Actually, it looks more like he's presenting it as a gift:
"Just look at this delicious cake. I spent all day, slaving over a hot pit of souls to bake this for you. The dough was lovingly crafted from wheat, harvested from the blood-soaked killing fields of Qliphoth, mixed with gore-caked eggs, each laid fresh by our fattest nightmare colossi. The frosting is hand-made from butter, freshly-churned from the broken bodies of lesser heroes who came before you, mixed with milk fresh from the pustulent teats of Qliphoth's finest organic, free-range, human-fed cows."
"I hope the taste is to your liking."
(Hopefully) Useful CO Resources: HeroCreator (character planner), Cosmic Timers/Alert Checklist, Blood Moon Map, Anniversary Cat Map, and more (eventually, anyway).
Sapphire is just like "Wow look at that cake!". Witchcraft and Kinetic appear to be super hype about getting some cake. No wonder our world is chock full of super villains... champions are instantly distracted from their presence by cake.
Its pretty much like a re-skin of Mind Wipe or Entrancing: 100ft threat wipe on the main target + stealth. Seemed to work as advertised in the battle station. Although..
It should prob be added to Blinding Light's tooltip that it places other threat wipes on cd. The ability is also tagged as a "Placate" instead of the usual "Threat Wipe - Stealth" label.
DJ Madbot has cooked up a remix of Sapphire's song! This song will play randomly during the hourly performance. Note: Once the Anniversary rolls around we will provide a link on the website to download it!
Added the following to Anniversary store: Party Hair, Half Feather Mask, Party Headband, Headphones costumes.
Defender, Witchcraft, Ironclad, Kinetic, Sapphire action figures (formerly in the ZEN store).
Added the following to the event pts store: Party Horn, Glitter Belt costumes.
Updated some tooltips on items found in the Anniversary gifts.
Lockbox
Added the following items to the pts lockbox store: Rave Wild Hair, Rave Hair, Rave Wire Hair, Rave Spikes, Rave Stockings, Rave Sweater. (This is not the entire set).
Please consider making a longer version of the stockings, to match up with the thigh-high options we already have...as well as a "striped thigh high" option for skin, as an alternate pattern for the ones we already have as well, so we don't have to use them as only a foot option. This removes any ability to use them with other shoes.
I can't wait to get those items from the lockbox. Does the sweater need to have those holes or tears on the sleeves? I could live with it but just saying.

This right here. I agree to this.
"When in doubt, spam Ebon Ruin! It works! 90% of the time!
Woo! Fabulous, new hair... Oh, and some other stuff.

Does this mean when I look through my AFs, I won't have to see these f-ing thing telling me to go into the cash shop and buy them any more? I hate that.
1: you can't speak to sapphire back stage [combine that with chanign "talk it ironclad" to "shoot ironclad out of a cannon" makes the "we are the champions"perk missable
2: you can't blow out the candles on the cake fast enough to get all of em out.
3: new song, can confirm that it does not make my ears bleed.. so it's an improvement there.. although you might want to look into making sapphire's voice a little louder.. you can only just hear her above the actual music.. and general background noise... like cars honking and the sparklers on the cake fizzling.
In all things, a calm heart must prevail.

Yeah some things are broken... no I don't use/abuse them.. where would be the fun in that?
The next couple of pieces are purchasable via Anniversary Currency at the store and presumably will have a chance of dropping during the annual Anniversary attack by Dr. Destroyer / Mechanon.
1) Mechanon Spider Sleek Back
2) Defender's Helmet
3) Defender's Gloves
4) Sapphire's Boots Bug: Preview Image for this particular item displays Defender's Helmet instead of the correct costume piece.
Thoughts on "Champions Anniversary 2k17" by Sapphire feat. DJ Madbot
Before you ask, yes I made that song name up.
I like it, but I think as notyuu says, her voice needs to be much louder. Its been toned down significantly, which kind of ruins it a little?
Could we have her turned up a little more so she's more audible?
Also:
Not sure if this is just me, or a legitimate thing, but when DJ Madbot's decks are spinning and the colours transition from blue to green, the entire set up vanishes for a few moments (the styled neon blocks) and then reappears as the next colour, so green. Anyone else seeing this?
EDIT: I HAVE PROOF!!!!!! #ScreenshottingSkills
Bug: DJMadbot's booth flickers out of existence when transitioning from blue to green.
If anyone is able to see this as well, then that would be very helpful (as it might be a hardware thing on my end)
Suggestion: Could the size of Defender's Grav Bike on display next to the Anniversary Party Host be reduced so that we can actually click on characters or the host whilst it is still there?
Suggestion: Could we have a title-item exchange created for items from the upcoming lockbox and/or purchasable items from the Anniversary vendor to the Toy Master?
Example: Exchange Party Hair for "Party Animal" title etc.
The Collector's Store on PTS seems unresponsive / broken. Is this intended as it is being updated or not?

i dig everything on the set so far though i second this. additionally, as a suggestion for potential additions, maybe a pattern for tights that's horozontal stripes? to emulate striped stockings that go up to the waist? maybe even those fuzzy 2007-esque oversized legwarmers (second foot accessory? or a shoe option?) and the half gas mask trend. of course i do realize that the set isn't finished just yet so there's going to be more added, but i bring them up to be considered just in case!
To add a bit of note about the new stuff: A lot of those pieces work with the exotic texture types like Ice, Shadow, Ghost, Glass, Brushed Metal, etc. Glass looks really cool on skin-tight pieces.

This is a big journey, so far if you're reading this, wish you a good day
Defender looks like he could use a laxative.

These next costume pieces come from the Anniversary Event and likely drop from Anniversary gifts.
1) Anniversary Glitter Belt
2) Party Blower (suggest putting "Anniversary" in front of the name to keep with consistency when searching for items in the tailor)

1) Party Hair
2) Half Feather Mask
3) Party Headband
4) Anniversary Elegant Mask
5) Headphones
6) Ultra Mega Bow Tie
The rest of the costume pieces I could see were from previous events I believe...

Kaiserin please consider adding the Mechanon Hips and Chest to the Anniversary Store!
Any chance to add that?
I would like to see Sapphire's Belly Sapphires as either an unlock or something which can be utilized as a belt accessory or something...
