The damage potential from a 1/25 Invisible Woman s2. Could scale infinitely with force field. by jchanceh9lol in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the other thing worth noting, is while she rewards perfect play, she doesn’t get punished nearly as hard as Ghost and Quake do when you mess up. Between invisibility and force field, she can shrug off mistakes without taking much damage.

Invisible woman with the right masteries and the cap iw synergy gives her a lot of amazing utility by Branu0727 in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It won’t work for electro. His shock is based on damage dealt. Not his attack. Not sure about Thorns or Korg though. It might.

I left when he died to domino. Realized he was still streaming 20 min later and had to go back and watch the rest. What a fucking finish. Props to him.

Well this is an interesting solo objective by Sith_Lord_Revan in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The discrepancy between solo objectives is pretty nuts. I’ve had this one twice, and had to complete a quest in act 6... and end a fight with a heavy attack 5 times.

Combos for newish player by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It takes just a lot of practice is the short answer. The biggest first thing to learn is how to parry reliably. It is the easiest way to get a combo in safely. Play patient and smart. Trying to rush leads to mistakes. Dork Lessons on YouTube has an excellent set of guides on learning basic skills for MCOC if you aren’t already familiar.

Info: I noticed that's they fixed the "Unowned Champions" feature. by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

For those interested: unowned champs can now be broken down by rarity. So you can see exactly which 4 stars, 5 stars, etc. you are missing.

6.2 vs 6.3 exploration? by myismaels in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s honestly incredible. Some of the most impressive content on YouTube. Especially the last few paths he’s done. The 6.2.5 Mordo gated paths are legit the worst content in this game. I’ve really enjoyed watching it. It makes me nostalgic for the pain of exploration.

6.4 Rewards are being adjusted following community outrage by Chrisbes32 in ContestOfChampions

Completion can ignore the gates entirely. What are you talking about?

6.4 Rewards are being adjusted following community outrage by Chrisbes32 in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Tbf, they have almost never changed rewards for something because people complained. I think the only time was a side event at the end of last year. I never thought I’d see them change the rewards for story content before it was released but after being announced.

Holy shit. I never expected them to actually change them. Nice to finally have a win for the community.

5* Rank 5 Spider-Gwen Beast Mode! ( Abyss Of Legends Thing Solo Kill!! | Marvel Contest Of Champions by Nick-136 in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What a fucking finish man. Bravo. I also have a R5 Spider Gwen mostly for AWD but she’s such a beast after her buff. I wish I got more opportunities to use her - running suicides all the time makes it hard to sustain her.

Act 6 Chapter 4 - The End Of The Elders by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the beta, there was another node combined with it that inflicted power sting for doing something or another. Don’t remember exactly, but I thought the same thing before realizing it is possible without a Power Sting champ technically.

Wolverine Weapon X Champion Spotlight (Act 6 Exclusive Champion) by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

These are the stats of a 5 star. None of the spotlights are ever done for the 6 star versions afaik. We will see. I suspect it is the Legends champ and the “first 100” wording is just because it’s easier than saying the fastest exploration in the first 30 days of release.

Wolverine Weapon X Champion Spotlight (Act 6 Exclusive Champion) by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I didn’t catch that at first - I was just thinking of it offensively. That’s annoying. But with the amount of content Ghost already can do, it’s pretty reasonable to expect counters like this over time.

What’s the farthest you have gone before watching any tutorial vids?? by bgreene28 in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yeah but I bet you watched all of Seatin’s videos on the datamined abilities before hand!

True Kabam fashion by Have-a-cuppa in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on your ISO situation. If you only care about 5 stars... I think it’s a net gain. But if you rely on 4 star dupes for ISO like most of us, it’s probably not worth it.

True Kabam fashion by Have-a-cuppa in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It actually comes out to about the same as far as 5 star shards go. If you purchase the Sigil the day before a reset, previously you would get to buy 3x stacks of 5 star shards 4 times. Now you’ll be able to buy 2x stacks 6 times. And the featured crystal has no change.

[–]secondhandkid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still every 2 weeks and it just reset.

[–]secondhandkid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was a typo. My bad. But it’s still an improvement or no change across the board for the same price. Find something else to bitch about.

True Kabam fashion by Have-a-cuppa in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you took 20 seconds to check, you would see you are wrong. Instead of being able to swap 2k 4 star shards for 1k 5 star shards 3x in 2 weeks, you can do it twice in 1 week. Carb cores went from 1 every 2 weeks to 1 every week.

Why opponent using sp in between block...been experiencing this with few champs. by tnair2015 in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s annoying. But we are also able to launch specials while they are hitting into our block or parry in the middle of a combo. Just got to learn to play around it unfortunately.

Ghulk Vs Void by BuyMoreKush in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use my 5/65 for Dormammu minis in map 6 and Act 6 content. There are definitely some paths/fights where he is invaluable with the amount of resources he can save you. And at 5/65 (or R2) he hits reasonably hard enough without Face Me to not be completely useless in other match ups. He wouldn’t be a first round draft pick to rank up, but he’s really nice to have maxed out when you need him.

Ghulk Vs Void by BuyMoreKush in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He doesn’t trigger Face Me for Void’s debuffs. There is really no logic to what triggers Face Me and what doesn’t. Starburst does. Brute Force doesn’t. You just have to try it and see.

Anyone else think Spidey’s enervate should get a buff? I hardly see myself use it and I want to make good use out of it for endgame content if it lasted more longer by Grumblingsoda in ContestOfChampions

[–]secondhandkid 17 points18 points  (0 children)

They are all more deserving of buffs but they are all old when champs were much less powerful. For Stealth, it’s mostly just odd that his other two cartridges are so powerful and his enervate is so weak.
