Of course as well, just in time for the giting event 2.0. Just ... no.

Yet none of it comes till next year 🙄

We'll be fighting 7* in quests from Nov. Does that imply a Thronebreaker difficulty for event quest on the cards ?

Nah, we can start collecting before that

The ascension thing sounds intriguing 👀

Deacon · September 2022

i'd rather an ascension system than a new rarity so soon. what content exactly would make it even necessary? there's no 6 star rank 5 champs anytime soon so this makes little sense to go for a new rarity.

Pascals001 · September 2022

For 7* Shards and Then rank up materials.

SpideyFunko · September 2022

why are seven stars a thing? they should not be a thing at all

Dark_hoods · September 2022

with us fighting 7 stars in november, does this mean a new difficulty for EQ and side quest? a new chapter in act 8 perhaps?

The end of MCOC is coming soon

I wouldn't say it's the end
Many players will leave but the whales will continue
Many new players will join as well & for those new players all this will not feel as drastic as it does for us
Also new progressions means more money for Kabam
And the only way for the game to die is when money stops flowing to them which isn't gonna happen anytime soon

Malreck04 · September 2022

Oh wow this is **** up. Is this what gifting will be about this year? 7 stars?

Garlo · September 2022

7* in spring 2023 is too fast and horrible idea.

I hope he reads all the comments and pays attention to the community. 7* adding is a TERRIBLE idea.

AMS94 · September 2022

The successful way for Ascension should've been to ascend ur 6* into 7* champs
Another rank after R5 6* to make the champ a R1 7*
But I know u guys will never do that & I also know why

Khellendros138 · September 2022

Not happy to see that something that will likely be heavily monetized will be giving people an edge over others. Hated the idea of relics since first announced. This game does not need that, only serve to widen the gap for ftp and the whales, and to add an extra layer of nonsense and confusion.

Buttehrs · September 2022

So, how much is that 7* OG Vision gonna cost us in units this time?

Collecting. That's it. All we're going to get is some shards from duping 6*'s, Any and all dupes. What does that have to do with gifting?

AbuBakar_009 · September 2022

7* champions is a horrible idea for future of the game.

How do the 2 connect? The blog says you'll get 7* shards from duping 6*'s. Hows that any different than what's happening now?

They didn't say spring. They just said 2023.

Edit: I missed the spring part of the blog. Thanks @SpideyFunko I stand corrected.

Searmenis · September 2022

When 7 stars get actually introduced, can we also have a Quality thing, where you can box your 1, 2 and 3 stars in storage somewhere?

tfdrp2 · September 2022

Add whatever you want to the game, it has to continue to grow or be stagnant. I'm somewhat excited about the relics and ascension. I'll consider whether or not I like the new additions only if you can go through 2 months of new content being entered into the contest w/o bugs. If not, then I fully expect all the new additions to just cause more issues. I won't even ask about fixing the dropped inputs, etc. I think I have given up on that.

KyrieRed · September 2022

I think they should focus on the ascension mechanic first, and honestly if kabam is thinking about introducing 7* why not give us the option to rank up rarity as well, 4* be able to rank up to 6* for example.

Rohit_316 · September 2022

With 7 stars being introduced so early , why do i have a feeling that we will see our 1st 6* r5 in December Gifting 2.0

TC1 · September 2022

I’m sure we always knew 7*s were coming, which is fine. Relic and Ascension however I am not a fan of. I’ve seen similar systems input into other mobile games( Netmarbles 7DS) and it failed badly. I could also imagine the pay wall created here. IMO the whole point of a 6* and now 7* was to get the ascended version of your champ to utilize them better.

Red_Mana · September 2022

I would rather MCOC develop an entirely new game with an engine that isn't broken and have to start everything all over rather than start collecting 7*s.

becauseicant · September 2022

Two Questions:
1. Ascension doesn't turn our 6* into a 7* correct? From the post it sounds like it just powers up the 6* but won't actually "Ascend" them to the next star rarity, which IMO is a huge missed opportunity to remove the blow of having to start collecting a whole new set of champs.

2. Is the 7* pool going to be limited early on where almost all the champs are "average" or below with only a few good pulls, like the 6* pool was initially? The ramp up to having useful 6* being accessible took way to long. For months on end the majority of 6* pulls were useless, please don't repeat that mistake.

In november update

Badass84 · September 2022

So, Battleground, Relics and 7* - is this an episode of "how to ruin something very fast?"

I remember the shitstorm when 6*-shards were available before there was a 5*R5-possibility and Kabam said, that this was a huge mistake and that this will never happen again. And now?
No R5 6* possible and hey what is announced? 7*... fool me ones, shame on you, fool me twice...

Who do you think is really looking forward for another grinding for worthy Champs and Dupes and Sigs? No one.

Besides the fact that Kabam said, that there will be no 7* if feel very upset now. Playing from the start and really loving this game, but the way it goes. No, big No.

gash228 · September 2022

Personally I wouldn't even conceive of adding 7-stars before the first 100 6* rank 5 appear in game. And we're at least 9 months away from that. So the absolute earliest date I believe would be appropriate is Fall 2023. Preferable date for me would be the 9th anniversary in December, not Spring. Although given Kabam's promise record...
