Why the symbiote event was such a good event

Well, in my opinion at least.
You get a useful champ, but you have to upgrade him. This adds a goal to finishing Master and Epic that gave those quests more of a purpose.
A decent difficulty spike in the content. Golden symbiote sucked a bit the first round of epic, but once you maxed your sym and used the true strike boost, he was a one shot.
COUNTERS! Very often when we as a community get angry it's because of, as Seatin says, fun and interactive gameplay. *cough* Ice Phoenix *cough*, but here we had counters to all the nodes, which made for a fun and strategic event.
There's a reason why people hate getting Iron Patriot and seek out the Sparky's of the game. Besides the fact that Sparky actually hits decently, he has power control and taunt which makes him a great choice for, for instance, all or nothing nodes.
Most of the old champs are in dire need of buffing and this 2 champs every 6 months is not enough. I hope the symbiote event is a start that will change this game and make it more fun again.
(Though the global node AW change seems to be a counter evidence of that hope).

I pulled a Groot! I have just won the game!
I opened 2 previous and got Groot and Juggernaut. Oh and both characters have already been awakened. I was waiting to see if this event crystal would turn my luck around, but obviously it didn't, so I am no longer getting featured crystals. Waste
I pulled Hyperion.
"I just did a speed run through symbiote level when it came out. so excited for it, only to be let down by a miles morales. whole alliance was pulling the useful champs, and I got miles morales. so as a consolation prize to myself, I took Ghost Rider up to rank 4 (with a mystic Rank up gem) and i even used my mystic awakening gem on him that I was holding onto for a long time and dropped some sig stones. I took him for a test drive and really got a good feel for him. I soloed every fight with him in epic occult labs - took longer than I had wanted to, but he was at full health when everything was said and done. I got the standard 250 5* shards, but hey it gave me enough for my next opening, and I kid you not it was a Ghost Rider."
That's life though, never had a string of bad luck light that. Even when I was winning I was really losing. Rare items I had saved for good use were completely negated and trashed. Really a kick to the stomach, slap in the face, want to quit - but I look back and say to myself that this is just a fun game and I am just happy to play.
Not buying what btw?
Lmao of course u like it and so do i... I meant that towards people who are saying it sucked
As to the crystal, went in expecting Colossus.
Pulled Wasp.
Loved this event. It was fun, engaging, and strategic. The rewards were nice, as well.
Over all, I think this has been my favourite monthly event since I started playing all those years ago.
