"Super Evil..." it's all in the name

Like Vainglory, the devs have largely abandoned this game, so there's not much point supporting it by investing real money.

I have a build that gives me tremendous advantages over other players (without spending real money), so I get to enjoy facerolling everyone except the hard-core pay-to-play players, often scoring between 50-70 kills per game (without any deaths); but I don't imagine this is much fun for players on the receiving end.

Once you invest a certain amount of time in a specific build it becomes detrimental to change, because it takes too long to level up multiple gear sets enough to gain access to their unique advantages. So, if you picked the wrong build based on personal play style, thinking it will balance out with the other builds over the long run, you thought wrong. For example, mortar and rocket builds will rollstomp assault/battle rifle builds. Always. Assault rifles have short range and are blocked by obstacles, whereas rockets and mortars have great range and can bypass obstacles, while also providing concussive damage, meaning accuracy doesn't matter much. Rockets/mortars feel like God-mode, which gets boring after a while.

The store provides little variety, and unless you don't mind spending hundreds of dollars on legendary gear sets (and more to level them up), there isn't much to buy that will enhance your game experience.

Players eventually discover this and feel like they've been conned into playing a game that has no interest in being fair and balanced.

My advice is play it casually, and don't invest a dime.

It’s been a good 3 years

Been playing this since it was released with iPhone 13 Pro. At this point I’m seeing the same players that are incredibly OP. Impossible to hit and impossible to kill. There’s no more balanced matches. It’s either all bots or the one real player that’s all powerful destroying you and your team. It’s time to delete. It was fun but not it’s just frustrating to no end. Takes away all the fun in the game. I have to leave the match because I know I will lose and even if I stay and kill bots I get almost nothing for reward. Game has become garbage with zero enjoyment.

Why?

Abandoning Vainglory for this… what a joke. Turned out how everyone expected. Waste of time and effort. Now Vainglory is just a memory with this game to take its place. Will never forgive SEMC

Message to the team

This game is quite promising, but needs a bit of change. Need to market the game and also add customisation. The characters just look like fortnight. Please add skins into the game and effects to make it attractive. Different weapons other than guns would be good. I love this company since vainglory days. It will increase revenue as well as help with numbers. Take inspiration from vainglory pls. Don’t make it too easy for players to attain things but still keep a balance.
