S7E15 - Trigger Design, Who Needed an Update, and Hating Webs with AMG Wills

We ask the following questions to AMG's Will Shick and Will Pagani:

1. What Marvel storyline / crossover would you want to write or see if you could?

2. Angela was given an automatic pursuit trigger, whereas 2099 retained his. Speaking to triggers specifically, how do you come to conclusions design wise on how much variance is too much variance?

3. Omega Red was given a Medium Move, whereas Venom is still a slug. What factors influenced the "glow up" of some characters, and the omission of others?

4. With annual crisis rotations, what are some design hurdles to both updating characters, and creating new ones when you aren't always sure if the issue is with a character or a crisis combination. Example, Nova was unplayed for almost a year after his release, but the new crisis changes paired with a more favorable meta has made him much more viable.

5. To balance the game you increased the stamina of many of the game's characters. What issues were you trying to address with this sweeping change? Was there anything else being considered?

6. One huge winner of the update has been Emma Frost, she has notably jumped in power level with the extra Stamina. Angela is proving to be a terror on the board backed by Doomed Prophecy. Is there a character post-update who's "tier jump" surprised you? Is there anyone you think who is being slept on in this early expiration?

7. If you were going to a tournament tomorrow what affiliation would you play?
