For the record, I meant the notes.

It's usually a week or so before the release of the coming month's content, or even the Friday before it drops. Since we're still 12 days away from next month's update, it'll probably be about a week until we see it.

I read this as “Batman buff” and thought I was having a fever dream

Like the Monday after next. We got a while. The update comes out the Monday before the new EQ.

I hope it's a proper buff. I'm still bitter that they made an event for us to vote for who's going to get buffed only to be one of the biggest anticlimactic thing they have ever done. It was Guillotine vs Antman. It was an excitingly close fight for the community and then Guilly won (I grinded the Arena to vote for her) but unfortunately ever since that event, I haven't seen anyone who uses her for anything at all.

I just duped him from a Paragon daily crystal. Hope it's a good buff lol

My expectations are low for this buff I hope they don't mess up

Lets hope the runner-up from the summoners choice buff program gets dealt a much better hand than the winner ....i just duped mine from the EoP rewards hopefully he gets a proper buff for the vast majority of the player base and not a buff targeted for newer players...

My guess would be a “good enough” buff and not a great. The reason being Sam Wilson’s synergy. Antman has almost no damage and 3 abilities. There’s no way they can make him worse, except nerfing the mentioned synergy.

Stryfe really need some immunites.

I am not keeping my hopes high as i just don't want to get disappointed...!!!!

The buff will likely be weak, because of the synergies, or the kabam nerf some synergy.
It's better to nerf the synergies and make a good buff.

So they're saving untrumpable glance for nodes so those fights can be overly annoying.

i didn't know Antman was ever an annoying defender. i have never seen him placed lol

Fighting him is more of a drag than actually difficult; I guess he could maybe timer stall?

i think it sucks they're removing the glancing .. if he had any shot of being an annoying defender it was that. so now ... just like Juggernaut you essentially take him away from being relevant in war at least.

I thought they would improve upon glancing.. seems more like a nerf than anything to me.. don't really regret rank2 6* but I have many other 6* that I could have rank2. Hoping the buff didn't nerf Antman Capt America Sam Wilson synergy.. lay on stacks of fatigue then convert to poison debuff.. if it limits it to 12stack poison only.. that does not bode well (if its not touch) Antman sp attack can stack max 12 potent (toxic) poison as personal sp limit which isnt same as poison thru Sam Wilson synergy would still be possible.. right?

So kabam John said on interviews with Jayaxe and xn about antman and his buff and the change to the sam wilson synergy but my question is are the ghost (+15% attack per debuff) and quantum trinity (+25% attack at the start of the fight) synergys changing?

I head that Sam Wilson synergy will nerfed and won't stop debuffs or something, such a bummer. I grinded for 5* Sam Wilson last week for only this synergy since I'm mainly play Ghost almost around everywhere, just wanted to make Quantum Trio stronger.

Besides that I hope his buff will be good.

In my opinion, it really depends.

I mean, Ant Man at the moment can only stack 10 ish debuffs most of the time (for the sake of argument, that’s an estimate).

Say the buff now allows him to stack 20 debuffs most of the time, with poison, petrify, power sting, fatigue etc. I don’t think it’s really reasonable to allow a 300% damage increase when the synergy has been designed to increase it based on how many debuffs he currently applies. In this situation, and let’s say again for the sake of argument that the buff allows him to stack in general around 20 debuffs, then id say a similar total attack bonus to before the buff is reasonable.

So instead of pre buff 10 debuffs giving 15% each for a total of 150%

We now have 20 debuffs giving 7.5% each for a total of 150%.

Just because a synergy is changed, doesn’t mean overall the champ is nerfed. It just means that basic abilities change, and synergies that go alongside that need to be adjusted for their new kit.

I mean, for sake of argument, let’s say now that Ant Man can stack 100 debuffs really easily. Do you think it’s reasonable to keep the synergy at 15% attack per debuff? So you had a damage increase of 1500%? That seems broken to me and in need of balancing.

I got a r4 6* antman and its actually very easy to stack more then 10 debuffs I was able to get above 100 debuffs on lol starload and was hitting almost 50k medium crits and 38k light crits

That was just for the sake of the argument, to illustrate the point that the number of debuffs ant man can apply will change after the buff, so it makes sense for the synergy to change too.

Oh ok,tbh they never said that his fatigues were getting a cap only poison so that still is up for debate
