About Season 3 Battle Pass Changes

- Season Missions offer extra Chrome Tokens for long-term players.
- Mission rewards are better distributed, with "dead" missions removed.
Hero Customization Expands
Introducing accessories and Ultimate VFX:
- Earn Accessory Points in matches to customize heroes like Groot, Loki, Winter Soldier, and more (8 in total).
- New Chroma Variants and Ultimate VFX options offer battlefield clarity and personal flair (visible only to you).
- Collect Unstable Molecules from events and the Battle Pass to unlock these cosmetic upgrades.
Season 3 Balance & Meta Shifts
As Season 2.5 ends, new strategies emerge: Ultron has changed the aerial meta with drones, healing, and high burst. Magneto + Venom and Captain America comps still dominate in capable hands.
- Buffs: The Thing, Renon, Mantis, Invisible Woman.
- Nerfs: Emma Frost, Iron Man, Mr. Fantastic, The Punisher, Alron.
Balance tweaks aim to diversify viable team comps and make matches more strategic and fun.
