**UPDATES TO ENLISTMENT GIFTING EVENT:**
To prevent exploitation, we will prevent new Accounts from being able to Gift enlistment crystals. We will also be taking action on those who are using 3rd Party Sellers, Bots and other farms to gift themselves mass amounts of Enlistment Crystals. Lastly, we will be adding an expiration timer to Enlistment Crystals. All unopened Enlistment Crystals will expire on Oct 18 @ 17:00 UTC. For more information, please see this post: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/346104/updates-to-enlistment-gifting-event

**KNOWN ISSUE**
We have adjusted the node placement of the new AW maps to better allow path traversal. As a result, defender placements have been reset. Please, take a moment to re-place your defender setup. We will be pushing out a message in-game shortly.

MD change. Rank down ticket

To ignore the fact it has changed a major dynamic of the game and a major dynamic for many of these champs is a little ignorant.
Luckily we've been here before with changes and rdt and that is why I never rank any champ for any reason other than what usefulness they have stand alone.
Md will only effect how defenders work, not how champs in your hands work.
If you ranked a mystic champ for defense because your alliance said to, well then you may want to take a hard look in the mirror and think about who’s opinion matters more. Yours or your alliances? They’re your champs, don’t get salty cause you followed the advice of others instead of ranking champs that have universal benefits
You rank up mystic champs because of the added value of MD. This value goes is like nerfing SW crit rate or regeneration or DS regeneration value. It’s still the same. And it’s not crying for something it’s claiming what you rightfully deserve
Can usually see sense in most of the things you say, but have to disagree here. This is similar to the v12 debacle and offering those mystic rank up packages the week before.
People will have invested their own money to rank up champions because of MD - because they are great defenders for AW or because it helps clear content - but the fact remains that to two are intrinsically linked.
If you lease a car on a 4 year lease, with a 6 litre V12 engine in it, then around two years in the leasing company just switch it out to a 1.2, you're going to be pretty upset.
why champs as mordo or dormammu are considered defenders? mordo came out in 2016 and dorm is the AQ boss for 1 year, nobody should have many problems to take them down in AW
Anyone who ranked Juggs in the past half year is just stupid imo, with all the anti-mystic anti-md elements available in the game.
When Blade hit I stopped ranking mystic villains for def. I only rank champions who do something nice offensively, because that's where wars are won anyway. Since AW2 and the death of defkills, high-kill defenders have lost a lot of value. They aren't stopping anyone, just delaying them. You need defenders who are decent attackers too and who can get 2-3 kills on some nodes. And play a diversity war unless you can place all IMIW and Dominos
Calling people stupid doesn’t help anything.
Alliances at the top tell you to jump and you ask how far.
Kabam has created a system whereby you follow or get booted.
If you don’t know this pain then I’m genuinely happy for you.
Juggs won’t stop anyone and Blade has ensured that, yet try to see things from the holder’s point of view and understand that not everyone is perfect and some people follow or are pushed to follow.
Kabam have ensured that alliances are aggressive and must win, therefore players follow.
From a player in tier 2 wars please try to understand the time, money, effort and pain that goes into keeping up, as opposed to your personal situation.
I say this having currently 4 r4 5*/6* mystics on my AWD between two accounts
My guess is they also didn’t like how MD interacted with nodes like resistor where you would get MD essentially every hit once they reach 10 stacks and Magik / MS would burn those fast. Still can burn relatively fast - just have to build power slower (or use Ronan If not stun immune /limber which you can expect they will do in future)
They still need to address Skill mastery too
