Like what exactly were you guys thinking Kabam !? What did you do in those 6 days that AW was off. I mean it's just absurd that one alliance that leaves their whole defense EMPTY with no bosses at all can just win over one that spend time creating a defense and managing nodes etc. I mean, what are beta testers for !?
Facing alliances with no defense is just waste of 2 days dammit.
There's a simple fix to this. Make the defender placement points EQUAL to attacker kill points. That way we don't get screwed by filling our defense.
Or just bring back the defender kills.
Make it right...its that simple. Placing no defense as a way so win is terrible.
1 5k PI Repeat Defender Placed = 10+50 = 65 points
1 5k PI Diverse Defender Placed = 125+10+50 = 185 points
If you don't want alliances that place no defense to win, the solution is simple: Don't place repeat defenders.
The current system is just bad on so many levels; please fix it. AW was my favorite part of this game.
Except that there aren't 150 different champs in the game to place.
Except that that is irrelevant, because diversity is separate per BG.
except.... GROOT... GROOOT.... GROOOOOOT!
It wasn't supposed to be according to the announcement
Yeah because Mike has totally never been wrong before.
I have Nightcrawler as one of my top champs. I ranked him up solely for for defense, because defender diversity didn't matter. Now it does. You're telling me that my decision to use rare resources and make Nightcrawler one of my few champs that I actually use was a waste?
No I'm telling you that if you don't want alliances that place no defense to win, the solution is simple: Don't place repeat defenders.
Let me rephrase that:
You're telling me that I can't use my Nightcrawler if I want to win against people who take advantage of this moronic setup?
However I'd suggest creating a strategy with your BG to decide who has the strongest copy of each champ and work out who will use them and what other champs they will place to create the best synergy team while remaining as diverse as possible. It leads to a lot more interesting strategy than "everyone place Nightcrawler, Magik, and Juggernaut"
The current strategy:
Everyone in a BG places their single highest rated champ without doubling up. That's 30 defenders.
The points gained from a 30 man defense in diversity, rating and placement along with the points taken away from the other team in attacker kills outweigh the points gained from a full 150 man defense in those categories.
Was this tested? Or, is the only math Kabam knows how to do is $$$.
Judging by your comment, I will assume that this was meant too happen or you guys knew it would happen from your lack of concern. Also by not telling us that you will have the team look into this immediately.
It's kind of ironic that you say Kabam can't do math, when you think that 5x10=30
You're proving my point, whether you want to or not. I don't have the strongest Nightcrawler in my BG. You said, if I want to win, I can't place him now. In order to win the broken War, I can't use the champ I ranked up solely for War.
It seemed to have backfired... they wanted more $$$ by taking away DKs. They thought people would buy more revives and potions, but now, the best way to win is to do as little fighting as possible.
I completely understand your point. The thing is, I just don't care about your point. The only thing I am telling you is how to win, not "should you or shouldn't you be angry at Kabam for changing wars."

Here's what you just said in math terms:
150 is greater than 185.
I hope that you can see your error there.
What you're saying is that the only way to gain more points than an alliance who doesn't place defenders is to NOT use the best defenders that your whole alliance has ranked up?
