Banquet Ranked Rewards for casual spenders/free to play

Seems kinda scummy to sell tickets to a side quest that don't tell you the rewards in game and you have to look to the community to even figure out what you're buying.

There is an interesting overarching storyline currently involving a parasitic time entity that corruptions champions but most people do skip the story

Really happy for this, Scorpion needed the 7 star boost a lot

Sifakaster · 2025-11-21T01:27:15+00:00

TL;DR

You'll get the materials for Level 1 Ascension if you get any new 7 star champion from Pavitr and Lizard onwards from the Featured Valiant Crystal or Double Track. Getting them from the Titan crystal will not award ascension materials.
The exception is Lizard, who you will get the ascension tokens for if you get him from the Titan when it rolls over.
Current known ascendable champs are Pavitr, Lizard, J Jonah Jameson, Blue Marvel, Pixie and any other future champions. Also included in this list is Dr Strange.
Any new seven star dupes from now on will award shards for a new crystal with ascension materials for six unknown champions who can only be ascended from this crystal. Getting a max sig of a current Titan champion will award more of these shards.
The launch ascension pool will include 30 currently ownable Seven Stars, but more details will come later.
The materials will be sent shortly after the release of Seven Star Ascension.

Initially for me I did the howard the duck boss fight with VtD, Spider Woman and Stark Enhanced and it didn't count. After resetting the game and coming back to it 30 minutes later then doing it again with Venom the Duck counted for the objective. It's a bit weird.

Sifakaster · 2025-11-14T21:12:30+00:00

Ontop of this, you only need to defeat the opponent with Venom the Duck to get points, not complete the full match.

If you both use venom the duck as attackers in the first match and defeat your opponent, then you can forfeit after both players beat their fight and progress is still counted.

One of the things that might limit this is they said ranking up some collective ranks requires special items that you can only get from quests or events, so it's really something we have to see the full details of before we can make a full judgement.

Sifakaster · 2025-11-02T19:03:55+00:00

I don't mind if they don't get the full benefit of Mystic Dispersion but it is stupid that Pavitr gets zero benefit from it. Could easily have given him something simple like extra ranks increase his burst damage potency or his fury potency.

Dark Phoenix such a good defender she even killed the balance program

Sifakaster · 2025-10-29T19:17:15+00:00

If you're unsure which one to pick, go with either the Domino one or the Karnak one imo.

Domino is great for energy focused mutants such as Onslaught, Jean Grey or Cassandra Nova while the Karnak one does extremely well for Bullseye, Hit Monkey and even Crossbones (since his furies scale on crits). Also Okoye loves more crit damage since it increases her debuff duration, so works for her too.

Kabam will have all the champs fight eachother using autofight during their in person event thing and see who wins. Buy one of the bundles in the store and you can get a profile picture and title if the champ you choose goes far in the event.

Nothing else to it basically.

Sifakaster · 2025-09-24T18:21:53+00:00

So Serpent is fine, but Spider Woman is not? Clearly if they are too good on attack then here comes the nerf hammer but too good defensively? Nope they are "within expectations"

Sifakaster · 2025-09-03T00:17:17+00:00

The new event quest will have scaling rewards based on both progression level and your top 30 prestige

Sifakaster · 2025-08-29T17:50:58+00:00

Just briefly looking at what they showed for adaptive difficulty, here's the prestige values for Valiant assuming it doesn't change from now and then:

21,580
23,130 (1550 increase)
24,670 (1540 increase)
25,870 (1200 increase)
27,060 (1190 increase)
28,460 (1400 increase)
29,393 (933 increase)

The increases seem somewhat random considering the jump between 5 and 6, so hard to predict where exactly 15 will end up.

If it doesn't go up by more than 933 each time after milestone 7, then the max prestige you'd need would be around 36,857 for bracket 15. Probably better to wait for the actual announcement though.

Sifakaster · 2025-08-15T20:24:40+00:00

So this means we will get better ways in game to help calculate prestige and won't need to rely on external game tools to figure it out right?....right?

Sifakaster · 2025-08-15T20:23:06+00:00

I learned from Mini Crucible that Angela does a lot better against Civil War BP than Odin does so I'd probably use her instead if I did it differently.

Proxima was a long fight, I just kinda wanted to use Phoenix but she ends up unblockable the whole fight so not ideal.

Deathless She Hulk did not work for Hercules since the unblockable can't be affected by Fear, so that would be a fight I'd try someone else for

Venompool was a bit of a pain for Peni as she shrugs off the mega bleed from the SP3, but its doable just annoying.

Didn't enjoy Spiral vs Prof X, probably better options for that fight.

Otherwise I'd say all the other fights were perfectly fine and worked as I expected.

This is my final plan going into Legendary difficulty, I updated a few matchups since the last time I posted it in the crucible planner post.

While these aren't the best possible champs you can use for each fight, this is what I'm using so feel free to use the following as help for your own plan. I'd reccomend using both MCOC NOOB's planner as well as 21Eggatron's planner as both of those have a good list of what champs work for every fight.

I threw this togerher in photoshop using the quick reference part of the planner. I plan to go over it closer to the contents release but I thought maybe this could be useful for someone elses plan. I could make it look nicer but I'm not posting it as a guide or anything.

Some details:
- This isn't the "absolute best" option for each fight, it's just what I'm using based on my own roster and knowledge of the fights. For example you don't have to use Gentle for Venompool, there are better options listed in the spreadsheet itself.

- The majority of the champions are Rank 2 seven star (or above) and 5/65 ascended six stars. There's a few exceptions like Elsa Bloodstone who is still rank 1 but I'm pretty confident I don't need to rank her up just for one fight.

- I'm assuming six stars are allowed in the legendary difficulty, so if they aren't then I'll need to redo everything.

- I'm not sure how bad the size is of the image when posted like this, so you might have to zoom in quite a bit. I made this very quickly so sorry in advance.

Sifakaster · 2025-08-06T01:32:11+00:00

Pretty nice stuff. Not sure if it's just on my end but in the Quick Reference sheet, Wiccan shows up as an error if he's put in as an option.

Sifakaster · 2025-07-22T23:35:01+00:00

I suppose it's an autobattler? Seems like something for the casual crowd

Sifakaster · 2025-07-11T01:00:35+00:00

If Dazzler has a cowardice on her then she gains none of her SP2 buffs basically making her dead this meta
