    No Holiday events? Bruh…

    You guys are still doing a great job. Everyone drops the snowball sometimes.

    The list only goes to mid-december. Relax

    The calendar goes through the entire month, though. No "holiday" events are currently listed there.

    Are trailers considered spoiler? Anyway, I edited my post.

    Sorry if I was unclear, that was not meant as a reply to your post but as a question to @IceIX opening post. I wasn't certain if the empty spoiler tags are intended as separator/header or that the info below should be in it.

    It's the beginning of the month. The spoiler tags normally have events that have finished already. Hence, empty spoilers.

    This community might be one of the really few ones where there are people who don't want to play the game any extra amount of time and also they hate people who just want to play more, demonizing them.
    I wonder if this people did try to unistall the game: suddenly there is a lot of extra time to spend with their families.
    Although that way rewards won't come anymore: there is no perfect solution.

    @IceIX - Am I reading this right, that the Iron First (Immortal Weapon) PVP ends after the season end? Will it not count, just like last time? (and therefore only 9 total PVP events this season) Like last time, the season is also starting a day before the 1st event.

    Look, PvE offers 5* shards. Each latest 5* gets a limited number that they're featured during their stint in latest and every classic only comes up very rarely. So if PvE runs at the same time as bosses and you decide you can't handle both, you will miss out on one of those limited turns of that 5*'s shards. Which can be slightly annoying, depending on your progress of the character.

    I think both times the PvE's featured classic legends and not latest legends? Maybe I'm wrong. But, we got extra Adam Warlock shards last time and this time was not a latest legend either.

    Considering that classics only get their turn once a year, missing out on them is kinda worse, not better, lol. At least for someone who doesn't have all of them champed and would like to make progress on them. Either way, same basic problem.
    (And no-- at least last time, it was Emma Frost. Which I remember, because I did want her shards and was :( at the double-event, haha. )

    The best source you can trust is that it has been repeated already a lot of times.
    That proves on devs metrics people actually play, whatever their personal opinion could be.
    Doing a pve just on progression rewards is a relaxing event.
    Also there is the player strenght factor: an advanced 5* strong player needs half the time than others, and then they aren't on the same boat.
    Actually what I want is fun, extra, interesting new content.
    Still waiting for it. Hope is the last thing to lose, like Pandora's myth.

    I've never skipped playing it, because you want a steady resource income when you're f2p, but i resent it being there every time.

    Apart from Heart of Darkness, is She Hulk going to be featured any more times before she leaves latest?

    With the caveat that the schedule is a little fluid with BC lately, and they mentioned they’re trying to get back on a normal one “soon”… I think she’ll get one more feature with Infinite Pursuit on 12/25. That’s a couple days before she leaves Latest Legends, so I think it’ll be safe.

    Did anyone else notice a classic token in their Classic Legend store? I was looking to see if Arcade was in yesterday and I saw a Classic token. I didn't make any purchase at all. I've been searching high and low for the origin of this token.

    Classic tokens were in one of the vaults, recently. Probably that's where you got it from.

    I don't have one, myself, so I don't think it was a playerbase award.

    Thank you. That explains why I got a classic token. They must be located past the first "page" of the vault. It must be some vault I'm not interested in. :D

    They were at the end of the Black Friday Vault. I got one as well.

    I'm overly tired and punch drunk, but can't get the following out of my head. Please, forgive me.

    Multi-dextrous... Is a mislead; it's not referencing one character doing many things; it's referencing many characters doing one thing.

    We've seen two characters working together (Cloak and Dagger) but now we'll have an entire team jammed into one character slot.

    And no team could be more worthy than...
    The Great Lakes Avengers!

    Mr Immortal, Dinah Soar, Doorman, Big Bertha, Flatman, Good Boy, they're all here and ready to try not to get in the way.

    Each character has one active power that corresponds to a different color... And the active character rotates randomly each time you make a match. So, much like the teams effectiveness, or lack thereof, you never know what you're gonna get.

    They each also have two passives: one that's beneficial to you, and one that possibly hinders you. I mean, they wouldn't be the GLA if they were totally effective, maybe they just hinder whatever the meta characters do.

    Clint and Bobbi get a pass though: if you have Hawkeye or Mockingbird on the team with the GLA their hindering passives become better for you... Marginally.

    I thought of a few powers, but then I forgot them because, as I stated previously, I'm in dire need of sleep.

    Anyway, it's not Zemo or Fantomex, and we have Big Wheel of all things, so...GLA is as good a guess as anything else.

    PS. You have no idea how many typos I just corrected. Tiny kitty thing looked like a three year old wrote it.

    With that: I bid thee good night.

    How many PVP events are there going to be in the current season? Is it 9 again like last season or back to 10? I'd like to know so I can plan ahead to 10000 points which I missed last season for the first time in a longest time not knowing it was one event short of the usual 10.
