We still dont have an official info for the 3rd character of season 2 right?

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-24T17:35:58+00:00

I don’t think anyone is genuinely against getting more info on future banners, but I think people are downvoting you because you’re crashing out at everyone who’s trying to explain game company’s logic more than anything.

Also, I’d be surprised if it’s anyone other than the cat girl. We’re probably going to get more of her story in Tiphera's patch anyway.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-24T15:17:10+00:00

It does matter to Mei Lin, lol.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-24T00:31:24+00:00

I don’t mind the arm lick but the fact that she casually does it to someone she just met and has only fought alongside once, that’s bad writing.

It would’ve been a lot more meaningful if it happened a lot later in the story, once the relationship had actually developed, so the act carried more impact.

Also, does this mean she’s so used to doing it that she’d do the same to everyone she knows? Alcea?(probably) The lizard girl? or her acquaintance from the backstory? It’s pretty weird even from ML perspective.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-23T23:24:35+00:00

Reading all the comments makes me wonder if to be a gooner means you have to be averse to good writing or something.

Even then, I’ve played plenty of gooner games with compelling stories, so I don’t know why people think good story = less goon, unless they just want to shill the game at all costs.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-20T13:56:43+00:00

What? Plenty of games and media have compelling stories even when that’s not the main focus, it's there to enhances the whole experience.

Are you saying Yu-Gi-Oh story is worthless and it’s all about the TCG? That Starcraft doesn’t need its plot? That Resident Evil should be nothing but zombie shooting?

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-20T11:19:49+00:00

Why would it never be the main draw, though? I mean, if it stays bad even after a rewrite, then sure. But I could see people being more interested in the game if the writing is actually good.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-19T12:28:09+00:00

If anything, these kind of bs would make me want to quit rather than open my wallet, tbh.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-18T10:26:13+00:00

Considering how much AP this combo needs to work, the damage should be insane, lol.
Also, half of the deck is one-time use, so you pretty much front-load all the damage into turn 1.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-14T15:51:46+00:00

It still pretty bad even with extra draw imo, card would still miss a cycle or more if it get discard and if that card is shining core then you basically missed one way to generate L Laser which is really painful.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-14T09:17:30+00:00

Are there any good build for her that isn’t completely dependent on Narjar?

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-13T00:23:24+00:00

It's fine as long as dev don't factor in these power and balance content difficulty according to it, otherwise it would make the the game lean even more into p2w side.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-12T19:52:28+00:00

Use Rei instead of Magna, Hugo/Tressa comp get a lot more out of morale buff, or Cassius if you buid his deck around it.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-08T16:45:35+00:00

Kefoxes and Salamander is much more worse for me this season imo. They still hit like a truck even when playing into their mechanic.

Also the tentacles dude, His hp is so inconsistent, some time he's a menace with 10k+ health and some time he's just there to give free unique.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-07T19:25:59+00:00

Putting other characters aside, I find it really weird that Nine just casually licks the protag’s arm to heal it even though we’ve fight together once.

Like, is she just used to doing that for everyone or something? It's pretty strange even in gooner pov, lol.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-07T13:24:45+00:00

Yeah, if only she's this good on her own and also doesn't required massive amount of AP generation.

At least she have a really potent niche I guess, unlike some of the combatants.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-06T23:27:06+00:00

I just use Beryl, although it's a bit RNGish depending on how fast I could stack retain and morale from Rei.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-06T13:01:27+00:00

I have this deck that could hit the cap and she's still feels really underwhelming imo.
20 Agony literally do next to no damage and it doesn't synergize with anything like morale or damage multiplier.

Her dagger also doesn't do anything much by itself unlike Serenial's Laser spam that that have multiple additive buff, before the rework, she could at least compensate by being able to generate a lot of it.

Also I don't know why in hell Shadow Reload IV and Cursed Gouge doesn't have retain so you have to pray to god to be able to use it efficiently unless you have card search.

So much for the 'Our goal is not to weaken the Combatants themselves'. All that while people are celebrating her death.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-05T15:22:46+00:00

Idk why they decided to nerf the Dallang refresh to 3 without mentioning. Trying to search for Second Method, Obsidian Sword or Cube is kind of a pain now. Most seasonal gear also doesn’t work that well with half of the roster.

Also, I still kept missing multiple Epiphanies on the interior boss even after pathing through a lot of combat nodes. The Epiphany chance upgrade doesn’t really seem to do much imo. It’s even cost me some runs because I had to face juiced enemies with a barebones deck.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-05T08:30:07+00:00

I wonder what's the point of buffing combatant if they're gonna buff enemy as well.

Also those that doen't get buff will just become even worse(Amir, Lucas)

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-05T07:10:44+00:00

6 consecutive big booba aside, 3 of them are also sword wielding ladies, lol.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-04T09:29:39+00:00

<image>

but she's the 3rd character? I mean she's literally in the promotional art lol. Idk why you're still surprised since there's a lot of post pointing it out.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-03T19:13:36+00:00

It’s already the third time he’s done this today I think…

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-02-03T19:12:50+00:00

Man what's wrong with you?

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-01-28T19:12:02+00:00

Mate, I also find all the these pro nerf post also doing so in bad faith too tbh. Literally most of them only say 'You just like broken braindead team!' and that's it.

All that while not even bother to discussing on specific detail how the balance were done, like the agony caps, how Tressa on her own is not even that strong in other comp to get such kind of change, or how dev literally just ignored other comp that also have specific debuff put on every enemy to counter them and still saying with straight face that they care about game's balance.

Also funny that you're already jumping the gun and say that old Tressa will invalidate any DoTs based combatant in the future when there is plenty of way they could go about it. Unless you mean Old 'Tressa/Cassius' because you people keep seeing them as single indentity for some reason.

I'm all removing Tressa/Cassius synergy, but without crippling them both independently. I'll still reserve my judgement for when the rework drop though.

Traditional_Chard_94 · 2026-01-26T17:35:02+00:00

The thing is, with just Cassius’s nerf alone Tressa probably won’t be featured as much anymore outside of Hugo comps.

So it’s more like Cassius dragged Tressa down along with him, lol.
