    Howard with the pre fight ability icon?

    Also there is a space in middle of HtD and Crossbones that looks like someone else should be there. If Crossbones gets a tuneup, HtD gets an update, who would get the overhaul?

    If this is true...one more foot out the door for me. Can't get new champs without $$$$. Seemingly buffing old champs around my entire roster :D . Not much to get excited about these days.

    not sure why anybody is takin this seriously the pic says it comes from trucos but he literally hasn't posted at all about it - sounds to me like someone wants to make a fake "leak" look more credible by putting a credible persons name on it... :p

    Literally found this in My chat and they said trucos leaked it

    whenever he's leaked stuff in the past it goes to his twitter and facebook pages. that's how he's always worked. there's about a 1% chance that this is real. I mean come on, who would be a safer guess for new champions than two MROC characters.

    Howard already got reworked as Venom the Duck

    Groot SIM IM and OG Cap need the buffs more than anyone. Until you buff the most useless champs in the game you're just making them worse and worse by the current meta. I mean, where would you use Groot IM SIM or OG Cap in endgame conten? They all suck so bad I don't even want to use them in arena.

    I don't know but I think Crossbones may be benefitted more from a moderate update instead of an overhaul buff.
    He is good right now and definitely not the candidate for overhaul.

    Howard the Duck needed that for sure.

    Hope this leak is true.

    Early April fools joke perhaps?

    Maybe.

    Just expect it to be an April Fools joke because... April. And the idea of Kabam reworking Crossbones over Doctor Strange after putting Strange in almost every crystal is beyond my understanding.

    I think this is false those two champs only need a tune up or a value only update something in the line of Falcon and Gambit, i can list 40 champs that need a complete overhaul and those two in my opinion should be good with only a tune-up.

    Make Cross Bones basically Colo but with furies and we good

    Where did you get this? It literally just looks like the Level Up background with poorly plastered images and text

    Howard and Crossbones literally just need a tune up or a buff like Mole Man and Terrax.

    Crossbones I agree needs a tune up, but HTD needs at least a moderate update to add new abilities to his kit, while enhancing his existing abilities.
    Didn't Kabam say were doing 2 moderate updates/1 overhaul a month and they weren't doing tune ups/value adjustments anymore?

    IT DOESNT MATTER WHO GETS BUFFED FIRST

    Kabam is buffing 36 champions this year, everyone has different preferences for which champions they want buffed. One person wants an Iron Man buff the most, another wants a Karnak buff the most, another wants a Groot buff the most, and so on. They can't buff all 20 2015 duds in one month. Just be patient, more buffs are coming.
    Groot op though

    Originally, we were to get 2 overhauls in April. I think that might have changed after the new cadence of buffs was announced.

    We will probably get a 2 moderate updates/1 overhaul month next month because I don't see any world where Crossbones gets a full overhaul. He needs a moderate update.

    All those champions would get complete overhauls. X-Bones and HtD would likely get moderate updates if this rumor is even true. Thought I had seen something about BP and MM Spidey being in the works for overhauls. Maybe one of them shows up with these 2.

    Agreed. I think for the most part, the only champions that need complete overhauls are those early champions with 1 or 2 lines to describe the entirety of their abilities. Later champions have enough in their kit to enhance and give them a couple other utilities to round them out.

    I don't think this is official

    That's why I was asking kabam if it's true
    Kabam doesn't generally comment on leaks.
  • HoitadoHoitado Posts: 3,707 ★★★★★
    I highly doubt this Is real.

    1. anyone can make this it looks bad.
    2. Those images can be found online very easily
    3. Trucos leaks stuff on Twitter and Facebook
    4. Why would they use Auntm.ai images for the character pfp
    5. Just no

    Until we hear from the devs I’ll take this with a grain of salt, but I personally hope that Howard and Crossbones are getting buffed. I have both as 5 stars, so I would love to have uses for them, more specifically Howard.
