Hello everyone and sorry for this kinda long and crazy idea. This is NOT A SPOILER this is not official is just my crazy dream that maybe just maybe some devs will see and think: "hey this guy has a point"

With no more introductions let`s begin:

For centuries they waited. Deep in the shadows of the dark corners of the univers. Waiting. Watching. Learning. But the wait is over. The (Insert bad guys name here) decided is time. Time to attack. The war has started and this time we don`t fight to win. We fight to survive. This is no longer a battle but and full scale invasion. The (bad guys) opened warp gates all over the world sending entire armies of troups readi to conquer everything they see.

"This is a message for everyone. Please help us. I know what I am asking is a suicide mission but we MUST stall the ivaders until reinforcements arrive. I am begging you, help us. Anyone just go..... (white noise)" Transmision ended.

This is the general story for a new game-mode. Now let me explain the mechanics.

You will have a main Team of 4 and 11 reinforcements put in order of how much time they need to arrive. (soo 15 in total but this number can be adjusted) The first team of 4 who arrived at the warp gate will start to stall the enemies until reinforcements come. The enemies will come in waves Infinite numbers of waves your goal is to fight as many as possible and to survive as much as possible. Now this game is made to shake the Meta. Sooo.... a few mechanics that will prevent someone to run archeon with aventurine and survive for ever.

Mechanic 1. Among the enemy there will be one device that will charge your reinforcements. Once fully charged you will get one stack up to a maximum of 11 stacks. When one members die you can use one stack to replace him with one character from your reinforcements pool. BUT you can select only from the first X memebers (X=Number of stacks) So for exemple if your sustain character dies and you want to replace him with another sustain but you have 3 reinforcement stacks and your first 3 reinforcements are DPS and Supports you will need to wait till you make 4 stacks or select one of the first 3 characters This way the team management become a strategy that you need to take into account.

Mechanic 2. The reiforcements device as mentioned before is part of the enemy team soo you must be carefull not to hit it if you want to charge your reinforcements stacks. Meaning no full AoE teams. This is not Pure Fiction. If you destroy the device by mistake you will need to wait 2 waves until a new one will appear. Soo in this game you will need to make sure you controll your DPS.

Mechanic 3. As mentioned in the story the (Bad guys) watched us and learned the meta. There will be enemys who deal Pierceing damage. (This can be a self buff, a team buff or an attack type) When a character deals Pierce dmg. It will deal 2x dmg against shielded units and the shield will be half as strong against this atack. So for exemple a character with 2.000Hp and 3.000 Shield is attacked by an enemy with 1.500 pierce dmg (2.000hp 3.000shield/2(1500)-1.500x2(=3.000dmg) = 3.500-3.000= 500hp Left)

Mechanic 4. Other enemies will deal soul dmg. The soul dmg will brake a character soul wich is way harder to heal than the body. In order to heal a sould you will need to use a dispell debuff 2 times and heal the character 2 times(with no effect) before they will be able to receive heals again (heal number 3)

As you can see you need to have reinforcemenets ready to change between shields and heals depending what type of enemys came from the warp. Also this game mode is designed for you to lose your characters in order to use your reinforcements and to finish the game mode faster cause if your team will be unkillable then the game mode will take 2 hours to finish.

This game mode will give players a reaso to level up and pull for more characters wich means more playtime and more pulls required wich means more jade wich means more money soo i think devs will like the ideea. Also this game is designed to shake the meta soo your Selle will be relevant again.

What do you think about my ideea? And HOYO if you see this post and like it consider giving me some Free Jade as a reward or a job :D
