    Time to add T5CC in the glory store. 2% selector every week could be really good, you would get 8 to 10% of a T5cc of your choosing every month.

    The thing is I believe that I am at the power level to deserve the rewards but just coz I haven't got the RnG to r3 a 6* I must have patience? We all know that the value of the rewards depreciate significantly in this game that's why newer players wont 100% LoL anymore coz the effort is not worth the rewards. By the time I can R3 a 6* the value of the percs wont be as much as now so having patience is not gonna cut it here.
    Yawn. I've completed act 6. Don't have a R3. I've got over 15k units and could do an abyss run or finish exploring act 6 if I wanted to. I don't feel the need to get the title the minute it's available though. All the complaints are funny. God forbid some people have to wait a bit to get the latest thing lol. If I had better RNG I'd have done the abyss with the Aegon I don't have. It's all good.

    @Catapoulpe maybe for the throne breakers

    That would be even more BS, we need something to help us get one 6r3 that is not rng dependant

    @Sillyboy710 I wouldn't go based on a tier list I'd choose someone you enjoy (I took my Blade up before Aegon etc.)

    100% agree that's why I'll never rank my 6* sentinel (he's a great champ) I just don't enjoy playing with him I find his animations very clunky

    This entire game is built around RNG. I cannot fathom how some of you continue to play the game but fail to accept this
    That's exactly my point. The entire game is built around RNG, and I have no effing problem with that. But the problem is that even titles which are meant to be for those with skill (which gives leeway for those without luck since they can bypass with skill) get completely screwed because they didn't get a t5cc of the class they own. And you have no idea how long it takes for a ftp player to make ONE t5cc, let alone of their own choice

    @Aziz5253 gating is about ensuring you're ready for the content, you wouldn't want a conqueror with 4*s playing Cav difficulty really. For cav you can only get when you clear content with 5*s which is RNG gating also, you complain like this when cav was released?

    The first point is quite unreasonable. You obviously can't have a conqueror player on cav difficulty. And no it's not really RNG gating because you can get around with skill with a smaller pool of Champs. You can see my history, I was in support of the difficulty but was in favor of better rewards. I'm talking about cav difficulty here

    You have the “skill”? Well that’s only half the equation. And as already pointed out that “skill” requirement means little to nothing now thanks to the nerf of story content.

    “Campaign progression titles help segment players so that we can appropriately target content and rewards to different levels of progression and roster maturity. With the switch to both a test of skill/progression and roster maturity, we’ll be able to do that for the top-tier players.”

    If you don’t also fit the roster maturity you aren't’ a throne breaker no matter how much kicking, screaming and complains about rng you do, simple as that.

    Build a bridge to get you over the river of tears son.

    I don't mind the roster maturity, but I was recommending setting it instead to 5 or more r2 6* because the resources can be gathered over months and then gradually be done. But there's currently no such thing for t5ccs because they're already difficult to get (the shards) and other than exploring act 6 or abyss there's no selector.

    Then again if they're making t5ccs more readily available in cavalier difficulties, then this wouldn't be a problem.

    @Aziz5253 I mean getting cav as in story progression, without a bleed immune champ you cannot get through X-bones etc. so it is restrictive, but we all get past it sooner or later

    I agree, but bleed immune has a very large set of Champs under it. And I don't think there are many people with more 5-7 5* Champs and no bleed immune in it, sure there might be some, but not as many

    @Aziz5253 took me 22! I know the rng screwed me there but still...

    And my first champ was a bleed immune! I don't mind the RNG really, but what I'm saying is currently it looks like an invisible requirement to 100% Act 6 because we get the t5cc selector (this is still far fetched because correct and favourable rng can get you a t5cc of choice way quicker)

    I already made a comment in this thread where I stated my opinion on that. https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/comment/1430515#Comment_1430515

    I do completely understand that some players are temporarily going to be exempt from this title because they have no r3 6* (due to bad RNG, but you may have act 6 and even abyss 100%), but if you are at that point in the game you should be able to at least see that having such a hefty cutoff will help in the long term with seperation of player progression. The problem with the cavalier title was that it was way to easy to obtain, and could even be gotten prematurely by just throwing some units at it. Having a progression level dependent on a r3 champ will ensure that players cannot just rush the progression milestones and start getting rewards way above their account level.
    They can rush it though, they just unit though act 6 and buy the t5 selectors.

    Once you’ve completed act 6 that’s the fastest way to obtain the title, at that point the differentiator is luck or cash, unless you push on to 100% act 6.

    Now those people that do 100% act 6 as a means of getting r3 will be separated from first time clearers by both the required roster depth and the skill and dedication levels required to do so (which is what I assume Kabam are trying to achieve) but will be grouped together by title with people who unit-manned through completion and whaled on catalyst deals (and also the true end gamers). We are then back at this point where we have a vast disparity in ability within the progression group and those guys who rush/pay through to a r3 are hugely underprepared for whatever content comes out for throne breakers similar to all the crying at cav eq release from the guys who don’t have a single champ for buffed up or diss track.

    As an example at the point I finished act 6 earlier this summer I had 5 r5s and nearly 40% of a T5cc, upon completion I took CV to r2 and had chosen mystic 25%. I’m not 100% sure (Happy to be corrected here) but fairly certain I could have bought the rest of that catalyst through the July deals and subsequent selector deals and taken her to r3 very quickly. Am I then at that point justifiably grouped with the end gamers, a 600k account with 5r5s and one r3?

    Is that the separation kabam are trying to achieve?

    I mean, it’s a shame that I won’t be able to get this thronebreaker title immediately, but atleast I’ve got champs in 2-3 classes that I’d happily r3 so I just need to form the T5cc to get there (beat 6.4 6+ months ago).

    Feel sorry for those that have explored everything and still can’t get the resources or champs they need though, maybe they could’ve had it so that you can get thronebreaker through the current method or by beating abyss and act 6 100%?

    Seriously guys..

    The “Throne Breaker” title should be just for the “Breaker of Thrones”.

    Period. 😊

    @StevieManWonder Ye probably not the hardest but it makes it hardest cause of charges as you said. Same with LoL , it aint hard but we get capped cause of enrage (not with our r5's tho)

    In terms of definition, yes. But you’ll be on the list of “unable to complete content catered to that select group of people”. (Which most probably will lead to more whining and complaining lol).

    Exactly, I’m agreeing with you. Original version of title is a much better way to divide the post cav group of players. One you need the roster and skill to get through act 6 100% and two it doesn’t pressure you to take a champ to r3 if you would be better spending those resources elsewhere. It’s much less rng dependent and closes the door somewhat on those forcing their way into the title through cash.

    If you think I’m in the group moaning about difficulty all the time btw, and that was a dig (I know you like to get those in all the time on those below your level), you’d be wrong.

    I’m in favour of more difficult content as it goes, cav eq was too easy, show up was unjustifiably nerfed and act 6 nerf was for the most part too heavy handed imo. I want content I can grow into. I want a challenge that’s always above my current skill level otherwise what fun is there in this game?
