    Never as everything runs through hero showdown

    Yeah wishful thinking... Devin and forest are prob a hard never.  But I was shocked that Braden is still not in the BT exchange.  He has been around for a long time and was on par with the other heroes like Nick, Leo. Matt and Luke etc.  The buff that Braden and forest got are massive.  Also if you did not notice Luke, Laura and Andrew got huge buffs also...

    Hero content is strictly only available in Showdown what is currently available in the store will stay, the rest stays exclusive to Showdown

    Luke, laura, andrew came out before showdown was a thing. So they got in bt exchange. Braden however (and all heroes afterwards) came out either when or after showdown started so they remain exclusive to showdown

    If thats the way then showdown needs to be bit longer in duration or bit more frequent. I missed 1 day & could not able to get what I wanted.
    I save my Blood thors to upgrade heroes (I have 230+) but no use of those since the things available for BT exchange either I have in numbers or have no interest in.

    This is a "you" problem, not a company problem

    So you're kind of contradicting yourself here lol We can get tokens in BT for Nick , Matt , Leo etc.. but not for Braden and he came out way before Nick and Matt . Aslo Andrew is newer than Braden . The thing that bothers me most is why didn't Nick , Matt and Kayla get buff's when they buffed every other unit  way past any of them :(

    You're actually incorrect.
    Andrew came out back in op red revelations (22/2/2019)
    Nick and leonard came out in op final reckoning (14/6/2019)
    And braden came out later in op chaos century (6/2/2020)
    (So braden is actually newer)

    First showdown to offer new heroes instead of adding them to bt store was showdown 2 (20/2/2020)

    So as mentioned, any hero released after showdown remains exclusive to it (only exception so far being laura and matt's tokens)

    Forest and Braden tokens were in the BT exchange prior to this showdown. People were asking on various FB pages why they'd disappeared the day before showdown because they had never bothered levelling them up as they were old units

    Yah @Perry299, that's surely my problem, no where I mentioned about kix.
    Been paying long enough to know what to expect from this game/Kix & I am fairly ok about it. I just had a question & based on feedback from all of you I just suggested my view, wheather that's get implemented or not is not going to impact my play style, I know how to adapt rather than crying on forum.

    their tokens were never there, literally none of the releases said that their tokens were in the Gearstore

    Let's be clear, it's not a law of physics that there can be no new hero token bases introduced or hero tokens added to the gear store.  It's the current policy but it could be adjusted anytime.  I for one think Devin should get a token base since he doesn't get his first two devouts until level 5, making him essentially worthless before then.   For low level accounts like my mini it's a tough ask to get 11.5 million hero xp at 120k per showdown base.  Talk about a grind.

    Token bases were a bad idea ...
    Why?
    Because players could stockpile tokens therefore reducing their playing time in event.
    == that's a no no to kixeye

    Secondly.
    If they made them actually difficult bases then most people would just cry and throw a tantrum... judging a power level for stuff seems to be hard for the design team.

    Third .
    As with the legendary units you can only earn so many tokens in a 24 hour period, using that i am sure it would be within reach to apply that to New hero bases Yet they havent brought them back...

    screenshots from players in FB groups have made them up then? You're wrong but then again you always act superior to anyone who dares have different opinions or inconvenient facts

    When i see Braden going to lvl 10 i looked in gearstore to buy some as i have plenty of BT , but he was not there in my gearstore and that was more then a day before as wanted a headstart .
      This is the reason i looked to spend BT to upgrade him https://www.kixeye.com/forum/discussion/791695  and i assure you he was not there .

    I also looked in exchange when the briefing was posted and he wasn't there..

    Considering the downtime was a week prior i do not believe even if it was there they could remove it without another downtime..

    well, they do be changing stuff without warning... "Sundae Driver" for the screamer is no longer available to buy with medals. And i know this because i bought it before they moved it over to the BT tab.

    yes, these screenshots are made up (if they are of the gearstore) and if you have actual proof and not some words, then please prove me wrong
