Patch Preview: New Heroes, New Skills, and a Grand Tournament!

[Hellion]

First off Specwar of server 1 or Coldlunar of server 2 will be the ultimate winner. They have everyone beat by about 6m+power.

Power isn't everything.

Dragonian is a much better strategical and tactical player than Coldlunar.

Cold only relies on brute strength.

One thing that allows players to step up against people of much greater power in the arena is the ability to tinker with formations and setups. I can beat players 1/4 stronger than I am (2-3mil power) in the arena that I have trouble beating in the wild or in revenge. I'll be curious to see how this works out in the multi elimination tourney, where we get opportunities to tweak, but not experiment.

Also, I remain curious about how they'll work with the imbalance that someone on server 1 has compared to someone on 91. Will there be a handicap of some sort? Power ups a la WB/Rag/HP?

Execution will be everything.

I've seen someone ask for something like this cross-server arena thing once or twice, but nobody really paid the idea much attention except perhaps the tynon team. Can't wait to see this success (or blunder) come late Novemberish.

good news, but i also wonder wich time frame is in order for this

[NKat]

sounds great but please tell us ur going to fix a few of the bugs still hanging around in existing areas of game.. like the joint realm for ignis/mud/widow... and the error message we get constently when fighting widow to name one or two of the most annoying ones... but new heros is a must imo as game is getting stale and i know a few of the big players are bored stiff with game as it stands at moment..

All this "So and so will win" and "power isnt everything" is detracting from discussing the good and bad of what dawn has presented,and the fact that theres still lack of information form the Tynon team. In fact this entire cross server championship announcement was probably meant to distract us. So How about we argue who is best in another thread, and leave this one for commenting on the actual post etc. And I also suggest we say firm in our requests for more information from the tynon team, especially concerning bug fixes.

I, for one, will reserve judgement on the championship until i see it. Think it sounds very interesting and can't wait to get it. As for the heroes ~ any eta? Just wish there was ever a clue to time.

I share the same sentiments as you regarding the championship.

From a logical viewpoint it doesn't seem possible or fair. Taking the top players from each server, how can it be justifiable for someone of 40m power fighting someone of 5m power, both of which are their server's respective top players.

When put like that, it raises a good point. Maybe instead of a cross server event, splitting it up slightly inline with server age.
