I don’t know about meta but unless they really are abandoning MCU release schedules, then either the next 5 or the one after could have a strong chance of being Shang-Chi. It would be a bit of a fail if he isn’t at least in the upper good range. You would think low ap fast damage powers and perhaps a passive counter attack of some kind, maybe offence based special tiles. So he could be a shift away from the defensive trend. Or I guess he could end up with a 14ap power that creates a trap tile that has to be matched only by ninja’s for low damage.
Shang Chi reminds me of Iron Fist because their moves are pretty alike. So, having 5* version of Shang Chi with some abilities similar to 4* Iron Fist aren’t that bad.
It took me thirty-five pulls to get an Electro, but I ended up with a total of seven usable (four Ronan, two Knull, one Electro) 5* covers, so I wasn’t too upset.
One thing that mildly amused me was I finally drew my 13th cover for Talos. He seemed so bad that I never bothered playing in any tournament where he was awarded, so through totally “natural” cover fall he ended up fully covered at 4/5/4 after uhh.. nearly two and a half years?
Same. I get 2 covers on them all from SCL 10 anyways. I’m not thrilled with Ronan, Electro or Odin enough to bust a hoard for any of them.
I currently have about 300 total pulls between LL and CP and considering that I likely won’t be pulling for at least another 3-4 months will go ahead and do about 50 pulls from the Odin, Thanos and Doom store as my Doom and Thanos are both lower level.
So I really lucked out in a couple things recently.
first, because of the Electro/Odin thing going on in Webbed Wonders, I was just planning on eating that. No real harm done, still would’ve reached max progression. But I’ve been opening LTs as I get them and pulled an Electro. Nice.
then later tonight, I pull an Odin from his special store.
So I just recently champed my Knull, and now I got the next two 5s. It’s like the universe is screaming at me to skip Ronan. If I just stopped now, I would have him at seven covers when he leaves.
I think I can live with that. Except opening up at the very least LTs is such a motivation to keep grinding. I hate hoarding because of that. It takes half the fun out of the game for me,
edit: the other thing that makes me want to keep pulling LTs is that his blue power seems maybe a little fun. Maybe next boosted PVE with him will really be the decider,
but on other hand, one factor against is that he seems like a pretty easy character to stretch a feeder on, MCU has Secret Invasion and Captain Marvel 2 coming up. Out of all that, someone’s gotta feed him.
Only took 6 pulls to get Electro, then I realised I already have a cover
So forgetful and could have saved 6 latest tokens for when Odin entered. Could have been worst
Eight pulls to get her rostered. Good enough.
