I'm not sure if editing the ring count affects it, just reset it back to the default and you should be good to go. @ I2xINCHxTONGUE

@Postmortimus Have they removed totems? If not, where do I find them please? I am only seeing the option to buy character skins with coins or iron.

If you want the characters from these operations now, you have to purchase one of their skins with gold coins or scrap. If you purchase a skin for a character you do not own, it unlocks them.

This is correct as of August 2020.

Oddly it just unlocked all pre season 5 characters for me. I didn't have to buy anything.

I can confirm that operation 1 character's will not unlock this at the present moment.

Highlight the totem in the totem selection screen and press Y. That shows the list of challenges that you need to complete to unlock the character. Including all those descriptions in here would make this guide needlessly long, in my opinion.

1) Create a closed confrontation game.
2) Select the "Arcade Blitz" mode.
3) Select a character from Operation 2 or Operation 3 (I honestly don’t know which characters these are, but I got this achievement when I was playing as Kantus with yellow stripes on the skin, I can’t describe it in more detail because I don’t remember)) .
4) We win the match.
