Cyclops (Phoenix Five) [X]
    • Adam Warlock (Infinity Watch) [O]
    • Carnage (Prophet of Knull) [O]
    • The Hulk (Bruce Banner) [O]
    • Havok (Classic) [X]
    • Doctor Doom (God Emperor) [O]
    • Thanos (The Mad Titan) [O]
    • Yelena Belova (Black Widow) [O]
    • Deadpool (Spirit of Vengeance) [?]
    • Beta Ray Bill (Korbinite Warrior) [?]
    • Captain America (Infinity War) [X]
    • Rescue (Pepper Potts) [X]
    • Spider-Man (Peter Parker) [X]
    • Shang-Chi (Origin) [X]
    • Doctor Octopus (Classic) [O]
    • Iron Man (Mark XLVI) [O]
    • Mister Sinister (Nathaniel Essex) [O]
    • Silver Surfer (Skyrider) [O]
    • Black Widow (Natasha Romanoff) [X]
    • Heimdall (The Gatekeeper) [X]
    • Hela (Goddess of Death) [X]
    • Knull (King in Black) [O]

    There does seem to be a pattern, but it's not *quite* consistent enough to plan around it, and I hope it stays that way!

    If the same guys are always boosted together, it makes some guys way better (like if Onslaught is always boosted with PX) and some guys way worse (like if a hypothetical repeating boost week was SW Colossus Killmonger, nobody would ever use Killmonger -- even though he's great boosted).

    Hawkeye got an extra boost like 4 weeks ago, so makes sense he’s getting skipped this week. Black Widow, Heimdall and Hela are being boosted together again however. Knull who was scheduled to be boosted next week is getting the call up this week (which I take it means he’s ahead of IW Cap, Goblin and Black Suit in the “rotation”’)

    If that's the case, it's imperative to get Adam Warlock champed for me. This is one of the most challenging boosted pairs that I've experienced.

    Thank you for compiling this list. Some interesting notes:

    1. There does seem to be somewhat of a 16-ish week rotation. If it's any kind of predictor, for week 34 you're possibly looking at

    CapAm-1st Avenger
    Green Goblin
    Spider-man-BIB
    and....Wasp? as a possible 4th. (Or Sersi, depending on when she enters the rotation.)

    2. Weeks 19-22 are interesting because they alternated between OML and GRRR each week, but that was right when they were tweaking GRRR's abilities/stats, so they likely wanted before and after data those weeks.

    3. Wasp, who many regard as one of the worst 5*s, has only been boosted once (week 19), whereas GRRR has been 4X, and many have been boosted 3X.

    4. Okoye and iHulk have also only been boosted once each, and thankfully it was on different weeks (19 and 20, respectively.) Although if the devs stick to the pseudo-rotation, they should both be coming up in January.

    5. The 4 latest 5*s have yet to be boosted, which is understandable.

    It seems to me that when new 5* characters leave LL, they get their first god-boost immediately afterward. At least, I think I'm remembering that right..? It seemed that way for Electro, Odin, and Shang-Chi. When Ultron leaves LL on the Monday, I imagine he'll have a god-boost that Thursday. Then Sersi should follow suit in February.

    (Thanks for the list, Daredevil217 - and your 5* rankings, too, which I still have bookmarked and regularly look at!)

    Ah, you are correct. Ultron is first. And I think you're right about the timing, too. I seem to recall the others being boosted shortly after leaving LL too.

    It was Electro Week 23 10/21/2021

    Odin Week 27 11/18/2021

    Shang-Chi Week 31 12/16/2021

    Now that I'm sat at a computer, I'll go as far as to guess the boost starting dates for Ultron, Gamora and Sersi and even Big Wheel - through the magic of CALENDAR.

    Ultron Week 35 01/13/2022

    Gamora Week 39 02/10/2022

    Sersi Week 43 03/10/2022 (March! I don't calendar well without a calendar!)

    Big Wheel Week 47 04/07/2022

    Omega Red Week 51 05/05/2022

    Edit: Probably meant to put 2022 instead of 2021.

    As expected, we got Cap/Goblin/Spidey from week 18.  Knull was this week so we have Wasp as well, which means she’s ahead of Okoye, Robbie and Bolt in the rotation. Slowly, we will figure out this boost list lol.
