Cube drain; I've never had to use so many cubes in one event. Sniping and tagging have become worthless points wise. I've only been tagging ally seeds. I've even passed on high level bosses because the bounty is simply not worth it.

We now have a single player game; The only bosses worth hitting are your own. In order to stay competitive you have to send out your own bosses with the mvp bonus intact. this means you are pretty much on your own.

Money is mandatory at this point; I decided at the start of this event that Mobage will never get another penny from me. I have noticed that the lack of raid bonuses to my deck have forced me to dump an increased amount of cubes into a boss in order to secure mvp and stay competitive. I have 13.4k deck power and the only reason I'm close to tier 2 is the fact that I've dropped almost 300 cubes into this event. I feel really bad for the players with 10k and under DP. They have next to no chance at tier 2.

This event is killing our community; Due to the above reasons (namely the lack of co-op) the wiki chat has seen a decline. The mvp bonus has hampered a lot of players tactics for events, and limited how we play this game as a community.

I really hope this 4X MVP bonus is a one time thing because in the long run, it will kill this game. Unfortunately, I have a feeling it will become the norm for these events.

Oh, I actually enjoyed the 4x MVP this event. I have exhausted less cubes and I have been able to survive for longer periods with the increased number of sniping opportunities available. I would assume that teamwork would increase as well, but I haven't had the opportunity to visit chat much this event due to my schedule. So, I can't really comment on that issue.

Overall though, I don't think that this event has killed or is killing the community. I presume that last event just exhausted many players resources and scanning has been drastically reduced.
