Re: Gladiator and Venom possible bugs…
Against Peni and Red Skull, both Venom and Gladiator take damage from the power drain when hitting into RS’s block and getting auto blocked by Peni.If red skull has armor its not power drain damage its direct damage and peni its the power burn also
Anyone else noticed this?

Sentry Attack Rating Ability Not Working
Sentry has an ability that increases his attack rating for any additional critical damage rating increases, up to 100% of his attack rating.
I don’t think this is working at all but maybe I’m missing something.
I tested it by taking him into ROL, mine is r2 7*.
All tests are with 0 debuffs and 0 Warp Charges, so this is Base Sentry.
These hits are also non critical attacks.
First fight his medium damage was 1418 and light attack was 909.
Then I changed his stat focus to critical damage rating, according to his ability mentioned above, his attack rating should’ve increased.
Second fight his medium damage was 1418 and light attack was 909.
Lastly I kept his stat focus the same (critical damage rating) and then built a synergy team to boost his critical damage rating further (Wolverine and both cyclops).
Third fight his medium damage was 1418 and light attack was 909.
So as far as I can see, this ability does not work. His attack never increased or changed at all when his critical damage rating was increased. Am I missing something or is this a bug?

Re: Serpentless Worthy Gods and Cul’s Worthy Run
Great work and nice writeup OP 
I also completed this recently, but I did have 7* r3 Serpent with me. I only used him vs. Titania and Omega Sentinel though. My team was:
6* r5 ascended Serp - Titania (first ~50%)
7* r3 Serp - Titania & Omega Sentinel (1 revive)
6* r5 ascended Abs - Aarkus (1 revive)
7* r2 Titania - Wiccan (first 20%)
7* r4 White Tiger - Air Walker (1 revive), Betsy (1 revive), Wiccan, and Psycho Man
White Tiger carried icl. Well, she is r4 tbh but her dmg is just very good and that sp2 was clutch for wiccan's sp1 regen (great way to stay topped up).

Re: Problem with Okoye's sp2
Oh, Ordeal Thanos. How is she for Ordeal? Any particular fights you like her for other than Evade?She took nightcrawler, gwen, void, fury, and thanos for me. Honestly, I brought her in solely for the evaders, but she exceeded my expectations by doing the other fights for sure. All her fights were solos, except thanos who was almost a solo, I got him down to like 8%. Pure dmg takes you very far, it turns out.
Re: Problem with Okoye's sp2
Too many hits in her combo for him imo. Unless it only counts as 1 hit for him

Re: Can Someone Give Us Exact Info on BG Matchmaking Rules?!
This is the post in question: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/393626/battlegrounds-season-28

I think one of two things are happening: the first bullet point that says “Expanded tuning within the 5 minute duration to improve matching for all GC Summoners.” is implementing point 2 in some way OR and I doubt this is the case, the people who you matched with were waiting 5+ minutes so they matched with you. Granted, that doesn’t make sense, but it would seem that matchmaking has expanded for all people and it prioritizes who’s available at that time.

Unexpected counter to Serpent in BG
Hi all! Today I met this guy in BG who seems defeated Serpent with iDoom with ease and cheese. He did not KOd him, but it seems he took him to immortality with 100% health and then paused the fight.
Is it a legal fight?
I tried fighting with my Serpent in practice mode and I could not do the same in 5 tries.
The first and foremost is that iDoom does not burn any energy from Serpent. I see critical energy burn messages, but nothing is done with energy.
So, it means, that IDoom energy control is impossible. Then, I do not understand how is it possible to do this fight so perfectly.
If somebody can explain and make a showcase, I would certainly appreciate it.

Re: Unexpected counter to Serpent in BG
It is against forum rules to share a screenshot with a user's name and essentially call them out for cheating. You should hide their usernameI deleted screenshot from original message. Did not have enough time to upload corrected one. So, adding it here.

I did not call him a cheater, read my topic message, there is no such thing.
Re: Can Someone Give Us Exact Info on BG Matchmaking Rules?!
I would like to see why some people would disagree. Not to open up an bad arguments but to see how others think too so we can have good results for all.My initial guess is the disagree people who just disagree, and then the people who don't like Beroman.
