    Riri's pvp is different as well. In game event shows riri shards for placement, but it says ihulk here.

    His cp cost on the offers page was cut down from 500 to 250(still a terrible use of resources imo). Isn't that change early too?

    500 is questionable but 250 is a deal. If you are working based on LL pulls it is equivalent to 10 pulls for the specific cover you want. You step around rng and save time.
    Any time a 5* I’m interested in champing is available for 250 cp I jump on it.

    The change is early, but I think this has to do with Kamala being pushed back about 2 weeks. So we are seeing a lot of different progression issues right now.

    I truly wish I had taken the option to purchase this cover for the 250CP as I just need one cover + the shards I already have to champ him. Of course instead RNG has screwed me over and I have gone 0 for 35 pulls in Latest instead (I also need just one She Hulk cover) and there is an excellent chance I may end up missing out. Just shows that sometimes pulling isn't the best option vs buying.

    You also lose nine 4* covers and the potential rewards those would bring.

    This is not a good deal unless it happens to be the one color cover you still need to get it champed

    Or you hit a lil hot streak and pull down three or four 5*s, who knows?

    If it's the final cover needed to champ a character I agree with you guys as well as daz, but would add a caveat that it depends on the individual players situation in regards to what roster goals they have.

    For me currently, I need to be as judicious as possible with cp, so I would go the slower route of shardgeting. It's nice having a few options to get it done.

    Lol... Wait, is a multiple 5* hot streak a thing that happens?

    9 random 4* covers is not a big deal to me, there are over 130 4's and getting a 4 you are targeting is basically a 1/13 shot. The general roster progression you get for a 4* is pretty low if you are a 5* player.

    But, if you are in the 10-12 cover range for a classic legend and it is a cover you need 250 cp is a good deal. Or if it is a classic you really want to start building it can be the only way to realistically get covers for that character.
    Right now, I have Onslaught targeted and he has 8 covers. If he showed up for 250 cp I would buy it instantly. It's a time and resource save.

    Since I am nearing the endgame of fully-covering all the 5s, I get the HFH offer for every Classic 5* that I don't have finished. Doesn't matter if it's their 13th cover or their 4th.
    I don't even think twice about it anymore. In fact, I plan it months in advance.
    I only wish I could get more than one, as I have ample resources to do so.

    There doesn’t seem to be any details about the Boss event.

    The boss event is Ultron and the teaser is they reworked it is my impression. We will see I guess.

  • DAZ0273

    Hmm...I wonder if Ultron's bombs can get xplodeyed by Mighty Thor's passive? Are they considered special tiles? If that was the case I could seem them having to revamp.

  • skittledaddy

    If not, the cascades she causes will likely help Ultrons Bombs drop faster.

    She may not target them like she doesn't chasm tiles but she does still destroy them. So use Jane Riri and Storm to flood the board with charged tiles.

    Might thor probably the worst person you can bring against ultron. Cascade those bombs all the way to the bottom

    A request for these updates. Can you mark which pvp events are in season and which are not. Season is ending Saturday so is Punisher pvp in season or not? New season marked as Wednesday, so is the 2nd pvp of the week in season or not?

    A dev on Reddit said the Punisher PVP is not part of the season. This will make it hard for me to reach 10000 points.
