Does the Fusion symbol on Champion thumbnails actually mean anything?
To my knowledge, there is no explanation in the in-game FAQs about the aqua/light blue symbol at bottom center on some Character thumbnail portraits.
I could find no place in-game that explained that symbol. I had to search online for an explanation, and even then, it was only one sentence and said the symbol indicated that particular Champion is used for a Fusion. What is this blue swirl looking symbol on these champions, think I missed something? : RaidShadowLegends (reddit.com)
However, in the Fusion guides (both in-game and elsewhere), it shows Champions being fused who do not have that symbol on their thumbnail portrait.
So if any Champion can be fused, what's the point of the symbol? Is it a formerly useful element of the game that is now meaningless, like an appendix or a third nipple? Or does it actually serve a useful purpose? In other words, why should I treat Champions with the symbol differently than those without it?
I am only about a week into the game, and I'm hoping there aren't many 'blind spots' like this in the game FAQs.
