    4* Gor!   Would be have been better if he was 5*.   I assume it will be this cover?

    If it is Gor I would have loved for him to be a 5 star. The 5 star villains are woefully under represented. Villains usually are a large threat when they first appear(then they become jobbers), sometimes requiring a team-up to take down…so based on comic book logic I feel there should be more 5-star villains. That is just my thoughts on villains needing more love. Can’t wait if it is Gor!

    Gorr, Gorr, Gorr!

    Unfortunately, he's going to be a 4*.

    Well that's disappointing.  Idk why I read it as if it was something more than just the usual grind 🤷‍♂️

    Is this confirmed?  Or is like Dakar arena with LR style timing?  How many days is this running and specificly

    1.  Is this like version 1 Sakar arena where you lock into the same lb and same players for every cycle or like

    2.  Version 2 where you get a fresh lb with different players each cycle?

    Deadpool vs MPQ is on the schedule.  I didn't see a KK pvp unless it updated in the last hour or so.  I'm not sure what the Sakar arena was, before my time I guess, but that sounds like a ton of fun.

    I’m not gonna spoil the fun for when you learn how sakar arena is setup! Hehe. Just know the format rules are gonna be a big deal.  I hope they will accept public feedback and have enought time to make whatever adjustments need to be made.  

    I will patiently wait for the official notice of the event and the explanation of the format.  I have very vivid memories of the last two sakar runs

    Why would they run Sakar for a 5 that's already in Latest?
    A bit over optimistic just because of "pvp arena"

    I read that KK TV show had the lowest viewership (>800k) after What If... Marvel probably ask the dev to do something to promote KK more, and that's why we have a special KK pvp event. The month of July is largely filled with characters who held Mjolnir, so she is definitely out of place.

    After updating to 256, I feel that it's weird to still see Demiurge Logo on the loading screen and Demiurge is still the dev under credit. Is BCS not going to change the logo?

    I see 5* Gorr being thrown around here and in reddit. However, the next release is a 4*. Are those players in the denial stage or do they know something else? 5* Gorr would be awesome but the next release is a 4*.

    Priorities. And likely waiting to get together a cohesive art vision before a rebrand which can't be easily fixed if done wrong.

    I can't wait to see what comes up next. Sakar arena sounds interesting

    Think making Gorr a 4* is a miss.  Needed to be a 5* villain.  I mean, we got Big Wheel…… and he wasn’t even in a MCU movie.

    Sakaar Arena I think looms larger in our memories than it deserves, and we'd find that out if it were run again. A whole weekend of non-stop short-duration lightning round PVP events is pretty exhausting to invest time in. I do kind of like the attempt at doing something different and interesting on the PVP side of things though.

    Wasn't the first Sakaar Arena run also bugged? Can't imagine we get that again, second time around wasn't all that different to Lightning Rounds from memory.

    I don't know if it was bugged, or just too generous. I seem to recall the first run gave you brackets of 500 people, which made joining in and hitting a few seeds very easy to place well, and then the second run they expanded it back out to 1,000 person brackets and I want to say reduced the rewards on top of that, so it was just a slog of never ending LRs for several days.
