Glad to see this back.

Love that they're including rebalances on the calendar.
Hate that the only rebalance for September is...Prowler.

There's a ton of engineering work going into some surprises for the Anniversary, sacrifices had to be made. Or maybe Prowler just stole the code for the other rebalances. Take your pick.
How about a total rework for Loki that fits his character as a thief and trickster.
Purple- Use illusions to confuse enemy. Stun for x turns. (Passive) Steal health from stunned enemies. Green- Spring trap that sends enemy airborn. (Passive) Steal SAPs from airborn enemies. Black- Lies to convince enemy the true danger is elsewhere. Send enemy away. (Passive). Steal AP from Away enemies.

Idk if we'll ever see another character that sends enemies "Away", especially on a color other than Blue, but I like what you've done with Loki
Actually, you’re right. Can’t make Kang victories even easier. How about creates invincibility tile/ steals AP while invisible.
stylish kicks, collab with One Piece? Another gwen stacy? Some sort of shoe clue?

Let's hope it's Kick-Puncher
Y'know who does stylish kicks? Batroc Ze Leaper! Leap, leap, leap!
Stylish kicks makes me think America Chavez. Doesn’t she like kick portals to different dimensions in the comics?
And in response to DAZ’s comment above me, I’d love for it to be Batroc but let’s be honest, that guy couldn’t even spell stylish, let alone be it.

Stylish Kicks will somehow be another Spider-Man. We need more Spidey people!

It'll be the best Spidey character of all time, Rocket Racer!

Great! While we're on the topic of balance changes, I don't see one for Chasm listed either. That one's been "coming soon" for like 6 months -- any chance we'll see it this month?

They said "8 weeks"... 8 weeks ago.
Isn't Miles Morales known for his Stylish Kicks? Both his shoes, which were somewhat of a plot point in into the spider-verse and literally he's good at kicking and in a stylish way.

True and they are having this trend of giving us 3/5 for the sole 4* characters like Emma, Magik, Gwen
I genuinely don't know where you go with a 5/3 Miles. I love Miles and I'm not opposed to it but I really hope for the 10th Anniversary we get something a bit more exciting and original.

He could be the web tile partner that Gwenom so desperately needs

Sure but I don't see why that can't be another 5/3 release. We got the 4, the other versions can wait. Anniversary should be different but well we will find out not too long now. Even my first Anniversary gave us Gwenpool who is still utterly unique to this day.
‘Stylish Kicks’, whoever that is, is not the anniversary character. That’s the one after it.
