Can We Please Stop Adding Deathless Pieces in Battlegrounds

I don't think I'm the only one who feels like this. Battlegrounds have been very encouraging for people who have bigger accounts and whales, but there are some casual players who just wants the deathless pieces without the grind of battlegrounds.
It was possible with Deathless KG so I don't see why not continue the trend of not putting deathless pieces in Battlegrounds.
Would probably better to have a Carina's challenge of sort like using the 3* of the original champion in ROL. Still better than climbing to GC.
Hopefully others will agree.

I think the “bigger accounts cruise through BGs” argument isn’t totally accurate. Some do, but for many accounts that don’t make a career of BGs it’s a slog like it is for everyone else. Double that slog with the seeding mess and then add some more on top for the impact of 7/4 deals.

I don’t loathe BG’s… but grinding for GC just isn’t my cup of tea and makes me loathe the mode. I like rolling through the ranks at my own pace and not stressing where I finish.
The deathless chase as a whole is fun for a subset of players. Another subset will find acquisition a chore at best with lots of frustration and resources used in ways they don’t desire. Some in the latter group will press on, others (like me) find it not worth it.
They have been pretty clear who they were targeting to participate for thanos acquisition so I don’t think it’s unfair for them to scatter these about in content and milestones that aren’t desirable for the rest of us.
If you made this post when the season is about to end, I would've talked in favour of you. But there's 19 more days into this season. You cannot get to gc if you never try to in the first place.
You don't like/don't play bgs? Cool. There's more content in game other than bgs, But deathless piece is only for those who play all game modes.
Cause I don't.
Ordinarily I’d agree. But this BG season has been fumbled from the start, which should have caused the team to reconsider the location of the Vision piece.
We always hear “but it’s too late to change”—unless, of course, it’s important enough to change, in which case it’s never too late. Hard for me to believe the crack team of coders at MCoC can’t come up with a way when the season was a few minutes old and they realized their mistake.
Don’t misunderstand—I’m at Vibranium now and will get the piece given the time remaining. But I think this season should have been handled differently.

I would prefer most pieces be in permanent content, but I'm not sure how that would work.
I got three 7r3, but I've matched with people who have seven 7r3 and all duped/high sigs.
I assume they put the deathless piece at end of VC to get everyone to play and bolster the numbers to get more people matching after the last few months where numbers of players pushing high were noticeably reducing.
But having a rather slow and often boring grind all the way to VC for a piece of an average champ seems rather lame. Eventually I’ll wake up and realise I am wasting my life chasing a grey coloured champ I don’t care about and give up. Don’t give me hours to realise that problem by making me grind a repetitive mode that I’d rather not be in ,distract me with new exciting content to engage me! It’s like putting the piece in an arena, no way would they do that to drive game engagement.
It’s a shame as for me I’ll certainly stay away from the mode from a long time after being forced to play rather than actually wanting to (good riddance I hear you say! Ha)
But it might just accelerate non addicted players to exit, all by forcing their hand to play (for hours and hours!) a mode that’s clearly quite love it or hate it for a lot of players.
Surely putting the piece in the solo objectives would have been better, less grind and leave the vibranium tier for those who care about it and actually want to enjoy it and be all competitive with each other.
It really hasn’t helped with this whole starting point demotion to gold increasing the grind. For me I only played last season to reduce the hours I’d have to play this time, but that was completely wasted. I don’t want more rewards, I want hours of my life back!
it was for me the most disappointing mess up kabam have done for a long time. The rewards they added are just no way worth the hours of extra time I have to spend playing a mode I don’t like. Felt like bribery : we messed up, we won’t fix it, here have a rubbish 7 star dupe you don’t care about and only half of a rather meh titan crystal. Humpf.
They should have ended the season early, given a rewards sample and restarted the whole mess in the right tiers. I do not agree with their “fix”
Also on the topics of BGs can we have an options switch to have permanent mute on emotes please. I am so fed up of people spamming emotes and generally being aggressive when they win a round, it’s really unpleasant to have to grind through these idiot children. Why do they give it the big one when they have a massive roster and beat me in the final round. What did you think was going to happen, just shut up and beat me quicker so I can go to the next match and you can go irritate someone else. Or in fact maybe take a break go outside and enjoy life that isn’t tapping on your phone. It doesn’t matter, calm down, stop pressing the stupid buttons.
