The game is built around earning, and/or purchasing, Champs and the materials to Rank them. I don't work for Resources just to Rank Champs, so I can take them down again. It's counterproductive. Honestly, we have to live with our choices and move on. If I was waiting on Tickets, I'd never play the game to earn more Resources.

Apart from those two awful, awful statements, you're absolutely right.

Apart from those two awful, awful statements, you're absolutely right. Yet we come here month after month and the requests for Tickets keep coming. Which means people are either Ranking with the expectation of a do-over, or they're focusing more on a fast track than earning them. Choices. We make choices. Then we use those choices to earn more and Rank different Champs. The point is, with the Tickets, you can just bypass weeks and months of playing to earn materials. What's the point of playing? That's my point.

We want refunds for the hard-earned materials that we spent in good faith on the logical and understandable assumption that champs would be worth the same now as they were when they were ranked up. Why should we have to live with our choices when Kabam can, and will, at any time make any change to any champ that they want to?

Why should we have to live with our choices when Kabam can, and will, at any time make any change to any champ that they want to? You buy a car today and in a year a better car comes out. Will a dealership give you a refund on your last purchase ? Kabam didn't nerf any champs and returned the resources spent on md if you ranked as mystic simply for defense that was your choice. I'm sure you probably also ranked a blade for attack. People had already found ways around md and the changes did nothing to alter the use of the champ. All the md changes did was give the playerbase what they were screaming for before blade was introduced to the contest. It fixed a mastery that was broken when used on defense. The same argument could be made by anyone who ranked a spiderman for defense since he was destroyed as an aw defender with the venom buff or iwim since people learned how to fight him with his auto block. Life is about making choices and living with those decisions stop begging for rank down tickets to correct your bad choices

People need to make choices wisely and live with them. They discourage people from learning how to choose wisely and take responsibility for their own reasoning. 3. It contradicts the whole point of the game, which is to earn the Resources needed to Rank, through a number of modes. 4. Once they're given, it just feeds an insatiable expectation to have them, and every excuse is made. The meta, fixes, buffs, rarity of materials, new Champs being introduced, it never ends. 5. It affects the financial aspect of the game because countless earnings are made through people playing game modes to earn Resources. Although not the sole reason, I would be a fool not to acknowledge it as an aspect. I could probably go on. How do rank ups or down affect financial aspects of the game....they dont. You make it seem like the spenders who buy items to rank up champs or pay to get through content first woudlnt still continue to do so. Unless of course you're saying someone would rank down then re rank a different champ for a certain path quest etc etc. The majority wait them. You dont...that's awesome and great for you. I'm proud of you good job on making the best choices all the time. The game is about progression and the rate at which the needed resources to rank up champs isnt very good. That is unless your in a top group that has a stranglehold on the game and just dont want others to gain any ground.
