Strategy notes, tutorial videos, and outside resources.
X-Men Wolverine (LE) pinball machine has 81 recorded tournament games in Minneapolis, MN. A game runs about 17m, the median of 81 timed games, so budget for that in a round with a clock on it. The better-ranked player loses here 58.3% of the time, which puts it at 37/100 for difficulty. That is a low-variance machine: scores hold up and the stronger player usually wins, so it rewards the favorite.
Shot shots in a combo for Xmen specific "unique combos," after 10 such combos Deadpool is activated. Deadpool awards shots against villains.
Bash Wolverine enough and he gives you a multiball. For better points have a mode running as you start.
Hitting left stand-up targets enough times will qualify Hellfire Club MB. Right stand-up targets qualifies Brotherhood MB. Start at scoop.
Try not to start Magneto MB until you have at least started a few X-Men. The more XMen you start/complete = more points during Magneto MB.
Short plunge and hit either Storm ramp or Rouge shot for skillshot. If lock is lit at Rouge that is collected as well.
Lighting Blackbird at scoop during any multiball adds a ball one time. Blackbird lit via lower Launch in-lanes.
If you have Brotherhood or Hellfire Club and play a different villain mode, you can re-light villain modes by hitting the right standups.
Getting three LAUNCH lanes at bottom for Blackbird, this lights mystery at scoop. After first collect requires two sets of launch to light.
Start villain mode by completing blackbird inlanes (once or twice) after collecting mystery at scoop. Stack villain w/a MB to maximize pts.
Soft plunge to right flipper and hit Xavier. When villain mode is running shoot Xavier to show hidden shot and shoot it. Xavier is complete.
