The game experienced a brief connectivity issue this morning. The team promptly fixed the issue and things are back to normal, thank you to everyone who passed along reports!

Kabam, This "Trade" Offer is a Complete Insult to Valiants!
Are you kidding us, Kabam? You expect us to trade ONE precious 6* Awakening Gem for ONE 7* Signature Stone? That’s not just a bad deal—it’s outright disrespectful to your player base.
Let’s break this down:
We get ONE 6* Awakening Gem a month. That’s ONE gem to awaken a 6* champion of our choice—something with real, game-changing value. And you’re telling us we should give that up for ONE measly 7* Signature Stone?! A stone that barely moves the needle on any 7* champion’s abilities?
Even if we sell every single gem we earn, which is ONE A MONTH, it takes an entire year of sacrificing gems just to add a small bump to ONE 7* champion's sig level. This “trade” is not only unfair, but it’s also laughably impractical.
What’s worse is the complete lack of respect for how much effort goes into earning those gems. Awakening Gems are rare and pivotal resources for advancing our rosters. Offering a 1:1 ratio is a slap in the face to anyone who’s spent time grinding and investing in the game.
Kabam, if you want to make this a real offer, the trade should be at least 10–15 Signature Stones per Awakening Gem. THAT would make sense and actually give players a reason to consider the exchange.
Right now, this "offer" is nothing but a joke. Do better. Respect your players.

If you still value your 6* AGs, then this isn't for you.
If you don't have a ton of 6* AGs, then this isn't for you.
It's very simple really. Crashed made it very clear who this store is for. There are a number of players who have over a hundred AGs. This is for those players. They have all the 6*'s duped, they have probably all their 7*'s duped and what is more important, is sig stones for prestige.
Just because something is available to Valiants, doesn't mean it's for every Valiant that's out there.
Kebem also thinks it's perfectly fine to trade one 6* gem for one 7* sig
Unfortunately Kebem needs to think more.

Doesn't make sense at all.
1:5 will be cool.
Everything is an insult, disrespect, slap in the face. You people are so fragile. There are much more important things to get upset about.
I still would recommend holding onto a few, incase they buff it or a champion you like you pull as a 6*, e.x they release 6* magik or quake you can awaken them
Any Valiant player can use the trade in. If it was catering to those people, only they would have it.
I only had 10 generic 6* awakening gems and i traded those all in as well as a couple skill and science.
They aren’t that “.valuable” to me because there isn’t any 6 star champ that i am really all that desperate or interested to awaken as i am much more leaning to 7 star rank ups and investing my resources into them.
Besides,..they aren’t all that hard for valiants to come by these days.
The idea that if Kabam happens to make a decision that does not appeal specifically to you, that means it is a terrible thing that was done TO you is laughable.
There is an entire world that exists out there more than 6 inches from the tip of your nose. Apparently it is shocking to many of you that some of the people who live in it might just possibly have different priorities than you do. But guess what, they get to have things that meet their needs too.
How are they catering to them? If anyrhing they are getting screwed more than you are if you consider the deal is bad ..
This is for Valiant only.
This is for Valiants that have no need for 6* AGs.
This is for Valiants who have 100+ 6* AGs.
This is not for Valiants who still have use for 7* AGs.
They are giving sigs because the people making the most of this trade in find sigs more useful as they have most or all 7*s duped.
Understand?
It's perfectly normal to get 1 signature stone crystal from playing 3 BG matches, right?
6* Awakening gems are much harder to get. Even if there is an overflow in your inventory, it would have taken years of collection. It's not like you get one daily.
That's where I feel the math doesn't add up. The same thing that you can get daily by casual playing, you have to trade in for something you only get through selected items. I'm not saying the idea is bad, it's a great initiative, but the implementation is potentially disastrous.
All I'm saying is, 1:1 seems like a rather absurd ratio. Now if you had a 1:5 ratio, that's a whole different story, it's balance.
I'm not asking for handouts, I'm asking for balance. This offer completely devalues 6* AGs if Kabam can call them equivalent to 1 measly signature stone. Trade offers aren't about empty gestures, they're about meaningful exchanges.
P.S. for God's sake, no one is accusing you of anything. I suggest you calm down 5 or 6 notches.
