Seriously. Two very hyped champions with so great looking special attacks, atleast the ones we've seen already look great. Great reward's, plus a long awaited Reunion that's staying for good. I can't wait to hear all the in depth details about this soon. I know the patch notes are out. But I crave more info.

The awaited "Summoner appreciation" doesn't went well tbh. (Doesnt matter if it was named something else and not appreciation)
Pardon my negativity.
From a player perspective, it is understandable that everyone cares about different champions (Eg. Spiderman 2099, Squirrel Girl, Peni Parker, etc.). But, there seems to be a little extra 'something something' about the excitement for Knull and Anti-Venom compared to reveals in the past.
I don't understand it at all from Kabam's perspective though. As far as I recall, no other champion received quite the fanfare as Knull is getting. A month long tease, with weekly clues?
They didn't even do that for Doctor Doom, who probably has the highest level of recognition/excitement among Marvel fans. They didn't do it for Apocalypse, who is an extremely recognizable X-men villain (comics, movie, animated series).
So, I am really puzzled as to why Kabam is specifically fanning the flames of hype for the October champions.
Why is there this synergy of extra playerbase excitement + Kabam marketing?
On a separate note, it is awesome that Symbioid is coming back and sticking around.
By the same token, I'm sure that Kabam staff are under pressure to get these issues resolved, whilst the pressure is still on to deliver new content that will improve the Contest and earn Kabam revenue.
September wasn't been fun for anyone, I think. The game needs an awesome October.
His motion comic remains my favorite and yet he feels quite underwhelming.
Second of all…for the disagreeable trolls, Anti-venom was officially introduced in 2008, Knull in 2013. If you have valid information otherwise, post it or pi$$ off.

It never seems to be the champs we have that are gonna change the game is it? Always the next one! Or the one after.
Anymore i start the new month not wondering if the new champ will change the game for me, i start the month wondering, "what's gonna get screwed up this time and how will they compensate us for it?" (Still waiting for my login crystal! Btw)
Looking ahead of Oct Event:-
THE GOOD (Credits should be recognised):-
Practise Function - a great addition, would be extra great if we could practise against champions we don't have (cause that is usually the one we would want to understand and practise against more) and by doing that we could resolves the Duel target issue, but still a great fun addition. Thank you Kabam team.
Summoner Symbioid - I have no idea about this champ (he was briefly available during my break from the game), but from the response of the community he seem much loved, so great to see the community excited about something. A much needed positivity for the community, so again thank you Kabam team.
Thor Rag Buff- It seem like people are generally positive of this buff, he is not OP, but more fun to play, and in some way for me I guess that is the right balance, not every champ buffs should turn them into the new God tier
THE NOT SO GOOD
Ongoing Lag and Input Delay - Well information on the work updated and it ongoing, so not really an October thing, and I'm sure they team are working hard on it. However it would be really helpful if the Kabam team could review and improve the Solo compensation package, there is a poll that show over 75% are not happy.
Missing Login Crystal - Well we were hoping this would be a September issue, but seem to over spilled into Oct - Hope it get resolve soon
Week 5 September Objective - Still no real info and solution for those who spent resource on ranking/levelling champs up before the objective was taken down and amended - Again hope more information will come on this.
Guillotine Buff/Nerf - Well there is enough threads on this topic, no point of me reiterating it.
THE UNKNOWN
Anti-Venom and Knull - Yep there were much hype over these 2 champs. These 2 champs is relative new to me, as they are more modern comics, but clearly there were a lot of expectation for them...how will they fair...I guess we will find out in a day or 2.
Looking at all of these, I wish I have more optimism for October but can't seem to find the evident for it.
Feel like a lot of issue from September (that continue over to Oct) is due to the lack of reviewing of the some of these concept for objectives, quests and so buffs, what might sound like a great idea of paper, might not work so well when people actually have to play and complete them. Maybe for November it might be helpful to re-review any plan and concept, test run tasks and objectives with test players. The lagging and input delay is still an issue (that will take sometime to resolve) so maybe a little less challenging stuffs (not sure how Kabam thought Shang Chi Act 2 was a good idea when players are struggle to Parry and Dex affective to the game condition).
I can imagine, that lots of people involved are quite tired, from the players, to the forum admins, to the game development team. So until the game status is more stable, maybe let keep thing simple.
Anyway just my 2 cents
