MCOC is the most grindy game ever
MCOC takes the champion as the most grindy game ever
No other game comes close to MCOC in terms of time needed to grind
Right in the midst of grinding points for battlegrounds extended season solo event (I'm at 250k points) we get thrown another mode that requires more grinding (fortunately we get thrown a lifeline with free podium upgrades)
In my mind I'm thinking most players won't be playing Coliseum next time without free podium upgrades
Right when Kabam says AW is changed to cut down on time spent playing during the holidays, we get Coliseum with Adam Warlock
I'm so sick of Adam Warlock right now, he has passive power gain and I'm waiting for him to throw his specials and coming out of his golden closet
I'm using ramp up champions but 7 min is too short for my favourite Aegon or Star Lord
Every alliance can easily hit the top peak milestone bcos of the free podium upgrades but what about next time?
No one is going to grind for small amounts of podium XP per 7 min fight
Re: Coliseum Strategy
Speaking of the TAGS for different DAYS, seems like maybe I misunderstood how there were gonna be implemented.
(1) ASSUMPTION (based on Kabam recommending holding off on Champs with lower # of Tags on Day-1, because that champ may have more of their tags used in later days).
To me that said that Tags for Podium 1-3 would ALWAYS be the DAY-1 Tags, and Podium 4 would be Day-2 Tags, etc, and Podium 5 would be Day-3 Tags.
But turns out that you can do your Podium 1-3 fights over using a DIFFERENT CHAMP, and then that fight/score will be based on the “then day's” NEW TAGS (ie, Day 2 or 3, depending which day you are doing the new champ's fight even on those earlier podiums).
(2) And so does it seem that ONLY if you are replaying an earlier Podium with your EXISTING TOP SCORE Champ again on that Podium, will they still be based on that EARLIER DAYS TAGS ???
Just seems an odd way to design that.
And so if you delayed all your fights until final day, you are unable to benefit from any fights using the earlier days Tags. Are you would have a much lesser pool to choose from (overall) because all 5 podiums you'd have the same Tags from which to pick champs with.
Re: Coliseum - Kabamed
it’s just a really dumb game mode. “How can we get them to NEVER put the phone down?”….”I know!”
I already don’t have to do EQ since the new changes I haven’t touched it and never will. Side quest are hit or miss. I can get away with not playing them most months. What keeps me coming back…the addiction they created🤪
Re: Coliseum - Kabamed
You can, if you want to get credit for a single medium or light attack. But that's not enormously helpful, really.
Putting a champ with such ridiculously long SP2 in a time-limited fight, with additional quite short active timers within the fight was a deliberate choice, calculated to frustrate players.
Now, challenging and frustrating the players is fine, if it's a "Summer of Pain"-type of Everest event: the clue is in the name.
But putting a really tedious, grindy, frustrating defender in the brand new game mode that you want people to be enthusiastic about?
That seems like less of a good idea...

Poor form, @A_Fungi

Damn, what a **** that guy
Coliseum - Kabamed
1. Adam Warlock might be the most annoying champ to fight against on a timer. Power gain, long annoying special 2, pod
2. Too Passive: Not only is Adam Warlock annoying with power gain/special2, but the AI has been adjusted to be sooooo Passive, worst part of this game has always been baiting specials. If he doesn't throw sp1 not much you can do about it. Shouldn't need champs like DShe SHulk, Pavitr to get the AI to throw a Sp1.
3. To go with the passive AI, they conveniently introduced Pavitr Prabhakar- who you can buy right now - that has similar taunt ability
4. Coliseum XP is a long grind. What should have been maybe 3 fights per podium (best score counts) turned into 100+ fights for small XP. The idea being you spend units to upgrade the podium faster
Welcome to more complaints, but similar to Battlegrounds, Arena, monthly EQ, AQ, this game mode is repetitive and boring. Day 2 and I'm already bored/don't want to play anymore.

Last year's banquet may be the worst but this year's will be the best for sure.
