Maybe they aren't buffing these champs (really buffing them in any significant capacity where they could become useful like Magneto, Colossus, Falcon, etc) coz of the incoming Relics?

Personally I think bs every time a buff turns out disappointing and the argument for it is: not every champion can be OP...

All we need is for a champ to do one or two things very well so that we 1. Have use for that champ in content. 2. Enjoy playing that champ.

None of the great buffs have broken the game so far. But they make us happy to have that champion and use them when we need to.

Circling back, if the big plan is to make us buff our useless champs ourselves by means of Relics, depending on how these Relics will be aqcuired... I don't see a future in it - and sadly much less for the longevity of the game. I'm speculating on how this will go but I know for sure I'm not gonna spend resources (even less so real cash) so that I can take Juggenaut to a quest and he won't suck.

If relics come I’ll just take my 40 bucks and dip. I aint got no time for that bs.

Relics are coming, and likely soon. But I believe for the time being they will be limited to the Solo Competitive Mode that is due to roll out soon.

I sincerely hope that we aren’t getting weak buffs due to some pending system. That would be a bummer.

I don't think it's that. It's just there wasn't much intelligent design into her.

I agree. Like I mentioned in another thread, it’s like her kit was cobbled together by a bunch of ideas that are cool in isolation, but don’t make sense when put together. Like, what is her purpose? Her rotation? She’s got these unique mechanics but they don’t actually come together to *do* anything except make the opponent bleed real good. Neat?

I'm not too impressed by the overall buff, cause as so many others have pointed out, it sounds as though more was taken away than what was given.

That said, I am looking forward to trying her out with Purgatory to get those crit bleeds!

Also posted this question in another thread:

I really liked OG Guillotine before the buff. Have a duped 6* and ranked 2 her way before they announced the buff.

Than I made the horrible mistake by R3 her as I already liked her and I imagined it would be only better, because it is a buff, right.. but after reading the spotlight I have found out that the main reasons why I liked her (pre-buff) are as good as gone after the buff goes live..

Don’t need the rank up recourses back, that’s the risk I took by taking her to R3 just because I already liked her before the buff and the life steal + killer sp3 wouldnt be taken away! Well I was wrong.. haha

However, because of the life steal sig ability I gave her around 70/80 sig stones. Do you guys think there is any possibility of getting at least the sig stones back? I gave it to her because of the life steal, as this will be standard in her kit right now I feel like it has been a waste of sig stones i gave her a few months ago..

anyone experience with a situation like this?

Thanks!

I really feel for you man. I would ask support. The mods here are covering their eyes with their hands and refusing to speak. The buff nerfs her sig and makes it useless, i would ask for them back.

That's unfortunate. Never invest important resources on a buffed champion until the release of the spotlight.

Told you so.

She’s terrible and her healing is non existent. Talk about a massive letdown. Just scrap her and redo her completely.

Here's the current gameplay.
What do you think of the latest reworked Guillotine from current release v32.3?

I have a 6*, but like, what's the point? KT1 covered it and said meh, RichTheMan is dissapointed and many other YouTubers. She was bad on paper, there was a slim chance I could have been wrong. It's even worse than I thought. We just got a generic parry-heavy champion with occassionally a SP1. It's boring.

I loved guillotine before her buff. Had an r5 5* sig 200 and loved her life steal ability and massive damage from s3 based on soul count with there being no limit for it. Now im a little disappointed with how it is after the buff went live. Even took the 6* to r2 in hopes it was going to be a great buff. Id even be fine if they took the buff back

The unblockable special attacks when in unshackled mode not working properly?

Apparently, the interaction is flawed where the Unshackled effect of the special attack removes the souls necessary to trigger Unblockable.

Or so I read once.

Curious what’s about to happen with Guillotine.

Hope for some information soon, waste of sig stones and other recourses. She was such a cool champ before. Really gave her a chance, but she is not making it on my team anymore.

Not in AQ, not in EQ, not in AW.. sad. 6* R3

It is what it is.

Honestly if she's just being left as is rdts are in order for those of us who liked and ranked her before. Would be great to hear something official from kabam but at this point doesn't seem likely.
