**WE ARE NO LONGER Temporarily Reverting Tier 1 War Ban System**
After further discussion, the game team has made the decision not make adjustements to the ban system.
The previously proposed fix would have resolved the issue for Summoners who are on the cusp of T1/T2 play, and negatively impacted Alliances more securely in T1. Instead, we recommend that cusp Alliances switch to Manual Placement to your members to place the allotted 5 Ban Champions limit there.
Apologies for the back and forth, and for any confusion.

We really need them to define root now.
Seems like it’s now a debuff that locks all champions in place and prevents defenders from throwing Sp1/2 but not Sp3.
/sarcasm
That’s clearly a joke, but this is a pretty widespread change. Maybe someone with CCP access can test in on Scytalis too and see what happens?
I like to help people
Would be interesting in how Galan is coded, as I remember early on there was the bug where he just kept gaining buffs as opposed to just a few, when he experienced these immune effects. Maybe the fix then is causing an issue now that there is a change to Root.
Root has had issues all along the way. Rintrah, for example. It's been known that he was taking no Damage. Even people pointing out that Root is bugged when they gave it the green light.
Listen, I empathize with the OP and I appreciate how passionate they are, but I do not agree with RDTs for bug fixes. I didn't the last times they gave them out for it, and I don't now.
They're for major intended changes to how a Champ is supposed to perform. There isn't any evidence, other than "That's how they worked." to support that. If it was a listed ability and it changed, fair enough. That's not what we have.
Kabam knew, they decided not to add it into the description, they decided to change it without communicating their intentions, and this is still technically a bugged ability since it doesn't match the Root description. This is not the fault of the players, and this is definitely not a non issue.
Perhaps a lack of communication, sure. I don't see notes in the Patch Notes. You benefitted from a bug for some time. Take it for what it is. I don't agree with giving Tickets. I don't make their decisions, though. So it's not up to me. I'm still not going to agree with it.
Just to be clear, the players are not the ones who benefitted from the bug, Kabam did. They sold an awful lot of Zemo cavs, sig stones, and rank up materials that were put in to him as a result of this "bug".
I am not claiming that it was intentional, I am pointing out that your argument that the players are the ones who benefitted from the "bug" is incorrect.
I’m just happy it’s keeping this thread at the top. It’s been fun diving in, testing, and speculating but Kabam could address all this in a few sentences.
