Get rid of defensive tactics, it benefits no one. The "feedback that you are always reading and paying attention to" has been loud and clear on this issue. No one likes it, remove it from the game.
What a mockery for average players really Master 1 40k 6* shards Gold1 2.5k 6* shards
Are we exist in game???
Rewards quantum is a different discussion but you can't compare Masters top spot to Gold 1. In order to have a perfect season in Master, people spend about on average 5k+ units on potions and boosts. In order to have a perfect season in Gold 1, you just need to know your basic skills.
Pretty true. But...
...if the plan is new treats for the lowest end Summoners (to get them playing AW) and better treats for the upmost Summoners (to encourage their playing and spending on AW), this doesn’t bode well as a direction for the rest of the announcements for a large number of players.
Feels like we’ve seen this one before. Hope I am wrong.
Literally all they had to do was get rid of defensive tactics, extend attack timer and give a generous buff to rewards for ALL levels not just those that are in the top tier. That's all most of us wanted and they couldn't even give 2 out of 3 to 90% of the players.
For the time commitment and locking my champs up in war for a month, I’m almost better placed to just join an AQ focussed alliance and just skip war completely.
The changes to war mechanics seem arbitrary but considerate, the 5 minute timer is cool but I can’t remember the last time I timed out in war and it fed into the tactics of picking a boss killer for that particular boss. The rewards changes are pitiful. I’m in a p4 alliance and we’re seeing such a small change to rewards given the speed the game is advancing. 2% t5cc is horrible, 4 years to get a t5cc if you pull the same class each season 😂.
I’m hoping this is one of those moments that we are heard and some significant changes are made. I WANT to play war, but I’m hardly motivated for 1.5 five star (which are a dime a dozen nowadays) and half a 6 star (joe fixit anyone?).
Personally I hope all the spenders boycott. This is an obvious cash grab designed as a player benefit. That’s why there was no significant increase in rewards for plat 4 and below. Kabam wants to lock the spenders into the upper tiers so they can spend spend spend for those t5CC. The pay wall starts at plat3 now people

I should know better than to get my hopes up by now. This is truly disappointing and why I am in my own alliance with my 2 accounts. I get 1750 glory per week running Map 2 and don’t have to worry about the time suck and disappointing rewards of AW.
The new meta will be 100% Stubborn. And it will be a clown fiesta like with Flow. This node is way overpowered and makes the 2 best champs almost useless (Quake and Ghost)
You will not be allowed to dex a Special or you will need to block 3 hits to be able to do damage again. This is unfun and Flow 2.0
This is so bad, I went right past being mad to just laughing. Basically if you’re not a platinum alliance, you might as well not do war. A month of daily inconvenience to get the same trash. Go back and try again.
I wouldn't go that far, but this chart shows a definite imbalance.
I disagree, it is perfectly balanced like all things should be.
Um....no. I get that you were ribbing, but I'm still going to point out that the only real changes were made around Plat and up, and that doesn't do anything for anyone lower. The problem is, in comparison, they were already significantly greater than the rest. So not perfectly balanced at all. I mean, I get it. The top made a stink and now they're catering to them. Unfortunately, if the rest are neglected, people will lose interest because when there's an apparent siding like that, people will be demotivated. Why bother? If you're not in the same few Allies and you never will be, you won't get significant enough Rewards to progress. I'm all for increasing, as long as it's done with all levels in mind. Pander too much, and you may just find the majority dwindling.
I mean if GW is disagreeing with kabam you know they really messed up
Dear Kabam , Really disappointed with the changes you made. You broke my heart for keeping such high expectations. Never would I ever believe you again. Humble MCOC player.
For the stubborn tactic, a simple way to reign it back a bit. Remove dodged as one of its activators. It's ok to leave miss and evade as stubborn activators as it is, but remove dodged so that our dexterities do not trigger stubborn as well.
Why such a HYPE for nothing I’m a 5 year experienced player and did almost every content This time it’s a complete let down from kabam. Not falling again in your false hopes
I would like at this time to point out that part do the road map to the road map of road maps implied communication, aw announcement number 1 has been out for a bit, number 2 just dropped. Plenty of feedback, not much communication.
Another thing I have to say is that shouldn't the solo event currently for cavalier and uncollected players be for conquerer players instead? 1k 5* shards after a whole month is like a 2016 reward lol, it's something conquerer players need. Uncollected and cavalier players should have a whole other solo event with way better rewards. 3 star crystals really aren't doing anything for us lol.
As a member of a Gold 2 Alliance, I hate that they made zero changes to the crystal shards. I mean war is supposed to be a place to earn them. We already get rankup materials from AQ. It was better if you didn't change anything.
Very disappointed by the evolution of the rewards for plat 4 and under. How can you give 100% 6shards increase for master and something like 20% increase 6* shards for plat4 ? Your system allow rich players to get even richer compared to the other ones. People were complaining about BS nodes like flow or burn out on the highest tiers. You create worse (stubborn) nodes and more inequalities/pressure. I hope the upcoming roadmap for quest is at least smartly designed

Hang on there, don't say that it's better to not change the rewards haha. Adding some rewards is always better than nothing, but for AW they should have upped the shards rather than the catalysts. Not to mention that with the increased difficulty of AW, people would be even angrier if the rewards didn't change at all.
Wow, check out that balance: Plat4 gets +1000 6* shards Plat4 gets +4000 6* shards . . . Master 1 gets +20 000 6* shards I guess only the top 300 alliance that gives the revenue
Is there an upper limit for Stubborn? It's says 1/2/3 whenever you evade/miss/dodge, but where does it cap?
The max is 3 indestructible charges for the defender I believe.
At which point you need to be hit / take a block damage before you can damage 'em. Imagine having to dex the specials then instead of punishing the defender, u need to take a hit first.

Combine that with the new Horrible nodes. We’re in for an AMAZInG!!!!!!!!!!!! Season 19.
Trash
Harder nodes, worst tactics, barely better rewards. Time to quit AW altogether for me.
