At the end of the day, the game isn’t ready for 7 Star Hulkling, Hercules, or Cosmic Ghost Rider - and we didn’t feel like any other yet to be released Cosmic was in the right spot for this Event. There was a period of time we discussed adding Carnage to the Crystal so there would be one Champion per class.
Would that have made this event better?
Ultimately, I felt very strongly against putting an objectively less than desirable Champion in this Crystal, and creating the possibility of a lesser experience for Players opening 1-2 Crystals, simply to have one Champion per Class - so I pushed pretty hard against that.
The way I see it, is that this keeps the Crystal loaded with Champions at the top of their Class for players engaging lightly in the event, while guaranteeing one of the 6 for those going all the way to the end - on top of the Selector that gives a copy of one of the other 5 - creating a much better chance to walk away with all 6 Champions.
I don’t understand. Archangel was a very strong character and limited as a 5* until mid-late 2020. You know who was also around by 2020? Apoc, CGR, Crossbones, Dr. Doom, Domino, Human Torch and more!
If you’re saying the game is not ready for 7* Hulkling, it feels like you’re saying the game is not ready until a new 7* Cosmic Powerhouse is around to overshadow Hulkling the same way Herc overshadowed a lot of champions for a while. But guess what? You guys didn’t like how Herc negatively affected the way you made content. The cherry on top of this? Watch you guys add Hulkling in when r5 or even r6 are available, then come talk to us about “the game is not ready for Hulkling”

Why isn't the game ready ? Because they are attackers ? Yet your happy with a 'balanced' serpant ? Herc I 100% agree with as he's a cheat for story content, but the other 2 we are 100% ready for. Tigra is probably faster than the pair of them in the right hands. I'm not even complaining I dont mind who's in the pool, I would just love to know why you think the game isn't ready.
Agreed I've no idea why they had to go and ruin it like this, and on top of this pat themselves on the back live on stream saying "oh yeah we did a good job cause nobody guessed it which was surprising"... Wdym surprising? Is it surprising people didn't think you'd make a bad decision? Lol you'd have to be pretty dense to hype an event up this much then go ahead and release a completely different champ than what people were expecting based on how the event was presented to us, and on top of that make her a meta defender and lock her behind a huge pay wall. I would've taken a buffed Groot a million times over this, hope they'll learn from this (not the first time so here goes nothing).
You're just salty all your predictions failed
/s
But for real, you can't expect them to add the champs people expect AFTER they've already decided on who the champion will be.
Not to mention it's not Kabam's fault people made up their own expectations about the event based on a tease that didn't support any of the things players decided the event was.
Not really salty, just annoyed that they hyped it up so much only to throw a curveball towards the end, you can't tell me they didn't know people would be expecting Hulkling or CGR after every other champ was revealed. This was supposed to be Omega Days 2.0 but better with powerful champs that already exist as 6* based on how they presented it, and it's not. If you think that's being salty good for you I guess lol whatever helps you sleep at night pal.

Couldn't you guys just have buffed Groot or another cosmic and added them to the crystal? I am not even kidding, I got excited when I saw Groot and I thought to myself "surprise buff" but then you hit us with the "no it's Dark Phoenix" which left me completely unfazed tbh I couldn't care less about spending money to get her.
So you only want a 16.67% chance to get a champ you want as opposed to a 20% chance you just wabt them to add a cosmic champ just to add one yeah no i rather have my 20% chance and leave it at that

Wasn't Omega Days the first? Doesn't Kabam usually make some changes to any event that happens if it has not been established for a long time? You can't blame them for people making up scenarios .
Especially when we have people who even used a mistake they made in a poll as proof of a champion. Oh and don't get me started with the Octopus based on Crashed's (?) comment.There was nothing they could do except just reveal Phoenix in the beginning itself.
And for those expecting Annihilus and Thor, Dark Phoenix is a way better option.
Honestly how is cosmic ghost rider and hulkling too powerful as 7* we got champions that out power them defensively like serpent, bullseye, and enchantress. I think the power balance has shifted way to far to defense its very unbalanced currently
Kabam Rex said we are not ready for CGR.. hulkling or Hercules as a 7* but Tigra is very powerful also. Anyone that really know how to play with Tigra will nuke almost every defender in Battlegrounds.

Yes if that champ had been Hulkling or CGR or literally any cosmic if it had been a surprise buff, absolutely.

The spring cleaning event was exactly the same as last year but with different names, so yes I expected the same only with powerful champs that are already 6*.
I can guarantee you not a single soul on these forums expected Phoenix you're just sucking them off at this point, get well soon bud.
I didn't say it wasn't, I simply said I'm disappointed and I agree with op. Don't like it? Agree to disagree and move on lol.
Last year was such a good year for "champion-chase" events. All of the deathless and their dupes were available by doing high-end content. This year it feels like it was flipped upside down completely. Dark Phoenix is put behind a serious paywall. Lumatrix is barely available as FTP, not to mention his dupe. Already worried for the other Eidols. Magik apparently getting put behind radiance for god knows how much.
It's so sad to see.
The way they implemented stark spidey, masacre, and spidey 2099 was perfect. Extremely hard to get but can be actually be earned through playing the game. And if you’re a whale you could still just blast through the content with units to get them. Now, I want red guardian more than any other champion, and have no way to ever get him through just playing the game.
Except that Kabam literally just gave everyone a free 6* Red Guardian. So what you mean isn't that you can't have your favorite champion. What you mean is: you can't have your favorite champion for free at the highest rarity as quickly as other people who give Kabam money to run the game.
You’re purposely missing my point so you can be snarky at me. 1st, Im at the top of the competitive game and six stars are irrelevant. I don’t get to use him anymore, which is sad to me. 2nd, I don’t want him for free, I want to EARN him. I literally listed an example of 7 stars that you had to complete the hardest challenges in the game to unlock. It took me MONTHS to grind out resources, to EARN them. I was not “given” them for “free”. I did not get them “quickly” whatsoever. But I saw that I could get them and set out to do so as a goal. I’d be completely fine doing the same for red guardian. But that’s not possible because of how kabam released him, and it sucks. This isn’t how a game should be. Anyone who says otherwise has lost sight of that.

You have lost sight of how games work now especially mobile games this is a mobile game 101 you have a champion the community wants at the highest rarity you monitize him and make 400 plus usd

Points make sense, and Carnage certainly wouldn't have been the greatest choice.
But in hindsight, why didn't you guys just put galan in the crystal and put someone else in the titan instead of him?
If you needed skill options, who could've taken Lumatrix's place, you have Zemo, Stealthy and Valk sitting there.
Even then, there's plenty of other choices who could've been the titan champ instead of Galan. Toad, Nimrod, Viv Vision, Black Widow (Claire Voyant), Cassie Lang, etc, are all choices that could've taken that titan slot, while keeping Galan for the cosmic choice for HoF.
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy Galan is in the titan, since I won't need to spend a dime to hopefully get him from there, but, it ultimately just seemed a bit illogical to put him in it while not having a great choice for the cosmic rep in HoF.
Honestly how is cosmic ghost rider and hulkling too powerful as 7* we got champions that out power them defensively like serpent, bullseye, and enchantress. I think the power balance has shifted way to far to defense its very unbalanced currently
All 3 of those champions are defenders that people are used to fighting, not nuke attackers that also have defensive potential without a counter

Because they needed a cosmic for the titan pool and now galan will be available for ftp
Ahmynuts: It’s a massive hit and miss but I’m still spending $1000 worth of units to get Dark Phoenix.
Kabam: All is going according to plan.
If you read the post. The swing and miss was the presentation, communication, and mismanagement of community expectations. The event as it will be in the game I'm pretty much fine with. Im still teetering on whether or not I'll dump all the units i have to get dark phoenix or not but I'll dump enough to get the other 5 that im excited about

Again, the way it was presented everyone assumed all champs in the crystal would be champs who already existed as 6*, the way they worded and presented everything came off that way. Then, not only did they add a completely new one nobody knows anything about, they also removed her from the crystal and locked her behind a pay wall, this isn't about expectations alone it's how they presented the whole thing and then threw a big curveball.

Tigra is probably faster than the pair of them in the right hands. I'm not even complaining I dont mind who's in the pool, I would just love to know why you think the game isn't ready.
Agreed I've no idea why they had to go and ruin it like this, and on top of this pat themselves on the back live on stream saying "oh yeah we did a good job cause nobody guessed it which was surprising"... Wdym surprising? Is it surprising people didn't think you'd make a bad decision? Lol you'd have to be pretty dense to hype an event up this much then go ahead and release a completely different champ than what people were expecting based on how the event was presented to us, and on top of that make her a meta defender and lock her behind a huge pay wall. I would've taken a buffed Groot a million times over this, hope they'll learn from this (not the first time so here goes nothing).
You're just salty all your predictions failed
/s
But for real, you can't expect them to add the champs people expect AFTER they've already decided on who the champion will be.
Not to mention it's not Kabam's fault people made up their own expectations about the event based on a tease that didn't support any of the things players decided the event was.
Not really salty, just annoyed that they hyped it up so much only to throw a curveball towards the end, you can't tell me they didn't know people would be expecting Hulkling or CGR after every other champ was revealed. This was supposed to be Omega Days 2.0 but better with powerful champs that already exist as 6* based on how they presented it, and it's not. If you think that's being salty good for you I guess lol whatever helps you sleep at night pal.
It called your own expectations your had put it you self that it would be somebody els while there didn’t said how it be you had put your expectations to hige now that is shattering you complaining
Again, the way it was presented everyone assumed all champs in the crystal would be champs who already existed as 6*, the way they worded and presented everything came off that way. Then, not only did they add a completely new one nobody knows anything about, they also removed her from the crystal and locked her behind a pay wall, this isn't about expectations alone it's how they presented the whole thing and then threw a big curveball.
Thanks MuayThaiMike, Happy carnage is not in the crystal. The other three were not even in the conversation over there in the office. Keep sulking lmfao.
At the end of the day, the game isn’t ready for 7 Star Hulkling, Hercules, or Cosmic Ghost Rider - and we didn’t feel like any other yet to be released Cosmic was in the right spot for this Event. There was a period of time we discussed adding Carnage to the Crystal so there would be one Champion per class.
Would that have made this event better?
Ultimately, I felt very strongly against putting an objectively less than desirable Champion in this Crystal, and creating the possibility of a lesser experience for Players opening 1-2 Crystals, simply to have one Champion per Class - so I pushed pretty hard against that.

Entering year 3 of 7* champs - when will the game be ready? We’re approaching a point where you’ll soon just have bangers and trash that’s left as 6*.
After reading the defensive abilities of dark phoenix, absolutely no champ is too strong for 7* rarity current magik included. Pretty much perma safeguard but you cant use dots ? Then you get nova flamed which no one is immune to baring iceman, then you want to get rid of the safeguard, lol think again it comes back as a passive. Perma ban champion right there

Sometimes stop assuming things would help to. It an unfortunate how it got presented yes but. My point it making assumptions is bad

Or just don't go "we're releasing one powerful champ from each class as a 7*" then proceed to reveal the first five who are currently 6* only for the final one to be a completely brand new champ that wasn't a 6* when most people were by this point expecting Hulkling or CGR for obvious reasons (the previous five were 6* prior to this event and last year's Omega Days also had six champs from each class that were 6* locked at the time), and then for the cherry on top, make her a meta defender remove her from the crystal completely and lock her behind a pay wall.
Of all the things to complain about, you complain about Kabam cooking? The only miss in this event is not giving Apoc a line in his kit for +2 charges in BGs fights.

This is just a bad excuse meant to soften the blow at the end of the day. No one in their right mind would entertain Carnage for a moment when considering the other 5 champs in the crystal. Anyone that did shouldn't be on a team that makes decisions. Add the fact that Carnage was already released as a 7* (that no one is chomping at the bit to see come back) and the notion that this was even a thought is even more laughable. Customer service 101 - tell the people how much worse their experience could've been and then tell them how much better you're making it because you helped them avoid the bad.
I am content with the final picture of this event, but I am not content with a poor excuse to cover up the justification for a weird decision. You wanna keep CGR out a little longer? Sure. But there's no way anyone can look at the current state of the game, look at the slate of champions that have been automatically released as 7* regardless of how good (or broken) they might be, and say the game isn't ready for a 7* Hulkling but is definitely ready for Tigra.
Comments
If you’re saying the game is not ready for 7* Hulkling, it feels like you’re saying the game is not ready until a new 7* Cosmic Powerhouse is around to overshadow Hulkling the same way Herc overshadowed a lot of champions for a while. But guess what? You guys didn’t like how Herc negatively affected the way you made content. The cherry on top of this? Watch you guys add Hulkling in when r5 or even r6 are available, then come talk to us about “the game is not ready for Hulkling”
Your issues only bothers you not others.
(Just speaking in general not singling out anyone)
My issue is...
90% of the playerbase will miss out on 4/5 of these champs. Never to see them again.
Congrats in advance to everyone who will pull a single 7* apoc, and hes gonna sit on the bench forever. Lol.
Especially when we have people who even used a mistake they made in a poll as proof of a champion. Oh and don't get me started with the Octopus based on Crashed's (?) comment.There was nothing they could do except just reveal Phoenix in the beginning itself.
And for those expecting Annihilus and Thor, Dark Phoenix is a way better option.
Kabam Rex said we are not ready for CGR.. hulkling or Hercules as a 7* but Tigra is very powerful also. Anyone that really know how to play with Tigra will nuke almost every defender in Battlegrounds.
I can guarantee you not a single soul on these forums expected Phoenix you're just sucking them off at this point, get well soon bud.
I didn't say it wasn't, I simply said I'm disappointed and I agree with op. Don't like it? Agree to disagree and move on lol.
Kabam: All is going according to plan.
But in hindsight, why didn't you guys just put galan in the crystal and put someone else in the titan instead of him?
If you needed skill options, who could've taken Lumatrix's place, you have Zemo, Stealthy and Valk sitting there.
Even then, there's plenty of other choices who could've been the titan champ instead of Galan.
Toad, Nimrod, Viv Vision, Black Widow (Claire Voyant), Cassie Lang, etc, are all choices that could've taken that titan slot, while keeping Galan for the cosmic choice for HoF.
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy Galan is in the titan, since I won't need to spend a dime to hopefully get him from there, but, it ultimately just seemed a bit illogical to put him in it while not having a great choice for the cosmic rep in HoF.
The event as it will be in the game I'm pretty much fine with. Im still teetering on whether or not I'll dump all the units i have to get dark phoenix or not but I'll dump enough to get the other 5 that im excited about
The other three were not even in the conversation over there in the office.
Keep sulking lmfao.
