Ok hear me out before the disagree spams
I think BGs shouldn't have power related nodes like Spite, Power Snack, Vivified etc.
I'm not saying all power nodes
Nodes like enhanced power gain, AOE, conflictor, energize, empowered immunity, backup recovery etc. are fine
Just not the ones that rely excessively on defender AI where sometimes u can't do anything about it no matter how much u bait
In AW it was fine bcoz,
1. There are only a few encounters with such nodes, most of which are on path 7, with 1 mini boss at the end of Section 1
2. We have our entire roster (except 3 bans) to come up with an appropriate counter
3. We have the option to use indestructible boosts in risky power gain situations
But in BGs it might cause a similar situation like we saw with the summoner showdown where the results might rely more on defender AI than on player skills
There are some champs who can effectively counter these nodes but champs with such abilities are still not common in the contest & not guaranteed to end up in ur 7/30
