**UPDATES TO ENLISTMENT GIFTING EVENT:**
To prevent exploitation, we will prevent new Accounts from being able to Gift enlistment crystals. We will also be taking action on those who are using 3rd Party Sellers, Bots and other farms to gift themselves mass amounts of Enlistment Crystals. Lastly, we will be adding an expiration timer to Enlistment Crystals. All unopened Enlistment Crystals will expire on Oct 18 @ 17:00 UTC. For more information, please see this post: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/346104/updates-to-enlistment-gifting-event
**KNOWN ISSUE**
We have adjusted the node placement of the new AW maps to better allow path traversal. As a result, defender placements have been reset. Please, take a moment to re-place your defender setup. We will be pushing out a message in-game shortly.

Why is this champ not used more?

Proxima is one of the most underrated champs in the entire game. Let me show you why.

This is a 5* R3 sig 77, soloing Rol Winter Soldier in just over 2 minutes and less than 100 hits. No suicides. Corvus and Ragnarok synergy.

    You want underrated? Diablo ;) but seriously, she doesn’t get used much because she needs 75 hits and fights where there are no damage caps, there are faster champs than her. Where there are damage caps, there are better ramp champs like aegon or g2099. And she is hard lacking in utility

    Caiw isn't used that much nowadays too

    I wish damage caps didn't exist
    She could've been an option for abyss and lol

    Ummm.. you sure about that?

    I wouldn’t even use Proxima at all just because of what she can do, but the requirement to play her style is just not reliable. For it to work it need the opponent AI to cooperate from A to B nonstop or something like that. I do use her for her -200% AAR during block/parry.

    Most champions will finish the fight before her ramp up is done and her high damage is also useless where it really required like Labrinth and abyss because of damage cap

    I hate her. Got her sig 80 as 6*. Her novelty is only in super masochism and masochism other than that she's passable

    I mean if her missions follow 1,2,3 order in every single fight, a lot more people would use her for faster fights.

    People forget that damage caps were there because prenerf guilly could do massive damage with just a sp3

    I am not saying he is bad or he isn't used at all. I'm fact I have him at r4 max dig I will r5 him soon. Only thing is he isn't used much frequently

    I’d be fascinated to see the data you’re basing this off

    The data is that he hasn't pulled him as a 6* champion yet so therefore he is "not used". Spider Gwen is a top 3 science remember.

    Proxima just isn't attractive for most rosters. No immunity, limited utility. She is a good champion but there just isn't a content you would NEED her for, and basically every other cosmic has more to offer than her.

    As for CAIW, that's just utter nonsense. People still use him very often in day-to-day content. Universal champ. Has damage, immunity (w Skill), can negate Unstop and has godly block prof. He doesn't shine like CGRs, Ghosts etc, but he consistently makes it to players' teams for pretty much any type of content
