Let’s try to design fun bg metas going forward

What designer came up with this played it and said gee golly this will be super fun for the whole community and they will heap praise on me and love me. I want what they were smoking cuz this is the worst meta ever. Killing the game 1 day at a time…..

cauz the defender champs have become so complicated is hard for a universal node for bgs ,9.3 didnt have serpent /bulleye/ enchantress as bosses because it would make it too difficult with the extra nodes of story quest .

it’s not the metas anymore. Too many rigid defenders have ruined the mode.

I think its both the rigid defenders as you say and the nodes, Its just not fun at all anymore.

If you find yourself always complaining about the meta, the metas probably not the problem.

Sadly, this might be the case, and there's nothing they can do about it, we're stuck with it forever.

I have a solid deck, and even have Karo, Nico, and SW all at r4. If my opponent gets a few of them, they run over my r4 Serp, Dark Phoenix, and Thanos, and I lose against theirs or I lose against their Yelena if I don't pick up Sinister, Onslaught, or Jean.

They've made so many broken defenders that need specific counters, fighting skill has taken a backseat.

Absman was a difficult defender at release, but he could be taken by a lot of champs if we learned how he works. Same with Kindred.

Not so much anymore. We either have the right tools or get wrecked. I

They could and should rebalance the worst offenders. They won’t though as they’d have to acknowledge they were wrong about those piles of BS ever being balanced

It’s the tyranny (and the trap) of RPG design principles.

Honestly, I wouldn’t even play BGs anymore except for the milestones for climbing out of VT.

Seems like this is the worst meta this season. Wait till next season and there will be many posts about this being the worst season. Lets make it no nodes and the player with the biggest roster of high damage dealers win. Wait a minute, that only makes the whale accounts better. Hmmm. Maybe if we make it that you can only use 2 star champs and everyone gets all of them to use. This sounds like the Doom bots thing, it's been done and wasn't like by the majority of the players. Lets combine the 2, BG with only 2 stars and everyone has access to them. This sounds like a great plan. There can't be any problem with this idea. Why is nobody spending to rank up the 7 star champs or trying to acquire the newest champs 7 star champs. So revenue for Kabam is down 90% percent, no big deal, they can run adds to make up for it. What, I need to watch a one minute commercial for every 10 second fight I do. I'm not Interest in doing that, I think it's time to play another game……
