BGS are not enjoyable

I’ve been playing MCoC for years now and have always appreciated how Battlegrounds gave both F2P and spending players a fair competitive space. But the current GC meta has completely ruined that balance, especially for F2P players like me.
This re-parry + stun-based meta demands that you:
Stun the opponent (which now depends on re-parry),
Time everything perfectly,
And worst of all, rely on the AI to cooperate.
Problem? The AI rarely does.
Re-parrying is clunky, unreliable, and doesn’t work consistently on all champs.
Dexing too much causes regen because you’re waiting for them to throw specials.
Passive AI becomes even worse when my deck is filled with Rank 3 champs and I face whale accounts full of Rank 4 champs. It’s just not a fair fight anymore.
Even with perfect inputs and strategy, I lose because the AI simply won’t throw specials, or I get punished trying to bait. This isn't fun. It’s not competitive. It’s stressful. BGs used to be a fun escape — now it just feels like work I don’t get paid for.
KABAM: If the AI isn’t controllable or fair, please don’t make metas that are AI-reliant. Give us metas that reward skill and roster diversity — not meta-specific champs and deck power inflation.
Until then, I’ll either stick to Victory Track or take a break entirely. This isn't the experience long-time F2P players deserve.

I just don't like that people like me not interested on the showdown have to play the qualifying meta.

It's like master luthiers who aren't professional musicians.
Not every luthier can spend all day building guitars and practicing too at the highest level, especially if you have something else going on in your life on top of that.
What if during the Battle Brawl, Kabam also set up a side tournament for Kabam staffs, I think it is time we find out who is the Kabam top BG dog.
Of course KarateMike and MSD can only be commentators (not allowed for participation).
Would love to see @KabamPinwheel take on @KabamDORK
Price:- a Special title "Kabam BG top dog" and 1 week extra holiday.
Come on @Kabam Crashed , let make it happen. 🤩
In summary, I'm not enjoying this

The current AI is completely unplayable against. They don't play their own game and it shows.
