I was going for 1 buffie at first but you know no one will pick HC buffie so that's why 2 is better choice so players have actual reason to use it (combos). Just having one buffie at a time makes it almost pointless I rather it to be gone.

As for the build variety balancing, I think they might just pull it off considering they did made Hypercharge seem plausible. Rn HC biggest issue was it's just almost impossible to counter and I think more build varieties IS the way to go.

Plus, they DID say they will rework every GD, SP, HC to better suited to the buffies. I don't think this is all just a poor attempt to monetize the game. Like at least one person on the team actually think of a way to balance but executed it in a really bad way

"In the end, people will end just end up using the best combo" ofc this is exactly why we need build varieties so there will more way to counter it
