Fun Until It’s Frustrating

Game is fun for a while, but something isn’t right about the balance of it. It’s very easy for it to seem like you and your opponents are not playing the same game. Some games it feels like you’re two turns behind, some games you’re the one two turns ahead. Some games it seems your opponents just leave and their board never changes, and you can tie the game into infinity. This makes me believe that the asynchronous nature of the game just takes random snapshots of boards up to a point and then it’ll just give you the same one forever until the games over. The strategy aspect of this just feels nonexistent.

It’s probably better to save yourself the headache and not download this.

Stupid

So I was having a good run but had to change apps for sixty seconds. POOF. RUN VANISHED.

New predatory IAPs

I used to really support this game - advertised it to all my friends and anyone looking for a fun game they can play on the go. I spent a fair amount of money just to support the developers because I really believed they were onto something good. Unfortunately, their recent patch added in a new monetization for an in-game advantage. It adds up to $45… at its discounted price. There’s no way for free-to-play players to unlock these advantages. It’s one thing to lock cosmetics behind a paywall, but doing it to gameplay is completely different. It’s scummy and unnecessary.

Paid Rerolls are a terrible idea

The game has a just problem with captain bloat, with each requiring all cards to be unlocked all over again and each diluting the chances of seeing any other.champion in your picks. Selling the "solution" for 60 bucks and another 20 for every set is just a terrible, greedy idea that leaves all non-whale players in the dust.
