Rank down tickets should return based on new AW Diversity.

Through my whole time playing this game I've always suggested which champs to rank based on the old AW. This new diversity rules have changed the way we look at who to rank for Defense now. It's no longer certain champs anymore, now we need to gameplan who to use our T4cc on. I'm not in one of those Alliances who have T4cc in their stash and can use them at will. But we do have certain 4*s at R5 based on the old system. Now that the majority of us cannot place the same defenders, they now become useless... I'd like to know if rank down tickets are in the near future so we can readjust our defense to go with this new system of Diversity Points and Defender Ratings.

How many of them and for what champions exactly?
Is impossible to determine an answer. No champ was affected, and not all alliances place the same defender in the same node
Generic RDT's is not an answer. There will be no more generic, only specific ones.
Again, some alliances place luke cages in node X. Other alliances place Mordo, Magik's, Cyclops, Spider-Gwens, Colossus, NC, Dormammu's, Iceman's, Red Hulk, AV, Wolverine, and basically every champion in the game.
So it's impossible to determine which Ticket's are needed, because NO champions were affected.
Top tier 1 wars. Both teams usually 100% so diversity decides the winner.
I did that on purpose, but it seems you didn't understand ...
Top players known what champion to place on defense.
So how about low tier alliances? They place anything, and rank up champs because they think are good there.
So, EVERY champion is placed on defense. EVERY one.
So it's impossible to determine what RDT's can be given.
This topic is the kiss of death in these forums. But A LOT of people maxed certain champs specifically in no other way than for AWD. I have 5-r4 Spidey and decided 4-R5 Spidey both needed maxed out for AWD. Not to mention other guys who R5d BPCW and others like him.
How to quantify amount of alotted tickets? Idk. We say 5, Kabam says 1, we'll take 3
Because diversity drastically changes the dynamics of AW by heavily devaluing the better defenders that serious and smart players have been ranking up, Kabam needs to reconsider diversity. Either that or provide limited rank down tickets because let's not pretend that people didn't rank up champs because of AW defense and now they are punished for that previously wise decision.
Providing 1 generic five star, 2-3 generic four star, and 3-4 generic three star rank down tickets would probably suffice.
That's why generic RDT's will not be back.
"Choose the correct Champions to rank up for your purposes is an important part of the game, so choose wisely!"
Our purpose was based on the old AW, that is what we based our rank ups on. We had chosen wisely with how things were, it's not like we messed up for having many defender kills on our defense. And I'm positive most Alliances based their recruits on their defense also, not just their prestige. This is a major change to how we look at war and how we prepare for it.
Well he did say only for when a character is adjusted to no longer perform the way they should. Changes to AW in no way changed the way champions perform, all their abilities are the same and they still have the uses they were designed for. Its not like 12.0 where the changes in someway directly effected every champion in the game. There is no argument for generic rank downs at best people should ask for champion specific rdts but that still leads to problems with what champion rdts should be issued and it would leave kabam open to endless spam with people arguing certain champions were effected but weren't issued rdts for.
I try to agree with you a lot now, but here... many have done r4 Ant Man just for Thorns alone... with that removal of the alliance war, ant man isn't usefull for anything now....
They surely could do with a 5* science rank down ticket at least?
I don't have a r4 Ant Man myself, just saying that there are obvious ones that have been hit with these changes.
Not saying that those people aren't impacted by the new AW but if they chose to take a champ up purely for one node on defence, that's not exactly a good decision imo if you're referring to 5*s. If you're referring to 4*s at rank 4 then there's not much harm done. Tier 4 basics are relatively easy to obtain even if you're not competitive in AQ. No need to rank them down if that's the case. If you're referring to a 4/55 5* antman for thorns only, then that's a mistake on the player's part. 4/55 5* is currently the most powerful level a champ can be at. So it doesn't make any sense to me to rank up a champ that's completely useless to you other than one node on defence. I don't think rank down tickets should be issued as a result of that.
Rank down tickets = another kick to the nuts
Don't ask for them, don't wish for them. Pretend they don't even exist.
They don't get it.
Rank down tickets = nerf
Don't know why they can't understand it.
So yeah I'd think Rank Down Tickets would/should be the way to go, and even if they're not generic, maybe one of every class or maybe 5 crystals that can award class rank down tickets as it is 5 defensive champs and one or two generic 5* rank down tickets for those that have champs all the way up to 4/55 just for defense.
That's just my idea anyway. I personally don't have anything against defense diversity, at least maybe because of it I don't have to fight 4 NC's in one lane or even 5 Dorms. I suppose it does solve that one nasty problem.
If there's another solution besides RTDs I'd like to hear it
