Get used to that feeling, the problem will only increase as your roster advances.

Getting at least 20k a day. I need to show more patience do I can champ and progress some of the characters I have that need over 70k to lvl up. I know I can get 100k in a week and 200 in about 10 days with shield intercepts, PVPs, selling champed 2* and such.
But my pocket gets itchy.
I typically save until I have 700-800k iso that way im prepared for anything, i can champ two 4* s or one 5*. I don’t pull tokens until I have built up enough iso to do something with it. And it’s good to always keep at least 4 2* champs on rotation. I us mags hawk and storm . As soon as they are 144 I build and champ a dupe . Once the dupe reaches lvl 120 I sell the max champ
At the time of sale, you lose 9,530 ISO. However, over the course of leveling back to 144, you get 5K back over just selling covers. Plus you get 3x 3* covers, which if we’re just talking ISO, are 500 each, 5x heroics, which are 250-1000 ISO each if selling the covers, 375 HP, which can be cashed in for 3.75 heroics which, again, are 250-1000 ISO each. If you sell all those covers for ISO, you come out about even, and with a handful of CP. But those guys feed 3* that are probably champed, which are a better return on ISO for champ levels. Those champs feed 4* champs. It all feeds the system.
Play three hours, make around 10,000 ISO per hour, I guess.
Tokens, Bonus Rewards (if you pay at least once per month), SCL, championing, node completion rewards, etc.
May I ask why you would want this? I got 900.000 Iso at the moment with no idea on what to spend it on…
As soon as you get into the 4 star transition iso is a massively limiting factor. It takes 365k to champ a four, and covers come much faster than you can earn iso. I’ve got about 8 4’s at 13 covers that need champing, so slowly working my way through them. Even if I had your stash, I’d only be able to champ 2 of 8 straight away.
Pretty much this.
Another part that, most of the iso cost to level a character is back loaded. For examples, 33% of the total ISO needed to champ a 4* is from lv 240 to 270 which is roughly the same cost for lv 70 to 200. Once you get to that point, you iso will disappear quickly. 900k sounds like a big number, but it is actually not. Don’t go shopping spree just yet.
I don’t track my earnings, but I do track my iso needs on a per day basis. (Iso demand) minus (current iso) divided by (days before expiring). In the past I generally outpace 30k based on my daily average iso demand dropping when I check it.
I just started saving to champ Iron fist before his covers expire and i need 41,383 iso a day to champ him in time. Not too optimistic about it, but if I start seeing that per day average dropping I guess that means I am outpacing 41k a day.
I think not hoarding is helpful to hitting these deadlines, even tho they can exacerbate the issue
But you have 900K iso to spend, and it costs 365K plus champ costs to champ a 4, so why have you stopped opening tokens? If you have anymore at 13 covers, you can champ 2 more before you stop opening tokens and recover iso. I’ve never got more than 365K iso, as as soon as I hit the amount to champ one of the many 4’s I have at 13 covers, I champ immediately and then start again.
Quick rough breakdown:
Day begins: get event rewards, daily resupply, VIP reward, alliance play bonus, finish DDQ (30 min)
= 10,000 ISO + tokens, HP, CP
Mid-Day: play some PVP (1 hour)
= 3,000 ISO + tokens, HP, CP
Nighttime: finish PVE sub-event and start another one, event rewards, bonus rewards (2+ hours)
= 20,000+ ISO + tokens, HP, CP
Day End: cash in tokens and get champ rewards (15 minutes)
= 10,000 ISO + HP, CP
Total 43,000+ ISO a day
Once a week: Shield Level Bonus = 40K ISO, Buy Heroes for Hire = 10K ISO + tokens, CP
I’m not sure what kind of alliance your in now. But with your scores in pve go to the alliance section of the forums and find a strong pve based alliance. They will consider your pvp scores a bonus and as long as you complete max progression in pve they should keep you. It’s amazing how much more iso you can earn in an alliance that a) EVERYONE plays EVERYDAY and b) places in the top 50 of pve and top 250 pvp EVERY event. That’s about an average of an extra 2.5k iso per day. Figuring going from a second to last bracket placing alliance, it’s a little more if your current alliance never gets out of the last bracket.
So true…I’m in a pretty competitive hybrid alliance (t10 PVE, t100 PVP) and the reward flow is awesome.
Its an extra 5 3* covers/week (or better), tokens, hp, and iso daily.
Honestly it really is about being at higher SHIELD clearance levels for the most part. When you’re new and still stuck in SHIELD CL 3-4, your ability to generate ISO from your daily play is fairly limited. The biggest thing you can do to increase your ISO output is through 2 star Champion level farm. Keep all of your 3 and 4 star heroes at or below level 144, and every time one of your 2-star characters reaches level 144, sell it off for 65,000 ISO and 125 HP as soon as you get the next cover for that character. You’ll very quickly start seeing your ISO flow increase by doing that. Play Deadpool’s daily every day as best you can, and roster as many 3 and 4 star characters as you can to unlock essentials.
Being a new player in this game at this point has got to be very frustrating, I can’t imagine starting over 2 years after I began playing. Save all of your HP for roster spots, and don’t roster any 5-star character you obtain, no matter how much you might want to. They’ll absolutely murder your ability to play story mode.
I currently am farming 2* characters. I have an Ares that I leave at Level 144, and then a second that I farm, sell and repeat. Today my second Ares got maxed. Instead of selling at 65,000, both are only showing that I can sell them for 12,500 ISO.
Anyone know why it’s not allowing me to sell at 65,000?
That’s an old bug. You’ll have to contact CS:

what is intercepts???
An intercept is a random extra reward, you’ll get several daily. To get these you need to spend money though, if you VIP you should already be getting them. Look for Iron Man saying you’re getting something extra after you beat a node.
oh thanks for reply, I am already VIP, and i am getting this (i did not notice it called intercept).
but:
1- never saw 2K intercepts, i think the max is 1K. (or could be 500 or token or HP).
2- only get them from PVE-story event nodes, or the current boss fight. (and i think it is one time/node or lets say one time/6 clears of a single node).
3- i do not get them in the PVP fight, is that normal? or is it just me not lucky?
