Daken rewards twice in a row, that’s unusual.

They’re running an event where Daken is uber-buffed and required for some nodes.

Kind of justifies doing so.

Exactly? When is the last time the devs have had a good idea?

This all seems pretty fishy.

Get your cheese on, rock out, and Major Boobage.

Don’t worry, we’ll get our share of Spidey rewards soon!

I’d actually not mind that. Curious to see if speccing out of purple makes him any less horrible.

I’ll put my hand up for Spidey rewards too - I’d like to have more than two covers at some point icon_e_biggrin.gif

does anyone know if this ends at noon or midnight eastern time?

Midnight.

Already got attacked three times at 33 points. I guess this is the new normal!

i’ve decided to start this today. Not until later, once I work on the new pve nodes that just popped up. Hoping to reach 25000 points to get ares green and use him in this tournament for the first time teaming up with maybe my Wolverine or Black Widow

You don’t want to use Ares with Wolvie - they both need green and red.

ok scratch that. Ares and Widow then,

Definitely better - and more colours covered.
Widow can heal the damage Ares does with sunder, too.

Edit:
Tried running Hulk/Patch for defense, but that seems to deter absolutely no one.
Trying Hulk/LT now.

Is there any point in starting PvP before the last day?

With the new gentle nudge bracketing mechanic it doesn’t really matter when you enter, if you are destined to get a shitty bracket you’ll get a shitty bracket.
With the way people way down can see you for 40+ points during their late climbs and you won’t be able to do the same if you climb early, I really don’t see a point in even playing before tomorrow…

I still don’t know what these people are talking about with defense actually mattering.

Well it’s less about defense, more about gently nudging people towards the skip button.

Edit:
Ah, screw it, LT/Hood it is.

I enjoy running my Patch/Punisher/IM40 team.
Very offensive and fun to play. My IM40 is not fully leveled yet but effective with the buff.

Unfortunately, I was only matched with full 141 team since the start.
I can handle such teams… but not all the time!
The amount of damage taken drastically slows down my climbing. This MMR change is rough.

already maxed my daken, so not gonna try very hard on this event. unless I decide to start a 2nd daken…
