What do people do with a streak of bad picks?

This is probably been beaten before, but what do people do when you just get strings of bad picks?
I got HTD, and pick Mister Sinister from the 6* Nexus from the current Deadpool deal.
I grinded 5million gold for these 2 picks.
My roster of 6* isn't much.



I don't see how I can advance in Act 6 with the roster I got.

    Keep on keepin on. You need to accept that not every crystal you open is going to be amazing. Business as usual…

    White mags, Ultron King Groot and sorcerer supreme is a fantastic team. Drop in sym supreme, war machine or dragon man as the circumstances dictate and you may not have to rank up another 5* until you are TB except with variant gems.

    dragonman, ultron, htd all have immunities that you need in act 6
    SS, warmachine, and mags all do some good dmg or have good utility

    You know the posts where people complain about their 5* roster not being good enough for Act 5? This is basically that.

    Just rank what you need to get you where you want to go. Waiting on the perfect 6* counters for content might have you standing still for 18 months. Which is fine too, but it doesn't sound like that's what you want.

    It’ll get better. The Deadpool nexus deals really swung my luck (white magneto, nick fury!), but my streak had been pretty putrid. My previous eight 6* pulls were:

    Joe Fixit
    Mordo
    America Chavez (from a featured)
    Loki second dupe
    Juggernaut
    King Groot (post-buff, thank god)
    Yondu
    Sentry (from the compensation nexus, yes my choices were that bad)
    Karnak awakening

    You can go on an awful streak, but eventually you’ll get a good champ. As others have noted, you do have some great champs. Just keep going, you’ll get something awesome soon

    People will find literally anything to complain about. I have dragon man and sorcerer supreme at rank 3. HTD, war machine, white mags and symbiote supreme at rank 2. I don't have ultron but I would rank 3 him if i pulled him, king groot is rank 2 worthy even unduped if you like him, killmonger has a pretty devout following. You have a over 50% good champ to bad champ ratio which is honestly pretty great considering how large the champion pool is

    You will get a good pull eventually. Although it might take some times. Also, Howard and Mr Sinister is far from being bad. Just because they are not the so called "God Tier" don't think they are nothing.

    I remember when I got 6* Vulture. So disappointed but I try to explore him and find out that he is actually a beast. So work with what you have for now. Your roster is completely fine. Good luck!

    Howard, wags, sorceror supreme, war machine, symbiote supreme, dragon man, king groot, and ultron are awesome. Nebula and Killmonger are pretty good too. Your luck isn’t as bad as you think it is

    OP needs to git gud. That roster is perfectly fine. I’d gladly trade my Rhino, Juggs, Iron Fist for some of your 6* roster.

    5* are the ones you want to use in Act6 anyways because it was intended for them to be used and 6*R2=5*R5. You can't form t5cc before completing Act6.

    I would definitely push White Magneto, Ultron, Sorcerer and Symbiot Supreme as well as Dragon Man. King Groot, Killmonger and Howard are nice.

    I’m not going to tell you that you have a bunch of good 6*s, even though it’s true, because so many people have and there’s no point in saying it again. What I will say though is your 6* roster doesn’t determine anything at this point in the game other than your options for thronebreaker. 5*s are still capable of doing every piece of content in the game and pretty well at that. Second is don’t get discouraged; the 6* basic pool is one of the worst pools in the game. You aren’t going to get bad pulls forever, you just have to shake it off and continue.

    I watch the more interesting youtubers, that are willing to discuss application and use of the fringe and forgotten champs. sweadah just posted about using mordo in the side quests, it was pretty great.

    When I hit a bad streak, I keep on playing an opening. Luck will turn.
  • KDoggg2017KDoggg2017 Member Posts: 1,253 ★★★★
    Its like basketball. 🏀
    The only way out of a cold streak is to shoot your way out of it.
    So keep spinning crystals!

    That’s it. You have to learn to persevere. I duped my 6* storm after multiple bad pulls over a week ago, and then today I pulled a Shang chi from a basic, and a warlock from the DP event nexus. Your luck will come eventually

    That's actually a solid roster for the amount of 6* you have, far better than mine was at the same stage. There are more good/great champs now than there were then but I had a good 20 plus 6* before I got one the quality of sorcerer or buffed ultron or dragonman. Even still my usual 6* pulls are one good one every dozen or so pulls. You'll eventually get some champs you want but if you're luck is anything like mine be prepared to be disappointed more often than not. Over the years I've been play mcoc I've taken 2 or 3 breaks (just doing AQ to stay in my ally) and all of them were out of just not enjoying awful rng.

    Your luck is actually pretty decent. There is ALOT of good champs thrrr and you havnt been cursed with the original champs yet, wait till u start duping iron man, Karnaks and Jane fosters.
    Also you need to rank up Ultron he is absolutely busted
  • VendemiaireVendemiaire Member Posts: 2,178 ★★★★★
    That's actually quite the average. I pulled Ghost around July and haven't pulled anything good until September. Got pulls that won't mean anything to my current goals but when September arrived I pulled 6* Kitty (3 Cavs), Prof X (Marauder), Stryfe and Nick Fury (Day of the Deadpool).

    Best thing is to just enjoy what you can in-game like War, exploring Act content, trying out new quirky champions (iHulk and Mister Negative, etc) and don't wait. They'll come.

    I have about 65 6* at this point and still use my 5* more times than not because a good portion of my 6* just don't cut it. Yes, some of them are great and I do use those, but I wouldn't get too hung up on 6* roster if the champs aren't there. It's become easier to pull and rank up both 5 and 6*, but if you can't get a 6* you want use the 5* version. If you don't have either maybe you can find another option.

    You dont need 6* in act6. 5* are easier to obtain and still worth to rank for ALL content so far.
