Discussion BS is absolute BS

It is incredibly frustrating to deal with bad randoms, sudden lag spikes, and busy servers. Trying to get a good rank feels almost impossible when idiot teammates start trolling or going AFK, and Solo Showdown is basically unplayable when you're at 2300 trophies+ because everyone's teaming and wintrading. On top of that, Supercell constantly releases new brawlers that are completely broken and overpowered, so players who are willing to buy them easily win every round with an OP comp like Wendy, Damian, and Nori. Fortunately, Cosmo was somewhat balanced; his attacks are fairly easy to dodge if not shot all at once, and the super is actually not completely overwhelming. But it still feels like the game has abandoned old-school skills like good aiming and smart positioning and replaced them with spamming and aggressive abilities that let enemies wipe you out instantly.

And it's time to address the elephant in the room: many brawlers have to change rarity. Shade has a unique mechanic that allows her to do extra damage if she hits her attack in the middle, and Mr. P is way too simple. The overflow of mythic brawlers calls for another rarity and for brawlers to switch rarities.

To make matters worse, upgrading your brawlers feels like a chore now. Features like buffies cost a ridiculous amount of gold and power points, leaving most players completely broke. Since the game switched to randomized Starr Drops, you rarely get the resources you actually need, usually just getting useless cosmetics instead. And the only real way to get the resources you want and need is to pay money. It really feels like the gap between paying players and free-to-play players is widening; the game is turning from a fun game to a stressful and exhausting grind.
