This is One of major issue, SG pumping out new heroes much stronger than previous months, that is the cycle. Releasing new family members next year means that you wonāt have 2023 Lunar heroes being competitive and in the same team as 2024ā¦
Basically, the family member bonus is useless?
Yea i really sont see that happening lol. But other seasonal heros sure. But 2 heros may be due to how people seem to chase new heros reguardless look, so they are banking on peoples lack of self control.
Except they will give these 2 a buff to make them more equal to their family and potentially lead to more people wanting them. They buffed other heros who were featured before their familys if i remember right the styx and gargoyles.
I think the members of the top 20 alliances are motivated to try for this hero. Lets say 20x30 members and a 100$ average summoning budget gives you 60k $ from this group alone. Others will try too, in bigger numbers but eith lower budgets. So I think after the fees for Apple and Google they willl make more than half a million $ revenue from this portal aloneā¦
Yes, but the cycle between Styx portal it Gargoyels portal is usually 1-3 months, not a whole year.
It will take take several years before all 6 heroes are released. Or do I miss some puzzle
Maybe I donāt understand the family bonusā¦ even if you spend a lot and get both Lunar now, you donāt have family bonus until you get Lunar from another year? Or will this yearās Lunar give each other the family bonus?
I wouldnāt mind getting the new lunar heros but Iām not getting my hopes up that they will be released by the same specials as prompted or with decent oddsā¦I will wait and see before spending this event portal my luck has been sad at bestā¦
Idk, a 0.25% chance just to get a 5* glorified greymane. Or even THE original glorified greymane, Fenrir. Except this tiger can also shut down minions with no effort
It occurs to me that perhaps this portal, if these odds stand, is perhaps designed to be a deliberate āI am a whaleā declaration?
I mean, with a 99.5% chance of getting only (uncostumed) S1
heroes, arguably almost the only people spending money here will be those willing to chase one of the new releases pretty hard (assuming someone only wants either one of the new releases, it would take roughly 140 pulls to have a 50% chance of randomly getting either one, or over 270 pulls to have a 75% chance) ā and while, of course, presumably EHTs could result in one of the new heroes, with such poor odds almost everyone will save their EHTs for better odds of something new, i.e. literally any other seasonal portal (even a player who actually has every single seasonal hero so far may be more likely to draw a newly released hero in an upcoming portal than to get one of the Lunar releases).
The key here, unlike other ā0.5% chance of a newly released heroā portals, is that the 99.5% is uncostumed S1, not even āmixed grab bag of previous and possibly-still-new-to-you heroesā, soā¦ it only makes sense to summon here if either you have a hero-chasing budget even at these odds and/or literally nothing else in the game is new to youā¦
ā¦which means that actually having either of these new Lunar heroes is pretty arguably and effectively an in-game āI am a whaleā sign (significantly moreso than buying and displaying the PoV border-around-the-avatar).
