10 wins with a snap is a seriously evil mission to leave until the very end of a season... Bastards! I still have this and total of 40power wins left. I've just tanked like 10 ranks just to grind the snap one and I've lost nearly every match. Really haven't being paying attention to the current meta and just coasting as my mains (patriot and controlsera) are just getting hammered

So starting tomorrow with the new season, once you hot a new ranked tier you get an extra 50 cubes, rather than just 10. Should help a bit. Going straight from 90 to 95 will help that last grind for people.

First season pass I didn't buy. Maybe I'm less interested now, who knows.
I dropped down to about 35 trying to grind out the win 8 games with 40+ power. Finally got it then thought fuck this shit and turned it off.
Taco Tuesday is 800 tokens and 65 boosters for 850 gold

yeah it's sods law that when you're the most bothered about wins the matchmaking, locations or your card draw will line up against you.
I have a rule now that if i get on a losing streak I stop and come back later.
the matchmaking definitely gives you a harder time at peak times like evenings when everyone is on. I've sometimes managed big cube streaks easily when it's quieter like early morning at the weekend, string of bots instead of the hard bastards.

There is some diminishing returns kicking in for me too.
I find myself ignoring Taco Tuesdays for fear of spending my gold and then an expensive bundle pops up I don't have gold for.
Classic FOMO.

I am now 800 tokens away from Thanos. I promised myself that once I got Thanos I would actually *dun-dun-duhhhhh* make a new deck.
Until then, it's Dracula with the occasional zoo, as always.

I currently have Kang pinned in the token store. Seems like an interesting card, but 6,000 tokens...

The 'buff' to Sandman from 4/1 to 5/5 ruined my most reliable deck. It was based on playing strong early cards like Lizard and Maximus, then playing Sandman to stop the opponent taking advantage, with Ronan/Captain Marvel/Magneto giving flexibility of how to handle things after that. Been struggling a bit since then. Now Sandman is too late to be useful.

When the fun stops, Stop!
Nimrod is destroy archetype, my least favourite. Wonder what his interaction with Anim Zola will be? Doesn't he 'destroy' to clone? Will you get 4 copies?
Hopefully they're going to give 'Movement' some love soon. I just need Aero FFS and I can give my new move deck a whirl. Finally got absorbing man last night for it.

I'd managed to get up to 40 within a couple of days, then never got above 45 all season.
I do find sometimes if I play the same deck too long, it stops being effective, so wonder if it's bots being played against me with counter cards - switching to a different deck does seem to improve things often, but despite having about 10 different ones, I tend to play the same 2 generally unless going for a specific mission.
Just bought Dracula, so should be able to make a better discard deck at least.
Picked up 2 pool 3 in open play and bought a couple over the last two weeks, so now 15 cards shy of finishing that level, but still only got 3 pool 4, and no pool 5. 2700 tokens though so think I will see if I can nab a good higher ranked card to mix up my play style a bit.

Been struggling a bit since then. Now Sandman is too late to be useful. I fully agree. Their 'buff' is actually a really shit nerf. I had a really good patriot deck and could drop sandman and piss people off but continue buffing cards with single drops and play wide with doom. The fucked up leader too. Brode's a cunt!

I just watched a supercut of 'game defining moments' with Nimrod... Leech, Leech, Aero, Cosmo, Leech Leech and some more Leech. In fairness this is a guy playing at a much higher rank, I don't see much of Leech down in the cheap seats.

I don’t get Nimrod. A five point version of Dr Doom that you have to jump through hoops to play effectively. Seems shit.

My token shop has a Black Panther variant in it. Surely it should only show base cards you have yet to collect.
Feels rather bullshit to have a 6k cost variant that frankly, looks like shit

Shuri on 4, Nimrod on 5, Galactus on 6 puts two 10 power Nimrods in your Galactus lane if you play it in the left of the non-Galactus lanes. You can do similar things with Zola apparently.

The difference being this is fucking awesome, venomised variant. This must be a side effect of getting close to completing P3

Weird, I just got bumped up from level 19 to 25. This happened to anyone else before?

Yeah I had that last night, a big jump up for no apparent reason.
Just played a very odd game. Baxter Building in the middle, Bar With No Name to the right. So +3 at other locations for winning the middle location, but lowest power winning the right. For some reason opponent plays on BWNN and stacked BB, so all I had to do was play solely on the left.

They've changed the progression. When you reach a milestone they give you 50 cubes instead of ten.
So 20 to 25 rather than 19 to 21

Or could you, say, jump up to 25, find yourself on a loosing streak, and then instead of trying to get back from 22 to 25, just loose a few snaps to get back to 19, then climb again?

I'm not sure about that, I haven't played much recently. I'd imagine it'd just be the first time you reach that level and unlock the reward (based on no information) but happy to be proven wrong.

I suspect it's only the first time you pass through, as a way to help you boost up, but could be handy if not.
I think I got to about 70 a couple of seasons ago, but didn't manage to get past the mid 40s last season, so will have to see how it plays out this time.

Post by crashV👀d👀 on Mar 9, 2023 14:04:34 GMT
Hah, if last season is anything to go by it'll help me speed to 50 again but faster while the season end inevitably sees me shit out all that progression back to 35
arf!
