    The quoted line is from Helreið Brynhildar, aka "Brynhild's Hel-Ride", which stars Brynhildr, and mentions that she lived with valkyries. And one alternate spelling of Brynhildr is "Brunnhilde", which is the spelling used by Marvel for the hero Valkyrie's real name.

    If it's literally anyone else, then the devs are going to need a new clue.
    JHawk wins the thread.

    A lot of speculating about who our next upcoming 4* is, I’m more curious about this “upcoming feature”. Any guesses, ideas, wishes, etc.?

    Dream big MPQers!
    Last time i tried to guess an upcomming feature or event i was correct and thrown in jail.

    So i will guess things i know are wrong. They are adding a 7th color to the game.
    We're finally getting octarine!?

    If you were the eighth son of an eighth son, you’d have known that octarine is already in game.

    "Ever with grief and all too long Are men and women born in the world; But yet we shall live our lives together..." —Brynhild's Ride to Hel.        So many of you will think Valkyrie.        I say it's Hela.

    Okay. Not going to lie. That would be awesome. And I would pick Shuri as my ultra champ please.

    I wonder if they go for MCU or comics version Valkyrie.  Brunhilde, comics Valkyrie, was supposedly the one that saved MCU Valkyrie from a spear in that flashback.

    What's Changed:
    • In preparation of an upcoming feature, the Character Info screen on the Steam version of the game matches the mobile version of the screen.
    Anyone have a screenshot of what this screen currently looks like for steam users? Wonder what the change is and if it could hint at the upcoming update.

    Brigby are you able to find out whether this change to the Steam UI is a temporary measure during the feature implementation or a permanent downgrade?

    Well the update has just gone through and frankly it shows a pretty hefty disregard for the user experience of steam users to push this out.
    Previously we had everything we needed on a single screen, great!  Now only a third of my screen is actually used and I have to click through multiple useless screens every time I want to shuffle a champs powers around.

    I can understand the desire to maintain a single interface across platforms, but to go from what we had to this is pretty unacceptable.  If for whatever reason they *had* to shift to match the mobile UI then couldn't they at least have the screen display multiple panes at once so we could make use of our extra real estate.
    The steam interface is absolutely awful.. genuinely shocked this went through. I can't fathom why this 'new feature' needed the change.

    I chose the steam version because i preferred the UI to mobile, now 4 years later it's just been taken away and I can't even swap to mobile.

    Completely agreed.  I desperately hope this change to the steam interface is temporary.  It's awkward, a horribly inefficient use of screen real estate (as opposed to the old one, which was pretty nice), and now takes more steps to do simple things like adding champion levels.
