I have a decently developed roster with 25 champed 4s. I have some covers dying on the vine and not sure what the best approach would be. I can probably get enough ISO (a bunch of my 2 farm is close to ready to pick) to champ Gwenpool and Bl4de or Thano5. I know Thano5 plays well with BP, my Panther is at 3/4/2 and is favorited for Bonus Hero purposes. I mostly do PVP with some PVE thrown in for new events, chasing a cover in prog or I’m straight up bored.
Would champing a single 5* mean I was doomed to forever see champed 5s in my queue? I love me some Thano5 but don’t want it to ruin the game experience for me. If I champ Gwen and Blade I would have a better shot at having a champed/boosted 4 and they both seem decent boosted.
Help break me out of my analysis paralysis
Edit: Just pulled my 13th cover for Coulson if that changes anything
I always tell my alliancemates to champ the higher tier before the lower ones. More bang for your buck and if/when PvE scaling gets tied to SCL permanently, the 5* will help you a lot more than a champed 4*.
After champing Thanos (next highest 5* is OML at 360), my pvp queue went from boosted champed 4s and under leveled 5s to single champed 5* with boosted champed 4* (and the occasional Peggy/Carol/IM40).
Twin champed 5s find me regularly.
Hitting 900 can sometimes be harder than before, but mostly Thanos is an utter beast, and I can bludgeon my way over 900. He also makes hops faster.
Every fight in pvp feels like it needs Thanos now, and while I can beat any node with 4s in Pve (34 champed), I tend to rely on Thanos for the speed factor.
I don’t regret levelling him though. It has changed the game experience for me, which has kept it fresh, and made me focus on new strategies.
I totally have to change my advice from that I said previously. I have just found myself in the peculiar predicament where I can champ 2 3*'s, R&G and Star Lord, OR 1 4* in in Carol Danvers. I would need to buy a cover for her at 120 CP’s and then save up the ISO to pay for it all and I have 13 days to make it happen. I think I would rather have CD now since the covers for the other two are much easier to come by.
Champ those 3s will give you two lts plus 6 pulls of classics for that 120 cp cover. Carol is great, but unless you’re in a 5/5/2 situation, odds are you’ll finish her without having to waste so many resources.
Though it’s your cp so do whatever you want. I personally feel that using 120 cp on non vaulted characters is an uncessary step except.in that 552 situation.
