Those optimizations are always ongoing, and we've made some improvements, but I don't want to say that the issue will be completely fixed until we have had some time with the new release out in the wild.
Credit where credit is due. To repeat what someone said earlier, thanks to the Kabaam team for buffing these champs. This does so much for morale. Really looking forward to seeing my 6* Gamora in action with this new update!
Now I’m just waiting for Emma’s synergy with Cyclops to be fixed.

Is Proxima Midnight not being able to block unblockable attacks due to Map 7's global counterstrike node being looked into?
Will at least, this update, be available for those users?
Unfortunatly, I'm going to be affected by this change. I've been playing this game everyday, for 4 years now and have done everything on the game so far, including LoL and Variant.
And now suddently, I will be forced to stop playing until I get a new device, which really sucks to be honest ...
Can't say I wasn't expecting this, but it was sooner that I think it would be ...
