    1Venom5’s black may cost 12…… but I don’t think anything is gonna survive it with 8 web tiles on the field. Level 450 does 38498 damage but if there’s 8 web tiles, does 80123.

    He might be the best character to put the Totem Dagger on as well.

    I'm running all ascended Polaris/Rocket/Juggernaut in PVE. The strike total at start is 7644, and juggernaut tanks everything but yellow which belongs to rocket. Just start matching strikes, ideally ones that are on non-yellow colors, and you'll be through it in no time. this is 4-5 juggernaut, not 1* jump up, who i only have naturally at 2* status still.

    I have a 3* hydra henchmen on juggernaut, a 3* milano on rocket, and a 3* Chewie on polaris for what I assume were good reasons at the time, but i really don't know why at the moment.

    Get a Low-Level AI on one of those three. Even if it's just on Grocket who is hiding in the back and not really doing anything after Turn Zero. That way you never lose the value of the strikes you match, the value just gets displaced to your other (surviving) strikes.
    As a 100% user of Juggs/Pol/GRocket (none ascended, but they don't need to be to slay in CL10) this support took my already formidable team and brought it to the next level. The extra new strike that it creates every turn makes it all the sweeter.

    I haven’t pulled that support yet, but it seems a no brainer for sure.

    Vulture would keep feeding him black right trying to pick two to go with him

    General ascension win: if you want to save a health pack, ascend a character instead! Once ascended they get full health.

    Granted it's only a once per character trick, but still

    Mines 547 and does 170k damage with 8 webtiles.

    He's boosted in dino danger pvp and meet R&G pve. What's it look like there @Tony_Foot ?

    At 550 + the boost.

    (I emptied out the 1* vault a lot. I love the 1* vault, it's seriously the best deal in the game. It basically pays for itself if you have enough guys ascended).

    I said on Discord earlier today that I didn’t expect anyone spending 150,000 HP on the vault to immediately 550 Venom. I guess I was wrong!

    Edit: yes, I am aware you get a lot of rewards in return.

    They're all there for the rewards, really.
    Just buy every one they offer.

    Sorta, but it didn't happen like that? Basically I'd empty it a few times, then apply all the stuff, open all the rewards from the stuff and apply those, then realize "oh look, I have more HP than I did when I started." So I'd pull a few more times, and then I'd stop for a bit.

    Applying tons of rewards is just really fun.

    Stop giving me reasons to keep buying out that vault!

    This comment made me buy out the vault a few more times. This is your fault!

    FYI, unless I am doing something wrong, buying out the vault does not pay for itself in HP. And, yes, I have an Ascended 5Venom1*.

    It pays for itself in rewards but after emptying it 10 times, I still have way less HP than when I started. It's not horrible, but it's definitely not a "winfinite vault".

    This is going to depend very, very heavily on how many of the 3* you have ascended (and their levels), how many of the elite tokens give you characters you've ascended, and what all of those champion rewards end up producing for you.

    Bow and I are likely in a position where all of those things are producing big waves of reward cascades into other stuff.

    If you're not there yet, I still think this a good vault, because you're making a down payment towards getting to that situation, and the cost is extremely low.

    Totally agree it's a good vault. Just wanted to throw out there that it is definitely not HP neutral for everyone so YMMV.

    Interesting! I wonder what the rest of the 5* 3* will look like. The scaling here is pretty crazy.

    I'm not sure he's strictly better than 5* Thanos. The damage is nice, but sometimes you want the stun, and often 60k will be more than you actually need out of it.

    That's a crazy PVE team waiting to be built.
