So, Kabam ruined EQ and now it is destroying Arenas
Now that Kabam has ruined EQ, it seems to have set it sights on Arenas. The addition of new defensive champs that require specific counters are making many arena fights unwinnable. That is irritating, but manageable if you only get one such champ per match. But now, Kabam is stacking two or three new defensive champs in one match, virtually guaranteeing that you eventually lose your streak. I just lost my streak in the premium arena after slogging through about six such matches. I managed to win the first five, but eventually worked down my roster far enough that my teams did not have the firepower to overcome the built in defensive advantages of these new champs.
I am mostly FTP and use the game to pass time by playing EQ, side quests and arena. Until this month, most of those fights required attention but were not overly difficult. That has changed dramatically. I quit spending when Enchantress and Arcade were added to the game because I won’t pay money to play a game that forces us to fight such unfair champs. But EQ, side quests and arena were still mostly fair, so I kept a sigil subscription and kept playing. That has changed. I don’t know what Kabam’s goal is, but making most of the game too difficult to enjoy does not seem like a smart move.
Well, can’t play EQ, can’t play arenas, so not much left to do. Sad. This game used to be fun.
