That’s prolly why I’d don’t have an issue with t1a, don’t have that Antman. He just reiterated what we have been saying over the past 10 t1a threads that you've spammed your nonsense in.

And it sounds like your only use for ranking champs lays in AW defense as your attack teams are built out. So how is Alpha failing to keep up with your actual needs? The point potential of a 4* is slightly higher (about 30k in 6 hours vs 26kish in 6 hours) not much slower. For me personally I'd rather invest in 5*s because I don't have time to verse all my 5/50 4*s every 2 hours. At the end of the day it's about the long game. We have to assume that t2A will become very available at some point in the future. It may take a year or more, but at some point 4*'s will become completely pointless as we are already seeing. The lack of alphas is effecting my ability to rank up 5*s that will impact my attack teams. I recently pulled a 5* Hyperion and I had all the t2a, t4cc, t4b, and gold to rank him from 1/1 to 4/55 right when I pulled him. Of course I couldn't rank him up for almost 2 weeks because I needed 16 t1a...

After a certain level in this game, the only champs you should be ranking up are ones that are eventually r4 worthy at 5*. Don't bother ranking your 4*s past r3 (or even past r1) and don't rank up your 5*s past 1/25, cause they won't help you. Taking up all your 5*s to r2 or r3 is a waste if they're arena fodder anyway. Keep them at r1 level 25. Things to consider when ranking up: 1. Will it help in AW? 2. AQ? 3. Questing? If you're end-game most of the times the answer is no, so don't waste T1As ranking up arena fodder. Rank ups should be very top heavy focused. Every other champ can sit on the bench.

Damn! if only you were slightly conservative and mindful with your t1a instead of spending it at 4 a pop for a few thousand more arena points every 7 hours. You could’ve had that hype at 4/55 with in a week. But damn honestly you had to wait almost two weeks to bring a character to the highest level possible in the game? That’s nuts 2 weeks is a long time when you compare it to how long you’d be waiting for that 7 t4cc which would be in the magnitude of months rather than weeks. Wait no it is not, 2 weeks is nothing in comparison, pardon my nonsense.

What do you consider to be a stupid rank up? I took my 5* am to r3 over lots of potential 4* rank ups. Was that stupid? In the short run probably but in the long run definitely not. In my book any duped 5* takes priority for rank ups over any 4* unless it's a god tier 4*. Rank ups done for the sake of ranking 5* up. Example ranking spidergwen up because "muh 5* are future". I have a mate who does nothig but complain about t1a being non existant, yet he refuses to rank 4* and ranks 5* he will never use outside arena. Thats being stupid with your rank ups. The way I look at it, dupe 5* shouldnt necasarrily take precedence over a better 4*. Example, you dupe 5* collosus. Who takes precedence, him or 4* iceman? Him or 4* x23? Obviously resources would get better practical use out of iceman or x23 over collosus. Why I want to see rosters is because I fully believe half the people complaining about no t1a are doing the opposite and choosing 5* dupe collosus over 4* iceman/ x23, even though collosus has no practical use to them. Their purposefully choosing to use 10 alpha over 3 because "muh 5* are future*. Its a self inflicted shortage. Obviously doesnt apply to every single person, but again Im willing to bet over half are. Different situations will warrant different choices for rosters. Myself, I get 1 alpha from alliance event weekly and buy 2 from glory for a grand total of 3 a week. I dont do alpha arena. Ones from eq are bonus, so 4 extra a month. Ive never had a shortage of alpha, always have enough to rank up a new champ. I have 2 r4 5*, 3 r3 5*, 4 r2 5* and 7 r1 5*. I have 14 r5, 9 r4 4* and over 50 r3. My personal bottleneck is gold, but thats 100% self inflicted because i dont play tons of arena. I actually have antman 5* at r3 myself as well. Used on defense so it had purpose. Hes gaining even more purpose with the Mordo nerf for those who still get messed up by him. I dont consider a rank up done with purpose behind it stupid, but i do consider ones done, again, for purpose of "muh 5* are future" stupid. Especially if you will never use that champ outside arena. Im not trying to sound condescending or be a **** like some folks, but this forum often has trouble applying logic to situations and this is definitely one of them. Pretty well written but I don't agree with your logic. For me, ranking up 4*'s is basically pointless unless (as I said previously) it's a god tier 4*. In choosing to rank up a champ there are basically 5 total uses for any champ: arena, AQ, AW attack, AW def, and questing. So if I have a choice between a 5* and a 4* I have to consider all those areas of the game. Arena: 5*s will always be better. AQ: already use 2 r4 5*s in AQ attack and no 4* is going to replace them AW attack: use 1 r4 5* and I have blade, GP, and iceman at 5/50 to round out that team. No current 4* is going to replace any of those. AW def: 5*s will always be better here as well because they can eventually be ranked up higher and have a higher PI. questing: 5*s win out again because they can be ranked up higher. So to answer your question, if I had the choice to rank up a dupe 5* colossus or 4* x-23 (I already have a 5/50 iceman) then I would choose colossus every time. x-23 would not benefit me in any area of the game. At least colossus would help me out in the arena more and eventually I could potentially rank him up higher and stick him on defense.

If you follow the community and listen to those "pandering panderers" as you put it, you would know that everyone is talking about the t1a shortage. If everyone is posting about it, making podcasts about it and making videos about it then I am extremely confident that there are thousands of people suffering from the t1a shortage. But to WWII we are all "out of touch with reality".

But to WWII we are all "out of touch with reality". How does people talking about t1a mean there is objectively a shortage, especially in relation to the rate you have been able to rank up champions in the past with other bottlenecks? It means people are talking about t1a. That’s all, people are talking about it. There is no objective shortage. If it wasn’t for my dumb ass there would be much less discussion here. Do you think Seatin truly has a problem not r3ing his 5* ant man? He could do the same with his 4( for less alpha) if he wanted an ant man at that power level but he refuses to cause “muh 5* are future”. Did you not pick up on the satire? I mean maybe he’s changed his mind and he’s no longer garbage tier and unworthy of consideration. Yeah Seatin’s taking the piss. His proposals make t1a farmable and more than double the intake. It Is so over the top it has it has to be satire. But don’t forget to like the video for more alphas...and comment on the video. Did you watch DDD’s video? 5* at this time are a bad investment. Podcasts? I don’t follow slycem so maybe he’s talked about it. but yeah I’d expect someone who drops thousands on crystals to be a little short on materials to rank champs at that rate of acquisition. People want to rank 5s at the rate the can passively rank their 3s. Get real.
