It's an All-out Mutant Celebration this August!

Summoners! August is almost here and we've got an all-out Mutant celebration planned...

Starting with the introduction of the two New Mutants and the return of the Classic "Polar Opposites" Quest, it is going to be a HUGE month filled with a lot to look forward to...

Find out everything that's happening in the Battlerealm in our look forward to August on our blog!

EDIT: For clarification, the Old Man Logan and Colossus Beta Tests are scheduled for later in August, not later in July.

Before it's asked, yes, we changed the 2015 Rank Up gem to a 2015+2016 Rank Up Gem Crystal this time!

Can I assume the global nodes will have to do with if the champion is metal or not

Can we get a heads up on possible special objectives if there are any, so we can know if we should be saving crystals for attempting to pull mutant champs?

It was leaked that warlock is going to be tech not mutant. But you're saying there will be two new mutants in the announcement chat. So is warlock going to be mutant or tech?

I see the confusion here... I think what was meant was two members of the New Mutants.

@Kabam Miike like v2 will the rewards be slightly increased for v3 or not?

I have 0 complaints. This looks awesome! I really love adding 2016 champs to the rank up gems. Nice touch Kabam.

That’s awesome! How about the previous 2015 Rank up gems? Some of us got so many of the same class and already have those champs at R4, there’s no one else to use them on.

Will those also be turned to 2015/2016? Or can we sell them or trade them for something if they won’t?

Thank you!

You'll have to wait until the actual announcement to see!

Glad to see 2016 gems this time.

Amazing! Can't wait for V3, the beta for Colossus and OML, and I'm hoping the labs are going to be cool too. Exciting month! I assume there will be some new and interesting mechanic for V3?

Man I just ranked Hyperion and Voodoo recently. I really hope I don’t get cosmic or mystic.

But don’t get me wrong, this all still sounds fantastic.

Yeah that would kinda suck... We're starting to get into some champs that are actually top tier and people have already ranked them to r4.

The point of gems was so you didnt have to use precious cats on so called bad champs

Buttehrs

Well thats one way to view them at any rate lol

Dont know if it can be answered already, but how many quests will Variant 3 have?

Yeah I understand that, but typically you want to use them on someone who's going to be at least mildly useful.

So... Deadpool was in this month’s event quest, last month (I think) we had the pools gold crystals and next month it looks like he’s the enemy? Why so much ‘pool? DP buff incoming?

They use deadpool in event quests way too much. Need to step outside their comfort zone.

True. Unless this is building up to something, (and I don’t really think it is) they need to lay off the Deadpool.

Agree that it's not likely leading up to any kind of a deadpool buff. They just use him a lot as comic relief. Would be good if they brought a little personality to the other dozens of champs in this game.

I’d be down for, say, Ant-Man as comic relief. And they should add some personality to the characters they created for this game. There are loads of great characters with great flavor in this game. They should have a chance to speak.

I get the point of the 2015 gems and now the 2016 gems. You want people to rank older champs that aren't top tier. It's not a bad thing, but there's so many gems coming and so few older champs to rank, it's actually having the opposite effect. I have several 2015 champs that I want to rank up, but I'm having to delay that in case I get a corresponding 2015 gem. If I rank them now, and get the gem later, I have no one to use it on and it will be a waste. So now instead of ranking the old champs I like, I have to focus on the newer champs and wait to see what gems will be released in the future.

I'm glad they changed the gems to 2016's but man I sure hope I don't pull a tech one. You have two options, Civil Warrior and Howard, ugh.
