    So guys, as this is a thing: : https://its.infinitythegame.com/challenge/b4ckd00r-crisis

    Who can we really expect to lose?

    I would imagine Joan and Defersen are off the table because they just got resculpts.

    I would also expect that Koni and Bipandra are unlikely to be written off because Uprising just gave them new missions, though they potentially could go.

    So that makes me look at Kirpal Singh or LT Rao as likely goners.

    Or maybe this is a way of stripping mercs out of the vanilla factions to make the new NA2 sectorials more desirable, so maybe Knauf, Miranda, or Le Muet might go?

    I mean, we might win, but most factions won't so...

    Joan yes, she is a recreation, widely used and without real need for an upgrade (which was mentioned would happen to the banned character).
    De Fersen, considering how one of the first names in the web of contacts was Gabriele, however...

    Rao and singh... maybe Singh, losing some stuff like CoC and gaining something more useful.

    I hope Singh, because he needs some improvements. But I bet De Fersen, because of the new sculpt.
    It has been said that the character will return, better, after his retirement. I think it matches well with him.

    Is there even an english forum side b4ckd00r discussion going on? I couldn't find it.

    EDIT:

    On who should go away and come back good, I think Bipandra definitely should. She's usuable in 3/4 PanO options so will have the most faction impact.

    ITS subforums on both Juego and Game forums. Title is "Retos ITS" & "ITS Challenge", both started by Hellois.

    So factions should actually play to lose the challange and hope whoever is temporarly banned will become better once returned ?

    Some fischy logic here.

    Obviously.

    I'm very curious in the "normalization" method used for result calculations. Does it mean that actually "not very skilled players" should avoid playing ITS if they root for "their faction" ?

    As someone who talks to forum Koni regularly, using his name for Konstantinos has always been confusing. Should be like... Konnie.

    Rao's useful as a 6th Bagh Mari, but I don't think he'd be missed too much. Ditto Kirpal Singh.

    I vote for Stan.

    ...

    Seriously 'though, unless the profile is actually removed from Army does anyone think ANY Tournament Organiser on the planet is going to take the "Banned Profiles" thing seriously?

    With the exception of narrative events where people might already do things like that (remove characters for narrative reasons) anyway?

    But, yeah, I actually expect De Fersen to get hit... he IS the dodgy ex-Templar after all...

    One one hand, we've just had a wave of Dire Foes update, which Konstantinos wasn't a part of.

    On the other hand, Haqq has this Yasbir guy who is one of the most controversial units in the faction, and who did not get an update. He shares a box with Konstantinos. Make of that what you will.
