The state of interception in AW is unreal. Please Kabam fix it asap.
If its no possible in reasonable delay, disable the protection for path 5

    I don't think asking nicely is going to get it done.

    Very constructive response. I've been playing MCOC for years, and this problem didn't exist before. I know how interceptions work.

    For your information, it's the defender who dives first and manages to intercept the attacker with... a medium attack! In other game modes, this never happens.
    Also sometimes, when the defender dives towards the attacker, they suddenly manage to perform a dexterity move and counter the attacker. It's completely crazy. Besides costing a lot of healing, it takes the fun out of the game.

    I'm not gonna ask for any change to what we have right now in AW. We'll just have to accept it and deal with it while they try to fix the damn issue. I just really hope they compensate us properly.

    I'm not usually one to rally for compensation, but they really need to get their sh*t together for this issue. This is a very genuine problem which has been going on for a while and has been costing players wins and fair share of units/ resources (especially in competetive game modes like AW and BGs).

    I've had it happen multiple times during war and bgs, costing me matches and resources to heal my champs back up. It's just ignorant to label this "skill issue" btw, real friendly of you mate. I KNOW that intercept should be landing, I've played this game for nearly 10 years. You can't just expect players to avoid using a key gameplay mechanic, which is even asked for specifically on some nodes.

    They've acknowledged the issue and how it has been affecting players, so I'm expecting them to compensate players properly when they get the fix out, not just a package of a few revives and those laughable flat hp based health potions. It's not just a matter of this single issue, but about restoring goodwill with what's been going on and how the community has been feeling lately (I don't want to beat the dead horse and create yet another post on this so I'm just gonna leave my thoughts here).

    If I understand Kabam’s communications properly, the fix should be live in the next update.

    I saw that post, I guessed I missed the part about the fix being in the next patch. That's good.

    The compensation for when he didn’t remove charges when you went back in? In the last 1%?

    They literally announced it was broken, man, some folks on this forum have deductive reasoning deficits, like clinical. Fascinating!

    So because it works for you it must be fine for everyone? There is a post by the game team that says intercepts are not working…

    So the problem is with medium intercepts from what I’ve seen. Why not just light intercept? It’s easier and more efficient.

    I do both, sometimes I find medium intercepting easier to perform based on the situation. However, now I’ve had to switch to mainly light intercepting. However, the burden of switching my play style shouldn’t be on me when the system is not working as intended. I shouldn’t have to stop performing a game mechanic when it used to work (semi) consistently. So I don’t see how it’s a skill issue

    As you said, medium has only been semi reliable for a while now, you should’ve already switched to mainly doing light intercepts. And the “Skill Issue” was for the creator of this post saying to remove the nodes of path 5 because he can’t hit a light intercept.

    Bro I just saw video of Grass where he dashed back and defender AI literally WALKED few distance then hit with light intercept, 2 times in same fight, that's correct 2.

    Why it WALKED? To cover up the distance needed so that AI light will connect.

    So now AI has either started to calculate on fly how many steps it need to spank players who are trying to do intercepts
    Or Kebem have tuned AI again.

    Because this WALK into light intercept wasn't happening before and there's no way AI just evolved on it's own or it did?

    Is Kebem waiting till their AI morbing into Ultron and inflict global catastrophe?
