**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 I guess no one is playing battlegrounds this season?

    I only played like first 2 weeks. After that just said “why bother? Bad rewards”

    I'm playing and I hate it. It used to be some kinda fun. But now since Kabam has turned it into AW, it's become unenjoyable.

    I've lost a lot of interest in it since I filled out my 6* roster. I make GC most seasons but I just don't feel like pushing this time.

    Sitting in D1 for over a week, just can't really be bothered, I might make an effort but I'm not upset if I don't, plus I have a million refills to burn from free crystals opened in necro.

    Might explore act 5 just for the hell of it.

    I think BG store buff will help.
    Right now only stuff I'm purchasing is victory shields and rank up stuff.

    Some 7*, titan buff would be cool, no we are not asking for 7r3 materials.

    You should buy shards instead so you can finally get Ægon and become THE Valiant

    Not much point when the rewards are not worth it.

    Yeah i stopped caring much for the grind after VT. Need better rewards to make it worth the GC stress

    I'm confused. What am I looking at?

    But also yes - I'm barely playing it because of the meta + rewards just not doing it for me.

    Gamma 3 and below still empty and we only have 6 days left.

    The rewards arent that good for people that just want milestones this season. Paired with the worst AI we've had in a long time regarding hoarding specials, and the meta that quite literally just gives them power every so often, it's just dancing around waiting for s special for 3 minutes, or eating a sp3, it's not fun. I hit GC, got two wins, went to gamma 1, haven't touched it since.

    I believe in next season no one will play bgs, polka dot power with power shield, such a limiting node

    Nah they will, that one isn't even close to being as bad as this one. Sure, very limiting but not as annoying as a nuke meta where the defender has power gain the whole fight.

    I, against my better judgement decided to play a game, just faced a guy that had 112 rating, I had 46. BG is dead or matchmaking is a mess.

    I was completely unexcited to push this season at all after last month's insane grind for Guillotine piece and solo event milestones, i simply felt burn out from bg's. Combine this with one of the worst metas that we have ever saw in GC/VC, that is amplified in frustrating experience by 100 with AI being inconsistent as hell....
    I can barely make myself play for objectives that reset each 2 days.

    Milestones hurt. Almost no one who can push to GC has a desire for more 6* shards. When 7* shards are part of milestones, it feels almost obligatory to do BGs.

    I’ve played the least since BGs started—sitting in Vibranium and I’ve actually forgotten to get the 48-hour objectives at least twice. I’ve also quit out of matchmaking a few times when it took too long.

    Something about the mode needs to change.

    Queue times in vibranium and GC can be a bit of a joke. I remember in Vibranium 1 I was waiting nearly 4 minutes a couple of times, but only 30 seconds others. I miss the earlier seasons where I got a match in sub 1 minute sometimes sub 10 seconds

    Process improvements would help. Waiting longer than, say, 60-90 seconds should be considered a default by the game mode and award a victory.

    What on earth were they thinking with GC meta?

    It makes no sense. No wonder hardly anyone is playing.
    The game is supposed to be fun.
