There are two, equally important I would suggest, issues at play here:
Game Balance.
Receiving what you paid for ( / what you saved for, if FTP)
If they bothered to make TC20 or forgotten heroes like Khaghan or Obakan more useful this would solve both issues.
Nerfing a hero multiple times (while good for game balance) is against the spirit of offering something, getting everyone to rely on what was represented and then changing it after the fact.
Sure it might make game balance sense but itās a surefire way to anger the mob on one side of the fence.
The option of balancing undesirable / terrible heroes (or at least make them useful) makes this an overall better game for everyone and goes a long way towards fixing the problem. Not suggesting this is easy by any means. It takes more effort and resources, sure, but Iād suggest is the right thing to do.
But for commercial (rather than purely gaming) reasons I donāt expect them to take this approach.
The best and easy way to destroy GTV meta at this point without nerfing to the ground Vela is to change Vela color to something like Red (Green will be too similar to Zeline). And change water damage to burn damage that she can overwrite GM or JF.
I love the idea of bringing back the purple tankā¦
Actually Ursena, Kunchen and other great purple heroes were the tank just before GTV.
In addition, Clarissa will make purple tank even more interesting.
with such rebalances (you will lose not only players (intermediate level), but also experienced players in the future), you need to change the class (of Teluria emblems), vela just needs to be made similar to the gravemaker (if you consider it in balance ā¦). it will not overpower (for three targets with very fast mana, randomness 1-3 targets in defense), but players who have (vela) it will not lose the resources spent on it, and this output is overnerf (vela), this nerf will destroy the vela as hero not only as a hero of defense but also an attack, make it an equal gravemaker
If it doesnāt change the result, that means the problem is Telly not Vela because Gravemaker have been here for years without making blue tank as strong as Telly.
Locked so horrendous blundering can continue unabated. Almost 9 months and counting since Vela was released and youāre telling us she isnāt fixed yet?
Iāll say it again, get rid of both of them and be done with it. SG is only highlighting how horribly inefficient they are at balancing/re-balancing heroes. Youāre not winning any points with anyone. Just proving incompetence.
Very bad defence team. In case of Ursena - no healing, no mana slow, no high defence + 25% of paladin. I can ez break this defence with 3 x yellow + 2 x blue even if Ursena get mana first. In case of Telluria it will not work. And Ursena more rare hero than Telluria so we wouldnāt see it too much as Telluria
the difference in speed between fast and average mana is 2 tiles. In defense is even more negligible especially having mana troops helps average mana heroes more than they help fast mana heroes. Indeed 110% vs 130% argument shows how stupidly Beta5 versions are thought through.
For every one who itās for nerf on Telluria and Vela again, I will give you this opportunit without them, I put just one 1* hero on defence, you guys are welcome to fight against me and letās see if this will be fun for you.
Yeah without gtv we have no 5* def anymore ā¦ Did you read what you wrote ā¦ i forgot those 3 are the only 5* heroes that are in the game. What infantil comment is that? Come down
I really donāt understand why they donāt change Telluriaās speed to slow and improve their specialās to 3 Turns.
Change Vela to a Blue Clarissa, et voilaā¦
