This March, we present something different...
Hello Summoners!
This month’s Side Quest will be utilizing a bespoke Incursions game mode that can be completed solo or with a friend! We are excited to use this as a proof of concept for how we can use other game modes to contribute to monthly meta content! We’ll see you in…
Danger Room
Hank McCoy (Beast) is a genius and very good at his job. Some may argue he’s TOO good. Looking to improve the Danger Room, he’s also managed to “improve” other areas of The Contest! Regular Incursions have been temporarily replaced with DANGER ROOM INCURSIONS! Team up with a friend or go it alone to complete this month’s content!

New Hacks
Prowed Degeneration: When the Attacker lands the final hit of a Heavy Attack, they gain a 10% potency Prowess Buff for 10 seconds. During Special Attacks, all hits have a 20% chance per Prowess effect to inflict a Degeneration Debuff dealing 350% of Attack Rating as Direct Damage for 10 seconds. If the Champion has an equipped Relic, gain 2 Prowess effects instead.
Alternating Enhancement: If the Attacker ends a Combo differently than last used, they gain a 20% Prowess Buff for 12 seconds. When striking, the Attacker has a 10% chance per Prowess effect on them to be Passively Unblockable for their hit, this can trigger through Block. If the Attacking Champion has a Relic Equipped, double the chance to go Unblockable.
Armor Burst: The Attacker’s Basic Attacks have a 20% chance to grant them an 8 second Armor Up Buff, granting 30% Armor Rating. Special Attacks inflict a Burst of Direct Damage equal to 50% of the Attackers current Armor Rating. If the Attacker has a Relic equipped, the Damage becomes 100% of the Attacker’s Armor Rating.
Draining Degeneration: Knocking down the Opponent inflicts a Power Drain Debuff, draining 60% of a bar or Power over 7 seconds, plus an additional second for each Armor Up effect active on them. While this Debuff is active, any time the Defender is inflicted with a Power Burn, Drain, or Special Lock effect, inflict a Degen Debuff dealing Direct Damage over 15 seconds. If the Attacker has a Relic equipped, apply 3 Degeneration Debuffs instead.
All Out Attacks: Increase Attackers Ability Accuracy by a Flat 10% and increase the potency of all “Attack Enhancement” Hacks by 50%. If the Attacker has a Relic equipped, double the Potency of effects granted by this Hack.
All Out Effects: Attackers gain 10% increased Buff and Debuff Duration and increase the potency of all “Reinforcement” Hacks by 50%. If the Attacker has a Relic equipped, double the Potency of effects granted by this Hack.
Poisonous Truth: Attacks against Stunned Opponents have a 30% chance to apply a Poison Debuff equal to their Attack Rating for 8 seconds. While this Poison Debuff is active, the Attacker gains a True Damage Buff, ignoring the Defenders Resistances and Armor Rating. If the Attacker has a Relic equipped, instead gain a True Strike and True Sense Buff.
At the Ready: The Attacking Champion's Spirit Gauge starts the match filled. The Attacker gains an Unblockable Buff for 6 seconds on the last hit of their Striker Attack plus an additional second for each Damaging Debuff on the Opponent when this Buff is applied. The Spirit Gauge fills at double the rate when an Unblockable attack is landed.
Keep It Going: Every 10 hits in the Attackers Combo Meter applies an Armor Break Debuff on the Defender equal to 60% of their Attack Rating for 10 seconds. The Spirit Gauge fills at double the rate when striking an Opponent under the Effect of a Non-Damaging Debuff.

That sounds tedious honestly ...
That'll make it an easier pill to swallow.
Also i always have zero luck when it comes to these monthly crystals and have been cav for a few months now, I wanted domino from the current "shapes and sizes" crystals guess what? I keep getting 3 stars I know it's just RNG but damn is it annoying not being able to pull any 6* from these darn crystals oh well this month's look decent especially as I've wanted longshot for the longest time now so hopefully this is the month I pull him!
- this for real?
Hopefully it's the former!🤞
