Say Hello to King Groot (Deathless)!

Starting January 10th, you will receive the first of five pieces in your in-game mail. Additionally, the same day will mark the beginning of a challenge to get piece number two!

By unlocking the Paragon Gauntlet on the monthly Event Quest, you will have access to a Paragon Gauntlet Challenge Solo Objective to: Complete the Paragon Gauntlet (Event Quest) with only #Mercenary tagged Champions on your team and without using a choice node.

Completing this Challenge will earn you the second of five pieces!

Good luck, Summoners.

If we don’t complete the objective for the deathless piece in paragon gauntlet is this going to be one of those “We’ll offer it for units, but it’s gonna cost you” situations?

Yes.

We're also planning to discuss King Groot (Deathless) on the next livestream on February 2nd, so we'll have more details then!

Heck yes, my second favourite anthropomorphic tree character in the game!

I hope there are details on the kit

I’m quite excited that king groot was chosen as the next deathless champion. Great job Kabam! He’s already tanky and regens a lot so i can’t imagine what a deathless king groot can do and what other features he will entail!

I would definitely pull back on the expectations. I'm a fan of King Groot as well, but remember that the original King Groot's regen is locked behind his sig (with the exception of sp3), and we've got no idea how long it will take to awaken one of these deathless champs.

Without a significant change to his kit, I wouldn't expect the regen that OG King Groot has accessible.

Yes please… current precedent is reason for concern.

I hope the remaining 2 deathless champs are not SW, vision or Hyperion, cause it already defeats the purpose of hiding their identities. All the hype is for thanos for me now.

Does it still count if I use the choice node to swap out for another Merc tagged champ? I thought we had a challenge a while back where it did.

Whenever they explicitly state "without using a choice node" you can't use them. Gotta run the same team from the beginning through the end.

No... no choice node usage. Not even for another merc

EgyptOverseer · January 10

Can we swap Guillotine deathless pieces for KG deathless pieces?

ZAYZTER · January 10

Throughout these deathless challenges will there be any way to awaken the 7* versions or are we gonna have to use awakening gems once they come out?

Trojaneagle1000 · January 10

Expectations are low. Deathless Guilly is the UNBUFFED version of OG Guilly except that she deals degen instead of bleeds.
Deathless KG will be much more like the original kit before his buff.

Gonne · January 10

Can I still able to obtain guillotine 6*piece selling in the shop after the time countdown end? Because now I already have 2 pieces of them and expect to get 2 more intime but for the piece that buy with incersion I'm afraid not make it in time.

Hi Barcelona, that one ,the silhouette appears to be Nebula, yes. Behind is Hyperion and to the left is Red Hulk.

Deathless Nebula is my guess too!

Ghostboytjie · January 10

Deathless King groot is gonna be fun to have but 2 Questions @Kabam Jax.

1) Will he have the abilities of pre buff or post buff king groot. Or will his abilities be slightly different like Where deathless gully is degen instead of bleed?

2) Those other models are placeholders for other deathless champs. Please can we have a deathless kamala. Please PLEASE.

Ashacekar · January 10

Should have revealed it in livestream by doing who's that pokèmon animation. Do it for rest 2 though.

The 7* Piece is it or both 6* and 7*?

Since i m the Petyr who has a 6* Deathless Guillo and hunts 6* deathless pieces more (I skip challenging content like necro and guillo challenge), paragon gauntlet seems fairly easy for me to get the 2nd 7* piece of this new collection so had the above doubt.(Have 7* Domino and Platpool with various high ranked mercenaries)

Here's my pokèmon guesses, i think it's Deathless Hyperion and Deathless Saitama

@Kabam Jax does venompool count as mercenary champ? He does not get damage reduction in variant 8, but he don't have #mercenary tag.

Then no, he doesn't count as a mercenary champ. Pretty self explanatory.

Darkraw346 · January 10

May I suggest Deathless Psycho man with a new mode in his kit-Depression mode?

He don't get the damage reduction coz he's "pool" character. All variants of deadpool are the same, #mercenary or not
