Imagine that, a company that needs revenue to operate, try's to encourage people to spend money on the game that will allow them to further develop the game and keep it running. And also comment and say that is how you will be able to get the character in other ways after the initial first 6 months ! Seriously guys without offers like this to entice people to spend on the game how the hell do we expect it to keep running.
This. Completely agree. People need to realize that MCoC almost exclusively a P2W game. There is no way around it and this SW Sigil thing proves it. Kabam doesn't care about F2P players.
Awesome. As I am a regular Sigil subscriber, I win. I've never won this game before: this will be a new experience. Can previous winners tell me what we get when we win?
I really fail to see the gripe. If you don't like the way the company operates THEIR game you are free to find something else to play. You are not entitled to something just BECAUSE. They are a business that requires profit to operate and there is absolutely nothing wrong with them offering a CHOICE to people as to whether they wish to participate or not in helping them generate said profit. This is one of the ways they have decided to do it, i actually think its a pro player move based on the fact that its not RNG based and by the looks of it you can guarantee the champ. If you feel so strongly about it don't play.
We've seen a misconception going around that we want to clear up.
We don't plan on having anything available for Sigil Credits except for Scarlet Witch for now. There won't be any other items available for purchase with these Credits.
I hope this clears this clears things up for you all.
There’s plenty of games that charge mandatory fees.This game has been going on for years, everyone should be glad it’s voluntary to spend money. You don’t need to, but got be grateful for the whales 🐳 and those who can afford Sigil. They keep the advertisement away, and pretty much pay for the game development. Nothing is free, people need money to make the game continue to grow. Most people will spend 20 bucks a day at a fast food joint without complaining. But act like they’re broke to support a game they enjoy to play…

any idea on the pricing for scarlet witch as 5/6 star as well as what an uncollected/cavalier/thronebreaker player can earn each week?
If all you ever spent on this game was $10/month for 6 months, wouldn’t you still essentially qualify as FTP? That’s pretty insignificant, so I don’t think this hurts the FTP principles. I guess if you truly have no way of linking payment to the game at all and can’t even do the $10/month, then you are SoL regardless of how minuscule the cost is. Then again, you should have come to expect a general disadvantage by now with no way whatsoever to make purchases in a game offering purchases daily, monthly, quarterly, etc.
I think its cool to be able to acquire a 5 or 6 star Scarlet Witch just for paying 10 bucks but this isn't very favorable for the free to play players. Hope she'll be attainable in crystals or something soon for free to play players. Overall, its cool yet unfair.

it's not like kabam were going bankrupt without releasing her for money only. no one has problem with offers but they specifically say that there will be no other way to get her for the next 6 months meaning ftp don't have any way at all to get her.
Ftps don't have any other way for new characters except spending anyway. It takes a lot of time for new characters to get into base pools.
Cant wait to pay 100 dollars while having an active sigil sub to buy a "striker" and a "relic" which can be only used an limited times like boosts. Thanks kabam!

So now we're just gonna make stuff up huh. Working hard for that mention on Prof Hoffs channel.
When I first read the original announcement, I read it as the current Scarlet Witch would be a sigil only version for a 5 or 6 star and then the new one would be available as a playable character and would eventually be made available through the crystals. That makes more sense to me.
I’m actually surprised Kabam didn’t have some ‘trophy’ champ already as part of the Sigil The fact they are doing this now means they realise how they can monetise the game more and remember all you F2P players that Kabam are here to make money and when they make money they will keep re-investing in the game we all play.

Can almost imagine the click bait title already...
We won’t know until next week, but do you think Kabam will allow you to own the Sigil for one month and have enough Sigil credits to get the 5* or 6*? I’ll bet you will need to have the Sigil for at least 3 months to earn enough credits for the 5* and 6 months for the 6*. At that time, the f2p players will have their opportunity for SW.

Im glad your excited. Good job the sigil and any other purchases are optional and we dont HAVE to spend if we dont want to!!
I feel this is blowing up way too much, Would you expect a person who pays a membership fee for a service to have the same benefits as people who pay nothing? No you would expect a little more or why else would anybody pay for something they get free
Take youtubers for example becoming a monthly paying member entitles you to perks (icons, chat, line chats etc)
It also provides choices for people to either spend or not

I-Hulk is the best no retreat counter and I'll never hear otherwise
I feel double. I don't mind trophy champions like Goldpool, Platinumpool or Deadpool to be available to players only through real money.
With Sigil SW, I was under the impression this would have been released like a regular champion, as she was the MCU Wanda. Especially as she's a pretty good champion and not trophy-like. I feel tricked by Kabam.

Weapon X is also a good champion. He is also a trophy champ. There is no correlation between a trophy champs usefulness and their status, only a perceived notion.

Please tell me it is not energy refills. Or gold.

Do you really think this game had a life expectancy of more than a few years originally?
I buy the sigil to support the game. I understand the ftp struggle but it’s not like you can go to the sigil store and buy CGR for $300.
The fact they are doing this now means they realise how they can monetise the game more and remember all you F2P players that Kabam are here to make money and when they make money they will keep re-investing in the game we all play.
