Midsummer Meltdown....really???

Sorry King, but apart from the fact we really don't want another one of these end of episode unbeatable level events, I do find this distasteful.

Midsummer Meltdown. Is this a political statement? Are you totally unawares that there is a climate change issue? I mean a BIG issue? Get a grip. I am sorry, but this theme gives me the creeps.

"The sun is melting everthing 60 levels away" I'm afraid this is far too close to home to be classed as fun. We've just had a hosepipe ban instated where I live. I can do without this insult to injury. Please change the theme for this event. Some of us think that the sun melting the glaciers around the world is not something to be made fun of.

That's a fair point.

I remember a year ago people complained about King's lack of taste when they introduced the fire fighter surrounded by blazing fire as legendary level icon in the midst of a wildfire season. Ultimately these names and themes are worked out long before the event and whoever thinks of them does not spend much thought about these names or themes at all.

I don't like the title "meltdown" as it does sound apocalyptic to me. But that's my personal view.
