How has cover saving been treating you? Have you done a 3-1 or 5-1 swap? Whats the most saved covers you had for a single character? Any rng horror stories where you end up with more saved covers than usable covers?
I went thru my roster and I have 3 5*s with a single saved cover that will probably stay that way forever. I have 4 saved for Okoye that I will swap when I get another cover to champ her.
My worst covered is Dazzler who already has 1 saved at only 6 covers. My most saved covers is 2* cap with 7.
5* I have a 6/1/0 Daredevil, who like yours will probably be that way forever.
I have a 6/3/2 Ghost Rider who might actually get champed. It’s going to take about 60 covers for 4* ghost rider to feed him into champ status, though he is currently my only 5* bh. I could see myself doing the 3:1 swap on him, or waiting the 10 more covers to get the next usable one.
4* Most of my unchamped 4* characters have at least one saved. I have several with 6 saved covers. My most saved covers was on W4sp with 7 coming out of that movie event, but I’ve since champed her.
3* I just have 1 saved on my dupe Strang3, who is waiting on iso to re-champ.
2*s i think my record was 10 when I was re-building my farm. Wasn’t on purpose, just worked out that way.
I just champed Elektra and Wiccan both with 10 saved, but right now my 4-star saved covers totals 86 (with 18 more 4-stars I can champ as soon as I have all the iso).
Here’s my horror story for you. I have 12 saved Okoye covers for my 5/5/2 Okoye. I didn’t actually pull the red covers either, they were from latest swaps before they ended that in favor of the new system. When they announced Shuri as the feeder, I think I needed 42-ish covers to get her to 320 to get the last Okoye cover. I need 2 more Shuri covers now, and while I’ve seen some more Okoye covers come in, none have been red.
As a sidenote, I also hoarded some LTs waiting for Wasp to leave latest (she is champed, naturally her covers came in perfectly without the need to save a cover). 36 LTs, probably ended up opening 2 or 3 more with champ rewards, and 4-5 classics. I did not pull a single Shuri cover. I did not get a single bonus hero. Shuri still sits at 318, and Okoye sits at 435.
I’ve never traded and don’t intend to, it’s a bad deal.
My strat:
2s I have a duplicate of every character (yes even bagman) and I save up to 50 saved covers then champ and immediately sell and restart.
3s Create a dup and save covers. Haven’t determined when I’ll start champing them, probably when I either need a boost of resources or once I get to the first 4* cover..
4s I’m trying not to champ 4s unless I have to at this point, so I generally have a few building covers. 10 covers will be my champ point, or when they come up in CoT or SHIELD Training.
5*s As soon as I can champ I will, these are just to save them from dying on the vine.
Format:
Name 1 | Name 2 | Cover 1 | Cover 2 | Cover 3 | Level | Saved Covers
With 2*s I’m doing the save 50 and re-maxchamp thing.
3*s 2 saved total
4*s 0 saved total
Where I have the worst luck is 5s.
5s 17 saved covers.
Hawkeye - 4
Old Man Logan - 3
Captain America First Avenger - 2
Starlord - 2
Phoenix- 2
Okoye - 1
Silver Surfer - 1
Captain America Infinity War - 1
Black Widow- 1
I actually drew a red OML last week to give him cover 13 so I’m waiting for Iso to champ him unless I get lucky with Okoye very soon.
Each 4-star that isn’t champed and has 13 covers averages between 4 and 7 before they move up to the 270 crown. I’ve made it my mission, however, that I’m leveling up my lower level 4-stars to be at 209 if they have the covers so the damn SHIELD Level events I’ll get all the covers of a new character I can upon release. The amount of 4-star covers I get on others might increase in coming weeks (as I don’t hoard any LTs), as I have a few 94 level 4-stars to slowly climb the ISO mountain. I’ve got several 3-stars who were recently sold who just keep collecting covers at 40, until the next 3-star reaches max champ and the max champ gets sold for the ISO and HP to add another roster slot. Right now, my 3-star Cyclops is sitting at 13 covers, just waiting for Kamala or StarLord to reach their final 2-3 covers before I’ll dump the 109,000 in him to bring him closer to champ.
I have 22 saved covers for Devil Dinosaur. I’m afraid to champ him because he’d automatically become my highest leveled 4*, and I don’t want him messing up my match-making. A 292 Devil Dino is a lot different than a 292 Carol.
Is my fear legit or can I champ him and not be scared?
