As for the Broadmaw's Fusion, the champion may seem not that great to the players who already own good Epics and Legendaries (and even for these guys Broadmaw could be a nice addition for strengthening teams, considering the fact that Faction Wars are coming and there is a very good chance that the champion will be useful there). For new players, Broadmaw will be definitely useful. Besides, we are getting ready to launch yet another Fusion and this one will interest all of our players.
Fusions just mean that you are going to have a TON of people with Broadmaw, just like you do with Relickeeper. It doesn't fix the imbalances, and it doesn't fix the fact that players have NO choice what champions they play with outside of (what will eventually be) a small handful of fusion champions.
I love the undead, dark elves, and the darker side of games like this in general. Meanwhile, the only viable epic I had was Aothar, someone who is on the "heroic" end that I had NO interest in aesthetically at all whatsoever. However, since he was the best choice I had for clan boss, I had no choice but to play with a champion I had no interest in.
Fusions don't fix anything, unless you had so many fusions that people could customize their teams to an extent. This would mean at least 2-3 legendary/epic fusions in every single faction type. Then, you'd have to regularly rotate which ones players could get to keep from funneling everyone down. But funneling would still happen because...
That STILL won't fix the fact that if champions like Roshcard or Kymar ever became a fusion, 99% of all players would get him for their arena team because he is so OP. Players are still getting funneled in what they have to play with because of HUGE imbalances.
And then there is the issue that some champions have specific abilities that make them necessary. Like Apothecary used to be a must for clan boss for the speed boost. 95% of my clan used him. Now, Khatun is the new Apo, so now everyone is using her or on their way to maxing her out to do so. Funneling is not fun. Being able to choose who we play with because we like their look or their skills is fun.
I mean hell, even if you guys made it so that we could do some type of transmogrification that only we ourselves could see that made our champions look different just on our end, that would be great. At least we could make a team that we liked the look of, and being able to change transmogrification with a reasonable cost would DRAMATICALLY help player retention, as it would help end the redundancy. This could be easily done, and if only we ourselves saw our champions as differently from transmog, then it wouldn't confuse other players, because they would still see the champion for who they truly are.
Anyway, I wish you guys hadn't done that whole paywall scam, I really do. I really did love the game, the various champions, the various skills, etc. However, like others have said here, in your other post you linked to, and in many threads that have been deleted, I can't stick around after a company tries to scam me like that. To do so would just encourage the same behavior in the future.
And faction wars has been "coming soon" since February, five months ago now...
Oh, and one last thing... At the bare minimum, you guys should at least give players the ability to "block" specific factions they don't want. Even if it was just say 3-4 we could block at one time, it would at least give us a little more choice. This just came to mind when I remembered seeing "Dwarves" faction before I deleted. I have ZERO interest in overweight midgets.
Maybe in a few months or something I might take a look at the game again, but for now, you guys definitely need to lose a good portion of your player base for at least a little while to discourage scams in the future. And if I were to come back later on, I would never spend another dime on the game, not after what you guys tried to do to me with Foli.
