MARVEL Strike Force: Cosmic Crucible and Weekly Events
MARVEL Strike Force is adding a new game mode called “Cosmic Crucible” where the first season of the mode will be called ‘Pre-Season” as a trial to improve the mode before the official start of Season 1 which will happen a few months later. Commanders Level 60+ are placed in a tribunal rating based 8-player brackets that are pre-seeded according to their TCP.
Defenses & Trials
Global Rules will grant specific bonuses to all rooms each season. Players will play six stages similar to Alliance War
There will be 3 Trials for each stage that last for one day. Players must attack all six defenses of the opponent where all enemy characters should be eliminated. Each room will only have a finite number of attacks so pregame strategy is advised before starting each trial.
Players are victorious when they finish more rooms than their opponent. “Victory Points” is a built-in mechanic to determine which player wins. Finished stages will be the top mechanic, then the fewest number of Offensive Attempts next, Turn Bonus + Healthy Characters + K.O.’s last. The player with the most TCP will be considered the winner If there should be any ties in Victory Points.
Rewards
It is by the division of the player where rewards will be granted. Basically, in order to get better rewards, players should have higher placements. These rewards include Teal Gears. It is highly recommended to achieve high rankings in tournaments in order to advance in the next Division.
Each character elimination will reward net Crucible Credits that can be spent in the Crucible Store including Purple, Teal and Orange gear pieces. Additional Crucible Credits and Elite Crucible Credits can be earned at the end of each tournament and at the end of the Season.
Launch Event
There will be multiple ways to earn these Cosmic Crucible Credits and Elite Cosmic Crucible Credits throughout the game. One way is through the limited-time login calendar where you can also get character shards for the Wakandans that were just recently reworked as well as valuable gear. Another way is through the milestone event where Cosmic Crucible credits will be placed randomly. Last but not the least, through the game mode itself!
