What do You think about the Champion Restriction Removal?

Terra

Title.

Personally, I believe it's a good idea.

I'm pretty indifferent about it probably a good thing for progressing players that need synergies though

I'm thinking we're getting some nice Carina's Challenges out of it, but aside from that, I also think it's a good thing. Granted, 5 and 6 (and 7)-star champions are much more available now than before so I don't believe it's quite as big of a roadblock for newer players as it was for older players back in the day, but I vastly prefer the Act 7/8 system of boosting the higher rarities power rather than completely gating off lower star ratings. That made 6 (and now 7)-stars more viable than 5*s, but you could still bring in 5*s for synergies or if you simply didn't have a, say, poison resistant 6*.

If a n00b ends up solo'ing Act 6 with a 4* Hercules, you know, all the power to them.

Additionally, I think it has somewhat limited player creativity. I can't wait for SlayerOfGods to defeat the Grandmaster with just a 4* CGR. That's a self-imposed challenge that was never possible previously.

It also opens up new avenues for testing champions out. I had some trouble finding a Korg for a video I was planning on making, simply because he's not featured extensively in the two latest acts. That led to my champions being way too OP when fighting him in previous chapters. However, if I could have just brought in a 4* version of that champion, those Korgs could still have worked out and I could have gotten the video done.

It's just good for a number of reasons, I think.

Its great overall. It’s more freeing to the newer players and it doesn’t hurt anyone. Plus I’ll be excited for some new carinas challenges out of it as long as they’re skill based and not revive grabs.

It was clearly Removed As an experiment to see how long it would take for MSD to solo the champion with a 2 star she hulk

Noob_Master69

Agreeing with the rest above me, would open up some stuff for Carina's!

Aside from that it doesn't really affect me at the point where I'm at, but it used to be a huge hassle back when it was first introduced so I'm happy atleast some new summoners don't have to deal with it

Caps locks key still stuck?

ReignkingTW

Garbage. I suffered through that without NF for the CMM synergy. Everyone else should suffer just as much.

Why not just give Thronebreaker away for free?

captain_rogers

I think it's bad. Now players can bring synergy champs like wasp,hood even if they don't have them in 5*/6*. This makes game more easier

Hera1d_of_Ga1actus

this is a slap in the face for all *redacted*

UnOriginal

Most people thought locking act 6 was a Bad move i'm glad this helps accounts with non skill based roadblocks like the 6.2.2

Wubbie075

I was pretty indifferent, but now I am happy about it because we get to see everyone whining about how they didn't get to do it.

Repto23

I’m worried about future of Carina’s Challenges

Only a 3* patriot against 7.4.6 Kang and what not

Marvelfan30

I think it's great.... Now who's going to solo the grandmaster with a 3* 1st. 🤣🤣

Demonzfyre

Pro-
1. Wider availability of synergies to use.

Con-
1. New players will strategize even less now.

Pikolu

I like it because I can bring Steve in to it on my alts

Ghost_Fan

This ban shouldn't even exist in the first place.
And the ascension excuse is just BS

GroundedWisdom

I think it's appropriate. The game is no longer at the same meta point it was when they were introduced, and there were reasons for the gates. Really doesn't matter now either way. People are content-rushing all the time. I don't think it's healthy for development, but it is what it is.

Maat1985

i just think it is less important than it ever was.
people are getting more and more 6* quicker and earlier than ever and previously people could have used 4* much more than they could before.
also lets be real, not that many 4* are going to be of much help to the average player anyway.

4* are going to help for synergies and not much else.
if someone has the skill to take down fight after fight with 4* in act 6 they clearly know what they are doing....

i just don't understand why do it now? it was more useful if done earlier

SlayerOfGods

I can't wait for SlayerOfGods to defeat the Grandmaster with just a 4* CGR.

Fun fact: I've actually never soloed the Grandmaster. I've just never been good enough at that fight. So it probably won't happen.
