Upcoming Cull Obsidian and Ebony Maw Balance Changes

Symbiote Supreme has not been changed at all, it remains the same, only one thing in its description has been fixed that does not change anything in the gameplay.
My main problem is how they determined that it was too much. We have no idea how they evaluate champs.
Also, the running of the Maw/Cull crystal while withholding the pending changes. I’ve mentioned it a few times with little response, because everybody knows it’s deceitful.
I spent $400 to get Cull. I also whaled out and dropped a grand for Warlock and Claire. Crazy I know, but I freaked out a bit. Maybe a couple of whiskeys involved.
I just took Warlock to 5/65, and I’d like to do the same for Claire.
I have no idea if these champs will remain the same in a few months, so what did I buy? Maybe a rank down ticket, but probably not?
Maybe they care, maybe they don’t, but if the people who make these decisions are reading this, then I have this to say.... I will not purchase anything else in this game, because I have no assurance that the picture on the box is what is actually in the box. Plain and simple. And it takes a hell of a lot of time and work to get champs to that level.
Take it for what it’s worth from a small time, small whale.
Lawyer: Player A, did you read the terms of service?
Player A: Yes I did.
Lawyer: Did you read the part under the section "Right to Modify" that says Kabam has the right to modify the service at any time?
Player A: Yes, but that's not fair: I don't think that's right.
Lawyer: So you disagree with that clause.
Player A: Yes, I do.
Lawyer: So you didn't agree to the terms of service, and you thus have no valid agreement to play the game. Why did you play the game if you didn't agree to all the terms of the agreement. That's theft of service.
Player A: But they cheated me!
Lawyer: How can they cheat someone who was stealing access to the service in the first place? You had no right to anything at all if you were stealing the service.
The question of what's reasonable here is open for discussion. But for those who think *claiming* to be considering a lawsuit or *claiming* to be talking to a lawyer means anything, it doesn't. I doubt you could convince a lawyer to take the case, but if you happen to find a lawyer brave or crazy enough to do so, the first thing this lawyer will do is tell you to stop talking, because everything you say here on the forums or elsewhere can be collected by discovery and used against you. The only way you can demonstrate you're serious about attempting a lawsuit is to disappear. If you're still here, you're bluffing.
You keep failing more with every patch and every champion.
Poor communication.
Poor Alpha testing.
Poor Beta testing.
Poor response to feedback.
Poor response to bugs that hurt your customer base while you immediately fix ones that take away from padding your bottom line.
Each patch introduces more bugs than they fix.
I highly recommend you apologize to the community, put content on hold for a month or two while you fix EVERY major bug in the game presently, use the added time to actually test the new upcoming characters properly so you do not have to make "adjustments", let alone long after the champions are in the basic pool and supposedly "safe". No champion is safe from being "adjusted" if they allow people to progress too easily through content, in your opinion. You think this will cause people to spend more? Hell no!
Had you bothered to check, while Cull has good damage, he has zero utility or block proficiency. No immunities. No healing. No power control. No heal block. And he relies heavily on his heavy, usually via parry stunning. He is a potion hog. I have him at R4 and have used him maybe twice in the last month. Virtually useless compared to other champs for Ch6 or Variant content. Even for farming RoL for potions, he is subpar compared to SL. The average number of hits to clear RoL is LESS with SL than a Cull - and you take less damage doing it with SL. OP? No. Ghost? Yes. Corvus? Yes. Blade? Yes.
This is going to really harm any faith you had left with the community, and DEFINITELY your bottom line.
The developers certainly have no knowledge of who you are and what you spend. They aren't even allowed to touch the live servers directly, much less yank information out of them, much less yank personal financial data out of them. They also have no idea who you are or what you've spent.
Maybe the financial people, possibly the monetization people either know or have access to that information, maybe. There are regulations that govern who has access to that kind of information. Regardless I doubt if any of those people actually read the forums. Most game operators and back office people don't.
"Kabam" knows, but no single human being is likely to be able to connect a forum post to a game account to a human being to a spending record.
