Not really digging that raven design, especially since they're using the Teen Titans VA. Would've rather they just added the TT Raven design instead, but tbf it looks a lot better in game than the promo art. Also, finally, Marceline!!! New main alert

wait wait wait... what do they mean by TWO battle passes...? cmon, man, stop.

so... they're removing the fighter currency (going forward, like how they removed character tickets)? Am I reading this right?

We'll be introducing Fighter Road XP, a new type of XP that can be collected by players in matches, special events, or via direct purchase. If a player is really itching to get their hands on a specific character, they can still choose to purchase instantly with remaining Fighter currency or with Gleamium. Keep in mind that fighter currency will no longer be available in-game and can only be used should a player have a leftover surplus of the currency. Finally, the bulk of the roster will be available to test out and play in the Lab to help make sure players are fully satisfied with their choices before they invest time and resources into a character that does not quite fit their playstyle.

yea, not a fan of characters shifting over to costing gleam. I was just complaining about too many things requiring gleam, this just makes it worse. If anything was scrapped, it should've been the perk currency, thats straight up useless.

It appears so, yes.
That change can work depending on how long is the grind for each character, since after some time it takes a lot to get fighter currency for new players ... if they balance this right

like the example in the screen ... 6k per character seems like MUCH better than depending on people toasting you.

Curious to see what they will do with Toasts and character levels that give fighter currency.

Yeah, Fighter's Road was sorta leaked as being their solution for making it easier to get characters as the roster balloons in size for new players. Curious how it will feel for newbies, but Fighter Currency was super good value and honestly pretty underrated in it's current implementation, even if it did require a lot of playing the game. I was pretty much set for all future characters if they kept giving it out at the cadence they were giving it out, but it looks like they want to halt that a bit and leave more avenues open for people to spend money.

You are not seeing the full picture

Fighter's Road might give you character stuff ON RIFTS

Rift farming helping unlock characters ... think about this

On paper it could potentially be better (and I think for new players it probably will be). That said, the last time they made a change to progression in hopes of making "the journey" more rewarding it made things even grindier, so consider me skeptical lol.

Yeah, I've been sitting on 37,000 FC (and growing) with the whole roster unlocked. Never bought anyone with gleamium, but I did have the whole roster when the beta ended.

Figured it was going to change.

I'm really curious how many characters we get this season. They already showed two, Raven is confirmed to be part of the Fighter Road (and gets added to Fighter Road next week Friday), which means she's not the one tied to the battlepass. So, assuming theres still a character tied to the battle pass, and it's Marceline, she should be out next week as well. No way they just drop both characters for the season right in the beginning with nothing else till the new year... right? Maybe at least one more, announced close to the VGAs?
