    Are you sure Operation Spider Silk has Knull. AGAIN. We just had him...

    We didn't have Knull for placement, only progression.
    This one might actually not be an error.
    Because there's the Boss after the PVE, so Knull will get skipped for prog.
    At least I assume so because who knows anymore.

    Ha ha boosted Chasm incoming, brace for it!

    maybe they nerf chasm before its boost week and hope no one notice ?
    things like remove first turn stun, nerf revive to not count any ressed ally and max 5 abyss tiles on board (at 5 covers), with 20% less health and 25% less base match damage... I know one can dream :'(

    Funny how trust has eroded so much so fast that now we question the official info.
    Not a good sign.

    Surely there must be a schedule scribbled on an empty pizza box shared on Reddit or something? A Discord singalong? "Pve timing has gone missing, you're just out of luck, now here's boosted Chasm coz we don't give a...sorry about the scheduling mix up!"

    Oh thank you, that's a relief!
    If they were to do things properly (LOL I know), what cover would that Boss event give? Magik? Or a classic 5? Do the Boss events ever give classic 5*s?

    Quick note, folks: the listed progression/placement sequence seems to be off, since M’Baku/Loki/Bullseye are featured (progression rewards) in the currently listed ngoing Infinite Pursuit.

    Also the next boss event is Gargantos and aren't there like 3 versions? Gargantos Heroic AND insane, Gargantos Heroic and Gargantos Sad Squiddly. Who knows which one we will get?

    Now seems like a great time to take a break from the game. ✌

    For the devs, trying to fiddle around with settings?
    I fully agree.

    In the Schedule there is a gap between Strange Sights and Lost in Time, the PVE Lost in Time could start one day earlier, in 4/23 because this event overlap two days with the boss event.
    There was already an bad overlap between The Hunt and Infinite Pursuit generating a gap between today and tomorrow.
    What do you think about this?
    Thank you.

    Too many 3* centered pvp's. More 4* and 5* please.

    What really concerns me about a lot of these issues lately is that at least in my opinion - they could be caught early by just having one person on the team who actually plays the game. All it takes is one person pulling the game up on their phone to see, "Oh snap, there's no event preview!" or "Hey, those event rewards don't match what we sent over the forum". Sorry if this has been said already.
