How shall I decide who to rank up?

Hello,

I have pulled a few 5* champions in the past couple of weeks many of us would consider to be "Top Tier", mainly named Symbiote Supreme, Hyperion, Cap IW, Cull Obsidian and (probably soon to be changed into a Top-Tier champion) Old Man Logan. However, Kabam has shown several thing in the recent weeks:
1. Descriptions of champions can be "wrong" for months, like Symbiote Supreme´s.
2. Mechanics that have been in the game for years can be "not intended", like the heavy-chain.
3. Newer champions can be nerfed a few months after their release, like Cull Obsidian.
4. Champions that have just recently been reworked can be nerfed, like She-Hulk.
May I ask the following question: How in the world can I ever be sure if the champion I want to rank up is not going to be changed in a rather negative way next month?
Let´s take Cap IW: Maybe the mechanic of throwing a heavy and using a special attack mid-heavy is "not intended"? Or maybe his glancing is "better than intended"? Is there any clarity? Right now I cannot look at a single champion and say "This champion definitely is not going to be nerfed next month!".

I'd say rank no one because obviously everyone is at risk for "tweaking"

1. Symbiote Supreme description was wrong but they never changed how he worked, he is still a top tier champion (i have 1 r5/65 sig 142)
2. A non issue since most the champs being fixed by this are lesser used champions
3. We don't know the details so how can you call it a nerf seeing as many people have said if they reduce his damage and increase block proficiency that he'd become more usable.
4. Using the same point twice shows you lack enough solid points. Since shehulks adjustment was covered by point 2. As well they gave out rdts and i doubt anyone spent 100s or 1000s to get shehulk
5. Oh wait you don't even have a 5th arguement mind you they're in the process of buffing 5 champs. If you dont trust ranking anyone anymore just quit the game.

I understand your frustration and as if lately been pondering the same thing. With so many champs getting adjustments recently it makes you wonder if you’re just going to end up wasting resources. I’d like to add something, Kabam has decided to readjust the heavy’s of LC, Iron Man, Superior Iron Man and all who do the upper cut. Now this was the first thing that stuck out to me, these champs have been in the game for a very long time. Some since the release of the game which was about 4 years ago (correct me I’m wrong) and it’s just now becoming apparent that it’s an issue? And they also don’t intend to give rank down tickets which again, I’m not complaining but a lot of moves that Kabam has been making is just plain fishy to me.

Read the announcement. Devs want to keep Cull as a top damage dealer. We don't know anything 100%. She-Hulk was not needed but just because Cull is being tweaked everyone starts overreacting. Maybe Magik power control is too strong. She's been in the game since start almost. ALSO Kabam are only looking at champs from last 6 months so anything before Human Torch/Anhilus is safe. If you fear mongers want to get so scared Namor is the only one but I highly doubt it. Rank as normal. 12.0 Nerfs didn't make people not rank their Ghosts and Corvus'

Though research.

Rank up trash champs, so you'd be happy when they twick them. Don't think dpx can become worse then he is

IMO, the most important question is the question that I ask myself…which is…. how much time & money I am going to continue investing into MCOC... realistically trying to speculate what characters will or will not be negatively impacted by future modifications just seem futile at this point… especially since base on Kabam’s past actions they really don’t have a reasonable idea of what those future modifications will be hence the ‘blip’ regarding the 3 month champion review…honestly I actually see their conundrum…If you look at the issue objectively MCOC was game designed w/ very limited shelf life but due to the revenue being generated Kabam is obviously not ready to kill the game therefore we get the constant monthly EQ updates , the new characters to entice the summoners to spend monies & lately the constant tweaks to previously existing champions… all of these things are out of the average summoners control but we can control our time & our monies we invest … just my thoughts.
