I have some of the same complaints. It will make money for some years, I think. Bots and mutli-account are my biggest peeve.
I was told the SL team THEMSELVES run low level bots for 'match liquidity', but these bots don't 'win prizes'
I guess it's okay in their mind, to waste people's time! They have no respect for REAL players, but just BOTS! NO ONE WANTS TO PLAY BOTS. PERIOD.
As author points out, only your pandering groupies go along with the 'it's fine' narrative. The baby-mods in training looking for their brownie points so that they can oh so coy and subtley insult anyone that speaks against the way things are.
I hate how the chat is run. 'Purples' publically petitioning for other members to get banned. This adds fuel to the fire. A REAL mod would shut those snowflakes up and tell them, that they have no right to petition for a ban! Weaklings.
They need bots because of the high range of cards, from level 1 to level 10. The value between this is extreme. The players are too thin because of this. They match against people with an ELO SO LOW that the opponet stastiically has a 0% chance to win. This is not fun.
So yea I sold 2/3 of what I had and only hold the rest to delegate to the guild I made. I'll probably trade the things while some people still enjoy the game.
