  I’ll leave him as is

  He never came to mind whenever I was looking for counters to those match-ups he can't do now so I will continue to use him as I normally do

  Honestly me too. But seriously, they should have told us they were gonna change how Shocker’s mechanics work

  I wanted to but I can't since they're not going to give me back my t2 dust, it's completely pointless. Ranking him down would be stupid cause I'd be basically throwing t2 dust to the garbage.

  Why are people disagreeing with you. This is technically true, since Miike said he can't refund ascension dust

  I guess they don't have enough brain cells to understand what I typed 🤷‍♂️

  Not a big deal I think. He's still a very powerful attacker and very annoying defender. Rank him down for only 2-3 fights? Hell no

  I always had multiple counters for Maestro and whatever other champs Shocker was good at, but I also pulled Red Skull from a Titan recently, so he took Shocker's spot in my deck. My 7* Shocker is also unawakened, so I'll probably just rank down and keep the resources in case I want to r3 Red Skull soonish, or just keep them as backup in case I want to take him up again at some point.

  I have both guardian and warlock unduped at r1, maybe if I dupe one of them I pull the trigger on the rdt. It really pains me to see the shocker I draft and the maestro they draft and knowing i can’t use him.

  I’ll rank him down

  i ranked up the 6 star before pulling the 7 star so i’ll be ranking the 6 star down, completely unrelated to the nerf

  I only have a 6 star at R4, but I will probably take him down since he never gets used anyway

  I’ll rank him down

  Since I got the 7* after taking the 6* up, I'll happily recoup the resources there.

  I said in that thread that I’ll be surprised if anyone actually takes advantage of the RDT. I’m surprised by the amount that said they will. I was thinking duped iron man but still haven’t decided.

  Only have a 7R1, and that one gets kills in BG on defense every day. Might even rank him up, when i’m done with exploring act 8.

  Shocker is awesome why would I rank him down? Because he is no longer good for a fight I had no idea he was good for, against a champ I rarely face and has other good counters?

  Honestly me too. But seriously, they should have told us they were gonna change how Shocker’s mechanics work

  It's not a change to shocker though. It's a fix to how glancing works.

  The fix directly affected shocker. Think of it as similar to the Zemo Root nerf

  My 6 star r3 never gets used so he is going down. Has nothing to do with the nerf

  @EdisonLaw We didn't get tickets for Zemo. We got them for Kraven. So think Kraven.

  I can tell you from historical evidence, a majority that use them will either Rank Up a higher rarity Shocker, or just rank down and then re-rank their same Shocker during a level up event. This won't be the case for everybody, but is what has happened for the majority of Champion specific Rank Down tickets that have gone out in the last... I want to say 5 years?

  Except we didn't get tickets for zemo. That was kraven. and zemo still wrecks just fine. Moleman still works just fine too. Shocker will be ok too.

  Yeah of course he’ll be ok, it’ll only affect him in a few matchups
