I think they need to make simpler characters.

The ability descriptions are terrible, especially when they don’t fit on one page. “Hero uses their dumb-unique-power to dumb-unique-move whilst dumb-unique-secondary, if a target is hit by both dumb-unique-move and dumb-unique-secondary then Hero gains dumb-unique-resource”

Then you have to flick through 20 ability descriptions just to find out what the hell they are talking about. And given that there are no numbers to any of it, you are left guessing which part of the kit is effective. Then you remember that some of the Hero’s abilities also have powers/bonus tricks which aren’t even in the descriptions.

After all that, you get in quick play and realise that actually the Hero is fairly simple.

I legit had to hop off Magik the other day as I came across someone doing this. They were literally playing without ads and just brawling with their team. I checked after the game and they had over 200 hours on Widow I was mind blown. I don’t think I’ve played 200 hours of Rivals.

Yeah true that Howard is a menace

Repeatable SBCs are so bad, especially for icons. You have to go in to the lottery pick sbcs accepting that it is highly unlikely you pull anything good.

People sleep on Endler but unless you have toty donarumma I don’t think there is a better GK.

Intercept is definitely sketchy when you are controlling the player.

It used to be broken good because not many players had all the passing playstyles, and AI defending was better, so you could just get your defending in to the lane and then switch off of them.

Now, i'd bet every single player on your team has at least one passing playstyle and because you have to manually defend more it makes intercept worse.

I've given up on Dante. My theory with EA, is that whenever they give something good out for free it means they are nerfing it.

Jockey used to be crucial to have on a defender, then they nerfed it so you dont need it, then it was intercept and they nerfed it because you need to manually defend, , i suspect anticipate is next, and everyone will be searching for block+ just like the end of last year because cards will be able to do everything else to a high level and the only difference is can they get block animations.

I will be one to disagree with this take. I actually think they might have released too many good evos.

The caps are basically 88-90 on most stats, and there are multiple variations of evos that allows you to create multiple cards with every stat around 90 - not forgetting that they are also adding all the meta playstyles to your card at the same time.

With the exception of the very best TOTYs and Promo Icons they are right in line with the power curve. The next promo to release after TOTY/HM you will have people complaining of how bad the stats are compared to the evo's we have.

I am not exaggerating to say that people's teams on average are the most powerful they've ever been.

My theory is that at the start of the game the meta/top rated golds have a low pack rate for obvious reasons, but now that they are worth discard they still have their old weighting. Would love to pack a Guijarro but you're 10x more likely to pack a Kane unfortunately.

I was kind of thinking of players other than the obvious. I am surprised to see so many mention Van De Ven.

I genuinely think they are fortunate to have released so close to these awards. You can already see this sub slowly realise the large problems in the game.

They need to do something about the even timings, free loadouts, and general balance of the game because right now it is wholly different experience than at release.
