v21.3 will be available on February 6th! Read on to learn about this exciting update!
X-MEN: XENOCLAST
A new and dangerous illness has swept over the mutants of The Battlerealm, and the X-Men must align themselves with the Brotherhood to hunt down the source. When all signs point to the return of Mister Sinister, relationships become strained as Cyclops and his brother Havok abandon their allies to join Mister Sinister’s mysterious plan. Can the Summers brothers be saved from the nefarious Mister Sinister and his despicable experiments?
ALLIANCE QUESTS
Take on the most challenging Alliance Quest Map to date! Alliance Quest Map 7 features more difficult challenges for each and every participant - challenges that will change every week. Random Global Buffs will change who you choose to do battle with, while shifting paths will force you and your Battlegroup to coordinate effectively. Make it through Map 7 and you’ll earn more Points than ever before, a new Map 7 Crystal featuring Tier 5 Basic Catalysts and more!
To compliment the arrival of Map 7, some changes have been made to other Alliance Quest Maps and Rewards. Alliance Quest Map 4 is now FREE to play, and Maps 5 and 6 are now less costly to participate in. New Random Global Buffs will also feature across Maps 2-6 - choose your team wisely to take advantage! In addition to these changes, the Glory Store will have some item costs reduced, new Milestones will be added, existing Milestones will have Map 7 Crystals added to them, and Ranked Rewards will feature more Tier 2 Alpha availability and the inclusion of Tier 5 Basic Fragments!
Map 7 and these changes will not be in effect until February 16th. Stay tuned for more information!
ALLIANCE WAR MATCHMAKING UPDATE
A brand new Alliance War matchmaking system is in place! Alliances that want to participate in Alliance Wars will have to Enlist to a war during the Opt-In phase, and will be matched against another Alliance at the end of this period. The Opt-In phases begin at 3:00PM PST on Sunday, Wednesday and Friday. Wars will kick off starting at 11:00AM PST on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. Matches will be given out over the course of 4 hours, followed by 20 hours of Defense Placement and you will have 24 hours to complete your Attack Phase. This system will ensure that you’re getting the best possible matches for your Alliance’s strengths and ensure that you are given a match if you are opted-in!

I really like her new Special 1 animation too, so make sure you give it a try!
U Can say that we dont ikow how she is yet
-- This does look like a change and not a bug fix , since in her spotlight it doesn't say anything about a debuff.
Also in the next lines, it says that she causes armor shattered? Was this meant to be armor break?
"Summoners will no longer continue to take damage when a match timer expires"
-- Also this, what does it mean? Can I now pause the fight in AQ, let the timer expire and i will get out with to penalization?
I know this is a joke, but remember... There is a Spider-Gwen with Unblockable Special 1 in Act 5.2, and that's not changing!
FINALLY!
• Custom Art will now be used to differentiate each Battlegroup depending on the Map chosen
What does this mean?
@Kabam Miike Can you explain this? If you timeout in aq fight you don t lose half hp?
Thank you
The gap between owning 5* and 6* has gotten bigger and even tho some arent r2 worthy it still allows players to be able to expand their roster
Does that mean that you will cancel her beta?
@Kabam Miike if you don’t remove the unblockable l1, but spider-gwen’s l1 can now hit people, then you are admitting that you are increasing the difficulty eithout increasing the rewards. Remove the unblockable l1 on that fight or don’t change the l1. You can’t have it both ways
And when will dungeon be back?
When will we see the new AQ with map 7 and more?
This does not mean that you won't take Damage from timing out. There was a bug where if the Fight timer in AQ ran out, sometimes the Enemy would still be able to attack you and deliver damage. This has been fixed now.
Not quite yet, but stay tuned! That information is not far off.
Nope! This is only Step 1 in her proposed improvements. There are still ability updates that need to be checked out!
We'll make sure that you're given lots of heads up. Expect it sometime this week!
