**KNOWN AW ISSUE**
Please be aware, there is a known issue with Saga badging when observing the AW map.
The team have found the source of the issue and will be updating with our next build.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
**KNOWN BG ISSUE**
We are aware of an issue with the seeding for the beginning of the BG season.
We are adding rewards to higher progression brackets to offset the additional grind.
More information here.
**Arcade is being extra tricky with his Murder Box...**
It appears Arcade has been non-cooperative in his approach to this month's side quest and presented his clues in a nonsensical order. Lucky you, Summoners, we have our best and brightest on the case and those clues should now be a lot more straightforward. While messing around in Arcade's files we came across a phrase, highlighted and bolded, with sparkles and pointy arrows: "the abode for the dead" ... Maybe that will help you along the way!

    Omega sentinel works well with her plasmas
    Also No one said about infamous iron man? Yes he can't do much damage but he won't crit and it will be slow but sure victory
    Gully99 works too.
    I'm just gonna use FAM against him tho

    They are all metal - think that will cause issues with reduced AAR
    But omega sentinel aar can't be reduced by mutant champs

    You’ll have a huge surprise as soon as you place those plasmas
    Got it.
    Sneaky onslaught inflicts a lot of neurotoxins while under plasma debuffs.
    Thanks for saving the day

    Yeah I'm gonna try Deathstrike, Shocker and Sam and see which one works best I have one as a 7* and the other two are r4.

    What about Kitty? She was the first one that came to my mind.

    I was thinking Kitty too but because she always crits while phased, I don't think it'll work too well you'll get a ton of those neuroshocks on you so fast you'll have to spend 90% of the fight phased to not die meaning you probably won't be able to throw any specials. I don't think it'd be too efficient.

    I can't quite remember if Onslaught punishes metal champs or not but if he does yes. Have you ever tried fighting a Magneto with a metal champ that isn't immune to aar? Goes from being the easiest fight on the planet to a guaranteed time out cause he makes all your abilities fail lol.

    Some other potential options:
    • Photon could also work, she can parry non-contact, doesn't rely on DOT, but she isn't reverse controls immune
    • Mister Sinister/Professor X: They are also reverse control immune
    • Human Torch: Most of Onslaught's attacks seem to be energy, which feeds Torch
    • Archangel: Onslaught doesn't seem to be bleed or poison immune
    • Juggernaut: Has #PsychicShielding
    • Red Mags: Is Onslaught #metal?
    So it looks like anyone who is reverse control immune and doesn't rely on debuffs can take him down

    All of those will probably work but it will be challenging, so far there's not a single champ that can shut him down completely though it seems.

    Mysterio.

    His ability accuracy cannot be reduced. And inflicts poison damage. IF you can land those heavies on him. Also he is reverse controls immune, with Emma synergy.

    Onslaught isn't Magneto.
    As much as he should've been at least near his levels of shutting down Metal champions imo, he isn't doing that

    That's another one I had in mind, I don't have him but I definitely think he'll be a solid option, one of the best in the tech class probably.

    Yeah I was just rewatching the deep dive and it doesn't seem like he shuts down metal champs, as long as you can dex his sp1 any champ will work. So really all you need is a tech champ who doesn't deal damage through shock bleed incinerate or plasma and who doesn't crit.

    Hood Probably can solo onslaught as onslaught attacks can't miss against metal but hood is non metal so he will work + hood has invisibility so he can miss onslaught sp1 and sp2 hits

    What he does though is inflict neroshocks on you when you hit him you can get rid of them by dashing back like when fighting toad

    When you're metal you cannot remove the neuroshocks on you

    Hmmm I complete missed that part jeez he has so much stuff in his kit. Depends how much Mysterio crits then, I don't think he crits that much before sp3 so I still don't think it'll be too bad and if it's a 7* fight's over after sp3 so won't matter that much if he crits a lot after sp3.

    I do think a champ.with XL (Big size) tag would counter Onslaught.

    Juggernaut when unstoppable don't move a centimeter even with most powerful attacks.

    Well, Nimrod is #metal meaning he won't be able to remove neuroshocks, if you try to basic attack him to death you'll probably die before he does so there's that too.
