Re: Useless hero abilities

In what league are you?

I see all the things I've listed in 80% of my games.

(Right now I'm in Taco League, lvl 40)

Ultimate. I climbed 0-->50 in 3-4 weeks

That's exactly what I was trying to tell. Many beastly zombies play Smashing Gargantuar on turn 5. If you have the Whirlwind superpower, you use it and you still have 4 suns to play whatever you want. (almost like a free turn).

Or many players spent their 3rd turn buffing their 1st/2nd turn card (with Vitamin-Z or Fertilize). You Whirlwind it back, and you can play whatever you want.

If you really have reached Ultimate League, you should know that. I'm surprised how you keep complaining about how a card can be "useless".

That's something people at low rank usually do.

1. both of your examples assume there is only one zombie on the board

2. you may gain a turn advantage, but you lose a card advantage.

Maybe I reached ultimate league because I understand flaws of the game and avoid them, unlike you.

How a card that you say it's "useless" can be considered a game "flaw"?

It's not like it's bugged or something, the card is doing what it is supposed to do.

1.- THAT is when you are supposed to play this card. If you play it on a full board, of course you are going to think it's effect it's useless.

2.- Yes, but you gain tempo advantage, and that's what the game is all about. You bounce a zombie/plant that would definitely kill you (Strikethrough, for example), or you bounce a zombie/plant that prevents you from getting letal (Undying Pharaoh, Soul Patch)
