**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.

So here’s an action item, increase the amount of 7* shards, you could even remove the small amount of r3 materials if you’d like. What you’ve said doesn’t make sense because just allowing us to accumulate more 7*s will not bring on 8*s any sooner, you are doing it right by slowing down the progression of ranking up 7*s and I hope we don’t see any r4s for a while, but just letting people get more 7*s won’t do that.
Another action item, you could have the crystals be different for each progression level if you’re worried about low level players getting too much good stuff too early.
And the last one, the solo events should also be tied to progression levels so the end game players get the rewards they actually want.
Hopefully we see some change, because with everyone hating the rewards, it’s very likely this years banquet event will bring noticeably less income. Unless the cash offers are where all the 7* stuff will be at, which could somewhat redeem this, but would be sad to see.
If you could at least reply to this so I know it was seen and if any of these are possibly being taken into consideration that would be great.
And “the rewards are better” is not a reasonable answer… because they have been better every year … maybe I’m just asking from the vacuum
One thing I'd like to add about your last sentence, I hope they don't take this literally and use those rewards for next year cause they will be out of touch once again. Being one year behind on the meta just like they are one year behind this year.
3-4 gem or 2/3 full catalysts on alliance and solo event
like bro the economy of the game has changed so much since last years banquet last years banquet were legit giving out the firstrank 5 6 stars
and now there’s people with 30 r5 6 stars, I’m paragon and I only have 2 r5 6 stars like I’d much rather more r5s and r4s then fragments of T6Basics and T3Alpha (i just turned paragon last month) and i whaled out on cyber weekend which was really account improvingps. if it feels like giving lower level players these resources might break the game just do what we had with the legend event crystals or weekly crystals where some rewards require you to be paragon or valiant to get.
hope this get taken into consideration as if the rewards stay the way they are i feel like most people wont bother with the banquet even and just keep units for July 4th or doing necropolis 100%.

5 - Alliance Event
What r3 material are you saying btw that tier 3 alpha and tier 6 basis lolss are you for serious yes that t6cc is something but if you reallly saying that 7* r3 stuff then it should be atleassssst 15k to 25k fragments of t4 alpha that was a really something.
Many player completely disregarded or were unaware of that announcement. Players were pushing the Banquet as a method to obtain a rank 3 7*. The leaked Banquet crystal probably cemented in some players minds the Banquet would present rank 3 material at a cost less than Cyber Week.
The team was clear that Necro or Necro+BF/CM were the sole paths to Valiant until further content gets released. It simply undermines credibility to continue beating that straw man as if it is the central gripe about Banquet. It isn’t.

Restore the points system from last year in regards to earning points by buying consumables (cores, revives, potions, etc)... That way players at higher progression (upper paragon/valiant) who do not benefit as much from the GBCs can still feel included during the event when they spend units towards exploring necropolis.
If not, please can u justify the reasoning for removing the points earned for consumables purchases? @Kabam Miike
I won't even start on the ranked rewards above the top 1% is basically the same as last year's, + the additional 7* shards if there is any. If I end up the same as last year, u will receive the same r2-3 gem as last year, but it's value has become basically irrelevant, compared to last year.
You mentioned not wanting to burn through 7*s in a year. Sure, but I remember when 7*s were introduced many player said it's really soon, having basically just a few r4s and maybe 1 R5 from EOP. And since 7*s are that much stronger than ranked 6*, players quickly dropped ranking 6*s and started focusing on 7*s, apart from the obvious necessities. If we wouldn't have r4-5 gems, people would barely have 6r5 champs. And since new champs are immediately available as 7* from feat paragon crystals, champs like herc or doom or kitty will soon lost their 6r5 values, because they will have replacements.
And a T6 Class selector (even a 50% one) should have been included in the alliance milestones
That’s my 2c worth
