More Insights & Reading

I highly recommend reading these three threads for more information and context on summoning odds:

If you’ve read them a million times before, you may consider reading them again before deciding on your budget for summoning. A little time spent deciding on how much money you want to risk on summoning goes a long way to avoiding disappointment, frustration, and regret later. :slight_smile:

Well, he looks drastically different from beta. Now he is just Odin with bigger numbers. Major disappointment. Not at all worth summoning for.

The same joke as Frigg lol

Cursed Odin and 20 characters!

Wtg, lazy devs, just a straight up buff $$$$

They changed it. Not worth summoning at all.

Lol was just about to say the same thing rofl

Although still my favorite character from the past the costume makeover is far below than what I would expect from a new costume. :sob: So I agree it’s not worth it!!!

I believe he will be top META hero as it is :slight_smile: WATCH!

Shame my leftover tokens werent able to snatch him.
Fighter talent is huge on this boy, he can go tank and bust you open quick while buffing allies extensively.

You wont go yellow vs yellow tank :slight_smile:

It was possible to vote in the poll before the hero was released, based on beta information. Looking at votes, most of them as of now were made on the basis of beta information, and not the final hero in the game. I know that it is possible to change the vote, but how many would do that? @PlayForFun perhaps it would be better to wait with the polls until the hero is released. Recently there are numerous changes between beta and game, so if people vote on beta basis, the polls can be misleading.

I believe this is no longer correct now that Costume Odin has been released live drastically different than this?

Clearly votes were based on Beta stats and specials, to which is no longer relevant. Require some reset on this thread with regards to what has just been released.

big downgrade
i never had odin and this costume doesn’t interest me now

i think the votes need to be reset as it is misleading now and SG will think he is good.

The idea if same colour tile dependency is a failure on attack

The revision on Odin costume is a joke lol. Same as Frigg costume. Terrible move by SG.

I think this is the best Odin i’ve ever seen. Current one is on bench. I’m not pulling till Heim gets featured. Hé! He’s better than the fish!

Straight up paid hero buff. What a joke. My Odin has been benched for some time now, and what, the devs expect people to pay to bring him up to speed?

3 Likes

A cOdin that made him variable-speed is one thing. But… spending in order to very slightly increase his numbers — depending on the tiles on the board — and change him to Fighter? (Possibly at the expense of having to re-path his emblems?)

It doesn’t help that cOdin’s art is… while not a cFrigg debacle, still IMO a downgrade from how awesome he looks in original form

I have the following question:
If Odin before the final release had a beta ability, people had received it with joy and in the survey you could see clearly how they saw it as a step up from other costumes… Why has Zynga considered turn him into an UNTESTED hero like they already did a few months ago with Frigg’s costume?

I’m sorry but I can’t understand it. Can someone explain it to me in a reasoned way? :smiling_face_with_tear:

Yes, it is now completely different.
I have updated the OP with the changes.

I have also reset the “primary purpose” poll too, and replaced the mana generation debuffer to buffer.
