Does a premium profile pic do anything?

If we are paying 500 units for a tier 3 profile pic will it add any benefit of modification other than being a different profile pic?

    Nope! It's strictly cosmetic, and not at all mandatory. You'll be able to choose from all of the Champions in your roster, but if you choose, you can pick up a Premium Profile Pic for Gold (Tier 0) or Units!

    Are the premiums "unlocked" or do we need to pay again each time we change back to a previously bought portrait?

    Does it reduce the number of champions visible on your profile if you use a generic profile pic?

    What do the different tiers mean? Does it just give you access to different avatar/profile pics? Do you have a list of what each tier includes?

    They are unlocked. When you purchase a Profile Pic, it's yours to keep and change to and from whenever you'd like!

    It does not! This only changes your Profile Pic, and does not affect the Top Champions on your profile.

    @Kabam Miike I'm assuming your top 4 champs remain there even if you change your profile pic?

    Different Premium Pics are in different tiers. For instance, the Pic of Wolverine's claws is a Tier 0, and costs 1000 Gold to purchase, while the Collector image is a Tier 3 and will be 500 units. If you'd like to change to Pic of your own Champions, those aren't considered Premium, and won't cost anything to select.

    We'll be adding more Pics as time goes on, but aren't going to ruin the surprise of what you'll see when you update next week!

    no because the 4 champs are still the same because if you open a player profile you see on the left the profile pic, and at the center real big the top champ and the 3 PI highstes following champs.

    If i understand this right ;)

    Do we have to purchase all the others tier (0,1 and 2) if we want the tier 3 pic ?

    It would be really nice to get an answer to this question from a mod.

    Yep! None of that is changing. We realize it might be a little harder to find a Duel target for a specific Champion after this, but this has been a long requested feature that we wanted to bring to you all.

    Finding duel targets is hard enough as it is. People resort to line bots for that info.

    Have you ever considered adding in a search for champs to duel?

    Even though duel skirmish is no more, most of us still keep up with hard targets for practice in AW

    If you choose weak champions this will affect the prestige ?? If so, it would be a big problem for gestation points

    What even... what...

    If someone's top champ is blade and they change their profile pic to iceman, doesn't that mean you will duel their iceman?
  • ChampioncriticChampioncritic Member Posts: 3,347 ★★★★
    To add on, if someone chooses cap's shield as their profile pic, how do we know what we're duelling
