Despair Ain’t What it Use to be….

maa_despair_no_moreBack in the day resurrection and healing ruled the meta.    Players had trouble beating teams with Rescue and Phoenix.   That was until the effect “Despair” came around.  With this effect a hero could no longer heal nor resurrect.  So when they died they stayed dead!    The nice thing about despair was that it was also irremovable and stayed on for what seemed like 3 rounds.

Now, that is beginning to change.  Once again the meta will shift back to healing because Despair was nerfed yesterday in a stealth patch making it a “Dark Effect” that can be removed by certain characters or items.    In case you missed the previous post – Cloak and Dagger is completely immune to it.

Here is a list of characters/items that now can either remove despair or immune to it.

Character/Item Method
 Karolina Dean Icon Large 1 Karolina Dean Removes Despair through her 2nd level buff Prismatic Shield
 Cloak and Dagger Icon Large 1 Cloak & Dagger Complete Immune to Despair and other Dark Effects (like agony)
 Faiza Hussain Icon Large 1 Faiza Hussain Removes Despair through her 4th level buff Bright Blade
  Generalist Flight Suit Removes Despair through 3rd level buff Plague Safeguard
 Crystalline Dream Crystalinne Dream Removes Dark Effects (including Despair)

How do you feel about this change?

Are you glad they nerfed Despair?

On This Day – August 13th in MAAs past

Two years ago today, the same day the Facebook Group Avengers Bros was founded, the discussion of the day was mostly about the newly introduced “Pre PVP”, both on the FTH Podcast and the Marvel Insiders article.

Then exactly 1 year later another Marvel Inside Article was released talking about the upcoming release of Chapter 9.   The article does mention raising the level cap to 15, whereas the most recent Insider article does not.   This most likely means that we will not get the raise of Level 16 with Chapter 11, however it still may come with the soon to be released Chapter 12.

Breaking News-Cloak and Dagger Now Immune to Despair!!

maa_despair_agaon_dark_effectsThats right!   A stealth patch was recently done balancing (or nerfing) certain characters and weapons.  However, the item that stands out the most is that both Despair and Agony are now considered “Dark Effects”.  As you recall Cloak and Dagger is immune to it.

maa_cloakanddagger_passives

So if you noticed in your PVP battle why Cloak and Dagger was no longer being affected by despair you know why.

Marves Insiders Articles and Chapter Releases

MAA_Chapter11_coming_soonWell, as we posted yesterday Chapter 11 is due to drop any second!   Or it also can drop tomorrow and most likely will drop tomorrow, but we are hoping it will drop TONIGHT as I am sure all of you are.

Now that Marvel Insiders posted its latest article promoting the Chapter, give us even more reason to believe SOONER not later.   During the last two chapter drops the pattern shows that Chapter Drops happen 1 day after the Insiders article is published.  It wasn’t always the case.  Back in 2014, the article came far after the Chapter was released.   See Chart below:

Chapter Release Date Insider Article Date Days Before Days After
Chapter 6 7/2/2014 7/8/2014 6
Chapter 7 10/16/2014 10/20/2014 4
Chapter 8 3/13/2015 3/2/2015 11
Chapter 9 8/14/2015 8/13/2015 1
Chapter 10 2/23/2016 2/22/2016 1

>>CLICK HERE TO SEE CHAPTER RELEASE TIMELINE<<

So, if we go by this pattern then most likely Chapter 11 will drop tomorrow August 12, 2016.    If we are proven wrong, then GREAT!    What do you think?    In the past Spec Ops have been known to have been released the same day the Insider Articles are published, so who knows?

MAA_THE_KNIGH_FTH-101The Knight was part of the very first “Set” that complimented each other in battle.  The Chess set was the very first one.  However, in the beginning set pieces were not introduced together.  In fact the Knight was introduced separately FIRST before the Chess set was introduced!

The Results are In for the Level 16 Poll!!

Ok here are the results from the poll.   The results includes the votes not only from this website but from various Facebook Groups below.

Yes No Not Yet
Avengers League 24 92 12
Marvel Avengers Alliance : MAA 23 83 0
Marvel Knights 9 44 6
FTHAgents Only Lounge 4 16 6
Sky Eyes of MAA 19 73 3
MAAtimes Website 79 171

maa_poll_results_for_level_16Now, it has become quite clear that the majority of players don’t welcome this change.  About 72% at this point.  However, this now begs the question of Level 16 were to drop tomorrow would that kill the game for many players?    So I have a new poll I would like you to answer and again feel free to leave comments.

What will you do if Level 16 drops tomorrow?
