Yikes, just fully covered another 4-star (Winter Soldier) out of sheer luck with a vault token. He gives me five fully-covered 4-stars and not enough ISO to champ even one of them. With another five 4-stars at 12 covers, I’m starting to feel the pinch!
This is not a complaint or a cry for more ISO. Deciding who gets the priority is part of the fun.
Anyone else in a similar boat? I have eight 4-stars champed and a loooong way to go, but I’ll have some decisions to make very, very soon regarding how I spend my precious ISO.
13 Covers
Devil Dino (not a priority)
Drax (I like Drax - medium priority)
Ghost Rider (low priority)
War Machine (medium priority)
Winter Soldier (medium-high priority)
How many 4* champs do you already have? After a certain point, playability takes a backseat to available covers. If you already have most of the top 4*s champed, then go ahead and champ Spider-Woman next.
I have no 4 Star Champs
All of my Max Covered 4’s are either Vaulted or Limited (Devil Dino, Eddie Brock,Hulkbuster,Cyclops,Nova and ChoHulk)
X-23 Needs 1 cover (have her as my only favorited 4, 18 LT’s in no bonuses) (5/4/3)
Kingpin needs 1 Cover but has two powers maxxed (2/5/5)
Red Hulk needs 1 cover (3/5/4)
Peggy will get her 12th Cover (3/3/5), SW already has 12 (3/5/4)
I still have 4 max covered 3’s to Champion (once I feed Thanos 9200 more ISO), plus Hawkguy (2/3/3)
From my experience, I’d say Nova, Moon Knight and X-23 are all worthy ISO investments (too bad none of them are currently available with LTs). Ant-Man has his uses, and does some heavy damage when boosted (He pairs well with Star-Lord: Cheaper costs to do the purple/blue nukes and/or a nice amount of Countdown Tiles for Star-Lord’s Red power)
Sitting on 15 4* champs
18 4*s at 13 covers (including nova, c4rol, dusa, bl4de)
I’m pretty much going to be hoarding for the next decade as I try and accrue 6.3+ million iso D:
Vaults don’t worry me. It’s not like all sources of the old covers have suddenly dried up. I’m hoarding due to a lack of ISO, so I’m not going to be opening any of the newer characters either. My goal remains the same as it always has - champ every flippin one of 'em.
Right now, i have 15 Max covered 4*. I have essentially stopped pulling covers with CP. I still do tokens because i have no willpower, but at least CP can be used to fill in that last cover if needed (i should say, i have never used CP to buy a 4* cover, but having a 120CP buffer makes it a lot easier to pull tokens)
13 champed are mostly old school vaulted characters.
2 are waiting on ISO Moon knight (Will def champ) and Mr. F (maybe someday)
Anyone on Discord probably knows i am getting my 13th Peggy cover with this PVE, so she is my #1 focus right now. Probably Wasp and Star Lord after that.
a lot of my 2*'s are getting ripe for the picking. but i have to be careful now with the Behemoth Burrito.
but yeah, definitely have a firm step into 4* territory, but iso is holding me back.
I have 30 4* champed. Thinking Blade as he is the essential for the next PVE after simulator. I will try for both, but Blade’s first cover expires first.
12 covers: Peggy, Howard, WS, Miles, Nova, Ghost Rider and X-23.
9-11 covers: Everyone but Wasp.
I’ll champ Blade next and probably hoard untill i can finish the remaining 6 3* (Haykeye, Thanos, Spider-Man, Hood, Ragnarok and Iron Man). Depending on upcoming pve rewards my 3* plan will be put on hold.
While i agree to some extent that there is “fun” in the choosing process, it is turning into frustration fast. They need to do something about iso. Make double iso standard, There’s just no way to catch up.
2* Daken leads to 3* Daken which leads to X-23. Cycling your 2* Daken will lead to some covers for her eventually. Plus cycling 2*s is good to do anyway.
That said, I’d really focus on champing Cyclops, if you can. He’s very, very powerful in both PvE and PvP. A self sustaining nuke. Red Hulk and ChoHulk are an awesome pairing, too.
I just champed Bl4de as my 40th 4* champ. Next I’ve got six and a half days to raise the iso for Luke Cage. After that, I need to put a few 100k iso back into my 2* farm because of the 2s I sold for iso to champ recent 4s instead of putting it back in the dupes.
Maybe if I don’t have another 4* dying on the vine by that point I’ll be able to level some 5*s a little.
