    ****, I’m 65 shards from my 2nd Galactus cover and the next PvE is giving Spidey shards. I will say though, he looks much better than Galactus and will pair well with Silk and Spider Man India.

    I don't think that meager passive damage will do much to a champed 6*... :D

    Good thing we don't have any spider men in the game... I guess we can be thankful they at least waited to make him the second 6 star.. 🤷🏾‍♂️

    He seems soooooo much better than Galactus that I am even sad the poor Galactus got the treatment he got. This guy will be a menace at 1/1/1 with any other web tile spammer.

    One thing that find weird is that Spidey has 0 synergy with Galactus. Werent we supposed to get the three new 6s in the same team, they did say that right?

    They said 3 cosmic characters to represent the level of power, but not the same team or other affiliations. Really, on the cosmic level they are such threats they don't really have any teams I can think of. Phoenix Force is the only one I can think of & we already have them.

    This does seem like two completely different people/teams designed them. Galactus mostly just sits there & hopes you hit him hard enough or his repeaters stay out long enough to generate AP & maybe heal himself. This guy is going to be spamming damage all over the place with the plethora of Spider characters in the game making web tiles.

    If they probably need money. They should sell covers for the new toys. I will bite. I have already with the Galactus offers. I have goals.

    Those might be some of the worst ability effects in the game. Also assuming that MCU Spidey is the costume based on the screenshot?

    "Convert 5 Web tiles into Critical tiles" Begs to differ.

    And you should only assume there are multiple at effects going on with that power from the screenshot.

    Are people just trying to be negative for the sake of making Debbie Downer seem optimistic at this point?

    Ah I see the confusion. Not the power effect, the character effects that play when you fire the powers themselves. Very bland and just show the same character model shrunken or enlarged with some sparkles.

    The powers themselves seem very powerful and usable even at a cover or two. He seems much more non-covered friendly than Galactus, especially when paired with pre-nerf Shang-Chi, 4a5 Chavez/Karnak, etc

    So the character effects, not the abilities. Got it.

    Can you explain why you'd personally put him with other critical tile creators over web tile creators? The latter would fuel the critical tile creation from Spidey himself, and seemingly be more effective. But maybe I'm missing something you're seeing.

    Good thing we don't have comments about another spider man bring added to the game... At least you're the first one to notice and comment on it...emoji.

    I am happy with Spider-Man. The original story is a classic fun run. He looks strong and he can do tons of dmg and you can use him with existing toons.

    I do wish they would update or reiterate the distribution plans. I’m personally fine with, I guess, 6 months to get a full cover character who’s stronger with 13 covers than a 5 is with 113. But a rotation of shards in pve currently means over a year of top 10 play to cover 1 with 3 in game. Is that the goal and intent? Because they currently plan to add more.

    I’d note also that if you spent hundreds on Galactus, and now Spidey has similar offer frequency and you spend hundreds again, you were/are spending hundreds to basically make some progress on a character you can’t use for about a year. Maybe more. So what the heck is up with that?

    Well he just became the best unit in the game at 1/1/1 lol spider-verse teams will be all over the place now , but it’s better then not being able to down big head . All you need is Spider-Man’s 1st ability to beat full 5-star teams . 5-stars have now become irrelevant in the game Gags, also I think they did this purposely to try and make people spend to acquire him . Best team (SM2099) CSM & (Miles Morales )

    I thought they were expecting it to take 3-6 months to get covers for a 6 star. Galactus has been around for what? A month? This is nuts.

    Where did they say that? I am a t50-100 player. I have 2 covers. I bought one single offer with his shards.

    It’s fine to release one and have vague plans etc but they are pushing them faster than initially announced.

    They need to communicate. But they won’t I guess.

    Anyone who blows a bunch of cash on Spidey will feel like a rube if it just buys a 1/1/1 for 6 months.

    At the moment, you can only get shards as rewards in PVE and special offers.
    Just seen my first 1/1/1 Galactus in a Lightning Round, so it might take less time than originally thought.
