Re: How rare is this guy?
He is super rare.
What most people don't know, however, is that if he is 6R5 ascended sig 200 and you place him as the defender on the final node in War, he gains a secret Indestructible Passive for the whole fight and only another immortal Iron Fist at max rank can do damage to him.
Re: Food for thought Side Quest… more of this please
Just this one. This month there are 2 side quests, each running for 2 weeks.
Does Anyone Else…
1. Long form content: I remember when Necropolis came out and with it the realm event, I had never seen the playerbase as engaged as it was when it happened and to this day Necropolis remains as my favorite piece of long form content ever created by Kabam. Epoch is also another perfect example, I’m fully aware Miike and Jax weren’t here for the final quest with Ares but they were here during most of the first quests with the milestones which I can safely say were also extremely fun even though that Abs Man was absolutely busted on release lol. The first Crucible, another example of endgame content that was praised by the entire playerbase and that I absolutely loved. Now? Well I finished Wheel of Fate yesterday and I can safely say it’s one of the worst most boring pieces of content ever created just straight up garbage.
2. Sales: we get a sale every 2-3 months these days and they’ve started to release the 6* gods from the golden era of 6* for ridiculously high prices. 7* Torch cost the same as my new iPhone lmfao during the Miike and Jax era sales were actually fair and we didn’t get nearly as many as we do these days, and whenever we did get extra ones like that garbage Cap’s Comissary Event, the rewards were so bad you didn’t even care if you missed out, the same can’t be said about sales these days where 90% of them some sort of fomo (Red Guardian, Dark Phoenix, Torch, Silver Samurai etc) and yes I am guilty of spending money to get some of them but that’s why it annoys me so much, the game never felt as p2w as it currently does.
3. Buffs: I remember when we used to get buffs quite often and they were insane (Red Skull, Red Guardian, OG Hulk, OG Iron Man, Luke, Sup. Iron Man and the biggest one of course Mr. Sinister). Now I’m aware the Glorious Guardians buffs were great but what the hell has been going with buffs lately? Patriot went from mid to mid but I can take Photon a lil better, Voodoo went from mid to usable but still not good enough, and don’t even get me started on Sabretooth and Night Thrasher cause those two somehow went from trash to premium trash like come on. The worst part is the buff cadence has slowed down massively and still the quality of the buffs continues to drop down too, why?
4. Communication: no need to go into detail on this one, we’ve been waiting for an update on Crashed’s dev diary for weeks, we’ve been waiting for an update on the comp package for weeks, and the forums have become an abandoned wasteland where everyone says whatever the **** they feel like saying.
5. The Deathless Chase: this one has it’s own title because the Deathless chase was one of the most engaging and fun events this game ever had with one of the biggest payoffs f2p players have ever seen, Deathless Thanos. But this isn’t about Thanos alone, acquiring all the pieces and doing that final Carina’s Necro challenge for the dupe took the fun factor to a whole new level. What do we get now? A team of original characters that by themselves are decent but nothing crazy, and you acquire them with money basically because we know most of us aren’t making Celestial in BGs. Bring back another Deathless chase with Kang and scrap the Eidols forever please.
6. BGs: another subject I don’t really need to get into that much detail, sure Radiance and reward updates were a huge deal but what happened to BGs being fun in general? Every BGs meta for the past few months has been a power gain one or a stun immune one. What happened to fun metas like crit me or that one dot meta with vicious where Werewolf was busted on attack?
Anyways I’m sure there’s more I could add but it feels like I’ve been typing for hours now so I’ll just stop here. I just really miss how the game used to be 1-2 years ago, I hope somebody can knock some sense into these damn devs soon before it’s too late.
Re: Battlegrounds question with a hint of rage.
It sounds like you're already in glad? So your in the zone that is literally purely competitive. If not many people are playing youll get matched with people that are higher ( but if you lose, you lose less points, and if you win, you win a lot more) to prevent having reallly long queues. (also its not even week 2 and less people in general are playing bgs so the amount of "whales" is probably more saturated than other seasons )
And at the end of the day this game is part roster building is it not? Why should you be able to get to celestial only vsing "smaller" accounts, that just removes half the game. Why play the game if the rewards you earn/pay for cant help you. why play bgs to earn radiance to get/rank more champs, if that is just gonna make you vs stronger people, that whole idea is backwards.
this is like a plat2 ally pushing for plat1, and then they shockingly vs a p1 ally (thats more stacked) and then complaining that the matchmaking is rigged and not fair.
also, roster size barely means anything, i am a ftp 6.smth mil account and i got to 100 points today, and only lost one game getting there…. did i vs some whales? ofc i did, does that mean i instantly lost? no of course not. just cause theyre whaley doesnt mean theyre good at the game, hell is usually means theyre worse, not knowing how to do more than one matchup with their shiny new champs.
Re: Battlegrounds question with a hint of rage.
No argument. This BG season has been nothing but irritating. I can’t get out of Diamond V, as I’m paired against ridiculously stacked whales. Every one of them has R4+ Serpent, Spider-Woman, Enchantress, Bullseye, Photon, Yelena, and Onslaught, and they melt my roster.

Re: Alliance Ratings are Frozen Right?!
Let's assume the position of your %tier ends at spot 100. You are at the bottom, just 1 spot higher then an alliance in lower tier.
If you match an ally on spots 90-99 you'll find yourself in your same tier.
If you match an ally on spots 100-101 you'll find yourslef at lower tier %.
vice versa when you are at the top ranks of your tier.
<b>The game counts %tier on LlVE placements.</b> For example.
When you are at the bottom. Let's say spot 99. You match someone with spot 106.
Someone else took your spot who is matched with spot 98 or 97 or 96... so on.
OR
How many other spots 80-100 alliances matched with spots 100-120. All those postions needs to be cleared for the active alliances participating wars
The tiers have fixed number of alliances in them. If 20 alliances from a above tier matched with 20 alliances from bottom tier, not all of those fight in same tier. Exactly half will fight in highe tier and half will fight in bottom tier.
Side Notes* tier is determined by alliance's war rating. War rating and tier has nothing to do with seasons ranking. War rating continues to go up and down after each war but are fixed in off season. When season ends all season points are fixed at 0, or in other words, Every season all alliances starts at 0 season points.
Re: Alliance Ratings are Frozen Right?!
Helping you understand this, as you made that super helpful thread on trash autofighter daily slop side quest. That thread did helped me.
I gave up explaining war ratings and season points to players during last season debacle.
Re: Alliance Ratings are Frozen Right?!
Yeah, so essentially as explained above.. even if rating is frozen, the tiers are dynamically calculated for each matching session (tiers are not a persistent stat)
What usually happens is that even though the tiers are recalculated every time there's a matching session, they usually remain the same as they were in previous matching.. but its not guaranteed even with a frozen rating.. especially if you are on the line
This actually happened to us last Season, we ended the previous season at t1, but near the bottom of t1.. ratings frozen.. but what happened was there must have been a couple of alliances that didn't compete in the previous season and have now come back to play the next one - they were previously not in the matching pool.. and now they are.. slightly adjusting the tier placement as they re enter the matching system even though no ones rating has changed
Re: A weird gift?
Some communication on wtf is going would be nice. Dead silent from Kabam. Getting locked out of the game is sure to piss people further from the mess they have created recently.
They better compensate us for this BS.
Expecting 6k units, 125k radiance, 2x titan nexus, 30k trophy tokens, a few random consumables, and the decision to leave spiderwomen alone.
