What defender node buffs are you tired of seeing?

Protection.

Degen/Direct damage---there are not enough champs in the game who are degen immune, to help counter this "working as intended to drain your cash, units, and revives" node.

Unblockable.

Omg yes. My initial list just got longer 😂

Depends on the defender the nodes are paired with more than anything else.

When your account gets big enough its much easier to find counters to stupid annoying stuff.

Basically anything with glancing / protection

RDR2Jammy

Basically any glancing node to ever exist

I hate Protection nodes. Damage is just arbitrarily reduced until you do a certain action, and then it get reduced again after a short intervall. They are not hard (at least not on their own), but they just drag fights out and add nothing fun.

I actually much prefer something like Destructive Feedback, which in some ways works similar to Protection nodes since there are periods where you can and can't do damage, but where you actually have to change how you play. I find that to be a pretty fun node and I had a great time fighting the Kingpin that stood on that node in the current SQ.

But just mindless damage reduction? It's just boring.

If you don't touch opponent for x seconds, something will happen - The most bs nodes to ever exist. Like, How am I supposed to deal with bruteforce degen if opponent is holding specials at 2.9 bars of power?

Also any node that punishes dashing back, like dash back and get disorient, or No retreat Kind of nodes.

Right now... X-machina and magic thief.

If it were just Wars for weeks on end, that would be fine, but also adding it to BGs its overkill.

If it were a generic "XL champs get +15% attack and XS checks get -15% attack" on defense, and on attack Hero champs get +15% attack villain get -15% attack.... it would encourage using the tactic without it being impossible without, have some "dual threat" champs, and the pool of champs would be much larger / wouldn't see the same champs over and over again.

This is pretty much a forced decision, and with a BG deck of 30, your are pretty much forced to use exactly the same 30 champs.

Makes me just want to do 3 fights every 2 days, and not progress to gladiator circuit until the last possible minute (not throwing any fights, just not doing enough to get there)

Mix Master can die an unholy death as far as I'm concerned. I've adjusted to it. I still don't like it.

Let's add life cycle to that mix too.

And best believe that's when the AI will barrel towards you, forcing you to push it to sp 3, or take the degen

Lmfao I share this feeling. It's even more annoying when your champs are reliant on certain combo rotation

Every 5 hits you get a charge. Intercept will remove two charges, Heavy attack remove on charge.

When opponent takes final hit, you will take damage for each charge on opponent. The worst thing is, these charges expire one at a time, so you cannot avoid it with indestructible effects.

This is the global node of 6.2.5 mordo quest. Kabam be making stupid nodes like this and wonder why we spam Hercules (Like he literally counters everything bout this node haha).

combat deja vu nodes. Never been a fan of it.
Basically every types of nodes that force players to have a specific playstyle for it

Midnightfox

Unblockable and unstoppable. It’s everywhere and stupidly overused at this point. Oh yeah and protection nodes.

Game is oversaturated with them. Unblockable is in the current BG meta. Like seriously?? In a TIMED fight, you have to wait out the unblockable buff. That wastes time! Smh.
