I did not see this in the notes nor a discussion post but wanted to show the Kabam team some love.
Last update showed some map 8 changes I feel are player friendly. There may be others but these two affected my path directly.
-G2099 replaced with rocket in section 1, path 6. Originally there was silver surfer here and during the bigger AQ update, they replaced surfer with g2099 to meet the lane intent better. Unfortunately this made g2099 unblockable at the start due to an armor up and made the lane more difficult to find a true counter for the full lane. And if you lost the cross fight ability, it made things wayyyy harder trying to intercept and unblockable g2099 who power drains on sp1 without hitting you and goes invisible unless you knock her down. Simply put, it caused more resources than previously required when the change was touted as player positive. Little bit of forum talk and one month later, champ changed to rocket which made sense and met the original intent to the path.
-OG Spidey replaced with silver surfer in section 3, path 1. This one was my second biggest resource drain. You have to 5 hit combo or you start to glance. This coupled with safeguard made for long fights. And you could not parry or put DOT on them without it being reflected to you. Answer is always Apoc for that path who covered him well but an evade could cost you dearly. He was recently replaced with surfer who makes the lane more consistent with the intent to the lane.
Thanks Kabam for the changes. Total win for Map 8 players!!
