Name change in the contest

Hey Kabam! My name is Teeya. I came out as transgender this year, and changed my name. As a result my account has my deadname in it. Its honestly not that big a deal for me to spend 275 units, thats like a weeks arena grind for me, but I’m just wondering why it isn’t free or of less cost to change your name? Thanks!

I have no insight beside the speculation that excessive name changes complicate things for them, but I’m interested in hearing a response.

Best of luck!

It's to pay for the guy that sits on the backend, ready to change the name anytime, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week 🤣

Just to piggyback on the name change thing.

If we redeem rewards from marvel insider thing, under a “Fred”. Then change that name to “Steve” before the rewards come in, will we still get them?

They used to give you a free name change token do they not do that anymore? I used mine just to use it haha.

I no joke switched my username from
“Doctor Doom-17”
to
“Doctor Doom -17”

I can only assume that each player is tracked on a unique ID rather than a name, so changing a name wouldn't affect anything.

I would hope so. Everone should know not to use data like a username as the unique ID...but it happens.

Don't be too concerned about them, the only piece of value that those insider deals had were the 3*s of the new champion, and even then that got outdated with the new arena changes.

The fact that the name change tokens are out makes me think that that wouldn’t work
