Bad batch = trash
Why did you nerf the already poor bad batch? Why did you make them a raid team if you re going to make them that bad? What is wrong with you?
Forum Discussion
They nerved the tiers below r7 and corrected the behavior of the DS clones. So nothing changed for r7 except that there is more RNG involved.
I don’t think that’s true. Have you read the update post? Update 7-9-2025 | EA Forums - 12327221
Bad Batch had been getting their event buff, that was only supposed to be active at tier 7 (which is the r9 tier, not the r7 tier), in all tiers. Now they are not.
So any change that has affected tiers below r7 has also affected the r7 tier.
And again, I’m not sure why forumers keep calling this a “nerf” or even a “nerve”. Bad Batch are performing exactly as the raid rules describe when they previously weren’t.
Max score is still obtainable with good modding and good strategy, yet still forumers come here in their droves to make out Bad Batch are unusable in the raid. This isn’t the first time a squad has needed something a little more nuanced than button mashing to achieve their raid potential, and I doubt it will be the last.
I'm calling it a nerf because when an update makes a team/build/etc weaker, the gaming word for that is "nerf". Yes, BB2 were benefitting from a bug. Yes, CG quickly announced there was a bug and that they would fix it. A bugfix can be a nerf. These are not mutually exclusive.
