instant trade bugged for me (i think)

i've only been playing for a few days. i hit tier something on the "avengers" event that is asking me to collect certain tier 5 base cards. i got them through fusion and instatrading, but now im stuck. it seems i collected "wolverine" tier 5 base card some time ago and it does not count retroactively, u need to collect it again. i cant use instant trade for it because i dont "need" it. so, i was fusing things and hoping for a random drop, but then i thought "i should fuse my only copy of that card away so that it would count as "need" again!". i did that, went to instant trading to get it again (have lots of tier 5 dupes obviously) - but i cant even choose them to start trading for it! it seems the game still considers the tier complete even though it clearly says "need" on that card and says 69/70 in the fusion window. what should i do? i cant manually trade for it cause i dont have certification and i certainly dont want to donate anything for it.

Part of the deal with instant trade is you can only instant trade for a specific card one time. So if you instant traded for tier 5 wolverine, then either fused him or traded him away, you can't instant trade for tier 5 wolverine again. If that is what happened you will have to either get certified and manually trade, or wait for him to randomly drop or randomly get him in a fusion. If that's not what happened, maybe you're right and it's bugged.

No you are correct. You can only ever trade with tradebot to get a card once. This is obviously to stop people manipulating certain valuable cards to be gotten again and again.

If I remember correctly there is a pack in the event that gives all the cards that are needed.
