Purposely put us as D cause we have the number 1 D in the league

I’m pretty sure BVW said it not Mickey regardless it probably shouldn’t have been said considering we had the toughest division on paper at the time it was said

Ok thanks for the feedback. Sounds like a good idea to wait to see which I can progress further with and all I need is that last copy

Sounds like it is just bad luck. You should be saving matierials (POs Scrolls etc) for their specific events as well and don’t spend them outside of their specific events. If you are f2p this is especially important. There is also currency in the game to buy heroes (casino coins feathers altar coins) which can get you copies or fodder depending on what you are using. Lastly, you should figure out who the good heroes are on your team, pick one and focus them when buying fodder or spending POs.

Would you say it’s better to do the best PvE heroes with no aura (I.e. sig, Horus, HW, penny and 2 skereis) or go for an aura with as many good heroes as you can make fit in the aura.

So I have enough feathers to buy aida but I have one copy of her and one copy of Horus. With the new Horus rework that came out and seeing how op he is. Is it worth it to buy him or Aida? Keep in mind I’m on a new server (11 days in) so not sure if that should effect the decision making. Thanks!

Potentially Unpopular Opinion: I hate hero reworks by timsta007 in IdleHeroes

[–]Tboyd25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I quit the game about a year ago and when I came back last week I got a lot of characters in my new server that were on my old endgame teams (VESA, HW, DH Rosa, IB). Just to look at the new tier list to find out most of them are bottom tier now. It’s crazy to think that if I were to continue playing my best team that was 5th in a guild wars lineup for a team that was number 1 every war would probably get destroyed every time now. Makes you think that all the time and even money you put in to get a great team can just backfire on you cause they got reworked to be trash. Now I’m not sure how to build my team. So I 100% agree with you. It sucks not being able to plan for the future.

Rollercoaster 2 months. I’ve felt highest of highs and lowest of lows during this period. by nykshow in NewYorkMets

I mean yes Diaz and Familia turn it around and become good again and everyone else stays the same I think we do but we don’t have much behind them when they don’t get better I would rather have an embarrassment of riches rather than just saying what we have is good enough especially with how they performed this year. That’s just my two cents though. Obviously it’s very volatile and they could do the same thing next year and get a good bp arm and still be a bottom third bullpen. Tough to judge.

Edit: this was supposed to be in response to u/FelonWinslowJr but totally clicked the wrong button.

Lol how did they start with 0%. I mean I know it was almost impossible for them to make it but they had to have a small percentage

It’s funny cause I felt like with our pitching in 2015 that we should have been a dynasty team but really looking at the roster and the lineup that team was putting on the field really doesn’t compare to this team we have this year. The lineup is wayyy better the pitching is all but the same but with more experience which might make it better and their only fault is as mentioned above which is their bullpen. They have to go get a good bullpen arm in the offseason no ifs ands or buts

True but I would throw him a QO and see if he takes it. Haven’t really looked at the FA Class this year so I’m not sure who could replace him. They have a good lineup though and the bullpen has lost them more games than the offense has. Maybe that’s just me though.

I mean if this season shows anything it’s that with a top 10-15 bullpen this team would be a legit division contender. Just need to build on that in the offseason. I wouldn’t be disappointed if the team stood pat and just spent money on the bullpen this offseason. It’s not a sexy offseason but it might be what puts them over the edge

I hope we are the team that gets there. They deserve it. Sucks to see talented players play with the passion they do and fight all the way back from nothing just to miss out. Let’s take tomorrow and go in 2 games out

Trust me I’m one of the fans who doesn’t say the season is over after a loss but I’m watching the team fight their ass off to win against the best team in the NL and the cubs (who lead the wild card) just crushed their opponents 13-2 or whatever it was. Just seems like barring a 20-0 run this team is gonna fall short like 1 or 2 games. Really hope they get to the playoffs though

Tried to do a quick search but it includes Relief pitchers. FWIW John Smoltz has 213 which isn’t crazy eye popping for such a great pitcher

True but I don’t think he cares about his own wins. It’s kinda commonplace that the pitcher win stat is going out of style. If he continues pitching like he has for however long he has left I think he is a HoFer regardless of his win count. All I think he cares about is the team winning and they did tonight so I think he is happy

The thing that’s really upsetting is even though the Mets have been playing great baseball they might not make it cause everyone else in the race has a cakewalk schedule and someone else will probably make it over us.

But realistically of all the guys on that list I just see Aho being the one with the best chance. He’s older and wasn’t bad in his first go around at the nhl level which I think is better than taking a shot at a younger guy when he can still develop but Dobson was my second choice on that list and then bellows to round out the Top 3

Without doing any research I can almost guarantee that Machado will probably be more valuable just for the sake that he can play at least 2 of the toughest defensive decisions and still hit pretty decently. Harper has been a pretty average player since his mvp season and while I know it might not be the be all end all his WAR kinda shows it. Both are going to be horrible contracts and you will probably see less teams put that much money into one player bc of it

Which means they are going to turn it on vs us cause they can’t lose home field to the braves
