Call me stupid and impatient, but it is kinda late in this month and I certainly would like to know names. Not even spotlights, just the names.

I’ve been doing some leaking myself and I’ve heard of a Doom buff

Nice try Karl

I’d like to see a mystic. A science would be cool too.

No actually, game updates usually come on mondays. I’d assume this one will come out on Feb. 7th.

Monday or Tuesday, it varies. Probably like a 70/30 split. Usually Mondays, but it’s Tuesday often enough that it’s worth mentioning.

I think they should stop buffing champs. They’ve proven time and time again that they focus more on buffing them defensively than offensively.
If anyone from kabam is reading this please do not take this as an indication of what the community at large thinks. This is demonstrably wrong.

There has been 0, none, and nada buffs that have only made a champion worse for defence. Some buffs have made them slightly worse to fight, but not significantly worse, and furthermore, the overwhelming majority of buffs have focussed on offence.

Seriously, go through each buff right now and try and tell me which one made them worse on defence by focussing on an ability to specifically make them worse on defence.

P2099 was already a bad defender, his buff was designed for offence. Bishop was only made worse for defence because they removed a silly part of his kit anyway that killed you on offence, terrax already had his rock field, Ebony maw had his degen (an offensive as well as defensive ability) tuned up slightly, Joe Fixit had one small part of his kit added to make him a little more annoying on defence. But all of them had tune ups or abilities added to largely make them better on offence, the massive majority of their abilities from the buffs are offensive.

You can’t argue any of those were designed to make them worse on defence. What you’re seeing is by making champions better on offence, sometimes abilities are tuned or added that then make them better on defence. But for all of them, they are sufficiently better on offence that it really doesn’t matter to even get a little annoyed about champions being harder on defence, let alone think the program should stop because of it. If you could win awards for overreactions, I think your post would win it.
They didn't tune Maw's degen slightly. They tuned it through the roof.
Ironically still not to the level Kabam Broccoli initially made him to be.

Maw is underrated as a character.

I know, the timing is weird this time. But around this time we used to slowly get the announcements. The pacing has been varying past months, but revealing them two weeks ahead wouldn't be a big surprise

There’s still about 2 weeks left before this month’s EQ is over (it feels like forever!). So, we have some time.

Phoenix overhaul or/and, a brand new Sigil Jean Grey would be awesome.

I'd be quite happy with a Phoenix buff at some point. She's definitely on my list and not at all because I've got a naturally duped 6*.

I've got high hopes for Feb. So naturally I'm going to be disappointed in the end which mirrors every time I've opened a Login Crystal but there you go...

Remove that sigil part and stop promoting to them that Paywalling champions is a good thing, bad enough they done it with scarlet witch, how many hundreds did it cost to get her as a 6*? Many many more to dupe her.

Dark phoenix and Jean grey both need added to the game naturally.

As a community we need to realize that there isn’t a set schedule for when they announce things for the next month. Sometimes we get two weeks notice, sometimes it’s practically same day. There’s no pattern. And that’s okay! We’ll get the information when we get it.

If I had to guess, I’d say we’re likely to find out about next month’s champs during this week, shortly after the winner of the vote is announced. January is a fairly dry month in the Contest, so they’re probably just trying to string out exciting announcements.
Everybody just really really really wants that list with all of the Champions they have planned to be buffed for the year and the only thing that sucks is I'm pretty sure if it ever got out, it'll never be to anyone's satisfaction.
My list:

All the champs that need buffs, please buff.

Thanks!

My man Fluffy dropping knowledge. 😍
I also assume all the meme champs will get buffed eventually, so what order matters very little to me.
Just make the buffs good and let's keep it moving.

No. We have Phoenix. Make her what Phoenix is supposed to be. Why keep adding new champs? Make what we have amazing.

Agree with the paywall though.

Well, since I pay for Sigil anyway, it will be nice to have something extra, especially if it's a favorite character of mine. Weapon X 6* is also behind a paywell, but noone s complaining.

Whoever it is, I hope it makes some champion an instant AW attack option. Or elite boss. Maybe not the Mags treatment, but make it close!

Also, I would love to see a truly popular Marvel character become elite. Outside of Magneto, CapIW, or kinda Doom(he's somewhat popular for Fan4ishfans), I would love a very well known character become God tier. Quake? Ghost? Most people that play didn't even know those characters before this game.

Unfortunately Mike and some of the other developers have gone on record and saying that no upcoming buff should or would be on par what they did with Magneto. Although to be Fair, there have been plenty of Buffs where they didn't have to go that extensive in order to unlock a Champion's true potential.

Why would it cost hundreds? The sigil is only $10 a month and depending on your level of progression, you could have gotten her for the equivalent of $60 or maybe as much as $150.

@Shadowstrike agree. Hell, look at Diablo. He's insane now with his true potential unlocked. KP, Moleman, even YJ getting a massive utility buff.

I just want someone we all are familiar with becoming elite. A Cyclops, an AntMan, and OG champ, etc.

Yeah a tenner a month for how many months to get enough to buy a 6* variant twice, Hundreds involved, it's about that for the 5* variant, they still shouldn't be paywalling champs to that extent.

Nope weapon X was initially the reward for Legends runs, he was added to the gifting event, which isn't Paywalled, Padme got him for free from a seatin gift, I didn't pay anything over gifting and managed to get 120 GGC including 2 5* Kangs, so no he's not paywalled.

Actually you just reminded me that they said that Diablo raised the bar on how extensive a buff can go

I mean technically you're paying for it through potions and energy refills unless you're Brian Grant and you have a mountain of units and crystals in the stash. But they put the Legends program on hold for the time being so it's not really an issue anymore.
