Sounds like you got a lucky bracket. I ended that one with 348 points and ranked 231 out of 500. I did momentarily get up to 400 points to get 25 hero points though, so I'm not too disappointed in the result. For the Gauntlet event, I managed to complete simulation 33 (3* Wolverine, Daken and Dr Doom) and 34 (Falcoln, Gamora and Spider Man) using Magneto/Hawkeye/Storm again. I almost died on #33 but won due to Storm's Raging Tempest: at the end Magneto was down and I made sure Hawkeye was out front so Storm would survive to fire off the last tempest and take them down. For #34, I think I just got lucky and managed to take them down before they were able to use any specials. I'm not sure I'll be able to do #35, which fields Black Panther, Psylocke and 3* Thor. |

New event about to start with Cyclops as the new reward character for top 150. Final reward is Deadpool cover. |

I'll definitely make the top 150, and with luck I'll get top 50 to get two colours for Cyclops. I've also just about got enough HP for another roster slot (they're 450 each now). With the black cover from the event progression rewards, I've now have all powers unlocked for Deadpool, covered as 1/3/1 and level 68 (which is boosted to 158 in this event). So I've been dropping lots of orcas on the enemies. I also managed to score two green 3* Thor covers (one from an event token, and one from a standard token). With the yellow cover from the versus season, I'll have him covered to 1/2/3 and a bit closer to being a usable level. |

I have picked up 2 covers for Falcon, a cover for the Hood, a cover for Mystique and a cover for Magneto. Each character slot now costs me 950. |

That's an insane amount for a single slot. I spent some money early on when it felt like I was getting reasonable value, but ~ $10 for a single roster slot seems a bit out of balance. At this point I've got to an almost steady state: I've got enough roster slots that if I get a 3* cover from a token, there is a fair chance that I've got the character, and I'm powerful enough that I can earn enough for a new roster slot in a few events. I've got most of my 2* characters up to the level 94 (the cap for 2* characters), and can fairly reliably get to 400 points in versus tournaments to get 25 HP. I also manage to get a bit from the single player events for progression and placement. What do you do to keep up with the new character releases? |

Nothing else you can do but save up your HP for slots. At the moment I am at 60/74 slots used which I have built over time. It is no doubt harder now than back in the early days when I started with more people now with stronger teams so more competition for rankings. Around a year ago I twice managed to come top 2 in MP events with just 2 star characters, no chance of that now. Also the daily rewards build up HP over time which helps. Most of my 2 star characters aren't powered up, I spend most of my Iso on the 3 star characters. I thought with 74 slots I would never need more slots again but the number of new characters recently has drained most of them. |

I'll start pumping ISO into my 3* characters next, since I'll soon have no 2*'s to use it on (only Magneto left now, who only has 12 covers). Part of the problem is that even for the 3* characters I can level up close to 94, I don't really have enough covers to make their supers competitive with the 2* characters. So far, my best 3* characters are Rocket & Groot (covered to 3/4/5) and Blade (covered to 4/2/1). After that, I've got a handful that have enough covers to get to level 66 or 68 and that's about it. That's the level where they start to become useful as a featured character in a versus tournament (boosted by 50%), but not really something I'd pick for day-to-day use. I guess this is similar to the situation I was in when migrating from 1* characters, but is likely to last a lot longer. There are more 3* characters, and it takes even longer to snag their covers.

It is becoming harder since there are more characters meaning less chance of being able to boost certain characters since tokens will be more spread out. I have the same problem and think most people will as well. This also means a longer wait to get an event for each character which also makes things worse. Somebody on the d3 forums had a great idea for 3 star only tokens for daily resupply but that won't happen. My 3 star characters: Thor (117) - 1/3/5 Falcon (91) - 1/3/3 Human Torch (89) - 0/3/3 The Hulk (89) - 2/3/2 Psylocke (78) - 1/2/3 Storm (78) - 3/2/1 The Hood (78) - 3/1/2 Black Widow (68) - 1/3/1 Doctor Doom (66) - 2/2/1 Magneto (66) - 3/0/1 Mystique (66) - 1/3/0 Rocket and Groot (63) - 0/2/2 Sentry (63) - 2/0/2 Blade (55) - 1/2/1 Captain America (55) - 1/1/2 The Punisher (55) - 1/2/1 Beast (53) - 1/2/0 Daken (53) - 0/2/1 Luke Cage (53) - 1/0/2 Spiderman (53) - 2/1/0 Iron Man (50) - 2/0/0 Ragnarok (50) - 2/0/0 Deadpool (45) - 1/1/1 Wolverine (45) - 1/1/1 Black Panther (43) - 1/0/1 Captain Marvel (43) - 1/0/1 The rest are Level 40 with only 1 cover: Colossus, Doctor Octopus, Gamora, Loki, She-Hulk, Squirrel Girl. |

Let's see what I've got. For 2*, I have Black Widow, Daken, Hawkeye, Human Torch, Storm, Thor and Wolverine maxed at level 94, and Magneto at level 86 (I'm waiting for an extra red cover for him). For 3*, I have: Rocket & Groot (90) - 3/4/5 Blade (80) - 4/2/1 Deadpool (68) - 1/3/1 Captain Marvel (66) - 2/2/1 Daredevil (66) - 1/3/0 Wolverine (66) - 2/1/2 Storm (63) - 2/0/2 Gamora (53) - 1/3/0 Hood (53) - 3/1/0 Hulk (53) - 2/0/2 Dr Doom (45) - 3/1/1 Thor (45) - 1/1/3 Loki (45) - 1/1/2 Squirrel Girl (45) - 1/1/1 Falcon (43) - 0/3/1 Luke Cage (43) - 1/0/1 Black Widow (40) - 1/1/0 Punisher (40) - 1/1/0 Mystique (40) - 0/1/0 And for 4* characters I have: Star Lord (74) - 1/1/0 Wolverine (74) - 1/1/0 Elektra (70) - 1/0/0 Invisible Woman (70) - 0/1/0 Nick Fury (70) - 0/1/0 Thor (70) - 1/0/0 There are a fair number of 3*'s in that list with room to level up, so I'll probably focus on them as they get featured in events or tournaments. It's also not clear if it is beneficial to raise any of them higher than level 94 though, in case it scales the enemies up in the events and makes it harder to compete. That's only really an issue for Rocket & Groot at this point though. |

Got another cover for Storm, Wolverine, 2 for Dare Devil, 2 for Deadpool. Also got a Cyclops cover for the event. Funny thing is 2 of those covers came from normal recruit tokens. Got 11 covers in the last 4 days. Probably 15 in the last 2 weeks. |

Looks like they introduced a new game mode over night: Deadpool's Daily Quest. I was able to complete two of the five missions today, not having characters for two of them (one requiring a team of three 1* characters, the other requiring Black Panther), and one that required completion of one of the others. The two missions I did complete required use of 2* teams. Each mission can only be played once. I ended up with a taco token for completing one of the missions, and 1000 Iso for the other, so seems like a decent set of rewards. |

That locked mission has a Black Panther cover. But damn it is brutal, just managed to win. 4 Waves, Level 99 - 125. 2nd and 4th waves are heroes. The rest were easy, I finished them all. There will be those events every day. |

And it's updated for the second day. The essential mission requires classic Magneto, with the hard survival mode giving him as a cover. I guess this is a new way for people to upgrade their 3* characters. |

The next daily quest had Mohawk Storm as the essential, who I actually have. I managed to complete the last node with 2* Black Widow, Magneto (mainly for his purple to help power Black Widow's healing ability) and Thor. I also used a few blue/black boosts and the 20% match damage boost. I could probably have done it without the boosts, but for a guaranteed 3* cover it seemed worth while. The essential characters over the last 3 days have all been featured on the Taco Tokens, so presumably there will be Luke Cage and Rocket & Groot covers over the weekend. |
