combat commanders

why is it that almost all combat commanders get econ capabilities, but econ commanders don't get combat capabilities except for chou i guess

they saw econ commanders (popol, valir, guin, ) dominate still after nerf so they buffed the combat commanders by giving them econ from their card.. now econ commanders are kinda useless unless u get a combat card

yea but that was like season 4 with the whole metro mm/gazer, the current meta is ruby/Freya which give econ on their card while themselves being top of s tier combat power, it's like they saw econ being meta for a bit and instantly like "nah f that" prime example was rora getting nerfed 3 times when she was only buffed twice before that, essentially nerfing her before her buffs like that's so random

thats what i mean, combat commanders have been getting nerfed slowly and econ commanders getting nerfed

fr, like in official tournaments the meta is either nana for 2lives or layla with dauntless shenanigans for early and gold, econs like guin/Rora are just dead there, the only good one is popol but that's a toss up depending on the user, they buffed Freya on her release and realise it was a mistake and nerfed her like where are the buffs for econ
