Best Of

OP addresses it in a few different points, but the general shift toward RPG mechanics over the past couple of years has really drained a lot of the fun for me.

RPG counters, matchups, matchup spreads, target matchups, blah blah blah.

Point 3: Don’t forget the absolute dogsh*t that was rhino’s “buff”

Whether there is any correlation between them being here vs the new team, what we can say undeniably is that the game was better in nearly every way a year ago compared to today, and I fear for what it might be like a year from now.

Great write-up & I'm right there with you. There's been a obvious shift in the way both the game & the people in charge present themselves. If I was to add on, I'd first mention the change to "prestige 30." What happened to playing & ranking your favorite champs. I'm well aware that's still possible, yet putting a tiered reward thresholds to it, has forced a lot of summoners to rethink their rankups. Second, the summoner choice champs has been mediocre at best. It seems as kabam is so afraid of making another Herc, well pretty sure I need not explain. I almost think sometimes Herc was the mistake that led to this chosen path. I still enjoy playing the game, but I've definitely slowed down my in-game play time..

Well Porky is just an all around cool champ. When the poppers stack up, it's kinda fun to sit back and watch the defender detonate and go boom lol.

But to answer your question, my top r4's and r3's consist of 22 ladies, and 11 fellas, so 2:1 ratio.

The r4 ladies are:

1. CMM (of course)
2. Ironheart
3. Jean Grey
4. Photon
5. "Spider-Ma'am"
6. Misty Knight

R3

1. Chee
2. Spiral
3. Viv
4. Dazzler
5. Kush
6. Shuri
7. Shathra
8. Jabari Panther
9. Domino
10. A. Chavez
11. Dust
12. Phoenix
13. Scream
14. Deathless SheHulk
15. Enchantress
16. OG Storm

R4 fellas

1. Spider Ham

R3 Fellas are the usual suspects:

1. Serpent
2. Onslaught
3. Bullseye

and then

4. Nefaria

5. Bishop

6. Red Skull

7. OG Black Panther

8. Colossus

9. Hyp

10. Joe Fixit (ranked him for 9.2 Lotan fight)

WHEN.…EVER rng decides to stop being an ahole and give me Okoye 🙄, she's going to r4 immediately. I have "Sunshine" Dean too, so she'll be going up soon.

Additionally, here are some R2 fellas I'm considering for r3:

1. Terrax

2. Shocker

R1 for same consideration:

1. Wiccan

2. Zemo

3. Nova

4. Bastion

5. Juggs

6. Nick Fury (once awakened.

I'm also considering Galan, but not sure about him yet.

@Java_Junkie

Kabam - please just listen to your player base on this proposed nerf. It is unnecessary and you haven't properly thought this through. There are counter proposals that are being proposed (just look at any of the recent posts from content creators like KT1, Seitan, Vega etc. Do the right thing please.

This doesn’t make any sense at all. They’re not going to nerf her, it’s probably just a joke. If it’s not, then they have an ulterior motive, which means they’re full of lies and hypocrisy. It also clearly shows that they only care about their own interests, the players’ pockets not the players themselves. Or maybe they’re just bad at their jobs. Either way, it’s troubling.

So, she’s too much of a defender than intended. Any thinking, logical person would ask: How do we fix her without hurting her offensive value?
Ensnare has a 30% chance for the attacker’s abilities to fail and prevents evade. Let’s remove that. But wait, that also affects her on attack, where it’s a huge benefit.

Is this the only option? She has no other annoying defensive abilities? What about the Fumble debuff? That one disables Dexterity during specials, and it doesn’t do anything on attack. Players also hate when defenders tamper with their masteries.

Kabam: No, let’s piss them off more. Remove Ensnare instead.

That said, Kabam mentioned toning down defenders after the Serpent outrage. Since then, we’ve had champions like Yelena, Jean, Dark Phoenix, High Evolutionary, etc. So why Spider-Woman? Does this mean we should expect nerfs for the likes of Dark Phoenix and High Evolutionary too?

This is so dumbfounding that it feels like either a prank or an experiment to test the unity level of the player base or our pushback.

I have changed my rating to 1 star for kabam...in playstore..

They are treating us like nothing...not going to spend any more for dual track and elders...keep ur champs in ur hand...
