Rank Down Tickets

I ain't gonna stand here and lie! I made some dumb decisions in the game and that involves ranking up champions like my original 5* who is absolutely Xavier School of TRASH! Even when gifted the mighty rank down tickets in the March update I squandered my chance to permenantly take away his rank 2 status and used him as a way to get stones and shards! Now my roster has expanded thanks to RoL, Act 5 chapter 1, a few heroic through masters at 100% and AW! And while I was able to get some decent changes I still want to make more! I was told they fixed Doctor Stange and well they really didn't, they made Thor decent again and even soft corrected BW and SW! But this was AFTER most people overhauled their rosters! If this is a game I wanna trade some early game Pawns for some QUEENS!

Hear me out:
30 days timers for 4* and 5*
15 day timer for 3*

Each ticket costs 1100 glory and 7k, 10k or 15k Loyalty (depending on Stars) and only 1 can be bought at a time with a timer similar to alliance crystal but on a much LONGER scale (as to prevent abuse).

This would be SO beneficial and not broken as both currencies have FAR better uses and they'd be limited to 1 a month for the important 2 heck you can even slap on 100 Units a ticket as a "service charge" from the grandmaster

Rank Down Tickets are for major changes to a Champ's functioning. (Nerfs). We haven't had any major changes like that since 12.0.1. At which time we had 2 rounds of them, and about 6 weeks to decide who we wanted to adjust.
Part of the game is working for Resources to Rank Champs, and making decisions on who we want to Rank with them. Tickets are not so we can Rank the next Champ that comes out that we like better. Personally, I play to Rank everyone, so it's counterproductive to use them. Other people are selective, and I understand that. It still doesn't change the fact that the game is about working for what you need to advance.

However there is no middle ground to. Actually test champions lately

Heroic is a joke and Masters is brutal
I don't even get to 2 bars to actually TEST my VooDoo and all I have is the word of others and a half garbled ability list that suggests he's decent. Now I know he is great because everyone praises him and I compared him with other valuable champions I ranked up to r4 and r5 however I didn't always have them either! For the less sentimental and more focused on challenges not being able to freely test a champion without being at a SEVERE disadvantage one way or the other take wa all strategy as sometimes you actually have to USE a champion to know it's wirth

I would save mine to do what I said. You rank them up and stick them on defense and then rank them down so they stay ranked up for defense. Not rank them after you place

username92847

Nobody is asking for RDTs each day,...
Just once a month to adjust to changes in game

Deadbyrd9

What change through? New champs and more 5* champs?

username92847

Cap was silently nerfed.
Parry isnt working right (for ALL, but some, more so then others)
& YES, Im SURE ppl want to re-use the T4CCs they wasted on Carnage.

There are many areas of the game you can test a Champ. Story Mode is one, and I'm sure you'll find a difficulty that accommodates that. ROL seems to be the most common gauge. That's why we make educated decisions. We also have a community which is more than willing to share what they've found, and if we don't trust that, we can always test them ourselves.
There is also theory involved. Reading Spotlights, understanding the Nodes of AQ and AW, applying what we understand about the game. That all factors into who we decide to use.
Tickets aren't for testing every Champ that comes out or keeping up with who has what. We have to make our own decisions.

The people who ranked carnage so quickly are idiots

They stated it right before the second batch of rank down tickets if u really didn't like the new cap that was when u should've acted not months down the road when u get another champ u would rather use

So, why does sirnoob2,

defend kabam so passionately ?

On multiple threads?!?

I tried that during the original batch for Magik… I didn't work

username92847

At the end of the day, RDTs will give me the ability of choice,
& a sence of freedom...

Whereas now, its more like a slave to the grind, for that better champ, the journey to get t4cc's, & units to afford AQ & War.

DERPYREVENGER

Kabam should give us a limited time rank down ticket after a big wave of nerfs/buffs so that we can quickly change our minds, depending on the buff/nerf

Deadbyrd9

I don't defend Kabam man. Never will. I'm defending the game. Rank ups are a key part. That's why resources are limited. I would love to rank down 1 certain champ because I ran out of tickets the first time. I save my resources. I have 8 cosmic t4cc because I don't have a good cosmic to rank up and don't want to use them on my 5* Ronan even though he's duped

Deadbyrd9

Pb teams were way too OP. I beat ROL with a 3* sl. Aq and aw were way too easy with those teams. Nerfs happened and we got rank down tickets. I haven't seen any nerfs since then. Just a few bugs @KALIZO

@GroundedWisdom is right. We just use common sense and logic.

username92847

A few bugs ?....
so, your definition of "a few"
Is in the hundreds??

If you can name 100 bugs that are active right now, I'll consider that comment.

Deadbyrd9

I was referring to champ bugs not game bugs. But I would like to see that too @GroundedWisdom

Just a general statement. To say hundreds is a bit large to make sense.

Deadbyrd9

Ti get back in topic. I think rank down tickets shouldn't be introduced again unless Kabam makes more nerfs

Jaguaraci_Silva

RDT could be one of rewards on master level or special event quest.

King_Cobra735

Fine, let Kabam say no, they change game to where most of us have wasted resources on 4 stars, they think we going to invest another 2 years to do now mandatory 5 stars, and then probably have them phas them out too? I'm going to be saying NO TO KABAM. No I'm not buying anything EVER again and NO, I won't be playing much longer.WHY PLAY A GAME THAT KABAM KEEPS CHANGING TO POINT NOT FUN ANYMORE. At least rank down tickets give some momentary joy.

Deadbyrd9

How do they give joy? If you only find joy on that then I'm surprised you're still playing. I enjoy challenging content while fighting with some of my favorite marvel characters. Except my favorite because I don't have Thor as a 4*

EvilEmpire

Kabam constantly adjusts champs either publicly or silently so it's not outrageous to ask for rank down tickets periodically to allow us to adjust our roster based on the current landscape, do we need them every 3 months probably not but it's not that unreasonable to ask for something like this on occasion. So many moving parts in this game it's like a butterfly effect when they change masteries too, the kabam fluffers will argue that's not directly aimed at a champ and therefore doesn't deserve consideration but if for example they adjust the crit rate of a bleed stacking champ then not only is my champ been devalued but so has my deep wounds which I invested in based on the "current landscape". I have no problem with regular ballancing but I should be afforded the ability to balance my roster as well when these changes take place.

GroundedWisdom

They don't silently adjust Champs. That's conspiracy at best.

username92847

okay, hundreds may have been excessive, but surely everyone agrees, its in the dozens.

and they most certainly do, silently nerf champs, the forums are filled with descriptions of those issues.

Evil Empire is right.

& nobody's asking for them every week or every day.

we just need them once every couple of months for the game that keeps changing monthly,weekly,daily, and overnight.

This comment is nieve at best, anyone that plays the game at a high level notices all the subtle nuances and timings that are constantly adjusted. As far as the hundreds of bugs that's probably still accurate. If you add up the abilities that don't function properly and how masteries like evade and perry interact differently against different champs it would be easy to compile a list of variances that could be considered minor bugs but are typically just brushed under the rug as "working as intended".

Complete speculation. As old as the game is. If every Fight isn't fought under perfect conditions, people jump the gun and claim they've been nerfed. They don't change the game at will. It's paranoia.
