ETA on Shocker Rank Down Tickets?

I realize it kind of came out of nowhere for Kabam, but figured by now we'd have these tickets. Just hoping for some sort of update from Kabam. Lots of changes planned for my roster based off these coming in. Thanks

    I do wonder why it won’t be “anytime soon”. Kinda sucks. Got a r2 duped Photon id like to take up. Plus I feel like in the past when RDT’s were announced by the team as being given for a particular champ, they came fairly quick.

    Because if he says expect it soon you all have flying hige hope with is bad to giv people then it better to say it this way and then giv people a surprise if it can early then you all expected it.

    They have to create a champion specific item. They have to design it, code it test it and then figure out who has him.
    There would probably just send it to everyone who has him regardless or not but all offers point u said matter to need to work to

    I don't understand how it's disappointing? Shocker works just fine and everything Miike said was relayed in the original post
    Have you used him since the update? I used a heavy after a level 2 and did 1% to an opponent in battlegrounds. Didn’t feel to me like he was working fine. I did more with my mediums that his “ramp up” damage. Huge damage was the only reason to rank him. There’s nothing else that he does, that there’s not a better option for

    Or just not change shocker from where he was and negate the tickets…

    That's the thing, Shocker literally hasn't been changed. It was glancing that was changed.

    This comment is missing a lot of context.

    Feel like when they did that in the past they were out fairly quick. Not sure how long this one will take and if they are just trying not to get people’s hopes up. But yeah, him saying it’s gonna be a while indicates it might be a good amount longer than in the past.

    I personally disagree. I feel like “yeah we’re looking at July 1st but it’s not concrete” would be awesome and not really build hope up too much. It gives us something to pinpoint. I’m just gonna play it safe and assume we will never get them so I’m happy when we do

    Just give to everyone with 7day or 1 month expiry date? Will be much easier and less intensive.

    You have not been a part of this community long if you think even that would be safe

    @Kabam Miike i could have missed it, did you already update Shocker? If you aren’t ready to provide rank down tickets, then leave the champ as is. Kabam always says it wants to provide an equal platform. We are at a disadvantage now for decisions made correctly based on the game mechanics

    So did we get confirmation that if you are valiant and rank him down from rank 3 to 2, you still keep the title? Also, I ranked him from a gem. Are we getting raw materials or a gem of the same type or (most deviously) a new rank 2 to 3 gem crystal?

    You should still keep the title. Brian Grant did it with Mole Man and the Paragon title.

    You should get the raw materials as well

    Don't worry homie. They left Shocker exactly how he is.
