Potential Delay to v44.1 Launch

We are currently working through some issues that may affect the release window of v44.1. This means that the update may not release on Monday as it usually does. We are working to resolve the issue holding us up as quickly as possible, but will keep you all updated, especially if the delay results in any changes to the content release schedule.

Cold Snap Immunity

How is Memphisto the only champ immune to Coldsnap? Red Hulk and Ghost Rider should definitely also be immune. It feels a lot like they use these sort of techniques to make players spend a ton on one specific character.

    I am thinking that whenever a new debuff is created, there won't be any champ to deal with it. After a while, a new champ added may have an attribute to negate the new debuff. Hopefully, after many more new champs, there are adequate counters.

    I suppose it is such a big problem now (it was a problem too when Iceman appeared) because of the buff tiles on Ice Phoenix.

    First Ghost Rider has Hellfire which is way different from "Earth Fire". I think Red Hulk should quicken Coldsnap,but not fully get rid of it. Pretty much shortening Coldsnap

    Ghostrider should be able to shrugg it off quicker than usual maybe not full immune because he already has a lot of utilities.

    Big picture: this is Marvel universe where character and ability interactions are kind of essential :).

    Whenever a brand new debuff / ability / efffect is insteoduces, it should be standard practice to reviview the champ roster and update common sense interactions. Roster isn’t that big really, ~120 champs or so.

    That's not what the thread is about. Although it is probably brought up because of that quest, but op was generally speaking of coldsnap.

    It has good timing for it, but yeah I guess you’re right.

    I do wish they added more immunities for this and a couple other debuffs though.

    Yeah, healblock node makes that an issue in this Ice Phoenix situation.

    IMIW is also immune when armor is active, and he starts the fight with one, so BOOM. Also immune to bleed as well (read bios people)

    Corvus is immune to coldsnap too as long as you don't get knocked down by heavy or specials

    To be fair, Iceman not being immune to coldsnap isn't completely unprecedented. The fact that Iceman has one of the better health stats in the game, and that his attack isn't anything extraordinary, means that if he was immune to cold, a fight between two Icemans (Icemen?) would go on much longer than it should. Not long as in ten minutes long, but still boringly long. It's like Groot against Groot, although less extreme.

    Like this guy said. Immunity isn't the only answer.. Even regen champs can work. Just don't get coldsnapped again

    Loki should have cold immunity, he is a son of a frost giant and frost giants live on a Ice world.
