Best Of

We don't have many characters left to guess, most of them are already known.

January Gentle/Okoye
February Joaquin Torres/Arnim Zola
March Jean Grey/Bastion
April Lumatrix/Spider-Woman
May Yelena Belova/Cyclops
June Nico Minoru/Carolina Dean
July Supreme Evolutionist/
August Solvarch/
September Mr. Knight/
October
November
December Aidol cosmic


I think that in July we will get the Blue Miracle, based on their picture with the silhouette of the champion in a raincoat, and we will not get anyone for the film about F4. In August, we know that the second champion must be a mutant, and we know that this character must have a beige or ivory element somewhere, some kind of item or item of clothing. Here, I'm choosing between two characters, Mystic and Marrow, who have matching bone elements.
The second champion in September is likely to be science, and it should be someone diametrically opposed to Mr. Knight. let's say, for example, RSH.

October is traditionally the Halloween champions, but since I think neither the Lizard nor the Hobgoblin and the next symbiote will be released this year, maybe it could be someone unexpected. I'm still going to leave out the Nightmare from last time and add someone from the Marvel zombie line to it. And I'm not taking on the character's class yet, maybe it's someone from outer space.

January to June are clear as those have been given to us.
As for July I agree with the High Evolutionary coming as it is no coincidence he was shown and nothing much was said. With that said I believe the High Evolutionary could come as science or tech. With that said I believe the Maker would make a nice pairing. Especially with Nobody's Perfect and both champions could be either Science or Tech.

July: High Evolutionary, The Maker

As for August with our next Eidol coming, that leaves us a mutant and most likely a mutant hero. Not only this, but a mutant which in some way has the color beige. I've seen some say Marrow which could work as she was a summoner's choice champion from 2023 so possibility.

August Solvarch(Tech eidol)/ Marrow

Without a class known it is tough, but still looking over other options in light of who we have gotten, including the curveballs.

September Mr. Knight/

I know people disagree with me, but I'm hopeful that Lizard is coming and feel Hobgoblin could work with him. There could be a rival with Hobgoblin and Green Goblin where Hobgoblin causes havoc by releasing the Lizard. I'm open to other good options such as some have note a synergy with Nico which could point to a character like Dracula which would certainly work especially with October and the theme of the champions released during the month.

October: Lizard, Hobgoblin

November - This one is tough, but perhaps we could get Morgan Le Fay or Wonderman?

December - Cosmic Eidol

Moon knight rework for September as well?

The real issue is they have ramped up the frequency (and cost but that's only a factor for moderate spenders) of these chase champs which imbalances the game. Yes spenders (and I spend though I have ramped it down) should be ahead but the gap was more reasonable before. With several chase champs every couple months, and an event almost monthly it's becoming a gaping chasm.

What it is is exhausting.

If the intent is to burn all but the whaliest Summoners out on chasing champs, then I think it’s working.

Also: The addition of new champs no one asked for (Eidols) as chase champs coupled with the glacial cadence for champ evaluation and buff feels like a significant misstep.

Dr. Zola

Its been debated before, but I still think that the next Titan cadence (rotate every 3 months as opposed to 2 months) also increases FOMO and creates an extra gap (spenders have additional month advantage of having a champion they got from the Titan, and 9 months vs 6 months from Basic).

While I understand the reason (running out of old champions*), and understand that 5/6 new champions is better odds than 4/6 new champions, it does also increase the gap (spenders can spend to get more Titans and so can get and dupe more relevant champions before non-spenders have the access).

*And now, we can see that the "running out of old champions" wasn't specifically about not having enough old champions to add to the Titan, but rather that Kabam wanted to reserve these old champions for chase/paywalls.
