Who PREFERS Cull “Re-balanced”???

KeepinItReal

Really appreciate Kabam listening to the MCOCommunity delaying & better communicating “re-balancing” champs in future. As mainly a Free2Play ally who somewhat recently pulled a 6* Cull (Still Unawake) the lack of details was my main concern. Tbhonest, I wanted him to be “re-balanced”: IF his overall damage decreased a lil, (Still a Top Damager) but ALSO that his block/armor, survivability would increase too. That would save alot of item usage from chip damage, (parry-heavy to armor break) when running him through harder content. Curious what YOU personally preferred in regards specifically to Cull & the reasons why???

Cull should've been left alone.he was fine as he is. Tho a increase to his block proficiency wouldve been nice

In my opinion they need to rerun the crystals and arena after the changes. Many ppl didnt go for him because of his poor block proficiency. Now that it looks like they will increase it they should give everyone a fair chance at the updated champs. They should do this with all the champs they update I think.

Other Preference

We didn't know anything about how he was going to be rebalanced.
tbh the loudest voices I heard were the people who were acting like they were going to reduce Cull's damage by 99% or something...

Let’s be realistic, kabams history of ‘rebalancing’ has absolutely destroyed the champs , remember 12.0 Thor, sw, and ds were turned to the worst champs in the game until the community uproar made them rethink and tweak them way back to being half decent champs again. Like when they released Diablo so bad and a dev admitted in his original design he would have broken the game, so they tweaked him before release (into a meme tier)
They have a history of overreacting. And tbh the mention of tweaking culls surviveability only happened after the uproar at the announcement of his ‘rebalance’ it’s quite likely they just intended originally to drop his damage significantly, and if they had made him into just ‘one of the top damage dealers’ (that could mean top ten?)With how bad of a champ he is at everything else even that would have turned him into probably barely demigod tier.
I suspect they changed their tune as the community have spoken quite possibly with their wallets (I suspect new champ crystal buying has had a bit of a drop if what people say in forums is true)
It’s good they do listen to the community but just shows us we have to be a squeaky wheel. this is a 9 figure company, hate to be realistic but most corporations will walk all over customers if we let them.

now i want that OP Diablo,i cant even imagine Diablo being even half decent with his current Kit, he absolutely doesnt fit anywhere at the moment, only champ where you can make a list of what he doesnt do instead of what he does(cause that would b 1 liner stating he gains 4% regen on every sp1)

- doesnt counter evade
- doesnt control power
- doesnt do damage
- doesnt have defensive capabilities
- doesnt have large healthpool or attack
- doesnt have even above average base stats
- doesnt nulify,fate seal,stagger
- doesnt remove buffs by anyway
- doesnt drain or burn power
- doesnt give any decent synergy to anyone
- Doesnt put good enough damaging debuffs
- doesnt put more then 1 debuff(poison n very small amount)
- doesnt rampup damage or anything over multiple fights in a quest
- Doesnt have any unique ability
- doesnt counter massive health gain/regen
- doesnt do any direct damage
- Doesnt shurgg off debuffs
- Doesnt....

Yeah it kind of makes sense cos they went to all that trouble to design a really complicated and fun ramp system that if you play really well turns him from meme into meh. So I guess In the original design it was actually worth learning and doing

If you think he needs a higher block proficiency then he isn't "fine as he is".

Small decrease in damage countered by larger increase in BP.

Test champion better ... if something slips through, then balance that ...

Cull is a very simple case. His damage has no hidden interaction. You can see the potential in just 1 run of any quest. 1 single run. They still released him. Racked up all the money from crystals and now pretending that they care about balance.

I am all for balance but their initial testing needs to improve otherwise there is no silver lining to this fiasco.

The problem with this is this not a realistic answer.

Games with significantly higher resources than this one have retuning all the time. This is because no matter how many people you hire to test, the player bass will always be

1) Significantly larger
2) More dedicated to finding the best way to use a champion.

In the platform of always online, ever expanding mobile games, perfect (or close to perfect) pretesting is just not realistic.

If it’s an actual rebalance (decrease his damage, increase his block proficiency) I think it’s fine. If they just nerf his damage, not so much.

Congratulations you just defined what balancing.and nerfing is.

If you decease his dmg and increase his survivability then sure although I wish they did that before he got released. This observation is smthn you find out after an hour of playing so theres no way you can miss that. That being said I really hope kabam talks to a group of top players before each balance to see if its a good change or not.

Can you stop enflaming the cull posts by nit picking? It gets as old as all the posts themselves.

Public forum= free to comment within the ToS of the forums.

To answer you're question, no, I'll comment when I see fit just like you do/can.

The only change Cull needs is an amp up to his Block Prof, nothing else

I agree w/ya, but shared the balance i was referring to in my initial post. Small decrease in damage in exchange for increase in block/armor/survivability.

Without knowing the details of his "rebalance" it's hard to know what you'd prefer.
