Mace Nerfed On Arrival

"The preview last Friday showed 50% Turn Meter on Mace’s new Basic Ability instead of 15% Turn Meter. This was a balance change that came late in the testing process and was done after the interview."

I'm still excited for the rework (50% TM does seem like a lot given all the speed-boosting leaders that are out there), and understand he was still in beta, but CG isn't helping the meme that they love to nerf characters.

    is it really a nerf if the playable version never had +50% TM gain?

    They balance tested before release, which is nice

    It just shows that the information given the Hynesy was available for quite a while back


    Do they use Siri to transcribe their kits?

    Poor mace. I guess a $5 shake was to much so now he gets a $1.50 shake after CG_John reviewed CG_Uma test results.


    You'll get oat milk and like it.

    I'm honestly not surprised.
    First of all, this new kit is shouting for a nerf. Its just way too op, especially for a free character everyone has.
    Secondly, CG quality. Say something on one day, and 2 days later they just change it. Their words don't seem to matter one bit.


    Yeah I mean they hard nerfed Vader around a year after his update, so at least CG is Nerfing mace before his update is out this time.
  • The fact that he received a nerf already isn't shocking or surprising. CG actually testing something prior to release on the other hand....

    everyone gets mad because they dont test

    they test and discover a needed change

    everyone gets mad that they "nerf"

    its not even a nerf its rebalancing based on testing

    i mean really


    You don't release kit details until you are finished your testing and have the final product ready for roll-out. Just more CG kindergarten antics. They were more interested in how they were going to stream the release and reveal this to Ram-Bam. They forgot they actually had a job to do.
