**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.

There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.
Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

Clarifying the Known Buff Schedule

Reading back through the update on champion buffs...
From what I can glean, we know OGBP will be getting some type of buff for May.
It also appears Miles will be a bit later and will be a full overhaul—perhaps summer.
The revised target will mean a single big update and a pair of more moderate updates each month—which would imply OGBP gets the big update for May and another pair of champs receive a more modest update. We could guess Miles is the June big update (or later if it takes longer).
Does that accurately sum up what we think we know as of today?

We also know Odin is getting a tuneup, what we don’t know is whether this will account for on of the two tuneup/update buffs.
We also know hood is supposed to be rebuffed at some point.
Miles is confirmed for a buff, but that it would take longer due to VFX. The timeline for BP was we can assume 4 months, since we had his confirmation in February, when work had already started.
Judging by the that, miles will most likely be July/August
It also tells us the kind of pace they’re working at it if BP had work started on him in at least February, although I imagine January is more likely. We can also assume overhauls take longer.
Judging by that timeline, unless they shift one of the originally scheduled buffs, Odin should be an addition since I reckon work will already have started on those 3 buffs in March.
Pure speculation but it’s what I can devise from the information we know
Bad pulls have always been a part of the game, and while they still kind of hurt now, every bad pull now has a chance to become the next magneto, or the next falcon.
Such an amazing thing Kabam are doing
Much, much appreciated.
Now—any chance @Kabam Miike could provide an update re: where we stand on OGBP, Miles? Not asking for any state secrets, but just a directional commentary on those two plus Odin, general loose timetable—anything. No commitments, no one holding anyone to anything.
Would appreciate any info that could be shared.

As for the rest, do we know anything? Just trying to revisit the public statements and get a clear picture of what is immediately ahead. Not trying to steal the Coca-Cola formula.

Personally I took a small gamble, I believe he will come some time in the summer
Also if that pulls is the next Howard, i'll also take it, Kabam really nailed it, he's just so enjoy to play and his damage and utility is acceptable and worth the ramp up.
However a notable coincidence to point out is that almost every champ that has been overhauled or updated has been in a recent featured Crystal..
I’m hoping Jabari and Centurion are signs that this year’s champs are improving, but if not, I’d much rather they put more resources in revamping pre-existing subpar champs than giving us new subpar champs that they’ll have to buff later on.
If I were them, I'd put a rush on some easy buffs to hold in the back pocket for when everything breaks. Because it always does. Always.

It would be good to get some idea of what's coming, but I understand Kabam not revealing much too early as it risks Summoners ranking up champs before they have evaluated the merits of any buff for themselves.
