What kind of alliance kicks someone for not being able to take down a fight

Not to mention all those content creator crystal conspiracies.

I need to start narrating these posts in videos. My SBCs are a whole lot less jubilant.

We’ve had an incredible amount of rankup materials now, this is pretty amazing for FTP players that saved up effectively, and it’s good to see the gap in BGs narrow a bit. I was at a full roster of R4s ages ago and would rarely see others with the same, but now it seems pretty common. I’ll be at 45 R4s (at least) after this event.

Rankups lose their value over time though. I’d really really like to see a trophy champion selector in the milestones. Or even better, a selector letting us choose between the limited selector pool and the rare champ selector pool. Feels a bit greedy to even ask after all we’ve had so far.

Best banquet I can remember. Super fair on grinders and sufficiently rewarding for spenders. Nice work Kabam.

I'll be crazy pissed if they release Dark Phoenix. She should stay incredibly hard to get.

If I'm being honest, I think these very high milestones are only going to have a small impact on total scoring. Most of the whales are a) already committed to their scoring for the most part and b) already way past these milestones in terms of qualifying already. Logically, more milestones can only encourage people to spend money or units if they haven't reached/qualified for those milestones yet. If they have already qualified for everything and then some, what the milestones turn out to be shouldn't affect their net spending by much.

But people aren't necessarily logical and the banquet is as much about sentiment as it is about economics. If people are spending (units or money) and you see everyone around you mostly spending and mostly happy, that can encourage you to also spend more, even if you aren't necessarily getting more milestones out of it.

In broad terms, the fact people are spending more in general is likely having an impact on everyone in terms of jockeying for rank rewards. However, only a tiny percentage of the players read posts like this or even watch prediction videos. So my guess is that while individual people might decide to open more crystals if they think they are falling behind in rank, most people are probably just going to spend whatever they want to spend and then stop, and specifics won't affect them, but general sentiment might.

Basically, I think we are past the point where any specific anything is going to affect our scores, but the broad general feeling of people being happy with their results can have a meaningful broad impact on how the masses decide whether to buy One More Crystal or Ten.

Thor Rags is definitely not going to be in because he will be gotten through watching their livestreams.

All hes missing is his strong hand. IYKYK
