    I think the only reason the FOMO still exists is because Square is afraid CC queues will dry up without the battlepass incentive. FWIW I think CC would be fine without the battlepass, but I suspect that's the reason

    People would still need to get the trophy crystals to buy the old rewards.

    Which is crazy because anyone with two braincells to rub together would still see the need for the trophy crystals that only come from the battlepass.

    In a lot of ways, I genuinely question the intelligence of the development team when it comes to issues such as this. It's so easy to have the rewards lag behind in a way to not make the battlepass seem useless. Also, having the intelligence to add new rewards when necessary to necessitate more engagement.

    But to be fair, they do nothing, and we still reward them financially, so who's really the idiot? I just wish they had better foresight and wisdom to fix these issues as they crop up.

    This is it, really. Same reason they're terrified of increasing the tome cap in odd patches or unlocking Savage earlier. Once they do, it's not something they can backpedal on without massive backlash.

    The difference is they explicitly said the PvP series rewards would be obtainable later on, while they have never promised a tome cap increase/earlier savage unlock.
