And no, the fact that the majority of players in pretty much any game are always going to say they prefer a more powerful version of an ability/character over a less powerful one isn't worth noting or meaningful at all. Asking player for their opinion on nerfs is like the commercial where they asked a bunch of kids do they want a bigger or smaller version of, well, anything.

Those 2 people are certainly entitled to their views, but they sure don't seem to match the majority and that's well worth noting. You didn't "note" it, you said it's "sad."

I think the blue has taken slightly too much of a hit, someone said 8 charged tiles, I agree. Just because you've spent money on it, doesn't stop it from being bad for the game. Would probably be a larger uproar if xforce was balanced again, but tbh he needs it. For all other characters to be obsolete for anyone who can spend a bit of money on thor/xforce, it makes no sense. They want to get away from that 1 or 2 characters that matter, I'd rather have 5 combinations of characters that would take down a good enemy rather than "If you dont use xforce/thor, you lose" You want the 'pay to win' method, spend your money, get the nuke team but to what end... using different characters brings a different level of enjoyment rather than constantly doing the same thing over and over. You're fighting a losing battle and threatening to go to apple/google is just pathetic. It's not the worst change ever to hit MPQ, if you like playing the game then you shut up.

Raffoon wrote: KrazyKeylime wrote: what if smite's missing damage was added to power surge Not a bad idea, and thanks for keeping it constructive! In terms of power, I think that adding some more of the lost damage from smite could be a step in the right direction. Personally, in terms of gameplay and fun, I think that charged tiles are the thing that makes Thor fun and unique. The more charged tiles there are, the more you get to interact with the mechanic, and the more fun the character is to play. Since the additional damage on Power Surge would have to come out of the skill's budget, I think it would be more fun to have more charged tiles in play, rather than do that damage up front on Power Surge itself.
