LT at 28K here. was at 32K last run. hulk was further out - maybe because it was a release event. not sure about TaT. this one is shorter. all over the place. maybe they want more people to play the heroics.

I saw that as well. Not only that, but even the first

reward has a 100 point variance. Weird changes all around.

IM40 as a reinforcement. Sigh.

there are worse reinforcements when you have mags and grocket around (assuming 2 on yellow)

No, I have his yellow at 3. I did it a long time ago, before I knew better (he was one of my first fully-covered 3*). I just used him on the CP node with Mohawk and Mags. I think it was the first time I’ve ever gotten all 3 of the countdowns to resolve, and for a second I almost thought he was a good character!

Last Heroic they gave us really sweet reinforcements. I’m just hoping for someone good against those Carnage/ Doc Ock nodes.

[system]

What is a good team? I’ve tried many combos and can’t get past 4th node. Ugh

[Krongle]

those Carnage/ Doc Ock nodes.

I forgot about those nodes. Suddenly I recall why I despise Venom Heroic.

I use *** Falcon, Wolverine and Mag.

wait until you could match purple or use Mag’s blue/red to reset the board before you use Wolverine’s green.

or make sure you can end the game with a series of attacks beginning with Wolverine’s green.

or use Falcon/Mag’s protective tiles before using Wolverine’s green.

It is not that difficult.

2nd sub reinforcements are:

[ammenell]

with grocket and patch still boosted most matches are relatively short

first grocket blue, then patches green, after that patches red does absurd dmg
whoever survives that faces 3k dmg per match3

I find Moonie and Loki keep taking my strikes.. are they in sub 2?

[TxMoose]

really don’t like the group boosted here. mags is the most useful obviously - for character opponents I’ve used him with im40 and a third - falcon if there’s one goon or storm if not. for goons I’ve gone with falcon/storm/starlord. starlord, if his cds resolve, can put out some damage but its just a pain. I christen him “stargoon” - hes a goon character - all cd abilities. but he’s worse than a good because he doesn’t auto-make ap. purple can overwrite cds if covered, so that helps a tiny bit.

No Loki or moonstone. Mystique and baby daken this sub.

[Azoth658]

I’ve been enjoying Mohawk boosted those 3 matches for 1.5k damage end of each turn is great especially alongside groots blue.

Nearly earned my first PVE legendary token (please don’t be star-lord)

[jobob]

I hate the layout of Round 1. Almost everyone is a strike/attack tile generator… Which sounds awesome with a boosted Falcon. Until you have to fight level 200 Loki and Moonstone every node… And for an extra kick in the balls their team-up is Dr. Doom’s technopathic strike! You have no one to deal with opposing special tiles (save blind luck with Mags overwriting them), which just sucks as well… Give me Daredevil, Ant-Man… Hell even Doc Oc or Elektra. Just a shoddily designed (& not very fun) round.

“Please don’t be star-lord” hahaha

[ScrubJay]

Going to get this token super early. After just one clear of sub #2 I’m at 20k. I probably won’t even need to farm the sub in the last couple of hours as I have both Command points already. Just have to weigh whether I want the Hero points.

[Quebbster]

My go-to team here is CMags, Punisher and Professor X. Full Rainbow and works very well.

i take the stealers down first - after grockets blue (or patches green, dont really need both) patches red often results in a kill, even if moonstone survives the matchdamage after that will down her in the same turn

if there is a venom on the enemy team i rather kill moonstone and let grocket tank venoms black, or wait with my strike tiles until venom uses black, so no more ap for moonstone to steal
