Lol, I might buy a wireless router at some point, but I haven't had any luck finding ppl through ranked or online using public wifi, but it worked pretty well: even when I was at a low signal strength and playing someone 1000 miles away from me
Sending invites to online friends seems to be the best way to go. I haven't actually been trying to get online that much cos I'm SO new to this game and I'm still practicing, and hopefully I'll feel just as competent with my combos online as offline. I've also been grinding away to level up my NEW Martian Manhunter card in the mobile game and he's awesome
I thought I was the only Ultimate Edition player that would bother playing the mobile version but it's 'strangely addictive', as some say. Now that my fave' character in the game is at least playable in the mobile version (and he even has his Sektor uppercut!), I'll pay more attention to online. I'm also trying to beef up my friends list, but the leaderboards just show the top and most prolific players and I have a feeling when they see I haven't played any ranked matches yet (and I'm not a known player in the console community since the game debuted), a lotta gamers might seek higher-skilled players. I bet destroying me wouldn't help their rank much O_O
I live in Cali (hope I don't repeat myself too much here) but in terms of time zones, I'm most likely to be online after my graveyard shift at work lol (8 am EST) or 7-9 pm EST. That time zone rules the WORLD so it seems most relevant to use as a reference, and I've met more EC players online than in my own state
EC seems to have the strongest community
