    Nerfing Blade after all of those 5 Star R5 rank ups? Good thing he is good against Mephisto - because there will be hell to pay.

    After The Blade 5* Crystal is released he will be the most widely owned Top tier player in the game. It’s not even a question that new content and new champ releases will be created with that in mind. If Blade allows players to finish content too easily (cheaply). They might give him a few weeks before they start adjusting him. I don’t have Blade but I’ve had my favorite champs nerfed. It totally sucks I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.

    So assuming blade hasn't broken war completely what exactly would be suggested to shut down the Blade Sparky and GR trio? Mystic Wars was definitely better than 3x100% easy mode no challenge wars. There is nothing that can stop that trio. Just my personal opinion but a game that offers no challenge is stupid.

    Max diversity and don’t die once?

    Mystic wars was dogshit. It made kabam less money from people giving up and was singlehandedly responsible for AW swapping. Good riddance

    Let’s nerf Stark Spidey/Voodoo/AA/Iceman/GR well we at it too. No champs should do above average damage. Stark Spidey is countered by cosmic champs/ Voodoo is mediocre against poison immune/ AA is hampered by bleed or poison immune and downright horrible against double immune/ Iceman gets owned by the god tier tech damage dealers (SL & Starky/ Blade gets owned by Cable or Bleed immune champs. He doesn’t need nor will he get a nerf.

    People are just jealous and pissed off there over priced MD mystic defenders now have a counter and if they don’t have Blade and have to die on those BS mystic defenders everyone else should too. If anything don’t nerf blade nerf Kabam **** RNG fiesta crystals.

    I totally understand we need a counter to the mystic wars but why a skill class character when science is supposed to trump mystic in this game. I know it doesn’t have to be science but would be nice to get some good science champs that can handle mystics well not just with a hulk smash lol.

    Listen guys kabam said they are not making any changes on blade so let’s STFU about it, he is far from OP. I die all the time with blade 5/65 1k plus hits on SL LOL and still can’t kill SL solo

    Enter Blade. Now let's face it. The goal of most everyone in the community is to 100% all content as cheaply as possible right? So instead of applauding someone's luck or tenacity (by saving shards) in obtaining a character such as Blade, people call for a nerf of the character. I also wouldn't doubt that these are the same people who are the most vocal about the "unfairly overpowered money pit champs". You know who you are. Acting this way only allows Kabam to line their coffers by giving them a reason to take away our means of not spending as much. I mean think about it, who are you really helping by saying a character should be nerfed? Your AW defenders? You must know by now that AW is another money pit for Kabam.

    Players can ask for nerfs all they want. They have as much ability to make a nerf happen as they do to make a buff happen. Asking for nerfs will probably anger other players, but has no actual effect on causing nerfs.

    If Blade is as overpowered as 11.x Strange or SW, the devs will by definition see that in their datamining reports, because that's how they define overpowered. Not based on one person's opinion, whether that is a player or even a developer. And if he does, they will do what they did with those characters. They will try to make content that levels the playing field between Blade and other high tier champions. They will probably tweak Blade's abilities in areas where there is reasonable justification - his interaction with nodes, for example. They may try to add counters to Blade in newer champions that other players can use on defense and they can use in newer content. And if all of that fails, as it did with SW, then and only then are they likely to nerf Blade.

    For all of that to happen first, I wouldn't expect to see anything happen to Blade until 2019.

    If you want to get Blade nerfed, don't ask for Blade to be nerfed. Use him everywhere, and convince as many players as possible to use him everywhere, whether you need him or not, and play him as well as you can so it looks like he's indestructible. This will work, if you convince a majority of the entire playerbase to join you. If you want to prevent Blade from being nerfed don't ask Blade to not be nerfed and don't bother shouting down players who do ask. Just refrain from playing him except where you think he is really necessary, don't just use him indiscriminately everywhere, occasionally die with him when you can get away with it, and figure out how to get thousands of other players to join you. Good luck either way.

    That's really the only influence we have over who gets buffed and who gets nerfed. Our gameplay, and how useless or dominating any particular champion appears when we play them, and how often we play them collectively, across the entire playerbase. SW, DS, Thor? They didn't *look* overpowered. We *made* them look overpowered by playing them literally everywhere and dominating the game when we did, and when I say we, I don't just mean the best players in the game, I mean the guy that started playing yesterday and got the lucky 3* SW drops and was promptly told to clear RoL with her. *That's* what got her nerfed. Not the people asking for a nerf. They were completely irrelevant.

    If this is correct (and I think it is) then we are screwed. It's only possible to have one 5/65 right now and naturally many, myself included, have ranked Blade. Being 5/65 makes him the strongest champ in many rosters which will make him used exclusively on lots of content. Personally I think he's fantastic though not in the pre 12.0 SW category but it would seem that the introduction of 5/65 champs will skew the data.

    Wait a couple weeks.

    Science mystic war destroyers are coming soon.
