February brings with SO MANY activities, not just a standard Side Quest. Please see below for all your activities and let us know which piece of content you’re most excited about!
Side Quest: Listen to Your Ironheart
Love can be tough, so some people need a suit of armor around their tender hearts. Luckily Ironheart is on the scene and is looking to help out some lovelorn Champions by building their own special romance-seeking-suits. Gather materials for these suits in Shattered Ironheart Rifts, by cracking their code with Heart-Coded Keys and help these couples in conflict discover the love that was there all along!

Removed Champions (The Cut List)
The following champions have been added to the Cut list for Incursions:
The following champions have been added to the Cut list for Incursions:
Void:
- Due to the large number of buffs that can place Debuffs on the players champion we’ve decided to remove Void from all of the pools moving forward. The unavoidable Damage he does creates an unfair challenge.
Mephisto:
- The damage from his aura in higher Zones scales too aggressively while also granting him power. There is a high possibility that Mephisto will get stuck in an endless Special loop with his Aura mechanic, due to that we felt the challenge didn’t fit our mode even in the higher Sectors.

Comments
Very much hope I'm wrong tho
Can this be confirmed so i can decide whether to push for valiant this month or wait.
I have a Namor and a Namor dupe, hope no more Namors for me.
(Presuming it is one time only for each room, but hopefully they are stacked on to the regular room rewards?)
There is a "Temporary Filter Tags added for Feb listing all these champions in-game on the champion select screen. Making it easier to sort these champions out. And the tags are red and pink."
