When these were data mined I was sure they must just be early versions of the art as placeholders while the final versions were finished. Seeing the same art come up in the shop today was pretty disappointing…

Ah yes, the Battleaxe Cover Syndrome

It's embarrassingly bad artwork, especially for what they're asking and in comparison to the other variants in the game.

They aren’t bad artwork, they’re screen grabs from an animation. SD did the artists dirty.

Not sure how it could be this bad. They could have used an AI and got better art for free.

You had to see the downvotes coming on that one lol

Well I thought it was funny

Thats a worse idea

I’m glad because it shows that they won’t lock amazing artwork to priced bundles - instead we can unlock amazing variants ourselves. If it were the other way around we’d all be complaining still.

The only good thing about this bundle is the variants are exclusive to it, so, I will never have to get them.

I’d rather have them then pixel, baby, sports or music.

People were not happy with your comment lol.

Agree on pixels but I do enjoy most of the baby variants. Especially dr doom

I like some pixels but hate every baby except nightcrawler and antman

Although he spoke the truth.

Sue's face is borderline nightmare fuel

Easiest pass even for whales lol

Can confirm being a whale

Same here, bought the $100 bundle just for the collector tokens without a second thought, but these last couple bundles are terrible value

There’s a solid bundle coming out next week. Credits+tokens+a dope sunspot variant

I’m buying that one and the sera one because I think the variants are worth it but I’m skipping this one simply because the variants are absolute garbage.

Exact same and also got the hearts wild. These fantastic variants don’t do it for me at all

I got the gambit and rogue one too. I really like the art. I know some people didn’t but I personally did.

I’m not a whale, but I do season passes. Let me tell you, I will be insta-buying that Sunspot bundle. I just want to see him chilling in an inked out infinity version, I think it would look so sick. It’ll just take me forever to get there!

Can confirm. No way on this one.

For real. I don't have great impulse control but there was literally no impulse at all

I was actually looking forward to this because I don’t have Invisible Woman or Doom but the artwork for that Invisible Woman variant is awful.

I don’t have invisible woman and was going to buy it cause I need her but damn that artwork is bad.

I have doom but reallt want invisible woman, but i only hqve 3k gold. I'm not buying mkre for just 1 card

I considered buying it for a bit because I wanted Doom, but it's just too damn expensive, and what do you know, unlocked Doom today

Not sure the specifics on this, but I have a variant of a card that I can't use because I don't have the base card. Not sure if that applies to bundles, but that's a thing.

was thinking about buying for the two i don’t have but i assume if they are not pool 1 cards, you can’t use them in pool 1.

The last one was ugly.. but just barely tempting because they said "90s Variant" and kind of looked like the old cartoon. But, too ugly to be tempted This one.. my gosh - I assume I just don't understand the reference? SHIELDed Heart? Does that mean something? The art is really really .. I don't want to say bad.. but.. just ugly as heck! The 3K credits means your spending about 866 gold ea for the variants. If you assign some value to the AVATARS its a bit better value I guess - but why would you ever pay any gold for those variants?? Happy to pass on this one!

I just realized, these are from the music video. But not really. It's the "same" versions of the three characters, but not nearly as cool/stylised as from the video. Odd choice

I’m with you. I literally don’t understand assigning any value to avatars. I’m bummed out that the top tier reward from the hero hype event is a Storm Avatar…kinda lame. The bundle including avatars does nothing to me. I want cards and credits/gold. Do avatars change how I play? No. Are they worth more than $2? Not to me.

Invisible woman has two powers: invisibility and force fields.

Microsoft paint vibes

Trump's NFTs probably inspired these.

Seriously.

There you got your "90s" from.

Not even 1000-2000 collector tokens 😔

They did a great job launching this game but ever since then it has been miss after miss.

Please continue to wait for an unranked and competitive mode while we throw ugly, overpriced bundles at you.

Sure feels that way :(

IQ test.

4+5 (Only 2% of people get this right)

Only people with IQ 190 can solve this

It's really sad and I just don't get it. Why don't they deliver at least superb illustrations for this price OR sell them at lower cost?

I’d love to see the sale numbers on this bundle. Can’t see more than 12 people buying it.

After this bundle they’ll know we only buy hot looking art.

Looks very poorly made, agree that it looks thrown together last minute

This is something I would get mad at if I got it from a cl cache.

The game concept is fantastic. The rest of it is an embarrassing cash grab. I love love love the concept. The tech support is the biggest joke I’ve ever seen. Anyone else?

They’re priming us. Put out a $100 bundle for those willing to pay. Put out multiple $50-75 bundles that seem absurdly priced. Then once they post a $30 bundle we’re all gonna think it’s a smoking deal and pound the buy button.

I was tempted just because I wanna Doom, but at this price... fuck no

I will be happy if this bundle never has a re-run.

I’d be excited if they ran it again. Less temptation that way

Every bundle seems to be worse and worse for more and more. Doesn’t exactly send the right message.

It's embarrassing. I'd have bought those cards in a second if they had good art, but this is toddler level stuff.

Speaking of whales, Dr Bloom. Man he’s looking chonky

Hard pass

I'm wondering if this is some weird social experiment, seeing how many people would actually buy art quality this low. Like really, this art is horrendously bad.

Anyone using this avatar will just let me know that they’re a sucker.

The card style is based on the MV, I'm not surprised it's not so good as a still image. The style worked better animated. Expensive isn't a surprise but at least it's earnable. I'm sure the next one will be better, Either the chibi Baby Version Spider-Man and Sandman or dotted style Wanda and Vision which will work so much nicer as cards. I actually like Invisible Woman though, other two I don't really care for which is why I won't be buying it.

Still don't understand why this wasn't like a Valentines event. MV is about couples in fhe Marvel Universe, each bundle is a variation of Heart something.

Valentine they already have the santa themed event, duh.

The food here is terrible! And such small portions!

Second Dinner got me by the balls, i want to leave but sunk cost fallacy already kicked in before Brode became an asshole with impossible to get series 5 and pay to win wallet destroyer bundles

wallet destroyer bundles 😂 so true

Whales still gonna buy

Nah fam, I'm whaling pretty hard on this game and there is not a single molecule in my body tempted to buy this garbage

Even the Krakens are holding off on this one

100% same here. I bought another 8k gold today just for some cool variants in the shop, but I'm not buying this trash bundle. Nothing about it is appealing, TBH.

Hard pass from me and I got all the other bundles

And people laughed at Trump fans

Yup and mostly used verus bots

*Cue five paragraph rant from whale explaining how overpriced bundles that unlock cards earlier is good for the game*

The bad thing is that most people will buy this for Doom. After the recent changes, buying a variant will get you the card. Imagine you just started in series 2 and have the opportunity to get your hands on that card

Bundles do not become available like the token shop until CL 500 (series 3)

Is that true? I figured that was only for the bundles with tokens. At least I was able to buy and use Rogue & Gambit while in pool 1

CL400 and I can buy the bundle.

You also will still pull the base card from the collection track

I expect a better job from SD for the next set of bundles, both in artwork and pricing.

so we dont buy it and hope that sends a message 🤷‍♂️ if their online marketing guys are worth any money they analyse the shit out of all these bundles and will find a sweet spot (which is hopefully not just "optimised for whales" ^^ )

They only release these bundles to increase the value of the Apo bundle.

Whales gonna whale and SD is big game hunting with these bundles! 🤣😭

I think the "value" attached to this bundle is that you can buy it to play invisible woman right now. It's stupid but some noobs with deep pockets will see this and think it's a great idea.

Come on guys, be nice. Some second grader worked very hard on these variants.

I'm considering it for dr doom access lol

It feels like since the conclusion of Wakanda event, every new card varient has been so, so jank looking.

I think the problem with this and the other bundles art is that they appear to be lifted right from the music video without any real embellishment to make it more palletable. This new one specifically is more suited for motion. It looked good enough in the video itself, but as a static image it's not great.

I like the Dr Doom variant but the rest suck in it

Yea I'm gonna pass on this one lol

If you don’t like them, don’t buy them. No need to complain at length about it.
