**UPDATES TO ENLISTMENT GIFTING EVENT:**
To prevent exploitation, we will prevent new Accounts from being able to Gift enlistment crystals. We will also be taking action on those who are using 3rd Party Sellers, Bots and other farms to gift themselves mass amounts of Enlistment Crystals. Lastly, we will be adding an expiration timer to Enlistment Crystals. All unopened Enlistment Crystals will expire on Oct 18 @ 17:00 UTC. For more information, please see this post: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/346104/updates-to-enlistment-gifting-event
**KNOWN ISSUE**
We have adjusted the node placement of the new AW maps to better allow path traversal. As a result, defender placements have been reset. Please, take a moment to re-place your defender setup. We will be pushing out a message in-game shortly.

Why are Groot and Elektra considered "bad"

    They don’t do good DPS (damage per second), if they did then they’d be good

    Bring Groot anywhere in the game and you will see

    Controversial opinion here, but I think Groot is underrated and deserves better. if you awaken him, he gets decent abilities like Physical resistance, Fury and Cruelty. While he certainly still isn't the best, he is still better than a lot of trash champs, like WS or Captain America and his WWII twin

    Preety sure my 4* r5 CGR will hit better than a 6* r4 Groot.

    Groot's only form of damage increase requires him to get hit repeatedly.

    Utility-wise, he has bleed immunity, debuff duration reduction, Regen on his sp2, and a bleed on his sp3.

    Literally.
    Nothing.
    Else.

    As a quick buff for Groot they could at least double (if not triple) the potency of his Pacifism-created buffs. Groot needs more than that, but it would make his burst better.

    My r2 6 star duped groot with like 5 furys and 5 crueltys crits for 7300 on the sp2.

    My r5 4 star nightcrawler hits about the same damage on his sp2.

    THATS A 4 STAR CHAMP

    (sidenote: I did actually convince my MCOC-playing brother that Groot was a good champion hehe)
