This isn't a bug they were fixing, it was a flat out feature change which you do not have the option to decline and is inherently different from what you purchased. Just to be clear none of these changes effect me, really, I was actually going to buy some thor blue covers but due to the iTunes outage yesterday I couldnt...I'm not buying them now nor will I buy any covers ever again because they are subject to change at whim. Nothing short of a flat out refund of every cover for that character at full price (unless they have traceability to all the hp used for shields, health packs, purchased covers, ISO purchased, etc) would a remedy be considered fair for those that actually purchased covers IMO. My thoughts exactly. It's the old "Bait & Switch" a very unethical business practice that I will not be a victim of. Fool me once....well you know how it goes. As I said in my earlier more heated post, D3 dev should be ashamed of themselves today. But I can just see them back there goin Who shall we do next?

As long as you're listening to the forum when it comes to things like "Magstique is broken", "IF and GT are too powerful", how 'bout listening to the forum when it tells you that whoever designed these **** changes shouldn't be allowed anywhere near design decisions again.

That is, of course you can nerf him, and then expect to see a lot of watch the paint dry games involving those two characters as this eliminates the only guy who can kill them reliably, so you'd likely have to take the mirror to not get ran over by those two's oppressive passives, but then their passive counters themselves exactly so it's going to lead some very boring game. Well, I guess there's still Iron Fist, he should be able to beat either of those two quite reliably with just his attack tile.

Daken and Blade are also very reliable and speedy killers of Loki/The Hood.

I was very disappointed to not see her on the list (in fact when I saw the announcement, it was all I was looking for.) I have a lv200 IW, and during the women's tournament, she was buffed to 300. Didn't touch her at all. She's that useless in comparison to the others, and she's a 4*. I would really like to yell that she should be the #1 priority in changes after this wave.

I was about to buy a stark salary tom.. Thank goodness they did this today!

One column of board shake doesn't make up for that. And Lightning Rod is single-target burst healing that doesn't even break 2000 damage -- garbage, plain and simple. Which I guess I shouldn't complain about too much because it means his PvE fights will get easier.

"Hey everyone lets all buy the most expensive item, oh wait they are nerfing the tiny kitty out of Bagman, never mind, that will show them." Problem is you can say I was going to, but... even when you had no intention of.

If we eliminate all abilities that are eventually nerfed, Call the Storm was the standard for overpowered until X Force came along.
