They did an amazing job with her.

Isophyne better watch out.

There's a new top 20 mystic.

This might have been a good detail to announce Kabam, when you announced at summoner’s fest all new champs would be ascendable…this is kind of a huge deal

In my opinion, 3 months should be the maximum for the ascension because it gives those extra blubbering boys a headstart but it keeps f2p+spenders competitive.

It's kind of hilarious that there is a thread about back issues but not about regular incursions going away permanently.

F2Ps will be able to ascend champs like Patriot and Gorr.

Whales will be able to ascend champs like Dr. Strange and Madelyne Pryor.

The only person on the forum who thinks this is cool is Kabamosaurus Rex.

Yay! I get to ascend a champ I don't and won't use. 🥳

A huge WIN for me. 😑

Bro I'm gonna have to fight ares again? I hate my life

A negative thing that impacts the Majority less than it does the Minority, is still a negative thing.

By saying you're fine waiting 1+ year (up from waiting 3 months if opening a Titan, or 9 months if opening a Basic crystal) for a non-limited version of a champion, you are in essence fine if Kabam keeps increasing the time (why not 2 years?) and costs (if 36000 units is fine, why not 50000 units?).

And that doesn't even get into the opportunity cost - the "effort" that went into buffing mid champions for a mid Base pool is effort that could have gone to other champions. The "effort" that went into designing a new ascension economy is effort that could have gone fixing parts of the current economy. Etc.

OP doesn't have an issue with ascension because he doesn't understand what's going on.

What a dummy.

You seem to be conflating two different things:

People are not freaking out about the mid Base Pool. Nobody cares about ascending these champions. People are not buying Valiant crystals to ascend these champions. People don't care about waiting 1-2 years to have an ascended Howard the Duck they will never use.

People are freaking out about the New (Valiant crystals) being locked out. You have to spend $$$ (like potentially opening 120 Grace crystals for 36,000 units) or wait 1-2 years in order to be able to ascend (likely not mid) new champions.

You are mistaken that there are no "actual good options" to ascend til 2027. There are good options right now (like Pavitr or other new champions) that can't be ascended for a long time. Ultimately that matters more for competitive players, but even for non-competitive players it doesn't feel good to have to wait that long.
