Why are the Chinese heroes the enemies? Shouldnât it be the animal heroes which makes a lot more sense?
The story goes all the past animal heroes are invited to contest in a race, including the new ones. Only 2 are selected and crowned champions. It is match fixed and we strike a deal with the rabbit and tiger to take down the opposition so that they can be the winners. Which is why the stages exist, to kill the other animal heroes. YesâŠweâre hitmen for this.
I mean⊠someone made the decision to make the S1 ratio 99.5% of all summons, in a vast departure from previous portals. I think itâs reasonable to ask why.
And just to be clear: Iâm not necessarily against the âletâs have a new season, because it means a chance to have a new month of seasonal sales offers evenâ sort of thing, as thatâs separate from the portal per se. I mean ⊠Kalevala last year had a full spread of heroes and similar portal summoning odds to usual seasons.
(Having said that, I feel that the game certainly doesnât need to accelerate the overall pace of new hero releases, because of general exponential power rush and because of QC issues with releases. But accomplishing this by having new heroes only be accessible to those willing to chase particularly terrible odds?)
In this seasonal, it really is the portal and its odds that really stand out as⊠what?!
In general, I would say that this could well be a reason for the portal to change the odds. However, I might argue that going from â21.5% chance of any seasonal hero, even smallerâ to â0.5% chance of any seasonal heroâ is less âtinkeringâ and more âchainsaw, flamethrower, then nuke it from orbit just to be sure.â
Itâs such a drastic change that itâs not clear what itâs supposed to be testing, unless the âtinkering of the oddsâ here actually means
This event is now live and on going.
