That’s funny, I was actually thinking something similar. I figured I would spend my 40 Sweet ![token_taco.png](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/2X/b/bb11dea4bf5e9250683befe5f035ff6b60c253db.png) on the Scarlet Witch week and save my Savory ![token_taco.png](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/2X/b/bb11dea4bf5e9250683befe5f035ff6b60c253db.png) to 300. There’s no way I could actually save two stock piles of 300 tokens with feeling the urge to open them but 1 is suffice. ---

I’ll continue to spend my savory tokens the week they’re earned. No way I can hoard two different types either. ---

You should spend the tokens if you need healthpacks, while you should save the other type to open at 300 to get everything that you want… if you want that, otherwise healthpacks might be more valuable when you need them most. ---

realistically you only need to save about 100 tokens to get a 4\*, someone on forums did the math fyi and stuff ---

Already up to about 70 Taco Tokens. At 600, I’ll use them until I get the 4 stars I want, then continue save. That could be 1 use, or all 300, but at least I’m guaranteed to get them. ---

As a way of breaking it up a little bit, I’m working one type of token to 150 before saving for the other. That way, every five months, you’d have a set of tokens to use up. This all assumes they don’t change the system before that… ---

Remember, DO NOT spend them if they are not in current rotation as the ones out of rotation reset every time you pull one, every single out of rotation taco is a 1/300 chance. ---

I decided to hoard, but then I needed health packs, started opening and got a 4\* on my second taco… lesson is why hoard when you can just be lucky. ---

I’m hoarding everything since the start. I do not need the 3\* enough to take a chance and when I’have 600 tokens I’ll be wanting the 4\*. ---

In my case, I’ve got a pretty wide roster.

Since I’m still working on my 3\* roster; I decided to spend whenever a vault offered appropriate covers. Think about it: by the time you’ll get your 300 tokens, you will have gained 300 3\* covers (that’s 23 heroes fully covered). The 3\* token you will get from the vault will probably be useless. Also you will be 3-4 roster slots behind, on average. And also, on average, spending sooner will get you the same amount of 4\* covers and you will get them sooner. ---

> [@FrenchTomato](#): > > Think about it: by the time you’ll get your 300 tokens, you will have gained 300 3\* covers Uh… You get two tacos per day and only one 3\* cover. ![icon_e_wink.gif](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/2X/5/5d51b9f29c53f0863247b0e9a4faa659012932d1.gif) So you’ll have 600 tacos and 300 covers. Also, some of the people that are hoarding are doing so because they already have all the 3_s covered and are instead looking for the 4_s. ![icon_e_biggrin.gif](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/2X/9/9da0ce06e62533a4e29efe560c9926ab2566ea47.gif) Cheers, - T ---

Different persons, different needs, different strategy I guess. > And also, on average, spending sooner will get you the same amount of 4\* covers and you will get them sooner. > I’m sorry about that.
