Game updated automatically when I was in a LOL path run.
I can see that he can’t be used anymore for this type of OLD Quest.
Started fight parry once heavy parry twice inflict 2 neurotoxins . I ve let them expire short stun shorter .
So after 10 hits practically u are fighting a stun immune opponent with 3.4 mil health
That also reflects in the damage u can put on your opponent who is lower and lower cause u inflict neurotoxin rare and only from specials.
So in conclusion I ranked 5 my 5* AA for LOL runs ( to help me with some specific nodes ) he can’t anymore
Beside this if u fight a maxed limber opponent after neurotoxins expire if u don’t hit like Flash u might get stunned
So AA become a usless champ
Beside damage or simple quests he is nothing

AA is still a beast. A little less now, but sure beats a lot of others. I wish I had him.
Sure everyone would have thought twice about ranking archangel up if this was known.
That depends whether you are looking at Abilities or Nodes. Nodes that give Immunity aren't really Abilities perse.
Thanks
OK, now that we've got you saying 'for all intents and purposes' we'll need to start correcting your use of the word 'irregardless'. The word you're looking for is 'regardless'.
How long it takes me clear LOL is my prerogative as I didn't know I need to rush before they 'fix' my champ if they had the decency to inform us when they decided to 'fix' him instead of a 2 days before they changed it I may have rushed it.
& yes it is very dissapointing for me as hes now useless for the only content I have left in the game to complete had I known this would be the case I would never have taken him to 5/65 I wouldve kept him at R4 for lower level content, I will have to start again trying to get another champ to 5/65 to clear LOL especially since I am no longer spending due to this, never know with my luck Ill 5/65 Blade & they nerf him.
If this was a change to Blade no matter how small people would be loosing their minds & demanding rank down tickets left right & centre.
I will continue to complain about this & continue to request RDTs for AA until I eventually quit this clown fiesta of a game since I spent large sums of money & time to get my roster to this point only to have it taken away with little no no reasoning.
Had you bought a Ferrari to Race on a specific track only to have the organizers force you to change the engine crippling your ability to compete while everyone else is able to drive their ferrari's as is you would also be pissed .
The issue I have is that it was reported as working as intended so I rank him up, up 6 months later they change it & its oh sorry guys! we got it wrong! it IS a bug now so we gonna 'fix' it and screw anyone who sunk their resources into him.
The precedent that this creates is so dangerous as they can now change champs they dont feel fit into their ideas for new content & use the excuse that they were 'bugged'
Does not change his value?
AA was the only one who could bypass stun immune nodes, IE, AW bosses. Of course this nerf changes his value.
I do agree that AA specific rank down tickets should be given out.
It’s been standard practice since the start of the game .
Take magik , she’s been broken since start , they updated her and she still was broken, they update and an apparent bug miraculously fixes her ability so it starts to work like it should then bam! To much fuss is kicked up so they take her back to being broken .
Typical kabam tactics , now AA was broken as he stunned even on an immune node so they fix him but that’s fine , obviously someone can’t read champ bio info or use the correct wording .
At the time the AA thing came up, my understanding of passive effects was incomplete. If I knew then what I know now, I would have called out the statement as being extremely unlikely to be correct, despite the fact that a moderator was saying it. It would simply be fundamentally illogical. Believe it or not, this precise situation has come up before in other games. It falls into the category of absolutely irresistible effects. Short version: my game design hat all but screams "error" with regard to this situation. It could never have been allowed to stand indefinitely.
Because of that I'm willing to give Kabam the benefit of the doubt that the original statement was actually a mistake, and the intent was never to do this. I wouldn't bet my life on it because people make stupid mistakes all the time. If it was any other game company I would say it is extremely unlikely to have been a deliberate problem. But Kabam sometimes surprises me by replicating the errors of game design history that I assume everyone is supposed to know. You're supposed to know never hand your players "absolutely irresistible" effects that directly do important things, because you've just tied your content designers' hands behind their backs and then thrown them into a fast flowing river.
Stop it. How he was "meant" to function is irrelevant after we were told he was meant to function otherwise. Ranking someone for the hardest and most expensive content in the game if they have an ability that can save you money makes sense. Being told that he was meant to function that way ought to have made it safe. Calling it a "fix" when the "bug" was only announced after the fact is absurd. Every nerf is a "fix" depending on how you define the word. You are ignoring what is the right thing to do from an ethics/business standpoint based on semantics.
