Gifts, Gods and Gold

Get into the holiday spirit this week with a gift courtesy of the MARVEL Strike Force Art Team. Or do your best grinch impression by stealing battles with characters earned in the upcoming Legendary Event and Blitzes.

MUTANT VAGABONDS
Reap big rewards using your Marauders squad with the Mutant Vagabonds Milestone. Battle with your Marauders team in Arena, Raids, and Blitz to earn these boosted rewards. Earn additional points by leveling up and equipping gear to Marauders. For a limited-time, it pays to be evil!

NOW LIVE: FAVOR OF THE GODS
Don't miss your chance to recruit and rank up Heimdall during the Favor of the Gods Event Campaign. You'll need Heimdall, along with the rest of the Asgardian team (Thor, Loki, Hela,, and Sif) for the upcoming Black Bolt Legendary Event, so earn as many Heimdall shards as you can.

NEXT LEGENDARY EVENT
You can't keep a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent out of battle for long, which is why the next Legendary Event features the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. himself, Nick Fury. Whether you're building the timeless Fury S.H.I.E.L.D. team or the elite Alliance War defense team featuring Agent Coulson, Nick Fury is an essential roster member. The preview period begins next week, so start gearing up and leveling up your top Kree team for a chance at recruiting Nick Fury.

UPCOMING BLITZES
Appearing in Blitz first next week is Elektra, the deadly member of the Hand. Then quickly restock your Blitz Charges, because Asgard invades Blitz next with Sif in the Shield Maiden Blitz. Fight your way to Asgard's fearless Protector and continue building your Asgardian team for the upcoming Black Bolt Legendary Event.

PAYDAY FLASH EVENT
Assemble your soldiers of fortune and go hunting for a 24-karat prize in the upcoming Payday Flash Event. Lead your top Mercenaries into battle for a chance to earn piles of Gold!

3.7.1 Release Notes

NEW IN THIS RELEASE:

• The Daily Objectives badge can now be dismissed after completing the Ultimus Raid Keys objective.

• The Ultimus Raid Keys Daily Objective no longer gets stuck at the top of the Daily Objectives list.

• Red Star Orbs can no longer be opened using the Multiple Orb Open feature due to rewards being displayed incorrectly.

• Store tabs updated with larger, better icons.

Favor of the Gods

The year may be ending soon, but the fight against Ultimus rages on this week. December begins with an Event Campaign sponsored by Asgard, a telekinetic Blitz, a cool calendar, and a fantastic Legendary Event. First up, we're journeying across the Bifrost once again and joining Heimdall on a secret mission.

FAVOR OF THE GODS

Your first chance to recruit one of the newest Asgardians is coming up with the Favor of the Gods Event Campaign. Join Heimdall and his fellow Asgardians on their mission to stop a corrupted Hela and her undead army from overwhelming Nexus Earth. You'll need a top squad with the limited-time "Galactic Warrior" trait, so use the Roster filter to see who needs to be geared up and leveled up for this important mission.

And don't forget: Asgardians are the required team to recruit Black Bolt at 5-stars, the newest Legendary character, so start preparing now.

WINTER LOGIN CALENDAR

A winter storm is dropping a flurry of character shards and Gold this month. Earn at least 1 Snow Globe Orb per day for 22 days in December when you log in. Each orb guarantees 3-5 character shards for select marquee characters and 60K in Gold, so don't miss a day!

UPCOMING BLITZES

Arriving in Blitz this week is the Chaos Bringer himself: Stryfe. If you're building a Marauders team, don't miss out on adding their Protector to your roster. Stryfe can steal and gain stacks of Taunt, fortifies with Deflect, and hits enemies with an AoE Ability Block Ultimate attack. And working a shift in Blitz after Stryfe is Night Nurse. Recruit and rank up this City Support Specialist to add sustain to your Raid team.

INVISIBLE WOMAN & THE SINISTER SIX

Keep your eyes open, because the Invisible Woman's Legendary Event, "Now You See Me," is reappearing soon. You'll need a 5-star team of Sinister Six members for a chance to recruit the Legendary light bender for the Fantastic Four. To help prepare for her arrival, the Bonus Event, “Double Trouble,” where Campaign nodes will reward 2x character shards for Sinister Six members, will also be coming soon.

Character Wish List

I am a big fan of comic books.  I grew up on both Marvel and DC.  So when I found out both companies were getting mobile games, I was very excited.  The DC Legends game is fun and has a lot of characters.  Marvel Strike Force is fun, but I feel it is lacking a lot of characters.  Here is a list of characters I wish would get added into the game:

- Hobgoblin
- Green Goblin (not the one from Into The Spider Verse! I want the classic one!)
- Stick
- Gambit
- Valkryie
- Sif (now available)
- Warriors Three
- Yellowjacket
- Silver Surfer
- Moon Knight
- Blade
- Quicksilver
- Domino
- Adam Warlock
- She-Hulk
- Dr. Doom
- Nova
- Beta Ray Bill
- Ebony Maw
- Cull Obsidian
- Corvus Glaive (now available)
- Proxima Midnight (now available)
- Daken
- Jigsaw
- Ego
- Sandman
- Kraven the Hunter
- Dr. Octopus
- Chameleon
- The Lizard
- Tombstone
- Morbius
- Tarantula
- Black Cat
- Lady Bullseye
- Iceman
- Nightcrawler
- Archangel
- Havok
- Hellfire Club
- Hydra Bob

I'm sure I will be adding and removing from this list as characters are added, etc.  So stay tuned!!
