Didn't post this in the other thread, since, frankly, it will get lost, and
@Kabam Miike or anyone else from Kabam will read it.
With the free AQ maps, Kabam says people are encouraged to try higher level maps now, since they don't cost anything. Great!
However, those higher level maps also LOCK your champs in, so, with the final days of AW winding down, that ties up 8 of your best champs. Then you will have AQ, and the higher level maps need 3 of your best champs, and, of course people will be trying for Act 4, which needs 5 of your best champs.
So, you would need at least 16 4* 4/40 champs or higher to participate in all those events, add to that, grinding arena, and finishing up the other events, and... 1 week is just not enough time!
Sure, this won't affect the big dogs that have rosters of 50+ 4* 4/40 champs and higher, but, for the ones this appreciation week is supposed to help, it will cause them lots of hurt not being able to participate in Act 4's cost reduction.
So, as a fix to this, I suggest that the AQ champs NOT be locked, no matter the map that is picked.
That will really help!
