Complete character overhaul

Unknown

I think I already posted something like this before but anyway...

I think an overhaul of characters needs to happen. Strip out duplicates and the lazy gold characters (whatever "gold" actually is) and build in new characters.

You'd have the same colour abilities to collect and build so that mechanic of buying packs wouldn't change much. However, you can introduce customisation by buying new "covers" which is essentially a new skin.

For example you'd have 1 wolverine... not 3... then you could have something like the following:
- Classic costume - default - free
- Patch - available in shop - costs 250 hp (or something)
- X-Force - available in shop - costs £1.99/$1.99 (something cheap enough that people want to buy it)
- Insert additional costumes each for real money

Then, you could have special 1 off or premium costumes for £2.99/$2.99 that are rare. You could even give the paid for costumes a minor buff like the x-force custome gives an extra 2% damage per colour match or starts with 1 green ap or heal ability costs 1 ap less or something.

This way the community doesn't groan when yet another black widow or wolverine clone is released.

Obviously this would obliterate some peoples teams and new characters would have to be introduced but there is no shortage of characters to choose from so once the initial character is there (and the community refunded/rewarded with a like for like new character) dev's could keep adding new skins at will for little effort but potentially big payback.

I'm sure i'm not the only one who simply won't pay to win, but give me some customisable options and i'd be all over that.
