HoundofShadow said: The key points are:3) Latest and Vintage will merge. This is both positive and negative depending on where you are in the game. In return, featured 4* will get 10 to 20x increased odds in Heroic Tokens. It's like back to the good old days.
Above the door on the way into the 'dev' room is the inspirational quote:
"If it ain't broke, fix it!"
Here to echo others comments, the vaulting solution that's been in place for a while has been widely accepted and appreciated by the community. It provides focus for roster development for newer players and makes covering the constant chain of new characters a reasonable task. It also means the newer characters get some level of power gain relatively quickly to bring them in line with already champed 4s while not completely blocking out the old 4s. All positives of the current system.
So here is another mis-step, a mild increase of odds on a few select stores, great, but a shift in the draw set-up a much bigger slip. Well done 'devs' you've hit your mandate for the day again!

Spiritclaw said: More 4*s out of event tokens is good. As for the rest of it, gotta wonder why. Are they planning to reduce the number of new characters who are 4*s? That would make the latest 4* concept a bit awkward....

How could it not be perceived as a positive thing? This is exactly what the forum has been demanding since vaulting was first introduced last March.We want equal access to all characters. Now we have it. Who cares if it takes a thousand legendary pulls to cover a new 4*?Let them eat cake.

I was actually warming to Vaulting before they ended it, but I thought the 50% Latest/50% Classic was an elegant compromise. It definitely let you get your latest 4*s up to snuff much faster, while still increasing your roster overall.
I really don't think I like this - they're not substantially increasing the flow of 4* covers to players as far as I can tell, and instead they're drastically cutting back on the Latest in favor of the classic. Maybe returning to full dilution? I can't tell. TBH, this is very confusing.
