Didn't CG say that GG is performing exactly as they hoped he would at G13 though? I thought I read that shortly after G13 launched. If so then really only the first two lines are relevant since we have no idea if the last one is true or not until the iconic gear is in the game.

Not big on jokes, eh?

Jokes are usually funny... this was just a ball of make-believe.

Yes, absolutely.

There hasn't been a match I kept my SE for offense (and mine is merely a 6* g11 one). I have built 2 counters for it, but only had to use the backup 1 time only. Even if you fail on a SE team, as soon as you dwindle the team down to Malak, he becomes an easy beat.

And as soon as Malak gets the 2nd run, focus will shift elsewhere. CG is just delaying that process for the obvious reason of -perceived value- on their future releases but not Malak himself.

Sounds more like they've taken their Malak and gone home.

By the time those items are in the game, the game will be past Malak. People obsess too much about it since it was a very restricted release.

With respect, yes.

Easy to say when you have Malak.

I've beaten Malak in GA several times. This doesn't change that he's still the best character in the game and that people are perfectly reasonable about wanting him back. Especially when he's required for most TB platoons.
