    Avalon is the character...Maker the rewards... Something somewhere is messed up.

    Yup! No chance to do his quests then I am guessing. Just about to try.

    Game pretending Mr. Fantastic doesn't exist.

    Marvel might wish the same, looks like movie dropping 60+% again this weekend: while likely to be the highest box-office take for Marvel this year all of their movies will lose money.

    ... Are you using Maker?
    If so, how did you manage that?

    Since we got a 1/1/1 Maker via compensation covers I ground out the quests in Shield Sim.

    The 3rd one with Hawkeye is a handy one do repeat since it's 3 goons and Hawkeye will give you 2 Blue/Purple whenever you match an enemy special (their count downs). Just make sure the 3rd character doesn't kill them too fast (Domino/Cloak&Dagger useful for their Black creation and 4 star match damage).

    Why is it that everyone is so interested in the feeders but not in how good the character is? Isn't that more important?

    Because use is secondary. A distant secondary. As far as gameplay, Sturgeon's law applies. But each characters rosterbuilding use is forever, and feeding relationships are immediately relevant. Decision around managing / maximizing that feeding need to be made and executed now, now, now. Character won't be used for days, and, unfortunately, likely only for a short time and very rarely thereafter.

    Eh. Plenty of us care about using these guys! It's a minority opinion for sure, but we exist.

    Liar! You don't exist.

    Can you believe this guy?

    Oh, we exist alright, there are dozens of us!

    I had to use him in the PVE... to complete the Quests.

    That's what the voices in my head told me, but they're a bunch of liars, too.

    Yeah, that's what everyone is having to do.
    It's Not him in the Welcome to Shield.

    Rewards updated, featured character not. Intentional or not? Who knows. Maybe the potential for a 1v1mirror match was problematic. Again, who knows.

    Considering they did Welcome to Shield one way for about three years, and considering the issues they are having with Unity, I think we definitely can all agree it was not intentional.

    We can all agree to pretend to know things we can't know and pile on as many adverbs as can be thought of; such pretension doesn't increase our knowlege a whit.

    You can't if you don't have him rostered!
