Re: When Raids are starting?
Double checked in game, next update is 2 weeks (so a week into July, aka July 7)
Might make sense to do the “whole month” of Raids be tied to the actual monthly game version.

Re: When Raids are starting?
Stream Recap just said JULY.
But I imagine it might not be until July 7, because next week is still the last day in JUNE (30).
(And no need to have people reply back going “we’ll, my eastern hemisphere Timezone is already the next day”)
Might thus also correspond to next month Update (haven’t checked in game, but will that be 1st week of July, or that following week ?)

Re: When Raids are starting?
No, one more after this week and then raids. Generally 3 weeks of normal AQ in between.
Nevermind, realized you’re talking about the July every week raids thing. Hoping we get more info soon.

BALANCE UPDATE: Okoye and Gentle
Hey all,
Balance Team here again with an update on the latest round of Champions up for review, Okoye and Gentle!
You can expect comms on ARNIM ZOLA & FALCON (JOAQUIN TORRES) toward the middle of July!
Balance Team here again with an update on the latest round of Champions up for review, Okoye and Gentle!
Okoye
Our fearless representative from the Dora Milaje in Okoye was designed as a high damage Attacker, leveraging frequent access to Bleed and Shock Debuffs as her primary damage source, with a few tools to counter defensive abilities commonly used by Science opponents. In a nutshell: Inflict lots of DOT’s + build lots of Combo! So far, we’re seeing her strong damage output and open Attacker loop shine across multiple game modes, proving to be a strong attacking option into a large gauntlet of tricky Defenders in Battlegrounds and Alliance War while also being an effective option in other Quests with longer encounters. As a result, no changes incoming for Okoye.Gentle
Gentle, the Mutant from Wakanda, had a few hard-hitting Skill Champions in his sights, leveraging strong damage mitigation (Reinforce, Physical Resistance) to protect his health and the ability to create openings with Unstoppable to comfortably take down his opponents. So far, we like what we’re seeing with Gentle’s usage and matchup spread, proving to be a safe and reliable Alliance War Attacker against a group of traditionally tricky spots on the map. Gentle’s performance as a Defender is also in a healthy place, providing Battlegrounds decks with a speed bump to counter Attackers who rely on Physical Damage and Critical Hits as their primary damage source. Gentle will be staying as is!What’s Next
No changes incoming for either Champion! A reminder that Deathless Vision will be a part of Batch Updates #2. We should have more info on that Batch #2’s release with our next Balance update!You can expect comms on ARNIM ZOLA & FALCON (JOAQUIN TORRES) toward the middle of July!
BALANCE UPDATE TO ATTACKER & DEFENDER STAT FOCUS
Greetings Summoners,
Our 51.1 release contains a handful of tuning changes to the Stat Focus mechanic! The tuning breakdown can be found below with the affected stats underlined.
We envisioned the Stat Focus mechanic as an avenue for Summoners to flex their tactical skills and to have fun customizing their 7-Star Roster. While Stat Focus impacts each Champion differently depending on their kit, the mechanic offers Summoners an opportunity to adjust and enhance the performance of their 7-Star Champions according to each Champion's weaknesses and strengths, personal playstyle preferences, and in some cases, incoming opponents. On the other hand, we don’t want Stat Focus selections to be so impactful that it changes the identity of a matchup (i.e. a Stat Focus selection shouldn’t allow a Champion to completely neutralize an opponent’s threat).
7-Star Champions and Stat Focus has been live for just over 2 years now, and after evaluating its usage and performance since release, we’re making tuning changes to a few of the Stats to move the mechanic closer to our intended impact of supporting more diverse choices.

Re: What's your thoughts on The Leader?
Hey everyone,Pulled him as a 7*. I'd like to know what his optimal way to use him is, because I just don't understand how to use him. He's a bit slow with whatever I was doing. He's also a bit risky
Do we have any experts on the Leader here? I've been hyped for his arrival since he was teased but now that I landed a 7 star, I find his debuffs... somewhat lacking.
According to his spotlight, the Leader has one of the best heal/power reversal abilities in the game but whenever I fight against champs like Hulkling or Jabari Panther (Act 9.1.2 - final boss), his reversal feels nonexistent.
*in case you're wondering why I chose to use him against Jabari Panther in 9.1.2, it's because of his severe debuffs. I was hoping to power drain her using a 3 hit light combo and SP2 but barely made a difference.
Does anyone know if he's working properly or if perhaps I'm not using him correctly? I know his SP1 is for spectres (healing) and his SP2 is power dissolve (wither debuffs). You stack debuffs using a 3 hit light ending combo to stack them up (each debuff has a potency of 20%)
Insight into his gameplay would be appreciated. 👍
