EMERGENCY MAINTENANCE

There was an issue with an offer that sent out a surplus of Tier 7 Basic Catalysts.
While the Game Team investigates a way to remedy this issue, we will be putting the Game into Emergency Maintanance.

We do not currently have an estimate on how long this will take, however, we will let you know as soon as we know anything.

Thank you for your patience.

    This defense tactic is literally impossible… you can’t dex specials or they gain indestructible. You can’t block specials or they gain 15% of a bar of power. It’s better off to just let yourself die and start again over trying to remove these indestructible passives

    It is insane. I got stuck on a NF with Hazard Shift in war. It became impossible to remove the indestructible buffs at a rate faster than he would gain them, and so he didn’t even lose health in second form.

    Tbh it feels like the devs who develop Global nodes aren’t aware of game dynamics lately.

    Constructively speaking it seems that when a new global is designed champs abilities and pre-existing nodes aren’t taken into account.

    Some examples…

    VERY well said. This meta makes me rethink doing War at all. Sucks the fun out of it completely.

    it's so bad they've even lost touch with veteran war players with years of t1 experience. the sudden difficulty change is so snobby and elitist, like who is this even targeted to?

    It's a hard defense tactic but it's beatable....until you face off against Bullseye.

    Then it's a nightmare.

    Freaking ridiculous and they drop this on the weekend so they probably won’t fix it before the season starts

    Season starts in 11 days. I'd be surprised if it wasn't fixed by then.

    I'm just glad the bugs with the tactic were made apparent during the offseason and not the actual season.
    Crush/Sturdy was left a mess for an entire season, it still wasn't great last season. I'm not holding out hope, they keep trying out these fancy tactics that sound cool in principle but just suck any skill and fun out of the game.

    Can't wait to face an Adam warlock on one eye open hazard shift node.
    Dude !!! I am literally stuck on this node right now & came here to see how everyone else were dealing with this.

    Kabam thinks every alliance has a war planner officer beyond t5 wars. Its not true, not everyone has time to do so, but as said before, who cares about time anyway. The average allies will keep scoring like 60 deaths per BG and thats it

    I don't think it's about planning . The nodes are not doable even if u plan . There are tons of interactions where u cannot get the defender down.. it's a **** tactic what was not tested and thrown to us... What Kabam should have used as Attack Tactic Should say "Pay 5 Dollars to solo the defender " use that tactic for perfect war.

    Indeed; planning and exchanging paths for better match ups maybe make some fights better, but surely there are some that are pure bs

    The biggest problem is not just the difficulty, but the bug, passive prowless is not being exchanged for indestructible of the opponent

    "The tactic is not working as intended and the difficulty is lower than what we planned for so we will be revamping it." -Kabam probably

    Ya it’s beyond ridiculous that this could be tested and approved.

    I run path 9. There aren’t a lot of immunity options for the hazard shifts. Any plan to mitigate those?

    Same here - it's **** - like 4 attackers and half will probably be banned. Would like to see devs do every path with tactics to show us how reasonable they are before release.

    I’m just taking notes. One eye open ✅. Hazard shift ✅. Other pain nodes ✅. Just updated my champs go magic thief’s. Gonna get 50 kills this aw 😂

    Watch kabam take a few days to respond this and only fixing the bug about the indestructible not being removed and completely ignoring the other bad interactions, such as the unblockable nodes/champions

    Either kabam not learned their lesson or this is completely intentional as an attempt to drive more and more item usage in AW, when Crush was announced, kabam said they were going to bring back some older defense tactic and this current tactic is a copycat of Stubborn, which was also hated back in 2019-2020

    i'm concerned that kabam will keep this tactic the way it is for 2 months and the next tactic will be another one that was hated and just giving another name/champs tags
