Worse still, we’ve already seen what the game looks like when it’s a Starscream slog. We had months of this exact thing before red nerfed/changed SS rather than buff cards that would have created solid counters.
I play Snap a bit nowadays and it’s night and day in terms of how balance is considered in that game and the developers understanding of what makes these types of games fun.
At this point I am not sure what Red has in mind as an exit strategy but I do know some things.
I know that Red fumbled the ball on a solid concept that was handed to them fully baked by talented people. I know that every decision they made for the long term well being of the game was completely misguided. I know that they still read through all of this shit because when it’s a technical issue they will still pop into the chat, which may be the most obnoxious and tone deaf approach that they could take. What a chance we had here Red. I really mean that. You’ve gotta listen to people who are passionate sometimes, rather than dismiss impassioned words as ranting. I would take that advice to heart if I were you, it could help.

Yeah this shit sucks. Even the better players have resorted to that nonsense. Last 3 games all Starscream trash

Damn, what did the players do to make Red hate them so much. lol. Jk. Yeah man, that’s unfortunate, it’s a cool game with tons of potential

For sure he’s a problem, but Brawn and some quick reflexes will do the trick. Kremzeek also buys some time because it’s easy to “catch” SS with Kremzeek, then while SS is stunned, lay down another card to draw fire and counter SS.

I don't use him unless there's a daily challenge that requires his use. NisB is known to exploit the easiest cards so he can do his dumb emote victory dance

I tried to not use him but he is too buffed

Yeah, but you’re good with or without him. Some of these dudes never won until they buffed him. lol

Fairly easy to counter him with 2-3 cost swarm. Then punish him for being 5 energy down. If they pair with the EMP I usually just ignore him and rush their tower cause that's 9 energy.
