**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.

Shang Chi Infinite Combo

    If Kabam changes this they're gonna have to roll out a lot of compensation, which I doubt they want to do. All those players scoring 125 million-plus, along with the many who didn't make the cut, spent a ton of units trying to get a champ with the ability description as it is right now. Also there were featured cavs and the early access bundle that players bought, based on the accurately described abilities.

    They wont need to send out comp because hes still gonna do what hes suppose to do ramp up slow cleanse unblockable and stun via his way of combo just his stun lock that will be changed so most likely gonna be his sp1 wont trigger the effect why would that need comp its not like his whole thing is being changed and is being redone

    Just imagine Quake being release today, people posting she can win fights without touching the opponent asking to change her. He does what his abilities enable him to do

    Quake requires skill and concentration, one mistake and you're toast. Shang Chi can infinitely stun lock while you play with one hand and drink a cup of coffee with the other. It's not even close to being the same thing.
    I don't deny that, I just wonder how many post would have been created asking about this unfair hability in the mind of many people

    If they change something, they add something. Like they did with odin.

    Infinite combos are game breakers.
    Infinite combos that are allowed to stay? Those are called game killers.

    There is zero chance this stays in the game IMO.
    Just don't touch his kit!

    I recall someone saying that it used to be the case that you couldn't dex until an animation was over, and that was changed at some point, which opened the door for Quake to be played this way.

    I heard this very recently

    Really hope the nerf is to his sp1 and not his core kit. Awesome find but @Kabam please please please just nerf the sp1.

    You do know @kabam is banned right?
  • ChikelChikel Posts: 2,056 ★★★★

    Don't know if it's intentional or bugged but this rotation is broken af. Kabam really needs to sort it out if it's bugged or not as this rotation is game breaking.

    (Shang chi is able to stun lock the opponent for the whole fight )

    Just an advice: If you are on android 10, check your screen recorder settings, there is an option to record internal audio only. My mum was giving me weird looks.

    How is it abuse when you are using the abilities exactly as described in the text?

    Is using Torch's pre-fight to melt mystics a cheat code that should be nerfed? What about Storm as a Horseman. Prof X with a mutant power boost? Cosmic Ghost Rider, Ghost, Quake -- all of these champs have abilities that make them crush content.

    My advice: try to have some fun with this game and don't take things so seriously. If some players beat The Abyss because they used Shang-chi, then good for them. It won't change a thing about you, your roster, or your progression.

    It's an abuse based on how this game has been designed till now. Nobody is saying the players are exploiting a bug. The champ is working perfectly normal according to the abilities.

    The issue is that it is too OP. Remember, this is a game that had to nerf a champ because she could chain a heavy from a 5 hit combo. And nerfed a champ because it could chain heavy in the corner
    FWIW, that was an unintended interaction not part of SH's abilities.
    This is an unintended interaction that is part of his abilities. lol
    On a serious note, we have had stuff like this. Remember Silver centurion infinite combo chain last month, remember Odin pre-fight stacking? or an even older one. Remember when they decided to change Domino's ability instead of making her work according to her description when they found that if they did fix her, she would be broken?

    The point is not if someone else is finishing content with much less resource that I used, that happens all the time. What it will do is create a divide. Do you have Shang-Chi? You won the game. You don't? Ok sweat it out.

    The difference between all the others you mentioned and that every other champ either need practice or are OP in a particular scenario. Stun lock is a cheat code which should not exist in the game.
    Agree.

    So the arena started for him and still no word on changes.....
    If he's not changed I see a lot of rage quitting in war and regular quest when he's put as boss.

    The difference is, the skill level required.

    Easy fix to Shang. Just force him to rotate through all combos before the heavy can reset them.

    Well then when does a champ become "too OP"? I watch plenty of YTers use Quake to do nothing more than wiggle around for two minutes until the fight is over.
    Quake has counters. True strike, passive power gain(mostly) easily counters her. Also, have you played Quake? "nothing more than wiggle around" suggests you haven't. Takes enough attention to play her. Only counters to stun lock is debuff immunity, regen and damaging debuffs. The problem with doing abyss with him(using the stun lock) is that this is not how the game is meant to be played. Psycho Man didn't do much damage but his infinite heavy chain was too powerful, they got rid of it
    Stun immunity, Limber, One eye open, Mordos astral evade, Moleman/Crossbones/other shrug off champs, BPCWs stun reflect. There are just as many counters to this as Quake if not more

    Quake can play against stun immune and limber also mordo astral evade as ur just heavying if u can play stun immune well and debuff immune but takes a lot of focus due to ai constantly being in ur face only one that counters quake be one eye opener and crossbones

    Then ok different but i dont think players are using him for them fights anyway as the cheese is mainly being used in the hardest stuff like abyss depending on 7.2 people gonna cheese it a lot since doubt there is any stun immune fights, if we thinking endgame theres not really many fights that are stun immune if theres limber people use white mags pre fight so really its about this high end content like abyss or next big thing being countered by this stun lock since doesnt require anything but spamming sp1 after the last combo used
