I don't have a problem with Kabam doing CCP-specific Twitch drops, but it would help immensely if they pinned a post with all of the CCP member's Twitch channels. The CCP members that I actually follow don't do Twitch streams (to my knowledge), and the bigger streamers that I know do Twitch streams (like Vega and KT1) tend to bounce in and out of the CCP.

What I'm trying to say is, it's kinda hard to know who streams what and where and if they're in the CCP to begin with. Especially if you (like me) aren't really into Twitch to begin with. I watch Kabam's monthly livestreams there and that's about it. I'm open to the idea of watching some CCP stuff there, but please give me some clear directions so that I know which channels to look out for.

They never said it was a buff. Kabam is well aware that the previous Magik was better. That is why she was changed, she was too broken to be released as a 7* with that level of power control.

She's great as a new champion, but not great as Magik. If that makes any sense

First, the intent when the three currencies announced get merged into Essentia (Glory, Incursion Artifacts, Battleground tokens) is for overall pricing in the Essentia store to be about as good or better as those stores. In general I don't expect the Essentia store to be a lot better than the Glory, Battlegrounds, or Incursions stores, but I also do not expect it to be worse in any way (in particular because of the other factors below).

Second, those older currencies are not going to be auto converted into Essentia. If you have Glory, Artifacts, or BG tokens you will have to manually convert them into Essentia using some conversion store. There will be a transition period where the old stores and the new Essentia store will exist, since the different currencies aren't immediately going away. So you should be able to choose which store to use, for at least a little while.

Third, as was mentioned in the last livestream, the Essentia store does not have escalating costs. In other words, if something costs 100 Essentia for the first one, it will cost 100 Essentia for the second one and the third one, up to the purchase cap. This means the Essentia store is likely to be superior to the Glory store, since the Glory store has escalating costs.

I think if anything, Glory is the one currency I would not be spending down to zero ahead of the launch of Essentia. Of the three currencies being merged into Essentia, Glory is the currency most likely to be best converted to Essentia rather than spent in the actual Glory store.

Of course, I cannot specifically say what the net conversions and store prices will be for things before the Essentia store launches. I can only say this seems to be the most likely result of the launch when it comes to Glory,
