April buffs announced ..ohhhh boyyyy...

HTD , Crossbones and Nova are getting buffed . Curious to see who is receiving an overhaul , which will be announced soon.

So whom do you want an overhaul for outta these 3.

I have all 3 as 5* but Personally want Nova since he is OP in the comics and deserves the same treatment in the game.

HTD is getting reworked
Crossbones is getting moderate update
Nova is getting a tune up
I think its CB bc they removed his critical hits and gave him furies and with each fury he lowers DAA lol
Crossbones has always had those abilities... except the gaining furys when he would crit.

Nah he always has had no crits, furies instead of crits, and DAAR per fury. The only change to those abilites is now he can get precision buffs which is essentially a +AA on his fury gain, and gets 5% more DAAR vs heroes.

Crossbones' Small Changes and New Synergies look Great, he was already a Good Champion and this just breathed new Life into him.

HTD's Rework looks Solid and Really Fun, his Ability that makes his Personal Buffs/Debuffs Expire 1 at a Time sounds really good and like mentioned in the Spotlight possibly Great with the Despair Mastery. (Although they didn't explain his MASH Ability super well, hopefully they'll let us know how it Stacks soon)

Nova's... It looks like they only made 3 Changes and listed his even Prestige Incorrectly, they did him So Dirty AGAIN... I really hope they forgot to list some other changes or they take this one back like Hood because the changes are so minimal (especially compared to the others) that I don't think you could call it a buff... (Not Every Buff is gonna be Amazing but this doesn't even feel like a Buff)

I hope it's Nova for the overhaul
Read through novas spotlight and seems like he’s pretty much getting a very slight damage buff. Doesn’t seem very promising

I would wait for some vids before jumping to conclusions.

I’m not sure this completely confirms htd is getting the overhaul but on this thread, https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/258268/crossbones-and-htd-quest-changes#latest, it says that they’re removing two nodes from Howard because he doesn’t have those things in his kit anymore. To me this means that they’re completely overhauling them but I might be wrong.

This isn't like some possibly complicated change that will change everything, he literally got 3 Changes all to his Damage Slightly... That's It. You don't need a Video to see he got No Buffed Utility or anything beyond his Fury and Energy Damage being Slightly Better.

Nova doesn't have much utility and his damage doesn't make up for it. Add to that the fact that you have to keep close eye on his charges and whatnot and be careful of dashes while other champs have 10x more damage output with a simpler playstyle and he's really disappointing.

yeah i read through it .. that's a bummer

Kennado

Since they are buffing Howard , they should also change his quack sound ..so annoying lol

YES!!!!!

Finally a champ whom I own as a 6*

And I don't have high expectations from him, but he looks like he will be fun to play and that matters to me.

I realistically expect fairly low damage, ultimate healblock and solid power control, but nothing more.

Since I have Nova in 4, 5, and 6* of course that means I would prefer it to be him, but of course that means it probably won’t be. Crossbones at 5* is my highest natural dupe, so guessing it won’t be him either. Guessing HTD since I only have him in 4*.

ESF

Get outta here with those 5* rank 5’s

Love that kind of commitment

I dont like the three choices at all. Is there any possibility of getting an agent venom re-work or upgrade? It's been a really long time since he's been buffed!

Good that Kabam has changed from overhaul every 3 months to every month so we can expect re work of tour fav. Champs as well.

No, unfortunately it's not a democracy, it's a Kabam-tatorship. All jokes aside, now that they're overhauling at least one champ every month, the chances of Agent Venom coming up just got a lot higher even though they've already announced the overhaul for May.

I hope it’s Howard cause Howard the Duck is my favourite Marvel movie

Wait who’s the overhaul for may? I know they said they’re working on og black panther and miles but idk if they announced either was for may

Aleor

I feel like htd will be best case smth like cull - nice for damage, but heavy reliant and not very practical to play.

BP has been confirmed for may

Nice hopefully his buff will be worthy of a king

They already gave us some ideas of what to expect so now he requires a more aggressive playstyle and will have different animations.

HTD and Crossbones are both looking like viable high damage utility champs.

Change to CB sig ability is MASSIVE!! But looks like he needs to be max sig.

Source? This is the problem - it’s not in announcements or anything. I’m not trawling Twitter or Reddit all day for cryptic release teasers.

Try looking in the Spotlights section, on this very website.

Seems like a pretty big update. I anticipate the auto fight improvements the most.
