We're reviewing this tomorrow, we decided not to hotfix it until we know exactly what we want to do. The issue which we perceive is this becoming really toxic 2 weeks from now when everyone has weapon specialist/recall with players crashing each other.

We're considering preventing GWD KC from going down for everyone

We're considering doing nothing

And we're considering a few other options too

We're also aware about relic-regret and we want to find a solution which doesn't cause this if possible

Decisions like this are hard and we do so with the good of the League in mind and it's not a decision we'll make lightly. We're reading all your feedback on this and will take it into account when we make the decision.

We aren't going to proceed with the discussed changes, instead we'd like to take the time to think of a better solution.

We expect God Wars to get busier and busier as the League progresses. We anticipate a lot of crashing with Last Recall, particularly combined with Weapon Specialist. It's not that we want to nerf Last Recall specifically, we're happy with the relic's 'power', but we wanted to try to pre-empt a lot of crashing and annoyance.

That led to the proposal discussed on stream. Understandably there was a lot of backlash against the proposal because, to be honest, it wasn't totally fleshed out.

We're going to discuss it again tomorrow!
