Marvel Strike Force is a new 5v5 turn-based mobile game developed by FoxNext games featuring over 60 playable Marvel characters. Have you played Galaxy of Heroes? It's a lot like that, with stylish art and some really great animations and ragdoll. You will level up, craft gear, gain skills, raid, PVP, complete challenges, and play through a variety of campaign missions, all while trying to avoid as many microtransactions as possible.

SHURI LEGENDARY EVENT
Web together your Spider-Verse team for the Shuri Legendary Event!

Ultimus has been experimenting with the Carnage Symbiote and is using it to super-charge his legion of corrupted super soldiers to try to destroy Wakanda. Join Spider-Man and the rest of the Spider-Verse team as they team up with Shuri and Black Panther to take out the facility producing these super soldiers. Level up your web-slingers, symbiotes, and Goblin and help defend Wakanda from this attack!

The Shuri Legendary event begins on April 25 and will require five 5-Star Spider-Verse characters to unlock Shuri.

    Daredevil and Punisher were super easy to level up and are damn good damage dealers and my faves so thats good.

    Rolling out new characters is the core of the business model: people impulse buying when they first come up for sale, and people buying stuff to speed up farming necessary characters/gear when a new character is released as an event reward.

    Gotta have just enough to hook people in, and a bunch of filler like all those agents and minions, then dribble new ones in people are clamoring for.

    I’m Roken in the guild.
    Not sure how Raids work actually. Only 3 members can join each time? Should I just jump in if i see an open raid?

    As for characters, i’m 29 atm and my faves from the starting lineup are Electra (she does great damage), and Crossbones (his bomb attack is brutal).

    I’d be willing to bet Star Lord, Groot and Dr Strange will be added around the time Infinity War comes out.

    Apparently the higher level raids let in more people. The lvl 30 one is apparently 8 people. Might be good to let the alliance raid credits built up a bit.

    Also note that raid energy is finite and each person apparently has a single personal raid energy pool across all raids, so it's better if you don't join multiple raids because you may not finish it in time unless you dump money into it.

    Yeah, the 24 person limit to an alliance seems woefully small. If anyone creates a second alliance, I'll be happy to list it in the OP. Hopefully, they will increase the player count for alliances (if possible).

    arguably it's too large considering the raid size limit :rotate:

    I finally got a good orb open and unlocked Drax. Granted I've spent a ton of XP boosters already so I didn't give him much love so he doesn't really compare to my other characters, but it feels good getting a big amount of shards randomly.

    my take was that was only happening if the attack was lethal? otherwise it just does a normal attack then the jump back and web stun

    Yeah, Blitz works well with a wide roster. The power of each opponent is set based on your team power, so changing out people, and entire teams, nets you a little more than only running one team. The points you get from each victory are based on your opponent's power, but the multiplier goes up based on a flat number of previous victories.
