MSF: Race to the Top

In MSF’s Race to the Top event requires players to level up their level 96 heroes to level 100 in order to earn valuable rewards

Scopely recently announced that the maximum level for Marvel Strike Force (MSF) has been increased to level 100. In order to celebrate the new max level, MSF is hosting a plethora of in-game events to help players increase their level.

One of the events that you can participate in is Race to the Top, which commenced on Monday, 22 January 2024.

Since the event only concludes on Saturday, 2 March 2024, players have enough time to complete the event’s objectives and earn rich rewards.

This massive event was designed to reward players for leveling up faster and bringing characters from level 96 to level 100. The Race to the Top event consists of several bonus events to help your progress.

You can therefore participate in sub-events while the Race to the Top is active. To score points during this event, you have to level up a character of each Origin to level 96 or higher, however, there are Point Limits on each of the levels for each of the Traits.

To reach the limit, you have to upgrade 10 characters of a specific trait to a specific level. The points you will receive are as follows:

Task Points
Upgrade 1 Origin character to level 96 100 points
Upgrade 1 Origin character to level 97 225 points
Upgrade 1 Origin character to level 98 375 points
Upgrade 1 Origin character to level 99 550 points
Upgrade 1 Origin character to level 100 1500 points

How to level up your characters

The activities that you complete in MSF will reward your characters with experience points, however, the only way you can increase your character level is by equipping six different gear pieces and then ranking their tier up.

Remember that your Commander level determines the max level your characters can reach, even though the current max character level is 100. This essentially means that you need to level up your own level in order to level up your characters.

You can increase your Commander Level by participating in Raids and Events and you can complete Campaign Missions to increase your level.
