I don't, but if you have the hero specific stash tabs I could see storing sets for prestiging being helpful.

Holy shit, this game is so much better than the last I've played.
I played the closed beta and thought it was horrible. Then I played some months after that and thought "wow, this is better", but still got bored quickly.
Now yesterday I've logged in again and dang, the game is good. I mean, dang. I remember the last time playing, I was having trouble progressing on the second difficulty level with Daredevil and now he is Boss. So fun to play with the signature move and the combo bar. It's so smooth and destructive.
I love it!

If you didn't use them in the first place, then absolutely not. The only time I would save yellows is if you plan on prestiging that character. And even then, I only save them if I have that specific Hero tab.
Daredevil was very bad at launch. Since his review he is very good. I was pretty much in the same boat, had Thing and Daredevil as my starters, both very poor at that point. Thing still is, to most people.
I prestiged Thing last week to give him a spin, because most people on this thread keep ragging on him.
He's fine now. Yeah some of his powers may "look" boring, but effectiveness-wise it's fine and I had no problems.
I believe a couple of our posters who have played him recently said the same (Red Arremer and Blank?).
Thing gets a bad rap from launch.

I think it's around 15.4 gigs, but not totally sure.
He's solid now (har har!) but has a few issues still:
1- Clobberin' Time maintenance is annoying. They increased the duration to 30 seconds so that we wouldn't have to hit the button so often, but they just reverted this change. It sucks.
2- No reliable CC breaker now that Clobberin' Time has a cooldown.
3- Teammate tree is woefully barren. I think it has 5 skills in it? And 3 of them are designed to be 1 point wonders. Very sad.
Other than that, he's got a crazy ultimate, good single target attacks. Better than average AoE (for a melee) and one of the better movement powers/unstoppable force users.
Ya that's how I feel in general. He's fine and average, but not my favorite.
But by no means is he a terrible character.
Got my gambit to 46. Fun fun character. Glad I bought him. Going to buy psylocke next. Might try the push to 60 with gambit first but I've been trying to stay with my buddy. The 5 level limit on tiers suck. Even now I passed him up. He'll have to solo from 41 to 45 to catch back up. Oops.
Since I've been out of the game for a long time and there's a bunch of new characters; I'll ask about what y'all think about some of my favorites.
Sue Storm
Reed Richards
Captain America (he was all right, has he changed?)
Scarlet Witch (I actually have her at lvl 23, has she changed?)
Sue Storm
Reed Richards
Captain America (he was all right, has he changed?)
Scarlet Witch (I actually have her at lvl 23, has she changed?)
Sue -- average middle of the pack; I think her powers look very cool visually
Reed -- not out
Captain America -- very good now
Scarlet Witch -- awesome now

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Sort of complicated/unique but totally awesome. Can lay out some serious AoE damage.
Sounds cool. Given that luck granted me three characters I already love in the comics (Spidey, DD and Wanda), I'm thinking of buying a new one as a thank you to the team making the game.
Dr. Strange might be it.
He's possibly the best character in the game right now. Certainly top 3

Played some THing today, his third talent tree is hilarious, in that it's a joke, anyway. 3 toggleable auras (of which you can only use 1, natch) and 2(!!!!) taunts.
But yeah he's totally fine, may even be better than Hulk now, which makes me sad for the green guy.
On another note, I got Loki to 30 today but kind of hated every moment. He seems super weak, especially now that even Thing has a much easier time with everything. I tried 3 different specs and none of them felt fun or very effective. Am I doing something wrong here or what?

Loki is my second most played character behind Luke Cage.
Did you not try Bouncing Bolt?

Holy crap, I just noticed the buffs show in the buffs tab, buffs from abilities and passives. I wish they were identifiable by the icon but I guess it just got put in and they will be working on it.
I sometimes wonder if it's worth getting buff stuff when you could hardly tell visually that you have the buff, if they add icons in a easily viewable spot that will help things. Like a RPG or Diablo.

There's a good chance the packs on steam will go on sale during the summer sale, I was thinking about picking up http://store.steampowered.com/app/265292/ (Avengers assemble pack). But it's really damn expensive, 60$ for 4 heroes + a couple of costumes? Damn, more expensive then league.
Well to be fair, it's not just a "couple" costumes. It says 12 costumes, that's a lot.
Plus 4 stash tabs
I pulled Loki out of my last random box and he seems incredibly fun.
Probably my favorite character so far and all his trees seem useful that I'm not sure what to spec in.
You just hate mischief.
my favorite character to play as, though a tiny bit of that is bias because im a strange stan

I think I'm doomed to miss all these random hero giveaways. It's not so bad, Storm is fun, just sore that the one time I did have a random hero box I got another Storm haha.

Kind benefactor with the hook up. Hope I don't get Storm again; show me Ms. Marvel!
Edit: Daredevil, woo. My roster finally grows.
Ya I bought the Earth X costume, I think it looks great in-game. I like it better than the Noir one, which is what I used this whole time.
I don't like any of the other costumes at all. (well I like the yellow one, but I don't want to use default costumes... I need to look different than everyone else)
I've grown comfortable with the fact that I'm just going to have to buy Ms. Marvel.
She will never pop out of a box until after I do so and I'm fine with that.
Glad you got another hero! I've pop Storm as a dupe twice now!

Really loving Psylocke, it's like I've been training for her since Scarlet Witch and Emma Frost.
Lay down the vacuum orb to gather everyone up + -10% attack
Put down the circle aoe dot that slows dramatically
Then do a aoe melee spinning dive ninja thing followed by another spinning ninja twirly attack
Put down another aoe slow just because it's a mental ability which buffs my physical attacks (omega points spec)
These abilities work off each other buffing and doing interesting things, like healing me and giving me more hp. Which is why I wish I could see what buffs are on me and stuff because I forget what's going on and what's down, but whatever, I'm doing enough damage and I'm staying alive I guess.
And spend some psi meter with brutal Psi Strikes for a bit (currently 13,800 - 21,000 x3 with +40% damage each consecutive strike). So deadly.
Fighting bosses is pretty safe and easy. I can put out the decoy if I'm getting my face mashed in to take off the heat, like Emma's pet with taunt. It's a low cooldown stealth so I can just keep doing it.

I bought Squirrel Girl with shards last night and she's really fun so far. Plays like my endgame Cyclops where she can just stand there and heal through most trash mobs while maintaining dps.
Yes, I sent you an invite before and you never accepted. Just say whatever your in game name is and im sure someone can get to you. Not gonna be on tonight, sick as shit.

Man the Marvel Heroes Gaf people are saints. I shall repay the favor by attempting to get extra codes for here. I have a few store gems left over (70ish) I wonder if that's tradable.
Also look at this cake farm pic. Also there's a guy that afked near a high traffic spot and got a lot of cake.
I'm almost near the 365 cake point without doing either though, 40 more to go, and one more level for Psylocke 60 which I may go straight to prestige. Need 2 more costumes for another craft bwahaha.

There's actually a lot of people that can, they just don't for whatever reason. Maybe they don't even know that they can, I don't know.
