Patch Notes - R96 (03/14/16)

R96!

  • Stay vigilant…

What’s Hot…

    • Versus Season XXV gets underway! Rumble into battle with Quake!

What’s Changed…

    • Tiles now update correctly after a hero is stunned.
  • Passive effects no longer trigger right before a hero is downed after being airborne.
  • Green Goblin no longer fortifies tiles that are already fortified.
  • Miles Morales no longer activates Hide and Seek when there aren’t any available purple tiles on the board.
  • Fixed a bug in the early parts of the game that could prevent player progression.

So no more buffs to 3* characters?

I hope there’s not too many puns for this thread

4* Punisher or Stick coming for daredevil season 2? We might not get any non movie or tv related characters for a while…

We’re getting Mad-Eye Moody! “CONSTANT VIGILANCE!”

…no?

Another anagram, obviously.

Tiny Vista Gal = Wasp

Some bug fixes. Nice!

5*, hopefully. They seem to be doing a 4* character and a 5* character each month, which I really hope they continue because it keeps mind-numbing new character PvE grinds to a minimum.

New daredevil season starting soon.
Sounds like Punisher to me, and he will be a 5*

If we do get a 5* Punisher now would be a great time to buff the 3* punisher. All he needs is more damage on black and green, a la the Vision update, only this time it would work and he could be a very good 3*.

But Moody was actually Barty Crouch Jr, who was played by David Tennant. The clue points squarely at Killgrave!

Remember, this month is about women, though. At least I’m fairly sure the whole month will be dedicated to that. So I’m thinking no Punisher.

So where are the matchmaking/scaling fixes/changes you mentioned awhile ago???

Until someone with inside knowledge tells me otherwise, this is definitely either another version of Punisher or Daredevil. Does Punisher have any other distinct versions worthy of an additional character, though? As for Daredevil, we could get him in the black suit, as the head of / possessed by The Hand (circa Shadowland.)

I’m not a comic aficionado, so I’m not sure why “stay vigilant” is pointing everyone to Punisher or Daredevil. The existing character whose name I most associate with vigilance is Sentry.

Because both are vigilantes and many people have called for a reworking of 3* Punisher.

It’s probably 5* Punisher. There are many vigilanties in Marvel, but there is only one whose definition is equal to staying vigilant, and that is the Punisher, no doubt about it.

A-ha, but check out this passage from the Marvel wiki!

“Mockingbird re-entered into government service. She participated in Operation: Vigilance…”

Perhaps a bit more obscure than just talking about vigilantes, but still, I hold that this is Marvel’s women’s month.

Good point. I forgot it’s women’s history month, not week.

And Mockingbird is one of the Women of Power variant covers being done by Marvel - one of the few characters featured in that range not already in the game.
