You don't like any parallel that doesn't fit your narritive. You are presuming that kabaam wants to keep T1A a captive resource, yet kabaam has made statements that make me think otherwise. If you are right it would be nice to have kabaam lay the topic to rest. I am tired of discussing it.
This quote from Kabaam is why I don't agree with your presumption. I know they are talking about T4CC, but T1A is a "less rare rank up material" and would be comparable.
So if you believe Kabam is looking at the supply why are you bothering with the poor arguments?
In arguendo, Given they “drastically” increased these materials that frees up more glory (which they have increased) for you to spend on t1a.
But yeah they do deliberately manage available resources to meter progression and give players something to work towards.
I will find it during my lunch break but it is when they increased T4cc frags to map crystal. It was an announcement.
What do you consider to be a stupid rank up? I took my 5* am to r3 over lots of potential 4* rank ups. Was that stupid? In the short run probably but in the long run definitely not.
In my book any duped 5* takes priority for rank ups over any 4* unless it's a god tier 4*.
Either way, if you spend glory on Alphas you cant buy t4b. If you buy t4b you cant buy alphas...
If a map 2, 3, and 4 have alphas in them so should map 5 and 6...As you play harder maps reward should grow in the crystals, not be taken away.
Rank ups done for the sake of ranking 5* up. Example ranking spidergwen up because "muh 5* are future". I have a mate who does nothig but complain about t1a being non existant, yet he refuses to rank 4* and ranks 5* he will never use outside arena. Thats being stupid with your rank ups.
The way I look at it, dupe 5* shouldnt necasarrily take precedence over a better 4*. Example, you dupe 5* collosus. Who takes precedence, him or 4* iceman? Him or 4* x23? Obviously resources would get better practical use out of iceman or x23 over collosus. Why I want to see rosters is because I fully believe half the people complaining about no t1a are doing the opposite and choosing 5* dupe collosus over 4* iceman/ x23, even though collosus has no practical use to them. Their purposefully choosing to use 10 alpha over 3 because "muh 5* are future*. Its a self inflicted shortage. Obviously doesnt apply to every single person, but again Im willing to bet over half are. Different situations will warrant different choices for rosters.
Myself, I get 1 alpha from alliance event weekly and buy 2 from glory for a grand total of 3 a week. I dont do alpha arena. Ones from eq are bonus, so 4 extra a month. Ive never had a shortage of alpha, always have enough to rank up a new champ. I have 2 r4 5*, 3 r3 5*, 4 r2 5* and 7 r1 5*. I have 14 r5, 9 r4 4* and over 50 r3. My personal bottleneck is gold, but thats 100% self inflicted because i dont play tons of arena.
I actually have antman 5* at r3 myself as well. Used on defense so it had purpose. Hes gaining even more purpose with the Mordo nerf for those who still get messed up by him. I dont consider a rank up done with purpose behind it stupid, but i do consider ones done, again, for purpose of "muh 5* are future" stupid. Especially if you will never use that champ outside arena.
Im not trying to sound condescending or be a **** like some folks, but this forum often has trouble applying logic to situations and this is definitely one of them.
Lose lose situation for Kabam which isn't fair.
Pretty well written but I don't agree with your logic. For me, ranking up 4*'s is basically pointless unless (as I said previously) it's a god tier 4*.
In choosing to rank up a champ there are basically 5 total uses for any champ: arena, AQ, AW attack, AW def, and questing.
So if I have a choice between a 5* and a 4* I have to consider all those areas of the game.
Arena: 5*s will always be better.
AQ: already use 2 r4 5*s in AQ attack and no 4* is going to replace them
AW attack: use 1 r4 5* and I have blade, GP, and iceman at 5/50 to round out that team. No current 4* is going to replace any of those.
AW def: 5*s will always be better here as well because they can eventually be ranked up higher and have a higher PI.
questing: 5*s win out again because they can be ranked up higher.
So to answer your question, if I had the choice to rank up a dupe 5* colossus or 4* x-23 (I already have a 5/50 iceman) then I would choose colossus every time. x-23 would not benefit me in any area of the game. At least colossus would help me out in the arena more and eventually I could potentially rank him up higher and stick him on defense.
No 5* are not better in arenas.
And it sounds like your only use for ranking champs lays in AW defense as your attack teams are built out. So how is Alpha failing to keep up with your actual needs?
Do you not see the issue with having a basic rank up material as the bottleneck? Something that you use on a rank 2 4* should not be what holds you back from ranking a 5* champ.
The two major choke points created by the alpha imbalance is r3ing 4* and r2ing 5*.... that is what seems completely illogical to me
4* r3>r4 = 1 t1a
4* r4>r5 = 2 t1a
Not bad yeah? Wait for this...
5* r1>r2 = 5 t1a
5* r2>r3 = 5 t1a
5* r3>r4 = 6 t1a
Boom quick maths?
Now with the 5* shards about to flood in there is no way to dispute there is a MASS shortage of t1a. We can only hope that 6* champs don't require mass t1a consumption as well.
*The snowflake tears in the form of abuse flags will help make a nice cup of coffee. Thank you whoever you are.
You make less and less sense the more garbage you spew.
Get rekt.
He just reiterated what we have been saying over the past 10 t1a threads that you've spammed your nonsense in.
