KGB said: I think they did it from a thematic point of view. In other words Carol destroying her own teams tiles just seems like the wrong thing to do (ie not heroic).Technically speaking, not destroying her own teams tiles when her green fires is a boost, not a nerf because you still have the tiles after the Green power resolves and any non-destroyed strikes would add to the damage when all the additional rows are destroyed. It's only considered a nerf by some of the player base because of the interaction with BRB/Polaris (corner case).She desperately needs a rework of her powers because she's just so lame right now and her 4* version is just so good. The disappointment when she was released is another reason why so many were unhappy because they SO MUCH wanted to find a way to make her relevant.KGB

So it's definitely a nerf to her intended design.

A lot of other players didn't even notice that it happened, or maybe knew but didn't care. In certain circles this didn't even come up. I had no idea it happened at all.I think the problem is that the "right" players weren't affected by it.
