so M.O.D.O.K. Marks the 199th playable character we’ve gotten. Next up is the 200th! Will it be special? Probably a 5*. Anyone want to wager a guess on who it’ll be? Another version of a character we already have? Brand new character? Playable version of one of the non playable characters?!?
I reckon they’ll have completely forgotten. They have more than enough to do with this new system, and it’s not like other milestones have gotten a big fanfare, have they?
Just out of curiosity, who was the 100th character, and was it a big fuss?
If my notes are right, the two Dr Stranges were 114/115, and number 100 would be… one of the Civil War releases. Something isn’t quite right in my notes. I have dates down that says we got Winter Soldier, 5* Iron Man, and 5* Cap on the same date. But that date is a week before the first run of Civil War, and I don’t remember seeing release tokens prior to the actual event. So I think Winter Soldier is 99th, and then we got a dual 5-star release for 100/101 when Civil War went live.
What could Iron Patriot even do? Is it worth rolling him in to the version that’s still supported?
edit just found some videos - he seems like he was pretty wild. I’d probably still play him. That move where you drop 6 crits anwyhere you want seems pretty OP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ShJtJYy1b0
With Modok as #200, my notes would have Winter Soldier as #100, released 2016/04/28.
If you only count characters for the mobile version and hence have Modok as #199, then #100 would have been either of five-star Iron Man or five-star Captain America, released simultaneously on 2016/05/05 for Civil War.
We currently have 38 fives, 92 fours, 47 threes, 14 twos, and 8 ones on mobile, including limited characters = 199.
Personally I’d say that still leaves room for #200 HYPE if you want to get worked up for it, especially since that counting method puts the Civil War characters at #100.
