Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: FaB Counter at 5.0 against Shadowverse's 4.3. FaB Counter also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). Shadowverse's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 83%) and ratings volume (20 vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
