So - those of us playing this game for a long time know that Anniversary means Devil Dino covers but could we maybe get a few more Taskmaster covers this year? I know - probably all the rewards are decided and this is too late BUT…think about it! This really is the year of Taskmaster! Major villain in an MCU Movie (well when it finally comes out)? CHECK! Villain in a major Marvel video game? CHECK! Wears a face mask so is Covid-19 compliant? CHECK!
So whaddayasay?
How about new boss event, new Story event, an updated DPDQ, updated 4* and 5* feeders, round 2 of balance changes (talking about buffs Banner, Wasp, rescue, etc.).
Taskmaster is my favourite Marvel villain so that is all I am asking for. Sure, he is Limited and so basically useless but I would like to champ that uselessness please! I have the Dinosaur champed, I have the Duck fully covered and am also quite happy to collect the Ham - all of them though are/have been available (without needing to spend actual £££) in other events or Daily resupply but Tasky is limited to an extra limited degree. Like white fruit Skittles! Set him free!
Taskmaster DOES seem extra-limited, even though I managed to get him over the champ hump before Ham somehow. But even though Ham is “howard the duck limited,” the fact i’m running a largely junior alliance means we’ve never once gotten far enough in that alliance event to get to the Ham node. In fact this most recent run of Sinister 6 is the first time we’ve ever landed the 3rd 4* cover, so that was cool.
I do still want new modes and events though; keep things fresh.
When I started playing it was just Devil Dinosaur and I would get way more 4*'s than any other time for all the extra tokens, etc. Now the anniversary is a vault with almost nothing 4* that isn’t limited characters, so the rewards largely suck
DD was the only limited when I started too but I think my first year they added Howard.
I didn’t get to experience the first Anniversary but have been here for the rest. To be fair they have always pushed DD quite a lot at Anniversary but Taskmaster is only about 2 years old.
Y’all remember that time Devil Dinosaur got a rebalance to be less useful? That sure was a choice made by somebody that got greenlit by other people and then tasked some more people to get implemented.
Yeah, that was a prime example of MPQ changing a character nobody requested in a way that affected the only thing the character had going for them. I bet Devil and Kingpin have a beer every Friday talking about the old days.
