**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.
There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.

Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

Apocalypse is a dud

    Many people have said the same about some of the best champs. As many have stated. Don’t forget that Kabam is allowed to make defenders as well, and Apocalypse looks like a beast on defense. And I believe he applies to stubborn. Which means if he has 4 charges, and you take that blocked hit to remove the indestructible, unless it’s a parry, bam, stunned.

    He is a very good champ. Its just that he's old. If he ever gets an update, he'll be insane. Not that he needs one, but I think people would appreciate him if he was easy to use.


    Old does not mean bad.
    Many often forget this in this community.
    Voodoo is still one my fav champs.

    Just sitting on Miike's post really quick...

    Do you know who's gotten an incredible resurgence in recent weeks?

    Red Hulk.

    Do you know how long it's been since he was released?

    Three YEARS.

    Granted, he went through a slight rework last year, but even THEN he was nothing more than a Domino trinity piece for a long time.

    Now he's the lane 9 specialist and Man-Thing killer.

    Every champ can be good in time. Apoc has a lot of the pieces needed for him to be good now and later. Just need the pieces to fall his way.

    Apocalypse has voids ability to put debuffs on opponent except they never end..high ranked apoc can get 700 plus per tick ....forever...not to mention all the utility and synergies

    But there is absolutely no doubt, apocalypse will be by far the strongest and most annoying AW final boss ever unless everyone brings full teams of robots which is not gonna happen.

    And please do not make apocalypse the final boss of ANY AQ season

    He has his counters so even if he is made the final boss just bring a good counter

    If he starts at 3 charges cause he defends the final boss node you only have 1 chance while using a non-robot champ to get him down before his block break activates for every fight after that. The only way i know to not do that is to use robot and there aren't too many choices for good robots(vision, warlock, nebula, maybe darkhawk). Not to mention he is practically stun immune since he starts at 3 charges as final boss so there is really little room for error. And If he gets to 4 charges, stun immune + block break on light attack is going to be super difficult to deal with. Ghost might work sure, but we'll have to see.

    Then simply just don't block.
    Intercept, backdrafts they exist too.
    Just play around him and don't block.
    Ghost should make light work of him.

    Remember when everybody thought Corvus Glaive was going to be useless? Or when everybody hated Ghost? Did you know that Dr Voodoo was one of the worst received Champions ever? Doctor Octopus didn't get his time in the sun until much later than his release.

    Give it time, and remember that there's a lot more to Champions than just their big yellow numbers.

    Can we get to see appoclips in the next 6* featured crystel.....I am diying to get that guy...I didn't pull a single 6* yet I am collecting the 6* shards and I think I am near to open a basic 6* it's 9300 shards I am not much intrested to pull soo much god tire champ just wanted to pull 1 6* champ which could be worthy and help me in progression that's why I wanted to open featured crystel...but it takes soo much shards so plz this time introduce good and worthy 6* champion in featured crystel it's better to pull one then two trash champs...

    Human torch was also received not really well

    The reaction on corvus lasted mybe a day or two

    I just imagine fighting apoc on a stubborn aw node
    There will be tons of slipups where he stuns u to oblivion and u can just sitback and stare

    Put him on encroaching stun specials cost 50% power and stupefy. Then watch the fun. Or put him on heavy attack arent interrupted :)
    He can just be parried on those nodes and would be useless
