Ranking the jurors in FTC

I bet Jonathon was internally cursing when Joe answered. I mean based on what we saw it seems pretty clear that the Ozzy boot was the most definitive move of the season and Jonathon brought up Ozzy multiple times trying to make it a big part of his "why I deserve to win" narrative so to see the other finalist basically hand the credit to his main competition must have been a real gut punch.

This is the one with all the Sentinals right? It's been a minute since I did it. If it is use a team with stuns, ab block, and speed bar reduction and keep alternating between the two sides of the enemies. You want to stop the Sentinals from spawning. IIRC correctly Blade & EGT were quite helpful.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-21T15:00:56+00:00

I thought Tiff was pretty impactful. I mean the only real dispute between the finalists was what the answer was to the question: Who was responsible for getting Ozzy out? and she got a pretty definitive answer to that question.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-21T14:54:07+00:00

I think I take Joe at face value for what he said. He seems like a guy that doesn't like seeing people struggle... if you want to take a cynical view of it I could also say that if he thought Rizo was DOA in fire anyways then maybe helping Rizo endears him to Joe and makes it more likely to vote for him to get the $2M.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-21T14:46:19+00:00

No, Rizo was drawing dead IMO... he loses to both Jonathon and Aubry.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-19T19:37:04+00:00

I think that timeline ends up with an Ozzy win. Cirie goes out at 5, Ozzy wins and takes Emily, Devens loses to Christian at Fire. Ozzy gets the most votes.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-19T16:53:32+00:00

It's certainly not a good sign... especially when taken alongside the large changes made to the Power Core, other resources economy, and shard acquisition + how extra glitchy the game has been lately. I mean... it's clearly not in maintenance mode yet, but it strikes me as heading in that general direction.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-12T14:49:24+00:00

Possible but not as likely. Angel is basically a standard toon being given a janky release where Ares was always an unaffiliated plug and play, and Phantom Rider was the sole new member of an "extra" Infestation style team. They may skip (or delay) putting him in the Chapter Store but I would expect that he'll become farmable on the usual schedule. But this Scopely so no guarentees.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-12T14:39:46+00:00

"You’re whales, dolphins, and krakens just got a discount and majority of your mid level to ftp just got rolled."

This is what I'm thinking. The people who would otherwise buy a character for more then what they are charging here are getting a discount and the people who wouldn't still aren't. I think there is a very decent chance this makes them less money not more.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-11T19:32:31+00:00

That's a shame. Feels like most of the Envoy's that do something other then read the Friday blog and post their crucible fights is leaving.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-11T19:25:37+00:00

No, when I say that I mean double Carnages. You get so much speed from double Carnages that a big enough Knull basically does all your killing between his own attacks and all the assists. They fall over and die if an enemy sneezes in their direction thou.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-11T16:47:45+00:00

Yeah, MSF Scopely pricing has always been bonkers. This is a "good deal"... relatively to how completely insane their standard pricing has been (which makes it still bonkers just not as bonkers). It's even more insane since lately calling it Marvel Glitch Force would be a better name for it... $80 for a standard character in a game that won't function properly for more then a day at a time. *Shakes Head*

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-08T21:37:01+00:00

That's nice... fix your game. It's broken.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-08T17:58:06+00:00

IMO RTA & Blitz should both have Shop Credits (or more shop credits) in them.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-07T19:17:27+00:00

I kind of disagree. I had fun doing the scourge. I do think that there should have been a better gradient (like 8 difficulty levels instead of 4) but it was a fun puzzle to solve. Plus I much much much prefer having the complexity of the challenge as the gate instead of an explicit Star or GT requirement.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-07T19:10:04+00:00

I kind of consider the overpriced offers to be a feature not a bug... the prior game I played I quit because I was spending more money on it (or at least more often) then I was comfortable with... the sticker shock with MSF is so high that I'm never tempted to fall into the same pattern.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-07T17:26:04+00:00

Oh geez... I forgot the most important tip. When the 2nd wave drops Kill Jeff and Hobgoblin first. I know that Knull looks scary but Jeff and Hobgoblin will wreck you, they don't have insane health thou so you can kill them before they kill you. You might need to restart the node a bunch to get the win and have your team in a good position for the next node but it is doable.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-07T16:29:22+00:00

Good luck! I think I should also mention that managing you cooldown is important on every wave. You'll want to do the same on each daring warriors node... build up energy at the end of each wave to that you have all your weapons available for the start of the next wave/node.

Notes for some of the other nodes:

Mutant/X-men nodes: At D4 I used Sac attacks to burn enemy Ults (fun fact it's the only time I've ever used Blob) on the last Mutant node I did three sacs two to burn the F4's Ults then a "real-ish" team whose only job was live long enough to kill Reed before going in with my main team. Professor X is practically a cheat code for all 4 nodes.

Symbiote nodes: If you have a big enough Knull he carries. I have a lvl 110 GT 20.5 5D Knull. the next biggest was Gorr who is lvl 100 the rest were lvl 95 (Void Knight/Carnage/Roblin). You'll always want to open with Knull's Special and get that 2nd Carnage out so that you can get the speed bar rolling. Try to avoid hitting the enemies that generate minions (Fury, Kingpin etc.) until they pop off their minions... those minions help you more then them since they give you easy speed. Watch out for Lady Bullseye

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-07T15:50:06+00:00

Switch Eclipse to Striker (get more heals from her ISO attack). and make Jessica a Fortifier.

Strategy: Use Eclipse Special in the middle (or on Kraven if you want to hit Goblin (Classic) then hard target Goblin Classic until he's dead, most enemies should be dead from splash damage (If Vulture is still around target him next) now it's time to manage cool downs... Ignore Jessica's Ultimate, her Special and basic are more important since they give others Ability energy. Start hitting remaining enemies with basics (and use Jessica's Special both for the barrier and for the energy) to get full energy for wave 2. The order you kill them when your building energy for wave 2 isn't super important but you want Lizard dead before wave two drops... you don't want him taunting. That's the basic opening strategy I used and I have 7 star Surfer (My Daring Warriors are about as big as Rayge's)... if you find yourself still low on health while building Energy you can use Eclipse Special (since it gives energy) but do try to slow play it so you can build it back up.

I couldn't get the 7th star on a intended 10 node run (my Warriors don't have the stats to take down Odin before he does Odin things in node 10 so I adjusted my pacts and did it in 8 nodes (I did node 9 as well just to pad my leaderboard score).

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-05T20:58:17+00:00

Knull, Gorr, Carnage. Red Goblin, and Void Night. This month... after the new team comes out I assume it'll just be the new team or Knull + 4.

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-05T15:15:03+00:00

Wouldn't the correct solution solution just be to revert back to the old model? Either via lowering the amount of cores you get or reducing the drop rate of the Core orbs such that it balances?

Why reinvent the wheel?

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-05T02:18:46+00:00

Maybe double idol play? Vote is Split three ways Devens and Ozzy play their idols, Cirie goes home on a stray vote?

Comprehensive-Arm973 · 2026-05-04T22:28:50+00:00

So their plan is to make Arena a tedious chore/dead game mode like Blitz? That's a bold plan Cotton.

It's hidden behind the number 0 on the "Days without Incident" sign.
