You said you'd pull for Monkey too, look how that turned out.
He was mildly useful killing chasm, now he will be fully useful killing kangs.

Did the devs confirm the changes they will make to immortal characters? I am trying to understand how good Kang will be against iHulk/chasm. Will it work to send chasm away and ihulk won't revive and Kang wins?
I am just curious, as it won't really matter, since I am all in on Kang. The next question is...how good is Hit Monkey? Is it worth to oull for Kang now, or wait for something better?

Two questions, that I don’t know have been answered yet.
1) is away working like it’s supposed to with the revive bros yet? (stay down when the other is away)
2) Any plans to change the 5* so he’s NOT getting AP when tiles expire? Could someone ask this in Discord since the devs don’t seem to answer questions here?
I’m itching to pull a lot for Kangers so I have a higher health blue man group, but would like to know if they are going to change the power to match the wording or the wording to match the power.

Does the 5* get AP when a tile expires?
It says "destroyed" in the text.0 -
Right. The 3* says when tiles expire he gets 2 blue. That is working as intended.
The 5* says when countdowns are destroyed he gets 2 blue AP. However, he is getting AP for countdowns expiring. So it is working the way the 3* version is written, not the way the 5* is written.

Huh. He does, just tested.
OK Yeah that should be fixed.0 -

I can't remember the name but the female 4* who synergises with Luke Cage/Iron Fist gives burst heal even when fortified cd expires, even though it said triggers when fortified tiles are matched or destroyed, and it has been like this before BCS took over.

Nope, it means that expire could mean destroy. Just like how matching tiles is also considered destroying tiles.

Hmm. If my Netflix subscription expires it doesn't tend to explode when doing so. The milk goes past it's use by date and the fridge isn't splattered with a destroyed milk bottle. The English doesn't follow too well for expires = destroys. But then MPQ is a law unto itself.

1 showed up in the bug forum as iHulk reviving when Chasm was away. The devs said they would fix it, so we think if a toon is away a reviver can not revive (except iShulk her mechanic is different)
2 no idea at all the wording is ambiguous. If a tile expires is it destroyed? It’s a strange semantic catch.
BCS said they wanted clarity on definitions I wish they would just follow through.

Yeah, at some point they need to go through all these descriptions and fix ambiguous wording. Didn't someone find like 8 synonyms for "steal?"
I wouldn't take "Destroy" to mean "Expire" in other power descriptions.
0 -
And then do the same in all the other languages!
Because MPQ supports lots of languages I suspect this has ended up being a lot hard to do than we all think it should be because some words in English have no equivalent in other languages and vice versa so getting a consistent description across all languages is hard.

Didn't they just give up translating at some point? I've seen screenshots where a few things are translated and there's huge blocks of English text in there.

I don’t think they are synonymous. Sort of like how matching is a type of destroying but the reverse isn’t true, maybe expiring is a form of tile destruction as well. That would make sense, because the five star would be more powerful than the three (as it should be). Do we have other characters aside from Misty where an effect is supposed to happen when a countdown or special tile is destroyed?

Iceman.
His blue is his selling point for running him with Jane.
Also, Xfool.
Like, for 4* Deadpool purple there are two different effects for match - do damage - and expire - do nothing.So yeah they're definitely not synonymous.

Iceman says when YOU destroy a countdown, X happens. The countdown expiring is not YOU destroying it.
Misty and Kang state when A countdown is destroyed X happens. I’m guessing that a countdown expiring results in its destruction, even if it is not a specific team doing the destroying (which is what happens when it expires).
Did I solve this da Vinci code?

I have a feeling that you've just spent more time thinking about this than they have.
That's not a "look, they're terrible/dumb/out of the loop/whatever" either -- this is just the kind of thing that we're way more plugged into than 95% of other players, and I wouldn't expect them to think about it all that much.

Well I'm pretty sure they didn't go through the wording on all 400+ chars they inherited when took over, yeah.
I'd expect them to be consistent with their own characters though.
If both Kangs are supposed to do the same with Countdowns, they should have the same text.0
