Summoners, due to a technical issue, this week's series of Alliance Quests will be cancelled at 4pm PT. There will not be any Rewards for this series. The next series of Alliance Quests will start on April 18 at 12pm PT. We will be assessing the impact on Alliances and compensating accordingly, as well as returning Alliance Tickets.

New AW Tactic is just out & Kabam already overlooked this....

If you look in game (not in forum post) the AW Attacker tactic says that if you have 2 or more DOTs on the opponent, they are passively heal blocked.

KillMonger, however, has only 1 bleed at any given time for the vast majority of the fight. YES he does get those 50 or 15+ stacks of bleeds but thats once per fight after around a combo of at least 75 (with average RNG) for only 6-8sec. Im not sure whats the point of adding this champion as part of AW attacker Regen tactic when his DOTs are extremely impractical right off the bat.

    That description of KM on attack for war made me maybe rank up my 6* one day for it. Haha. Not impractical when you have 5 min. 🤷‍♂️ Maybe it’s niche but not impractical.

    Its not impossible but impractical when you can only power control and/or heal block once per fight for 8sec max. All other champions on that list can virtually have 100% uptime. That was the point.

    Oh no, I understood your point. It’s just pointless. You see, people complain about how restrictive kabam makes content for champions especially because of rng collecting method. (Maybe you didn’t hear about this) Not everyone has every champion. 🤷‍♂️ It’s a crazy thought that maybe, just maybe kabam is putting in a decent size list so people could optimize their rosters to the changes without it being extremely restrictive.

    I don’t know mate, it’s not out of the realm of possibilities. So why not? Why do you have to have a problem with it? Legitimately asking, not why his bleed/heal block would only work once in a fight. Rather why do you have a problem with kabam making an extensive list of champions to use?

    Maybe an oversight.

    Or maybe they are going to give him the moon knight treatment and he will be able to stack bleeds in the near future... who knows.

    Why not? Well because:

    1. Its impractical to have an almost 50% uptime on that, let alone 90%
    2. There are lots of other underutilized champions such as X23 or Doc Voodoo that people have at 5/65 but are far from being meta champions
    3. The pool of such champions selected for AW Regen Attacker is limited

    Why not do something that is useful and sure-shot instead of revamping AW defense tactics a million times and not achieving the results they wanted

    It would be cool for a minor buff to KM to allow him to stack up to 5 bleeds. That way you could get to the special 3 quicker I’m a fight and actually use it in more content. His damage isn’t crazy either so it would be a helpful boost to his DPS.

    Killmonger suffers from low damage, allowing stacking bleeds would be an easy quick adjustment solving the OP’s aw tactic concern and KM’s low damage.

    Done. Solved.

    You've identified a counter to it.

    That's not always going to be a God Tier counter.

    Don't do that. Don't give me hope

    It’s not going to happen, but if they let Killmonger stack bleeds, I’m going to have a party.

    Alone, because lockdown, but it shall be a party nonetheless!

    Its not even a viable counter and 90% impractical since it only works once per fight after a combo of roughly 75 for only 8sec. Is that a counter to you where opponents like sabretooth would gain power everytime they are struck? Please tell me you play this game
