**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.

Question: Is Ascension Much More than a Green Boost?

Serious question, and I haven’t had much time to dig deeper. But ascension appears to be 22% boost to attack and health. That’s +2% to a green boost.
Is there more?

I think it was from r2-r3 or r3-r4, but there was a controversy around it. 22% ain't bad in that regard.
a Rank6 if you will.

I suppose this is about as good as we should have expected, especially given the complexities of suggestions like adding the 6* mini-game to 5*. That’s a great idea, but I think it is well beyond the capabilities of the dev team.
One thing I would like to have seen is a slight bump in challenge rating for max ascended 6*. The difference between a CR of 210 vs. 150 seems pretty significant. If the appropriate comparison (per the Kabam blog) between an ascended 6* R5 is a 7* R3, it would have been nice to have some increase in CR that put an ascended 6* closer to its 7* counterpart.
My belief is that Ascension will extend the life of 6* a little longer, but not much. 7* are proliferating rapidly in MCoC, and I would expect to see nearly full BG decks of 7* by year end. That’s a pretty seismic shift—whether Ascension allows 6* to keep pace is anyone’s guess.
