Hi Everyone,
Here are the event details for the upcoming Come And Get Me boss event! Gather your Alliance and see if you can take down the mighty Thanos!
Did you forget to add Red ISO prizes?
I like the character list. I just Champed Yondu, and the Quake covers will get her to 5/3/4.
For this run of Come And Get Me, it will still be a Mystery Booster, however the team will be looking into adding Red Iso-8 for future boss events
G4ocket and G4mora boosted? Well this event got a whole lot simpler.
@Brigbydo you have rundown of thanos boss powers will be?
Not even surprised…
Just feels like they are trolling at this point
Not just them. EVERY Guardian except 5tarlord. So when quickly trying to down boss, leave Gamora out (stun useless) and use Drax or Yondu instead. And damaged Thor with his passive boosted by those Grocket strikes? Delicious.
AND tokens.
I know they’re trying to roll this out slow, but we’re still stuck in that phase where it’s so slow it feels non-existent. Even one stupid basic token would be phenomenal compared to where we are now.
And Boss events have always been horrible about purple ISO. I’m sure the devs think this is balanced by giving out more 4* covers (especially since they updated progression to give out another 4*, that is GREATLY appreciated) and Legendary tokens, and the math may say they’re right, but Boss events are still regarded as being horrible for purple ISO income (which is bad when you consider that you need this resource for some 99% of the game), and it’s only going to get worse if Boss events become known as bad for TWO kinds of ISO and Support tokens.
Given that this is the first run of this (I imagine) big tie-in event, I’m a little surprised Quake is the 4* in the round rewards and not, say, a more desirable or newer character people would be excited to chase.
But this isn’t the first run of a big tie in event. This is the same Thanos event we played last year for 5lords release.
@Brigby, is the fight the same as the previous one with infinity stones?
**I really don’t remember this event

Copy/pasted from last year’s thread…
Thanos (Infinity Saga)
- Doesn’t make matches
- Infinity Gauntlet
- Black Passive
- If there isn’t already one on the board, create a 2-turn Gauntlet tile that charges and destroys the entire row, dealing massive damage and gaining triple AP.
- The Gauntlet tile can’t be matched and won’t fall- Infinite Power
- 8 Purple AP
- Creates a Purple Countdown tile.
- While this tile is on the board, Thanos (Infinity Saga) deals 15% extra damage and no tiles may be destroyed or changed except by Thanos (Infinity Saga) (tiles may still be matched away)- Infinity Gems
- Green Passive
- Thanos cannot be Stunned
- At the beginning of the battle, place one of each Infinity Gem on the board. Destroying the Gem gives you the following effect:
- Time Gem: Creates a random duplicate non-Purple Infinity Gem
- Mind Gem: Generate 30 AP of a random color
- Reality Gem: Give a burst of healing to your entire team, restoring them to full health.
- Power Gem: Deal a massive amount of damage to Thanos (a little more than third of his max health).
- S****pace Gem: Create 2 Critical tiles
- Soul Gem: Destroy all Green tiles, dealing damage but not generating AP
A little off-topic, I guess, but: Yondu is really a beast when boosted. His initial blue hit does a TON of damage, then the residual is pretty awesome as icing. He’s not unlike Mordo, overall. Mordo has more health and all three colors are good on offense, but Yondu’s blue is more reliable than Mordo’s contingent purple. I haven’t often been been able (or needed, frankly) to trigger Yondu’s yellow heal and definitly haven’t yet needed to find a teammate to leverage his black.
I said those two because they happened to be listed right next to each other, but you are correct about the other Guardians being a better fit for a boss fight. I might be running Yondu myself.
What are the other 5*'s in the “Covert Ops” drop list?
I’ll go out on a limb and think it’s other 5* Avengers.
So choices would be IM, Natasha, or Super Soldier (which won’t be a choice).
It’s Black Widow and Hawkeye.
This happened? I don’t remember this at all. Weird.
Is it? Maybe I assumed too much from some of the articles, but it sounded like the Infinity Stones and Black Order would all be supports, which I assumed would be employed in the boss event as well. Maybe this was giving too much credit, though.
At first I was hoping for a new event. And red iso and support tokens. Then I noticed the same name for the event as previous runs, & no information about the event coming from the powers that be…so the smart money is on them taking the easy out and just giving us the old event. Hope I’m wrong. But sure doesn’t look like it.
