I believe his YouTube videos are what makes him money as I doubt he has a side job with the amount of time he spends grinding. Unless he's able to move on to a different game and have enough followers follow him I don't see him doing it. I'ts not a given he would be able to recover enough subscribers on a new game. Not that I care as I don't see the point of most of his videos. I hate grinding....watching someone else do it is even worst.
Seatin kinda left the game and didn't make a big deal of it.
BG should not even be playing at the level he is playing at currently, he is able to because he is a 4loki OG.
This is his business and I doubt he would be able to transition into anything else because Kabam has tried to get us to switch to mroc and the newest revolution game and still no luck lol.

I don't think Seatin left the game completely as I still see him do the odd video but he isn't spending the kind of time he used to. You could also tell this was coming as he started posting non MCOC videos likely as a test to see how many of his subscribers would watch. It's kind of too bad I really enjoyed Seatin's god tier list even if I didn't always agree with it.

Your point is well taken though
Yeah I should have said less active. He post every 14 days or so.
Brian is a humble guy and not the type to chase status or money. He's the biggest streamer and doesn't even take himself too seriously, he just does it for fun. I don't know why people think he's threatening to quit, he just said he's less motivated to make channel content.
Well, a good portion of his content is aimed around showing people how to compete for free. Which is admirable. The problem is, competing head-to-head with spenders is never a goal to set. It's folly. People pay for an edge up. That's what they're buying, in one form or another. People can play COMPETITVELY for free. They can't match the whales.
It’s a shame that this kind of thing happens, but if we compare this to a more traditional hobby/sport, such as say running; what is the price of entry to the competitive leagues?
What about something more fun, like downhill skiing? How f2p is that? Ok what about… chess?
I want to see Brian grant succeed, but any popular recreation has a price of entry.
The difference with mcoc is this game also has a built in kill switch, with the chase from 4* to 5* to… 7*s. Will we ever get to 40*s? I suppose I hope so…
The game will die either before introducing 7 stars or soon after doing so
I'm not a f2p player by any means but not a big spender either. For the past 2 years, on the average I've spent every month. I don't mind spending a little bit more cos but that won't even be enough to make it worthwile. This is a cash competition more so than an event for those that can afford it and Kabam is ready to milk it. While they do so, they'll leave so crumps for people like me to collect along the way. If RNG favors you, you may eat well. My problem with Kabam is, they know how to milk cash from this game meanwhile this year the actual game that we play has been suffering from control issues for too long. Important adjustment or update like mastery setup that will make things better for summoners tremendously, even improve AQ and AW experiences is non-existent (how long since they said they're working on it?). Also, how long and often do we cry for communication. Did we even get any info ahead of time about the rewards/drop rates of this event. Don't we at least deserve that so we can plan especially cos there's money involved. And if not, how about communicate and tell us why. Hasn't it become normal now to see errors and bugs in new releases from drop rates in store to champion descriptions and contents? Didn't we even get an error in this event on the drop rates? Don't worry we'll soon hear from Kabam as usual (it's YTCC with a huge following), in summary they'll tell us they appreciate our feedback and keep it mind next time. The next thing next time, similar reaction by the majority. My point is I just want them to use this brilliant idea of milking money to solving our game issues and treat summoners like the VIP we are starting with better communication
I like BG. I like KT1. But honestly, I feel like some of these people only truly get upset when something they don't personally like happens to them. They can overlook other issues (complain about them some, but let them slide) when they can deal with the problems thanks to their deep rosters, big allies, bank roll, amount of time available to grind, etc. And for everyone else who can't, well, then it's just not the content for you, right now.
I'm sorry for the "competitive" players who feel shafted, but welcome to the club. Honestly, this game has never been competitive. It's never been a contest - how could it be when money is involved and provides an advantage for those that have an abundance of it? Money is king in business - thems the facts. Whether anyone wants to accept it, Kabam is here to make money, not provide a "contest" for the fun of it.
I get the entire argument, I really do - folks are upset because someone with little time or skill, can buy an R4 if they spend thousands of dollars.... tthousands of dollars - let that sink in - that is a lot of money and it's a pretty small subset of people willing or able to do it. Anyone allowed to spend that much and willing to spend that much money on a mobile game, so be it. The rest of us, let's be human, budget our money/time for real stuff, and be realistic about the power of money in mobile game that incentives spending.
Everyone with an R4 right now already spent money on this game at one time or another. They built their accounts faster by buying CAVs, buying items for AW/AQ to get the best rewards, buying the R4 deals little by little or buying units on the fly to knock out content. But everyone with an R4 right now (up until todays gifting event), absolutely also spent money on this game to be at the top.
Someone like CowWhale was spending thousands a month on CAV crystals, ensuring he always had the most current champs . Then, he also spent 10's-of-thousands on gifting, to ensure he had a never ending supply of the most coveted rank up resources of the time that he could dig into at the drop of the hat so he could dupe them, rank them and max sig them from day 1. How was that competitive? How was that different? It wasn't - it just didn't impact a certain subset of player, who now know what the rest of us have experienced for years. Welcome to the club.

From what i understand of Brian, I think it is more than that. I'm skeptical he'd quit, but it has more to do with how he specifically views and plays the game in general. But while I think he's not the only one with issues with the Gifting event, I think a large component of his issues with the gifting event are very specific to him, and I think he is fully aware of this.
I think the most important part, is that with money grabbing events like this one, there's no competition fun anymore. Just like he said, why run abyss if you get the same rewards with money? This is not only affecting ftp players, but a large majority that do buy a few stuff here and there occasionally, but don't spend 3k bucks in a month. It's really sad, you don't have the same excitement anymore getting a cav nexus by working hard on abyss, when you know that lots of other whale-players got it just by spending cash for fun.

The game is very competitive. Wherever you are ranked, you will find similar opponents, similar ally mates , similar AQ results, and Similar roster levels.
There is no reason why you should be competing with anyone else.
The major problem is people only have to go off YouTubers, but it's a small portion of players that represent the community. You go through forums and you see people are happy about their first TB champion or even their first R5 champ.

"Why run abyss if you get the same rewards with money." I dont know. Maybeee because abyss was what 2-3 years old now? And players like BG have benefitted from Abyss rewards up to now? Sure man if other players want to not complete abyss and just want to wait around 2-3 years until this year's gifting event happened PLUS was able to get into the top 3 gifting alliances sure man. Sure.

Nah I’m not confident enough in that statement to bet on it lol

spoiler alert - that abyss nexus that a few people will get, is completely worthless to those people, because they already have every 6* champ duped

That’s a good point. Then I will trade them for something they can use, like a monocle and a top hat, and maybe some oversized bags with dollar signs on them!
also you guys need to keep in mind that KT1s entire gimmick and how he gets views is anti kabam talk, so of course he HAS TO be negative and hammer them for everything, regardless of what he actually thinks

which is quite funny, given his main source of income nowdays come from this game, and im not talking about youtube. was in ally with him. the lad is as toxic and entitled as it gets.
Every year players deem the Gifting Event game breaking because it changes the game meta. Every year, we the players support the gifting event.
My reality is the top 300 spots have almost zero impact on my game play and my alliance. Matter fact I'm starting to hoard units now. I plan to have 120,000 unit for next year's event. Arena here I come.
Also keep in mind that most of the rewards in rank rewards and GGCs are worthless to whales.
Generic awakening gem? Worthless.
Sig stones? Worthless.
Any of the old rank up materials like t5b, t5c, t2a, t4b? Worthless, because what differences does another r3 make when they already have 50 and can only use 5 at a time just like everyone else? Even if they buy 2000 crystals and keep opening them all year round, it's not an advantage.
Whales want rank 4 cats and the crystals have crumbs and rank rewards cost $10-20k. Ask yourself if you are willing to spend that much for 2 rank 4s.
The competition is nuts but they're competing against each other. I was quick to judge Kabam for gifting but it doesn't affect most of us, it's going to be okay.
Ya people are thinking about how the stuff would impact THIER account, not how it impacts the account that the people who actually finish in the top few spots. Giving me 10 million will change my life, giving Elon 10 million won't change his day.

Is it even possible to grind out 120K units in a year?
I both dislike and enjoy the event. I dislike it because I'm not always strong in the ways of rng and I usually don't save enough units for it. But I enjoy it because it tops me off or provides me with more resources to use for ranking or crystal oppenning. The only thing I don't like about it is how it is filled with scam and scandals each year, which kabam normally takes to account the next year. I never worry about the top rewards because it isn't for free to play or minimum spenders. I will say. This event had and always be a spenders and luck event. The gap between f2p /small spenders and whales is that, a gap, and it will always be a gap that will shift periodically but never be close to eachother. At least for long. I will say I disagree with the top rewards this year and think they are promoting r4s a little fast. We all knew they were coming but the rewards up there are just filthy...but this event is the one time of year where everyone has a chance at getting some good loot, while also hating the event simultaneously
I personally feel that the point BG is trying to make is that Kabam is, even more so than the past, making whales and big spenders the priority. I am TB, have been for 8 months, and I have have 1.5 t6b and not even 1 t3a. If I wanted to, which I don’t, be in a top alliance, what chance do I have? Zero. Someone like BG has no chance of competing with this pay to win event, because that is what it is, and he very could lose his place in 4Loki. Is that going to happen? No. But if that alliance leader decides to push for top 10 AQ, then BG gets replaced… why? Because he didn’t spend $1000 or more on gifting to get r4 or at least some sig 200 r3?
That is the whole point of his video. I am a BG fan. The reason so is that he doesn’t talk about tier lists, makes ftp or minimal spenders feel like they have they chance to compete with those that do, and it seems is just a good guy. He plays the game well, has great MCOC knowledge (albeit almost no actual Marvel knowledge), and is a GREAT voice for the community as a whole. For someone who has generally stood by Kabam, unlike Seatin and KT etc…, this is a major slap in the face to him. For the record , I 100% agree with Seatins latest video. But for BG and others, this event is a middle finger unless you are willing to drop a few thousand dollars on it. For those that disagree, let me know in 6 weeks how your former top 20 alliance is doing now. Or better yet,when you don’t have multiple r4 6* to maintain that top 20 position, let me know how you’re doing in 6 weeks. Adding Weapon Flex in this pay to win crystal is just more of slap in the face to those that did actual legends runs. Don’t even get me started on the “Abyss Nexus”….

I'm sorry but how is adding weapon x a slap in the face? They stated there is to be no more act legends runs. Are you going to say then that having kang and thanos in there is a slap too? Because the only other way to have gotten them previously was, you guessed it, act legend runs.

People said the same thing about 6*s. About PB. In fact, this is the longest living corpse in history.
i like watching BGs stuff but people stop playing and making videos all the time. not to say who cares but who cares really??? i don't play the game because BG does and I won't quit the game because BG or any other YT creator does.
he's entitled to do what he thinks is best for him ... and that's his prerogative. salute him and enjoy or don't enjoy the game as you see fit.
i don't have a problem with whales doing what whales do and Kabam giving them the opportunity. what may take a F2P player years to accomplish, they can in a few minutes with a large bank account. such is the world ya know.
i don't play to compete with others and their rosters. i have enough to do the content without being a whale and i'm good with that. God bless the whales ... we need them in all honesty.

Is it even possible to grind out 120K units in a year?
Without straight up buying the units? Possible but extremely difficult completely F2P. Do all the arena milestones and you get to about 56160 units. The BC it takes to do that will probably get you in the general neighborhood of about 2000 units a month from arena crystals, which gets you to about 80000 units. Units from various solo and alliance events can get you between 1k and 2k units a month (I think, I haven’t counted), call that 18k per year which gets you to 98k in a year. Special calendars and events gets you to about 100k in a year.
The last 20k would be squeezing a rock to get. You could just do a lot more arena rounds for more BC, but you’re already doing a lot of round to grab all the arena milestones. A non-F2P option is to sub the Sigil and buy the bonus unit offer. The bonus unit offer is 735 units a month or about 8820 units per year. The Sigil gets you an additional 75 units a week or 3900 units per year. That gets you to about 113k units in a year.
It isn’t impossible, but I doubt if anyone is doing this completely F2P. Moderate spending and a ton of grinding can get you there.
The opportunity cost is probably not worth it, though. The GGC rewards are good, but not the literal best options for units across an entire year. And 120k is nowhere near enough to get a top leaderboard reward in the gifting event, so it is unclear to me that would be a good option to pursue.
OMG, how are you guys offended at an Abyss Nexus for top 30 rank rewards? It has a $15,000-$20,000 price tag and they have no use for it.
The top rank rewards only look good to us peasants, but it's mostly worthless to them, they just want the r4 stuff to use on someone like Surfer. Maybe we can be thankful we don't play at that level, because the higher up the AQ ladder, the more miserable the game usually is.
I don't think the nexus is what people are concerned about

Is it even possible to grind out 120K units in a year?
I've gotten extremely lucky on battlechips and grinded 2000 a week, to keep that luck up over 52 weeks? I don't think so no. But then I don't grind all the milestones in the 4*, whatever it's called now. But I do open about 10 or 11 tb arena crystals a week.
I opened 1.4 million battlechips, and only got 750 units a few days ago,, that's 28 crystals. An alliance mate opened 1 crystal at the same time with me and got 1125, so anything is possible.
also you guys need to keep in mind that KT1s entire gimmick and how he gets views is anti kabam talk, so of course he HAS TO be negative and hammer them for everything, regardless of what he actually thinks
Based on what are you saying he’s insincere? I don’t care for the guy, but if you’re going to say stuff like that in a public forum, I’d recommend you back it up. And if you won’t, maybe don’t go there
What? i'm saying he's smart. The community loves negative stuff and anti kabam videos, it was a compliment, not an insult
Comments
BG should not even be playing at the level he is playing at currently, he is able to because he is a 4loki OG.
This is his business and I doubt he would be able to transition into anything else because Kabam has tried to get us to switch to mroc and the newest revolution game and still no luck lol.

For someone who has generally stood by Kabam, unlike Seatin and KT etc…, this is a major slap in the face to him. For the record , I 100% agree with Seatins latest video. But for BG and others, this event is a middle finger unless you are willing to drop a few thousand dollars on it. For those that disagree, let me know in 6 weeks how your former top 20 alliance is doing now. Or better yet,when you don’t have multiple r4 6* to maintain that top 20 position, let me know how you’re doing in 6 weeks. Adding Weapon Flex in this pay to win crystal is just more of slap in the face to those that did actual legends runs. Don’t even get me started on the “Abyss Nexus”….
Opens GGC and gets 6* AG: this event is great
he's entitled to do what he thinks is best for him ... and that's his prerogative. salute him and enjoy or don't enjoy the game as you see fit.
i don't have a problem with whales doing what whales do and Kabam giving them the opportunity. what may take a F2P player years to accomplish, they can in a few minutes with a large bank account. such is the world ya know.
i don't play to compete with others and their rosters. i have enough to do the content without being a whale and i'm good with that. God bless the whales ... we need them in all honesty.
The last 20k would be squeezing a rock to get. You could just do a lot more arena rounds for more BC, but you’re already doing a lot of round to grab all the arena milestones. A non-F2P option is to sub the Sigil and buy the bonus unit offer. The bonus unit offer is 735 units a month or about 8820 units per year. The Sigil gets you an additional 75 units a week or 3900 units per year. That gets you to about 113k units in a year.
It isn’t impossible, but I doubt if anyone is doing this completely F2P. Moderate spending and a ton of grinding can get you there.
The opportunity cost is probably not worth it, though. The GGC rewards are good, but not the literal best options for units across an entire year. And 120k is nowhere near enough to get a top leaderboard reward in the gifting event, so it is unclear to me that would be a good option to pursue.
I opened 1.4 million battlechips, and only got 750 units a few days ago,, that's 28 crystals. An alliance mate opened 1 crystal at the same time with me and got 1125, so anything is possible.
