The balance between Plants & Zombies

Eh. I’m done for now until the next round of nerfing. I used to have a handful of competitive plant decks and would work my way up to ultimate league each season. Sometimes slower or quicker than others. But now I get smoked way too many times in a row for it to be enjoyable. Conman with the unkillable history trick . Stompadon plus virus. The untrickable instant death avalanche. Zombies have way too many cheap early easy no skill decks that just avalanche even a clever player early.

There are surely decks that can handle the too-early onslaught of high damage killers. Or durable. But I don’t have the cards and will no longer spend any more to get them.

For the longest time I played for free and despite a shallow deck I could win and learn and it was enjoyable. Then actually bought cards a couple of times and enjoyed the plant decks I built. But bad luck and bad timing, as soon as I spent real money on the game the Colossal deck dropped in and suddenly the cards I paid to get were worthless and pointless.

Futility isn’t fun. I’m an okay player. Can build a decent deck. Or used to before the most recent wave of cards hit.

But now the seesaw has tilted so far that it’s just no fun to play. Ok maybe I just got worse. But I’ve been playing for a while and other sets never had this far of a pendulum swing.

It gets tedious. You see the same zombie decks again and again and there’s no room to play more that the optimized few on the plant side. Little room for creativity on a budget anymore. So yeah. I’m out. I may peek in every now and again to see if there are changes wiothout infkstion and power creep. But as it stands. Eh. It’s just not fun right now.
