Relics are scary. They don't look so complicated, looks like another piece of gear that just has an ability on it, with some gems to socket into them. The worry for me is, thats alot of stuff. So you'll need a relic, per champion, ranked up per champion, with gemstones per champion all with the stats you want and rarity you want? Thats absolutely crazy, relics will likely be more scarce than gear & I'm going to be honest, this deminishes the effect of getting a new champion. Used to be, get a champion, rank it up, ascend it, mastery it, gear it and go. Now it's rank it up, ascend it, mastery it, gear it, glyph it, ascend the gear, get a soul, now get a relic? heh.. ok
Souls are already dictating which champions you use, especially in arena and Hydra. Does my head in, because they're still stupid hard to get, even after 2 years in the game.
@@JamesSmith-cf3md Yeah RSL is so fucking stingy on leggo books. I have like 50 leggos and only like 10 of them booked up because you don't get them enough. Compared to Watcher of Realms that gives legendary skill crystals like crazy. I have 70 legendary heros in that game and have most of them maxed out or most of the way. Can't stand how stingy Plarium is to promote spending..
I love that you kept it 100% real with your comments and feedback, and didn't just gloss over everything and say it is all amazing. I agree with you that a lot of this content is great but other stuff might not be.
To me, as a F2P player, this just seems like another way for spenders to overpower me. I haven't even beaten Amius yet and the soul thing is still being digested (even though it was introduced 1-2 years ago). Another system on top (if it gets monetized) will just mean me getting destroyed in every part of the game where I'd want to even have a chance of competing, not to talk about the complexity of the new boss. For reference, I'm a few stars off to getting Lydia in terms of progress and haven't gotten a single mythical champion yet.
And on your last question...please keep doing news updates. You bring a unique perspective (honest and candid) where other CC's feel a bit like Plarium Adverts at times. You also offer a heavy LA perspective to updates and enhancements..and with your FTP account this year you are also much more attuned to the PITA that a FTP effort entails.
The reaction to relics is such an end game whale perspective, like you want to play as little of the game as possible and the only focus is "having" to stay in top 100 arena... for 99.9999% of players it's fun new content, new progression options, new comps etc.. imagine actually playing the game is a good thing.
On relics...I am cautiously excited. Do agree it adds a new mountain of complexity, but really see it as a new way to build flexible champions. But I need to see what enhancements and capabilities they offer. Things like "Immune to Sheep" or "Ignore Block Damage" relics would be amazing and give some archived champions new life.
Overall hyped about the update. Power creep will be mad though. Not happy at all about Relics being tied to PVP modes, could have thrown some into Sintranos too. And CB clash is meh too - also appears we can only get fragments for the new mythical champion from those chests, which would be very annoying. Relics were added to SWGOH some time after I left. Went back in on a whim to check it out some time ago and it looked crazy.
Your video, as always, great. Awesome energy from the beginning. The news seemed good. Then came relics. Plarium haven't noticed yet that "new players" exist, and we need them. A new player today is showered with a crapton of stuff to learn. In my case, after three years and a half, that did it. Can't thank you enough, wouldn't have found out otherwise. I'm done with this. Thanks a lot for the vid mate, best CC by far.
Hate arena, most of the time the battle was decided once the champs were made based on the team and gear. At high level choice can matter but for most people in the normal brackets the choices are pretty standard and you win due to gear, team, and speed.
I like relics. I don't share your belief that I should be able to know if I'm going to win in arena before the match starts. I like the ability to customize. I'm not keen on farming materials though so that's my glass half empty thought.
Great feedback! So to clarify I don't think you should know you're going to win 100% of the time but I do think you should go into an arena match feeling confident based on effectively countering what someone is trying to do.
Thank you for giving us your opinion on the news update! I personally think you should continue doing news updates and new champ reviews and best builds for them. As this may bring you more subscribers, because not all of us are Krakens playing live arena or have basically every champ in the game to compete competitively in gold 3-4. Hydra has become boring since the nerf, unless you have a Trunda which I still don't after 4 yrs playing. Same goes with live arena no siphi or other op lego's and mythical champs. Despite spending upwards of 40k the last 4 years. I guess my acct has such bad RNG when pulling shards :( Anyways thank you again for your opinion of what's coming to Raid!
Appreciate the POV on big news events from someone who plays the game at a high level rather then someone catering to viewers who are early game or F2P.
Mate I think you nailed every point, I know you don't like hydra as much as arena. But it needs major fixes before instant battles. Relics, just more power creep and rng bs. Everything else is cool, including a planned approach to new clan boss, which does look sick. Hopefully this is plarium taking steps in the right direction and then don't get turned around. Who's Sir Nicholas ??? 😉
Watched this video on your channel instead of Raid's and I had a great time, thanks for the news review and your opinions on this! always a great time watching your channel Drock!
Watched the whole video. Impressed that you put your Arena focus aside and spoke up for the entire community. Background battles is the biggest win for me. Clash for the new boss is the worst for me.
I kinda of like raid because it's surprisingly complex but I also don't like the extreme layers of rng going with things like stoneskin strip RNG & Polymorph. I would prefer there were more fool proof ways to build things. Say lightning cage blessing guaranteed to protect a buff 100% when at 3 stack. Things like that which add a layer of complexity to strategic team building that discards having too many layers of coin flips. I hope they don't over monetize relic's or even worse double down on a sheep relic. It's also very curious how can they monetize relics when it drops from a clan boss. It's not like we can buy piece's of stoneskin gear to roll. Given their being bought as well there's a lot to consider.
I'm not worried about power creep. As if was ever going to catch up to +4 fully awakened Tarases or whatever. I'm excited we get some new toys to play around with. It's fun. Seems like most of the community stopped having fun. I didn't. Can't wait for new content.
Valid point! At this point the power creep is so large that it's impossible for non spenders or even low spenders to catch up. The question will be how does it affect game design going forward when it comes to attracting new players.
I don't think new player will have that many relics to play around to begin with. And I dont think it will be too complex. Its just more stats and some passive effects. People were panicking about Siege when it was announced and its not realy that complicated. Idk, maybe its just me but I can't wait to see some busted builds that are coming. Only thing I would like is if they would add an corresponding icon of the Relic to the champ icon in the arena. That way you kinda know what's coming and can potentially counterplay. As they did with blessings.
I dont think new players, or the vast majority of players generally, actually care about catching krakens who have spent 7 figures on the game. Most of us are simply playing a different game where you never even see the pay to win leaderboards.
Hell yeah tournaments should exist on Live arena! I used to play a mobile game that had tournaments we could actually see the fights of the krakens live and bet a currency on who would win! That would be awesome if they add someone like this
Relics sound very complicated in this video but after some getting used to they shouldn't be any more complex than any other feature in the game I'd imagine. I don't have a positive or negative opinion on them atm, it all depends on the implementation. More customization is good imo. I'm already annoyed that you have to play arena to get them though.
Relics definitely aren't the answer to anything wrong with this game. They're going to have a hard time attracting new players with so much complexity. And a game that stops attracting new players is not long for this world.
i excited about relics, as someone that has not even a dream of getting wixwell, and no matter what i do i cant increase my demon lord damage, i welcome some new element to make my guys actually strong enough to finally get my damage high enough to get the 1-key nightmare dream; but as pay to wins yal cant see from the non spender's point of view. My only issue with the new stuff like relics is the base requirement like energy still being the main determining factor and most rudimentary issue in how we even think to obtain this stuff, they need to make campaign for training your champions no energy required atleast and more circulation of energy at the least in bigger amounts.
They still need to let you view, upgrade & sell gear directly from the overflow, the forge and when winning it from battles. It's gonna MASSIVELY help with the constant gear inventory being full problem.
I still haven't farmed sand devil or shogun so haven't yet ascended gear enough, and now there is an extra layer of stat bloat for champs too... but I don't spend so I expect I will always be playing catch up and I enjoy playing so can't really complain, patch looks good
@@bigpoppadrockrsl I do enjoy this kind of content. Sorry I posted the first comment before I finished the video. I prefer the more honest approach people like yourself and Ash take to these types of videos. 👍🏻
I agree about relics. Im worried they will do "limited time" relics for live arena seasons that will lock out players who dont spend. Im fine with arena relics in general but I know a ton of players (a good quarter of my clan) who love pve, hate pvp, and have to get dragged kicking and screaming to do their siege battles. This is kinda bad
@ do you mind if I add your response to a meme? I can have you look at it before I post it. I don’t like putting people in memes before I get their approval I post in the Raid official Discord Memes channel.
No the relics seem like a L, just what we needed. More currencies and power systems. I am surprised we haven't gotten ultra mega awaken, or rank 7 yet -.-
simple fix to love arena is a power lvl cap like no one 20% higher or lower power than you earlier on like gold 2 and under instead of almost always fighting people with full teams of mythicals after winning twice.
Why every cc say best update ever? Nothing is live. Relics - Powercreep again. Clanboss - Nice but the clash thing same bs as we see in hydra. Instant battles - only made to not see how incompetend the compony to can not fix their hydra disaster. Backround fights - they want more money for they energy packs.
The people who quit this end of year, sure picked the right timing for it. i like the changes and all, but it overcomplicates things. Chimera clash? disgusting, just like Hydra clash, when being in a clan which does not win a lot.
I'm glad you immediately flagged how much added complexity they are adding with relics, on top of variable artifact sets and blessings, I feel like we'll need a PhD in math to just understand what interactions are happening. I also noticed that there is a new buff? called "Fervor" which seems to correlate with healing? 2:51 (might be a counter/opposite to berserk?)
Happy about qol especially hydra insta battles. I am ok for new rewards from a new boss as long as we can retry and dont get rekt just because we missed a skill or smth. O kinda dont like how we get relics. Live arena especially. Not everyone can farm everyday. Siege we dont win every time in my mediocre clan. And new boss might be hard to get good chest and get materials
Relics are too much. I’ve been playing on and off for 4 years and I’m still mid game. Still don’t have good pvp champs with my luck. And now I’m just going to keep getting pounded by whales
Im not a huge fan of the whole relic situation at all. But everything else seems pretty decent and interesting!!! On your mark get set everyone pull your credit cards out lol I don't feel like it's called for that plarium is trying g to push players to play arena to get this forge material" Very, very stupid plarium.
as f2p 5+ years LA is BS im in Gold 1 and a lot of time like 60-70-80 lvl acc with marius-teox-marichka-taras-galatir-armanz-krix... and all amazing champs for arena so what are my chances to win like 5% + i dont understand what fun is to play arena almost everything is rng for example i go speed team with buff removal one time ill remove all and win other not and lose or ill sit in sheep like almost all game against some teams.sometime enemy rotos will get like 4-5 turns and kill all my team alone so arena is not arena that is gambling for win
I have very mixed feelings about these changes. I feel very sorry for new players, because the complexity of champion development will increase dramatically, and I am sure that relics will be made available to new players too early. I'm also worried about the new Market. Knowing life, changes will be limited to that all stores will be in one place but the "goods" there will not change. I also don't like the artificial push of players to LA Gold and the fact that you won't be able to drop from this level. My biggest objections are to the instant battle on Hydra. I'm afraid that Hydra will end up like Clan Boss, which we currently only check off every day. However, I really like the changes in Forge, the seasonality in LA, the background multi-battles and the Super Raid in the campaign. Chimera looks absolutely fantastic!
I’m really sick of new power creeps . We don’t want relics we want fixes and better ways to get existing items ! Plus insta battles in hydra isn’t going to work when all teams are manual dependent !
Funny that they can add more storage to the servers for these relics/gems by 600 per player (200 for relics and 400 for gems) but can't add 600 slots for everyone on gear...Crazy how that works huh? Didn't they say their servers couldn't handle more storage? Where did those extra 600 slots come from for every player? Also, I find it funny that SO MANY other games have been able to implement sweep/instant battles but Raid can't. Also, same with background battles. Watcher of Realms put it in the game within 1 year of being a global game and Raid took almost 6 years lol.
It does look good but I was hoping for me of the easy stuff like the Market changes. I swear, you can fix that in about an hour. smh Other then that, I love the gems and relics and the complexity. I honestly could care less about the Live Arena stuff. Also, agree with you on the Chimera clash. Not a fan.
Auto hydra battles will kill the game mode. Same thing happened with clan boss. Why care to min max when you press one button and its done? Why even lower turn count to 1000 if they were going to do this
People hate arena because they hate losing but reality is that a balanced match making means a 50/50 win rate. I think people need less fragile egos lol. And I also think that relics will be amazing for raid, we need more complexity for long term players.
We dont need relics, power creep to the fullest... they need to disable them on pvp. Clash for the chimera?? This is stupid raid cooked themselfs further..
Relics will be great! Sure they will be horrible for the first 2 or 3 months as palarium monitizes the new update! They are Not a not for profit company. But just like blessings and mythical artifacts and all and any other upgrade! They will milk the big spenders for a few months then make things more real for lower spenders and ftp players...They are going to make massive money on these new relics in the first 2 or 3 months! Egos will get out of control in pvp content!
people would do arena if it was fun and balanced, its not so its shit, its boring and a complete slog, locking pve content behind pvp is not cool, rewards for pvp should improve pvp only and rewards from pve should improve pve only, i have not been able to finish getting ramantu because 3v3 is horrible and after a certain point you never get any teams you can actually beat, classic arena is quite literally refresh every now and then to fight 1 man teams, trying to actually fight most teams results in losses more often than wins, and live arena is an armanz, wukong and udk infested cesspool, they are broken and fighting them is more hassle than its worth because the rewards in all 4 arena modes suck ass

i love the complexity of raid, as an end game player of 3 years. very excited for new things
Relics are scary. They don't look so complicated, looks like another piece of gear that just has an ability on it, with some gems to socket into them.

U forgot book them up. Some champions need a library to be useful
@@frickxnas ah yeah true, i forgot books because i literally never see them in game, still waiting on the live arena legendary book lol
@JamesSmith-cf3md me too. Haha
Souls are already dictating which champions you use, especially in arena and Hydra. Does my head in, because they're still stupid hard to get, even after 2 years in the game.
@@JamesSmith-cf3md Yeah RSL is so fucking stingy on leggo books. I have like 50 leggos and only like 10 of them booked up because you don't get them enough.

Man the relics look complicated asf! lol
You know they are going to hit that Relic cheese luck when crafting
Clash needs to exist because otherwise the game mode becomes obsolete as soon as you hit max chest. I think it’s great for the game.
To me, as a F2P player, this just seems like another way for spenders to overpower me. I haven't even beaten Amius yet and the soul thing is still being digested (even though it was introduced 1-2 years ago). Another system on top (if it gets monetized) will just mean me getting destroyed in every part of the game where I'd want to even have a chance of competing, not to talk about the complexity of the new boss.
For reference, I'm a few stars off to getting Lydia in terms of progress and haven't gotten a single mythical champion yet.
Instead of focusing on balance.... *JUST ONCE* ... We get more power creep. Good lord who wants more armor/shit to gear....
And on your last question...please keep doing news updates. You bring a unique perspective (honest and candid) where other CC's feel a bit like Plarium Adverts at times. You also offer a heavy LA perspective to updates and enhancements..and with your FTP account this year you are also much more attuned to the PITA that a FTP effort entails.
Thats the voice I want to hear, thanks for the reaction. 🎉🎉
The reaction to relics is such an end game whale perspective, like you want to play as little of the game as possible and the only focus is "having" to stay in top 100 arena... for 99.9999% of players it's fun new content, new progression options, new comps etc.. imagine actually playing the game is a good thing.

And CB clash is meh too - also appears we can only get fragments for the new mythical champion from those chests, which would be very annoying.
Relics were added to SWGOH some time after I left. Went back in on a whim to check it out some time ago and it looked crazy.
Overall this looks like a good update. They could bungle it of course but at first glance it looks like an overall positive.
Agreed. Overall a big win. Now let's hope they actually deliver!
Dude, exactly how I feel about the clash part. It's annoying and tiring to have to endless compete like that. I started this game on my phone ffs.
for you to be this happy, they must address Polymorph!
Haha I wish! Maybe one day but these are still great changes overall for sure!
Your video, as always, great. Awesome energy from the beginning. The news seemed good.
Then came relics.
Plarium haven't noticed yet that "new players" exist, and we need them. A new player today is showered with a crapton of stuff to learn.

The cost of the relic system will reveal to the community the new face behind the mask. Will it be the same? $$$$ or f2p or somewhere between
Truth. Fingers crossed it's not super monetized.
Come on. I love your dash of optimism, but absolutely no way this isn't going to be HEAVILY monetized.
Really good to hear your input "news". I for one definitely found value in it brother 👍

Yes that's my main concern as well. New players would be massively overwhelmed. Not a good thing at all.
They could have left relics out entirely of this update and i feel it would have had hardly any negative feedback.
Agreed. Everything else is a major upgrade in areas we desperately need them in. All in all, a major improvement!
Krakens have souled out, need them to chase the next shiny
I'm about to hit my 1 year anniversary with Raid. I can't wait for the update!!!

They still need to let you view, upgrade & sell gear directly from the overflow, the forge and when winning it from battles. It's gonna MASSIVELY help with the constant gear inventory being full problem.
Relics are meh. Powercreep is out of control
That's how I feel too. Definitely the worst part of the vid to me.

Absolute trash addition

So you hate Hydra ? No problem. With instant Hydra battles , you dont have to watch it anymore
No the relics seem like a L, just what we needed. More currencies and power systems. I am surprised we haven't gotten ultra mega awaken, or rank 7 yet -.-
The dark elf looking champ might be a new faction.. Who knows?!
No, it's the dark elf unity champ
As a F2P I’m dreading this update bc I won’t be able to just buy the new sh it
brogni wix become key for everything before last 2 lvl sets
Relics will be the end of Raid , you heard it here first
I like POE, so the complexity isn't that crazy, and it's welcomed.
Pretty much same feels, not a fan of the relics as itll juet make the gap bigger buuut given that seasons is coming in that may not be so bad,
This is why I'll never be a top player I'm good money dump
I would have preferred more accessory space then relics.... Drowning over here.
I'm excited by your excitement.
simple fix to love arena is a power lvl cap like no one 20% higher or lower power than you earlier on like gold 2 and under instead of almost always fighting people with full teams of mythicals after winning twice.

They should have waited with the clash ! Just let ppl cook for a while and then add it !
Why every cc say best update ever? Nothing is live.
Relics - Powercreep again.
Clanboss - Nice but the clash thing same bs as we see in hydra.
Instant battles - only made to not see how incompetend the compony to can not fix their hydra disaster.
Backround fights - they want more money for they energy packs.
The people who quit this end of year, sure picked the right timing for it. i like the changes and all, but it overcomplicates things. Chimera clash? disgusting, just like Hydra clash, when being in a clan which does not win a lot.
Super raids for campaign?!?!?! Mino was the only correct choice - what a bunch of tools
They are adding way to many champions to this game
100% agree. Way way way too many champs in this game for sure.
I'm glad you immediately flagged how much added complexity they are adding with relics, on top of variable artifact sets and blessings, I feel like we'll need a PhD in math to just understand what interactions are happening.
I also noticed that there is a new buff? called "Fervor" which seems to correlate with healing? 2:51 (might be a counter/opposite to berserk?)
Just don’t make us use unique champs for each difficulty
Happy about qol especially hydra insta battles. I am ok for new rewards from a new boss as long as we can retry and dont get rekt just because we missed a skill or smth. O kinda dont like how we get relics. Live arena especially. Not everyone can farm everyday. Siege we dont win every time in my mediocre clan. And new boss might be hard to get good chest and get materials
all the good stuff will happe in 6 months or more i bet u a giggle🎉
I am loving all this content :)
I'm still in my first year...and not excited about something new to learn since I already am still learning. Relics....ugh
arena is the best part for me. why should anyone hate that?
Relics are too much. I’ve been playing on and off for 4 years and I’m still mid game. Still don’t have good pvp champs with my luck. And now I’m just going to keep getting pounded by whales
Im not a huge fan of the whole relic situation at all. But everything else seems pretty decent and interesting!!! On your mark get set everyone pull your credit cards out lol I don't feel like it's called for that plarium is trying g to push players to play arena to get this forge material" Very, very stupid plarium.
as f2p 5+ years LA is BS im in Gold 1 and a lot of time like 60-70-80 lvl acc with marius-teox-marichka-taras-galatir-armanz-krix... and all amazing champs for arena so what are my chances to win like 5% + i dont understand what fun is to play arena almost everything is rng for example i go speed team with buff removal one time ill remove all and win other not and lose or ill sit in sheep like almost all game against some teams.sometime enemy rotos will get like 4-5 turns and kill all my team alone so arena is not arena that is gambling for win
I have very mixed feelings about these changes. I feel very sorry for new players, because the complexity of champion development will increase dramatically, and I am sure that relics will be made available to new players too early. I'm also worried about the new Market. Knowing life, changes will be limited to that all stores will be in one place but the "goods" there will not change. I also don't like the artificial push of players to LA Gold and the fact that you won't be able to drop from this level. My biggest objections are to the instant battle on Hydra. I'm afraid that Hydra will end up like Clan Boss, which we currently only check off every day.
However, I really like the changes in Forge, the seasonality in LA, the background multi-battles and the Super Raid in the campaign. Chimera looks absolutely fantastic!
I’m really sick of new power creeps . We don’t want relics we want fixes and better ways to get existing items !
Plus insta battles in hydra isn’t going to work when all teams are manual dependent !
Make Hydra great again.! 🤣
Raid getting suddenly (if moderately) better wasn not in my 2024 bingo card
Still not on mine
Funny that they can add more storage to the servers for these relics/gems by 600 per player (200 for relics and 400 for gems) but can't add 600 slots for everyone on gear...Crazy how that works huh? Didn't they say their servers couldn't handle more storage? Where did those extra 600 slots come from for every player?
Also, I find it funny that SO MANY other games have been able to implement sweep/instant battles but Raid can't. Also, same with background battles. Watcher of Realms put it in the game within 1 year of being a global game and Raid took almost 6 years lol.
aaaaaand again nothing for minotaur. this thing should be reworked mani years ago.
It does look good but I was hoping for me of the easy stuff like the Market changes. I swear, you can fix that in about an hour. smh
Other then that, I love the gems and relics and the complexity. I honestly could care less about the Live Arena stuff. Also, agree with you on the Chimera clash. Not a fan.
Auto hydra battles will kill the game mode. Same thing happened with clan boss. Why care to min max when you press one button and its done? Why even lower turn count to 1000 if they were going to do this
People hate arena because they hate losing but reality is that a balanced match making means a 50/50 win rate. I think people need less fragile egos lol. And I also think that relics will be amazing for raid, we need more complexity for long term players.
This update might just kill the game for me. I dont have the time to manual a new boss.
We dont need relics, power creep to the fullest... they need to disable them on pvp. Clash for the chimera?? This is stupid raid cooked themselfs further..
I bought He-Man hes so cool
Might be time to quit ...
Can I have your account?
Relics will be great! Sure they will be horrible for the first 2 or 3 months as palarium monitizes the new update! They are Not a not for profit company. But just like blessings and mythical artifacts and all and any other upgrade! They will milk the big spenders for a few months then make things more real for lower spenders and ftp players...They are going to make massive money on these new relics in the first 2 or 3 months! Egos will get out of control in pvp content!
you use youtube in light mode? how???
I still won't play live arena. Win, lose, doesn't matter. Can't stand it. It's too slow. I'd rather play 3v3, which I also hate.
To me, this update seems so tone deaf, given what is going on in the game right now.
Hydra is so broken atm - but don't worry, have another clash...
We need a gifting option so daddy drock aka money bags can donate me some shards
Not excited for relics
Arena is part of the game.. people gotta stop whining sorry.. PVP is a huge part of Raid.
Go play WOR if u just wanna farm dungeons
people would do arena if it was fun and balanced, its not so its shit, its boring and a complete slog, locking pve content behind pvp is not cool, rewards for pvp should improve pvp only and rewards from pve should improve pve only, i have not been able to finish getting ramantu because 3v3 is horrible and after a certain point you never get any teams you can actually beat, classic arena is quite literally refresh every now and then to fight 1 man teams, trying to actually fight most teams results in losses more often than wins, and live arena is an armanz, wukong and udk infested cesspool, they are broken and fighting them is more hassle than its worth because the rewards in all 4 arena modes suck ass
Relics and gems are Diablo.
Would be nice if they actually took the time to make something new instead of taking it from a different game.
