Yes. Black Panther OG is getting buffed. It's confirmed.

Lvernon15

Black panther and Odin are confirmed for next month

Hood?

Twanger

I pulled 6* OG Black Panther twice in a row so this buff pleases me. I hope to god theres

- enhanced bleeds & cruelty
- some form of regen? Ability to dash back and hold block and it drains the attackers power to regen.
- bleed immunity?

It should be bleed king

Hood?

There hasn’t been any word on Hood unfortunately. I doubt we’ll see him yet as they probably put him to the end of the line until they get the buffs they’re currently working on done.

GinjabredMonsta

theyprolly need tosort out the persistent charges bug first

The bug fix team and the champion design team are not necessarily the same team. Doing one does not preclude doing the other.

I really hope Black Panther doesn't turn out like DDHK.

I'm just disappointed that Odin needed a buff. I'm really hoping that they don't count it towards May's buffs and make it an extra but it's unlikely. If only Odin was properly tested and released, that buff would have been another champ who really needs it. Not some new addition.

I think they said it won’t count but i could be misremembering

If that's true, then it would be great.

It won't count - remember next month's overhauls are part of the old cadence and they would have started working on them ages ago.
If Kabam are working with integrity they will release both overhauls as well as Odin's tune-up.
If Kabam are working without integrity then any delay that could have been caused by the second overhaul will be covered up with Odin's tune-up.
Time will tell, but you have the right to expect two overhauls and a tune-up next month.

No you absolutely don't have that right. The two overhauls were planned for April, and they were HtD and Panther. There is no reason to believe they'd have two Overhauls ready next month

The only thing we know is there'll be new animations and it rewards agressive gameplay.

Regarding the other Buffs for May, we know that Odin is getting a numbers bump and no idea who's going to be the third or if there's an even be a fourth.

As for people asking about the Hood, Miike had previously posted on another thread that they had no known timeline for when Hood 3.0 would be released. But as others have pointed out, it's probably going to be a quite a while if they already have a list of who they're working on.

I don't think you understand the meaning of the word integrity and "right to expect".

Nah, I mean in the sense that they don't screw up Black Panther like they did in the DDHK overhaul. Unless you were joking lol

"In order to give each Champion the most meaningful buff as possible, we’re going to be switching to a 3 update per month schedule, which will include 1 Overhaul, and 2 Moderate/Value Only updates."

No you're right. We shouldn't expect 2 overhauls next month. We should expect 1 overhaul, 2 value only updated as well as Odin's tune-up.

I don't think you understand the meaning of the word integrity and "right to expect".

Maybe not. But shouldn't you be busy giving people unwarranted parenting advice?
;D

At this point they could really just stop releasing 2 new champs for a month and do black panther classic level reworks for some really old champs, like those with recycled special attack and heavy attack animations (OG iron man, black bolt, classic cap, the 2 ms marvels, cyclops, iron fist.. the list goes on) maybe even spice up the in game model, at that point they can be counted as "new champs"

One of the money makers for the game is the new champ crystals on the unit store. It would make something extraordinary for them to not release 2 champs every month. Moreover the teams they work on new champs and reworks will be different. The team that resolves bugs will be different. If it becomes serious enough they may allocate more resources for bugs, otherwise we will have 2 new champs as scheduled while the other teams work on those bugs and reworks.
