The fight mechanics are fun the ai is the problem it's the single most passive thing I have seen in my 5yrs of playing mcoc

With Viv and deathless vision - it was fun because he actually threw specials.

The other champs - dexxing infinite amounts of times trying to bait him to do anything ruined it.

Haven’t touch since I completed my objectives. But have you considered the possibility that they may have made some changes due to the widespread complaints? Just wondering if it’s not so bad after 1 week. But I will try to see if it’s different from when I first did it.

This was the first time I did the fight for the Kree objective. CMM's Indestructible buff helped a lot. Time it right and push Toad to special 3. He threw his Sp 3 immediately after I threw mine everytime, but I took no damage because of her Indestructible buff.

I'm not sure if they made changes to him holding specials or not. I did the fight on day one and I was getting hammered by them 😂🤷🏽

I think all of the SOS fights this time have been fun and not too difficult. Especially when compared to previous ones

In my alt account I used 7* r1 unduped kindrid and 5* aa for moleman.
Don't ask me about the revives and time it took.

It turned fun after I figured out that dexing sp2 with reverse control is 100x easier.

It was only bad for XL champs. Even then I got solos on two accounts.

Had the same experience, when i used Jugs he would hold specials the longest, with smaller champs the special baiting became much easier.

I think after designing the fight Kabam realised it was too easy and they just made him hold his specials more. There is no node for it tho so idk how they did it, a normal Toad throws specials much more often

Agreed. It has me really excited for the gauntlet 🙂

I actually did this fight AGAIN lmfao. Was trying to do it better. I've never ran back in a SoS fight to keep doing it. It's usually a one and done for me 😂

Lol! I can try! Basically just attack to get her phase charge. Once she gets that charge, attempt a parry to power drain Toad. She'll phase out and power drain him. She also gains solar charges every few seconds which helps increase damage.

Use Viv's Sp 3 first to gain reverse control immunity.

After that, you can use her Sp 2 to gain additional solar charges, or spam her Sp 1.

Use a 5 hit combo to inflict energy vulnerability debuff, then Sp 1 to deal more damage.

As long as Toad doesn't have a full bar of power, her Sp 1 will be unblockable.

To remove Toad's prowess: heavy, or bait heavy to punish Toad's heavy. I didn't intercept much because I hate obstinate charge lol.

Her mediums place Heal Block. Do that whenever. I didn't focus on it a lot because Toad's regen wasn't enough to be a problem.

Wash..rinse..repeat. Practice with Viv to get the rythym.

Here's the vid
I made of that fight. You'll get a better idea of it.
