I just realized that unlike previous times, this is not a new champion being put in it but a buffed one. Since she’s not in the crystals does this mean she’s exclusive?

    She will be like Cyclops, then, right? Rework, and acquired through the double track?

    She’s not a rework and is not being treated like a new champ

    Basically same as cyclops. Existing champ who gets buffed or reworked (take your pick) and introduced as a seven star via double track. If they follow the pattern, she’ll go into the Titan like Cyke.

    They have both been in the game for years. The only thing new is their updated kit and they were introduced as seven stars.

    I guess what you’re saying is he got a brand new kit, which is completely true. But I don’t know if that’s enough to change the release strategy.

    All of the plat track champs have come out in titans and basics, right? Or am I forgetting someone…?

    But cyclops was a new champion, she is not.
    cyclops is not a new champion…
    In a sense he was, with his type of rework they treated him like a new champion release and had him take a slot of last months champions, like how iron man did. She doesn’t do that.

    Cyclops got whole remodel, new animations, new abilities and everything a new champion gets, so yeah he was new champion.

    This capitan Britan not so much.

    Which is why I’m asking if she’s going to be exclusive to this double pass.

    Impossible to say. Champ acquisition is all over the place right now.

    She certainly feels like a mid-tier champ who should go i to crystals eventually. All the other plat track champs I can think k of have gone i to crystals…

    Yes since it doesn't say she'll be in the next titan pool

    Yeah but all the previous ones have been technically new champions

    Unless she’s a tougher defender than she looks based on the gameplay I’ve seen, I’d be pretty aggravated to pull her from a Titan.

    She can stall with her safeguard and has unavoidable damage with the neuroshocks

    So after 4 months.

    For the record, Kabam themselves call her a "rework". The last line of their email about her (with the two new champs) ends with "Play the rework now!"

    When I said she's like Cyclops, I meant she is an existing champ in the game who many have in their rosters already, but she is the focus of the platinum track. Like Cyclops, I believe this will be her first time available as a 7 star, so they still may have her as a featured champ one week with her own crystals and everything. It's not the degree of change in the champ that Cyclops was, but the overall situation is similar.

    She’ll enter the Titan eventually

    unfortunately this is unknown. The last "rework" was NC and he isnt found anywhere. It is a tough situation with no info currently.

    Nightcrawler was a saga chase, not a double track

    thanks for that correction! you are correct. I'm hoping Cap Britian is part of the Titan crystal, but will let the game team respond to that.

    If it’s the same pattern as previous double tracks, then she will enter the Titan pool

    She’ll likely enter the pool in the next rotation (not this upcoming one)
