Trivia
When Morty released on August 23rd, 2022, Steven and LeBron were briefly replaced by Bugs and Velma in the 3rd Icon Preview Rotation before being fixed.
Both Bugs and Velma were part of the next character rotation on August 30th, 2022.
Gizmo was originally set to be a part of the 13th rotation's set of characters before being quickly replaced by Reindog due to a bug involving players who haven't unlocked Gizmo prior to the rotation being unable to select him then.
Garnet was briefly added as a bonus free character for a week following Iron Giant's brief removal on June 4th, 2024.[1]
