Oh great, the worst addition to the game possible (6*) is being compounded by an initial pool that is a who’s who of “meh”.

“Hey summoners, feeling like after 3 years of time and effort and money that you’re FINALLY developing a 5* roster that you’re bordering on being happy with? Well we have great news!!!! How would u feel if we made them worth less and brought in 6* and made everything at the top end of the game ten times more expensive as a result? WELL YOU’RE IN LUCK!!!!”

@Kabam Miike will we see Tier 5 basics become more available with this happening?!

Introduced into a new season of AQ or are more modes being done to add them into that?

Bosley

Epic Fail doen't begin to explain how badly you guys missed the mark on both the champs and the required rank up material. People are already saying they're gonna wait for better champs and hoard shards. Not even worth opening right now.

6 stars are cool and all that but can we get any news on a 5 star arena?

mostlyharmlessn

So Adrenaline basically sounds like a possibility to regen/rogue life steal.... so does this also mean Gully's Sp2 can reverse it?

she3_rawy

the pool is something I can get behind because they can't be god tier so they don't break the game, but why does WWII Fit the 6* criteria & doesn't fit the 5* criteria ?

I would like to ask what we are all thinking...

What will the 7* pool look like in 6 months?

dlan

why KAMALA KHAN is not in the pool, so frustrating....

RagamugginGunner

That pool is pathetic. Only 3-5 champs have any use unawakened and most even awakened are just arena fodder.

Exactly. This is so demotivating. Too bad kabam cannot see that. All they see is $$$$$. Should just wait for 7*’s to come out. Where does it end kabam??

Bosley

The 6 star announcement broke the game. There's that famed KABAM reliability....

The list could of been a little better but oh well.

The important thing to remember here is that any one of these Champions has the ability to be the Strength of a 4/55 5-Star Champion with no Rank Up Materials whatsoever. Also, some of these Champions may not be the best, but they are far from being underwhelming.

I want that 6-Star Angela!

EDIT: Originally said 5/65 5-Star. This was incorrect.

Elaborate how this initial list was crafted, and how god-tier Cyclops didn’t make the cut?

And don’t tell us it was based off “empierical” data again.

I think you mean 4/55 5*. Which is not bad.... But the champs still kinda suck.
And if no changes will be made to the 5* crystal, then we need a way to earn even more shards than now. Maybe not right now, but by summer the latest.

SpiritOfVengeance

A quick question my good sir will the dates for more 6 stars being added to the crystal be a short time gap or a long one?
@Kabam Miike Have a merry christmas.

Blackhawkbill

Albeit a few....typical MASSIVE dissappointment for that first batch of 6*....

That aside, @Kabam Miike is there any plans to update rewards....on just about every aspect of gameplay? AW, AQ, solo events, 24hr events, milestones, AQ events, ect?

The vast majority are beyond useless and need looking into w the game making the transition to what’s seemingly super powerful champs regarding the 6*

Deadlyslayer007

serious question

Any chance the amount of t2a able to be stored is going to be increased with this release??

nope, it doesn't get affected by reverse healing or heal blocking

need to complete our KAMALA KHAN collection

AlphaKratos

No Cyclops??? Everyone would have loved to use him effectively in AQ/AW.

do we get 7 star champ shards if we dupe a 6 star champ?

DeathBringer77

Love how this announcement comes out and they try to sell 3* awakening packages. Insulting. No 5* package??? Of course not, buy the 3* or 4* packages for obsolete champs that you can not use anymore due to challenger rating

SpiritOfVengeance

Where is the man himself. Mr most effective. Mr eye burner. Mr i cannot see. Mr cyclops.

GangsterSauce

I suggest @Kabam Miike to try out the game “brave Exvius” to see how they introduce 6*s to make existing other *s to be more relevant

bradshaw1984

Credit to @Kabam Miike for always putting on a brave face when he has to deliver dog faeces to our doorstep like this.

He gets it hard from the community sometimes but he’s just the face for atrocious decisions that are made by others who care not one bit for anything but the bottom line, and the only time they’ll do something that in any way benefits us is when they’re backed into a corner or as a precursor for something bigger which they know the entire community will despise.

December is starting to make a lot more sense now when you put it into context with the trashing of 5* featured crystals and the excretion of 6* onto the game.

That’s complete bs. 4* can handle all content atm.

T5bc 3 needed but inventory can only hold 2?

The Inventory Capacity for Tier 5 Basics will also be increasing with the 17.0 release! You'll be able to hold on to 6 of those valuable catalysts without worrying about them expiring.

With 7 t4b, t4c and t2a needed, those capacities need to be increased as well! Give us some wiggle room! to at least hold out one set for a good champ without risking expirations.

Onyxgem

What a **** show of champions, way to bring out the worst of the worst for your 6 start chumps!

Blax4ever

I’m wondering how many players will be able to open a 6* crystal shard on day one.

AQ scores are going to be interesting
