Please Nerf Wiggs
Will i be called a nerf whiner for this?
I don't think I've called for a nerf on anything before as all other cheap characters have not made the game as boring as this. I don't feel i even have to explain this properly. Wiggs and Landakin teams (teams with all four) are simply the cheapest thing I've ever seen in any game. their damage so far outstrips everyone else its a joke. They can kill everyone on any team through AOE and no skill! A ridiculous strategy for any 5v5 turn based game that should never happen. In a game where all you do is choose moves, rather than one where you actually play and use skill like a shooting game or sports game, you would think that strategy would be used to win battles. things like using certain debuffs, even having to manipulate turn order can be fun-ish, choosing certain teams to beat other teams, having farmed the right toons to do that, choosing the right move at the right times, even some rng changing battles can be cool. The game was doing ok in respect to this before wiggs. I still think that battles were a bit rubbish before because they are decided after 1 turn (or before it even starts) rather than being long/drawn out giving everyone a chance to use their skills and the battle swinging back and forth (aka being fun). This, rather than speed mods, is the root of the arena problems for me but that's another issue.
But the battles were ok. Now, against everyone, wiggs and landakin are done in 20 seconds. How creative is this game!?!?!? Just have three guys that drop bombs and kill all the toons you need to kill in the first round. Oh and the single best attack in the game from biggs will kill whoever you need. Oh and they're all the fastest. If you haven't got bored of this team after 1 battle you are too easily entertained. You just press AOE and you're done. Ive been consistently beaten by other teams in the past and not cared and just accepted that i need other toons to get past them (and then farmed those toons). I've played wiggs twice and had enough. I didn't even care that much about pathetic obi-wan/han rng teams, i just dealt with it. But they take it too far their damage is silly and they can destroy any team. Probably even without any mods they could still own any team. I've not even mentioned a 5th character but any number of nightmares can be inserted.
FYI I don't have wedge, i played them for the first time today, they had perfect mods and about a 40-speed deficit on every character. I lost twice then won twice, fairly luckily. I still think they're awful. I was going to farm him when he came out as i have all the other guys you need but then i realised how lame it is and decided not to go the pathetic route. I'm sure he will be nerfed after about a month, or two because CG hates doing things. Although i think that even after a nerf that team will still be very strong against so many setups. Hopefully they'll make it so they can't just kill everything in sight before an actual battle can take place ASAP. Before you all start, I'm not crying cos I can't beat him, I'm finding this game pathetic because 20-second death by AOE meta is what a 5 year old wants from this game. seriously only 5-year olds think thats a good game when you just press a button and do loads of fun fun fun high numbers to everyone and then yaaaaaaaaayyyyy fight over!!!!! I wooonnnn yippeeeeeeee!!!! The only people who should be happy with this team are 5- 10 year olds who have their wiggs teams.
Go for the lateral nerf if you have to - make rex f2p and/or add other aoe counters/wiggs counters. I mean multiple strong counters to this trash. I do think they'll go this route.
Or preferably just take a nerfbat straight to the source and knock the smiles off of wedge and Biggs' faces. Knock them right off the face of swgearth never to be seen again. Who even saw them in the films? I'd bet they have a combined 15 seconds of screen time. There is no way i could care less for random biggs darklighter and wedge antilles. who are you. go away. I know this obviously won't happen but its what i'd like personally. They don't deserve to even be strong characters at all (let alone far and away the strongest), they deserve to be average.
I think eventually they will straight nerf damage as well so they are not as crazy as they are now and id hope they would have trouble with certain teams (like all other setups do, forcing you to change tactics depending on the battle), and i think they will release toons that can stop their aoe fest somehow.
But for now, this is the most pathetic 5-year-old meta I have seen in any game and I want it out its so so lame i'm fed up already and I've only played two wiggs teams.
