We are aware that the Twitch Drops campaign started late and that as a result most players did not receive most, or any, of the drops. We will make it right, and are currently looking into the possible options, please stay tuned.
Thank you for your patience

It would be great if in the AW placement options, there would be a way to be able to just do things the old way until this fiasco (at least from my alliance's perspective) is sorted out.
Add a “NEXT WAR ONLY” button (or conversely, a “PERSISTENT” button, although that word may not be typically understood by everyone, especially if you have to translate that into other languages, thus maybe the NEXT WAR ONLY which would be more clearly understood), which would let someone say whether their Defenders they are about to place would be just for next war, or would continue for all future wars unless changed.
@NeinoIII , above would address your concern if they implemented that.
Doesn’t prevent someone from saying “Persistent” though and then going away for a week.
**Thus another SUGGESTION, that Leadership should be given the ability to CHANGE members assigned to which BG's, or REMOVE them from a BG, etc.
Also Leadership needs to be able to place defenders onto map for defenders “joined” but not “placed” by people. Especially since 3 different options of Map Tier Difficulty possibilities, and people may only do that for 1 of them.
That has ALWAYS been an issue before (had gotten better, but still often times was inconsistent).
After all that yada…
Kabam, you’ve just bombed the alliance war. Well done. Why are you trying so hard to lose customers? Stop being too smart, be efficient instead. Please.
Literally , lately they had done so many good steps to avoid alliances being penalized by single players mistakes or habits :
- the undo button
- Energy refills
- In-game tag
- 6 hours boosts
- 20% green boosts in the sigil
- availability of (very expensive) boosts with units
- attempt to ease officers’ load of work
All of that work and improvements they spent time and money into do really have to end up being cancelled because they need to grab us some extra units ?
Do they really want to tell us developers could not work on a less stressing solutions or could not realize the damage they are making to so many non-US timezone people?
I don’t expect any reply from kabam for now because they are probably working on the new update’s bugs , which is also kinda comprehensible.
I just hope they don’t make that an excuse to turn a deaf ear on this topic.
Make them cost 1000-2000 units, those who need them will get them. It’ll save a lot of trouble for officers and members in competitive alliances
If the idea of the new setup was “place and forget”, it’s not even remotely that at this point. With locked masteries it would be possible
Can anyone explain what we’re missing or how this new system is beneficial?
You messed up.
Honestly, the new placement format seems to favor alliances with three Battlegroups only, which isn't ideal for us casual folks. It used to be simple: join the war, place your champs. Now, we have to worry if someone will be available for the next war. It's added extra complications and work.
Kabam, if you're listening, it would be awesome if there could be an option to keep using the old placement system until you sort out these issues. That would make the transition smoother for casual alliances like ours.
On another note, can we please have mastery loadouts specifically for Alliance War, like we do for Battlegrounds? It would save us time and make things more convenient.
That's all I wanted to say, which is sort of a summary of what most have already said, to be fair. Let's hope Kabam takes our feedback into account and makes some improvements.
As for placing or not, could be that some ppl placed but ONLY for the - or + 1 Tier Map level (not the CURRENT Tier Map).
Looking at summary BG roster from 3-BG main panel screens only shows if joined (or placed) for the CURRENT TIER. You would have to go in and Spectate that BG to be able to switch viewing to the +/- Tier Map views and see if they happened to place defenders in those instead.

still no war attack after placement timer ran down and anyone who has placed there champs are locked into aw last few days now because this issue, placement ended last night, woke up this morning thinking be attack Phase but nope, War is broken
AW matchmaking has been disabled until further notice (because it wasn’t working and starting attacks).
But, as of this month's update, AW defenders are NOT LOCKED out from other content anymore.
You can use them elsewhere.
1. Do the usual defender placement of how it's usually done (meaning put the defenders like always).
2. Next AW, MCOC AW AI system will automatically place the same defenders where they were placed in the previous AW. (Leader or officer can change if they so want to, and whatever new changes are made, this configuration will be saved and be used for the next AW).
3. Rinse and repeat until the end of the season.
4. If an alliance member leaves, his defenders will be automatically deleted from AW AI system and whoever is replacing him will put his defenders which will then be saved into the BG's defender's configuration. If nobody replaces him, the nodes his defenders are on will be left blank automatically.
I don't know why something this simple can't be integrated. Why all the unnecessary complexity?
1. Auto-placement option for players
2. Auto-sort option for leaders and officers, so you can move players to different bgs or consolidate in case you aren’t running 3bgs
2. Option for leaders to disable persistent placement for their alliance
3. Mastery loadouts, like we have in BG
