So how good was Metamorph league?

League is fun. I dig it.

Pretty much the most boring league of "new generation". If not for the atlas changes I would not even consider playing it.

League mechanic was nice after a few patch fixes, as per usual.

New atlas system took a while to get used to, but after a bit of time, its hella fun compared to before. I think it actually extends the endgame nicely and makes Shaper/Elder even more hardcore, which is dope, IMO.

It is. Still it is fun and i enjoy it.

Metamorph is great. Probably my favorite league from the last year. It's rippy, but only if you don't read the mods, so it's almost always 100% your fault if you die. Rewards are solid, and it's not too intrusive. Really similar to Legion in that regard. Would love to see whatever GGG had in mind, but didn't appear to finish, with the possibility for "third-tier" metamorphs that might have concluded Tane's story more.

Conquerors of the Atlas though...not a big fan of the Expansion. Mixed feelings.

I'm happy to have the overall difficulty increase, but unfortunately it might have made it so fewer builds are nice to play without large budgets. Non-Cyclone melee, non-DOT ranged, and non-DOT self-cast spells seem like they might be in a pretty tough spot.

I like the Crusader/Hunter/Redeemer/Warlord fights, but don't like the Awakener fight. T14-16 map sustain is so easy and good, atlas progression is very reasonable to do without trading. But I miss single-map atlas strategy.

I'm glad to be done with moving Shaper/Elder blobs, but spawning influence now after 20 watchstones is also too much RNG even once you figure it all out.

Zana has never felt better to run as a Master, Elder/Shaper/Synthesis missions are amazing. Alva needs a rework.

They messed up giving us this major patch and leaving for the holidays. Game was downright broken for the first month. I gave up farming metas because of the terrible organ drop issues. The new atlas is great.. kind of. I skipped all yellow maps though and just bought reds to start off. That probably helped my enjoyment a lot more than trying to grind through each awakened area.

Was an easy skip.

Metamorph is not the revamped Atlas nor the Conquerors.

Metamorph is:
1. Collect Organs, fight Metamorphs at the end of a map
2. Collect Organs, fight Metamorphs in Tane's lab

It is basically GGG's response to those who feel map bosses are not worth killing.
The bad:
1. There are no special bosses to spawn.
2. It is pointless to fill the gauge in Tane's lab, why even have a meter in the first place?
3. Black on Black
4. Metamorphs being able to use their skills immediately when they teleport to you.
5. Picking up organs manually was fking awful for the few weeks or so, thankfully it was fixed.

The Good:
Everyone likes loot pinatas, right?

Personally i don't find Metamorph to be that exciting of a league concept.
If it was the old Atlas with Metamorph, i don't think it'll do very well.

My 2 chaos.

I like the Boss HP increase, the new atlas and the rewarding MM encounters. Very good league imho.

To be very honest, I would avoid this league. This is probably the worst league I've played since I started playing leagues in PoE... that would be years.
