Just picked up this game again after a year hiatus. Wow there's been some big changes, but I'm glad my old team of Gam/Quake/Yondu/Cap/Drax can still do ok-ish in Arena.

Any other goon alliances I could apply to besides the ones in the OP? ~~Looks like they're all full except for Catman's Shameful Secret, which has only 4 people in it right now. I'm assuming that one's defunct.~~

edit: vvv whoops my mistake.

I'm not sure how I feel about these War-Centric characters. At least there's plenty of Raids for raid-centric characters like Mantis. But since Wars are one-time use you're spending a shitload of resources for something you may use like 3 times a week, assuming you don't just stick them on defense :geno:

Me: Oh boy this new update might fix the constant red star dupes. I'll save my Elite Reds Star orb and open it after the update. Plus it has an increased chance to give Mastery stars to Rescue and Falcon.

(Opens it. Gets a 4 star Shield Medic. Whom I already had at 4 stars. Is given 900 shards.)

Me: That was disappointing.

I think it's I Am Goon, Catmans Shameful Secret, and Marble Hebrons at this point.

IAG is full but we're about to clear out a slot unless twistedmentat puts up a drat war defense seriously it's been like a month but that's just one slot -- not sure about the other two guilds.

Releasing Mantis first and then following her up with an obviously superior healer in Minnerva was a genius move in trying to get people to waste resources

https://www.marvelstrikeforce.com/en/updates/update-5-17

Ill just post the entire article here:

quote:

Greetings Commanders,

Version 3.2 is on the horizon, so get ready for another big update to MARVEL Strike Force. You may have noticed that the updates have been coming in hot the past few weeks. Two updates were bug fixes that were hindering gameplay and one update was the release of Rescue and her corresponding Event Campaign chapter. Version 3.2 will be a more traditional update and it's packed with new characters, an Alliance War update, as well as new Elite Red Star Orbs and how to earn them. Here's a breakdown of the major updates and events coming your way.

ELITE RED STAR ORB UPDATE

The biggest change coming in Version 3.2 is the new Elite Store, which addresses duplicates received from Elite Red Star Orbs and implements a new progression system.

Going forward, all duplicate drops of 4 Red Stars or better from the Elite 4 Star Orb will earn Elite 5 Credits, which can be used to purchase the Elite 5 Star Orb, which guarantees a 5 Red Star promotion. Duplicate drops of 5 Red Stars from the Elite 5 Star Orb will earn Elite 6 Credits toward the Elite 6 Star Orb, and so on. Duplicates from the Elite 7 Orb give you another pull. Keep in mind that each orb has a chance to drop a higher Red Star than what's guaranteed. For example, the Elite 5 Star Orb has a chance to award 6 or 7 Red Stars at an increased drop rate than the Elite 4 Star Orb.

Instead of using your Elite Credits to purchase Elite Orbs, you can also choose to use your Elite Credits to get Promotion Credits, which you can use to buy single Red Star promotions for specific characters in the Supplies tab. You'll only be able to buy promotions that are 1 Red Star higher than what you already have for a character and promotion costs increase with the number of Red Stars. Buying 6 & 7 Red Star Promotions requires Gold Promotion Credits, which can be bought with Elite 7 Credits.

To kick off the new system and store, we'll be temporarily removing Elite Orbs from the store and converting everyone's Elite Red Star Orb fragments to Elite 4 Credits. In the meantime, feel free to open Red Star Orbs. All progress toward your next Elite Red Star Orb will be saved. Be on the lookout for an inbox message announcing the new Elite Store.

NEW HEROES ON THE WAY

Three uncanny mutants and a patriotic portal kicker are preparing for battle in Version 3.2. Joining the X-Men will be Psylocke, Colossus, and Phoenix. Psylocke is a telekinetic Brawler capable of removing negative effects from allies and applying them to enemies, along with hitting for big damage. The Psylocke Event Campaign is just around the corner and requires a team of Martial Artists. Next is Colossus, the X-Men Protector. He can mitigate damage by stacking positive effects and via Deflect. Rounding out the X-Men team is Phoenix, the Legendary member. Her attacks are devastating, and she boosts her X-Men teammates, so keep an eye out for the Phoenix Legendary Event preview in a few weeks. You don't want to miss out!

Also making her way to MARVEL Strike Force is the explosive Brawler, America Chavez. Not only is she a powerful and visually exciting hero, but she has Team Synergy with fellow Hero Brawlers, so you can slide her right into your Brawler squad for an immediate impact.

There are two more characters currently in development and coming down the pipeline. One we've mentioned before is Agent Coulson. The second is the long-time leader for the X-Men, Cyclops. We're still finalizing their details, but we wanted to give everyone a peek at characters joining the battle in the future.

VENOM ADDED TO NEXUS 6-9

The brutal Spider-Verse symbiote is on the move now that S.T.R.I.K.E. Raid Alpha featuring Venom has concluded. If you're looking to bond with even more Venom shards, you can find him in Nexus 6-9. Yondu will still be available in Heroes 1-6.

STAR-LORD LEGENDARY EVENT

Grab your favorite trash panda and sentient alien tree, because the Space Ace Event is coming in for a landing. Battle your way toward Star-Lord shards and round out your Guardians team. If your Guardians and Ravagers need a boost before the Legendary Event, an x2 Guardians and Ravagers shard day is taking place today.

RESCUE BLITZ PART 2

You'll have another shot at recruiting and ranking up the Power Armor Support specialist in the second iteration of Rescue Blitz. Clear the second round of Milestones for this event to unlock a 2-Star Rescue.

Rescue shields her allies from damage by clearing negative effects and protects her team from damage with the new Barrier ability. Don't miss your chance at recruiting Rescue!

And that's all for this week! Expect more info on the new X-Men team coming soon to a MARVEL Strike Force blog near you.

Until next time...

Good Luck, Commanders!

So that�s Waifu Psylocke, leader of the buttflossed world.
Colossus, the big metal baby
Jean Grey, the bird lady

America Chavez is also coming next update moving on

Confirmed in development via blog are CYCLOPS THE GOD KING HE DID NOTHING WRONG AND HE WAS RIGHT
And Agent Coolson

Big patch today!!!

quote:

Psylocke�s Kit:

Basic � Psi Knife � Attack primary target for 270% Piercing damage.
Special � Telekinetic Armament � Attack primary target for 200% Piercing damage. Chain to 3 adjacent targets for 200% Piercing damage. Clear 2 positive effects from each target. Counterattack breaks this Chain.
Ultimate � Astral Butterflies � Transfer 2 negative effects from each ally to primary target. Transfer all negative effects from self and X-Men allies to primary target. Attack primary target for 300% Piercing damage. This attack cannot miss.
Passive � Reinvigorate � On Spawn, gain Evade + Counter. When an X-Men ally drops below 50% Max Health, apply Evade + Counter to that ally. Gain +1,000% Resistance against Disrupted

Colossus

Next up is the X-Men Protector, Colossus. The Mutant metal man gives his allies temporary protection from damage with his Taunt � a 2-turn Taunt with Phoenix � and provides additional damage mitigation with Deflect. Colossus can also apply Offense Down to a target using his Basic attack, Ringdinger, allowing you the flexibility to reduce incoming damage by choosing a target to hinder. Worth noting is his Charge mechanic: when Colossus gains a Charge, the damage he inflicts increases with each stack of Charge. The big fella can really wallop a target if you�re patient.

If you want to add the X-Tank to your squad, Colossus will be featured in an upcoming Blitz. Here are Colossus�s kit details:

Basic � Ringdinger � Attack primary target for 340% damage and apply Offense Down for 2 turns.
Special � Altruism � Gain Taunt. Gain 2 Counter. Apply 2 Deflect to Self and X-Men allies. Apply Deflect to all other allies. If Phoenix is an ally, gain Taunt for 2 turns.
Ultimate � Enduring Protection � Increase the duration of positive effects on self by +3, up to a maximum of 5. Gain 2 Deathproof. Gain +2 charged, up to a maximum of 5.
Passive � Steel Form � On Spawn, if Charged, generate 1 Ability Energy for Self. Then clear Charged.
On Spawn, if Phoenix is an ally:
Gain Defense Up for 2 Turns
Apply Defense UP to all X-Men allies
When a negative effect is applied to an X-Men ally, gain +1 Charged, up to a maximum of 5. While Charged, when attacked, attack that enemy for 100% damage +10% damage per Charged.
When an X-Men ally drops below 50% Max Health, gain +1 Taunt, up to a maximum of 2.
While in Defense Up, gain +1,000 Resistance. Gain +15% Max Health. X-Men allies gain +15 Max Health.

Phoenix

Phoenix, the Legendary Controller for the X-Men, is truly unique, because she has two different ability kits. The second kit activates after Phoenix dies and she transforms into a summoned character, Dark Phoenix. Her Passive ability, Phoenix Rising, boosts her X-Men allies by increasing their Max Health and Damage by 30%, similar to the damage increase Star-Lord

provides the Guardians team. Her Basic abilities, Psychic Blast and Immolation, clear enemy positive effects, including Taunt, allowing you to focus attacks. And if you thought she couldn�t get any more powerful, Phoenix can Stealth allies and redistribute Health, similar to Scarlet Witch.

If you want to recruit the X-Men Legendary member, start prepping a team of Villain Mystic Controllers for the Phoenix Legendary Event.

Here�s a breakdown of the Phoenix and Dark Phoenix kits:

Phoenix

Basic � Psychic Blast � Attack primary target for 250% damage + clear 2 positive effects.
Special � Bestow Light � Apply Stealth to all allies to 2 turns. Apply Defense Up to all allies. Redistribute 25% of Max Health from self to all allies. All allies receive an additional 10,000 Health. This bypasses Heal Block.
Transfer all negative effects from allies to self. If there are no allies, attack self for 5,000% self Piercing damage.
If Phoenix dies, her Passive Ability is triggered
Ultimate � Phoenix Force � Attack primary target for 400% damage + clear all positive effects. Gain 50,000 Extra focus for this attack.
Passive � Phoenix Rising � On Death, summon Dark Phoenix. Phoenix cannot be revived.
On ally Taunt, gain Taunt.
Gain +30% Damage , X-Men allies gain +30% Damage.
Gain +30% Max Health. X-Men allies gain +30% Max.
Dark Phoenix

Basic � Immolation � Attack primary target and all adjacent targets for 250% damage. Clear 2 positive effects on each target.
Special � Vitality Drain � Steal 20% Health from all enemies and redistribute to self. Apply Regeneration to all allies. Apply an additional Regeneration to all X-Men allies.
Ultimate � Phoenix Unleashed � Attack all enemies for 400% damage. Clear all positive effects on each target. Gain +50,000 Extra Focus for this attack.
This attack is Unavoidable.
Passive � From the Ashes � On Spawn, attack all enemies for 250% damage + apply Defense Down for 2 turns.
MSF - America Chavez
America Chavez

Born in a Utopian parallel universe, America Chavez possesses super strength, speed, flight, and the power to create star-shaped portals with her kicks. As a member of S.T.R.I.K.E., America Chavez is a high-damage, enemy positive effect-clearing Brawler who amplifies ally Hero Brawler stats.

Basic � Starstruck � Attack primary target for 290% + apply Defense Down.
Special � Shooting Star � Attack primary target for 300% damage +75% per Hero Brawler ally.
Ultimate � Starling Highway � Clear 3 positive effects. Attack primary target for 430% damage.
Passive � America�s Starling � Gain +20% Max Health. Hero Brawler allies gain +20% Max Health.

I'm almost certain Jessica Jones' resistance buff doesn't go away when she dies so I figure the Phoenix buff will probably stay once she transforms.
