Yeah, that's the thing though. People don't adapt. If you take away Onslaught, Gentle, Jean, and Captain Britain. Then there are no counters to Yelena. They release more counters to defenders after they come out. It's in the video you didn't watch yet feel the need to comment on.

I find this line of reasoning to be pretty silly. Poor Kabam designers… players adapt to their challenges and raise their skill cap in response… what can they do but build unfair mechanics in response?

Really? That’s the only option? Nah, that’s just the laziest option. Kinda like making a check list of attacker abilities and building a laundry list defender kit to counter them. They created the loop, no sympathy here.

Maybe design new abilities that change the paradigm like Karolina and her interaction with sunshine. Explore actual new design space… what a concept!

I would personally just give him a numbers buff if I were to give one but he’s not bad at wasting time imo

Hey pals, going to see what I can do about this.

loved the truth video about Kabam she hit every point 100%

this is brilliant. She is spot on. @Kabam - we see you. Stop w the bs, I’ve cut spending in half, and have one foot out, for many reasons outlined. Changes or bust🤷🏻‍♂️, for this 12.5 M acct player .

But that's not really a problem. How many players are "too good"? The top 10% of players? You're telling me 100% of the playerbase in 100% of the game modes needs to be inflicted with BS defenders because the 10% of players who can easily handle them in BGs (a mode that less than a majority of players are invested in) will find it too easy?

And even then, the argument still doesn't have merit.

Players A, B, C, D, E, F think Korg is too easy a defender. But how is that a problem, because a match then comes down to SKILL when each of these players place Korg as a defender.

"WE NEED BS DEFENDERS".

Player A, B, C, D spend money to obtain BS DEFENDER #42, while Players E and F chose not to spend. Now Players A, B, C, D get instant wins when placing their defenders, while Players E and F lose out.

But….. Players A, B, C, D think BS DEFENDER #42 is too easy because they also bought OVERPRICED COUNTER #3 and #4, so now the match comes down to SKILL.

In essence, BS Defenders just means (1) more money for Kabam, (2) Players interested in Skill competition get excluded, (3) the game is still too easy for players who bought said champions since now $$$ replaces skill most of the time, (4) The entire playerbase is forced to deal with BS defenders in every piece of content that exists.

You can argue that BS Defenders add more fun to the game. Most people would disagree that they are more fun, but similar to how people love Soulslike games it is not an unreasonable argument. But to argue that BS Defenders are necessary because otherwise the game is too easy, doesn't make much sense.

Wait until you hear he said 6* Torch = 7* Torch after I posted a 7* Torch doing 52k against a R4 Thing, don't waste your spit.

They definitely made the point values too close. Crazy how many opportunities to farm have come up since they eliminated the solo event to help prevent farming.
