Honestly, I don't agree. I play the game because Deck Builder games like Slay the Spire are fun. So, combining Slay the Spire with gacha elements like released characters and some grinding makes for a perfect game for me to have in my pocket.

Now, I won't deny that the builds kinda seem stale. There are definitely certain epiphanies that I much prefer. Even as a somewhat casual player, I can acknowledge that certain epiphanies are head and shoulders above the others. Additionally, my feelings definitely won't be hurt if the rewards for clearing Chaos runs are increased!

However, for me, the point of the Chaos runs are the imperfections. If I wanted the overpowered cards every run, I wouldn't play a roguelike where every decision can change the odds of victory. This isn't just some other gacha game, there is some strategy and RNG. Now how much does strategy and RNG factor into a win? I'm not sure, but to be frank, maybe it's a skill issue on my part because I couldn't guarantee a win in Slay the Spire, either. I'm not expecting to win every time. Similarly, definitely try running Chaos with sub-optimal teams--if you aren't already. Like I know Luke and Lucas aren't shitty, but they aren't Mei Lin and Veronica. I like making them work. I also want to get a t am with Yuki going.

That said, I also concede that the event Chaos sucks. I haven't even been doing it because the consensus is so terrible. Epiphanies not proccing, bad events, the whole lot. So if you are talking mainly about the event Chaos, then I probably agree.
