What's the Power Level?
« on: February 03, 2012, 05:08:20 PM »
...of the things you find overpowered in brawls?

The new scoreboard calls for a penalty to be invoked if you use an item on a list of restricted items. However, the criteria for what is restrict-able is very unclear. Does it mean restrict overused items? Does it mean heavily hinder unbeatable strategies?

The purpose of this topic is to state what you find overpowered in the current meta (S1 - S4) and how much it should be penalized based on how overpowered you feel it is. I'll start off with a list of things that would more than likely be obvious:

Minor:

Double Turn cards - These are notorious for causing a huge advantage for the user with little hindrance.
Mana Surge - The base of a lot of really strong combos and loopholes.
Random G-power Bakugan - Until there's a randomizer around, these will just be Infinity Helios' children.

Major

S/G Drago - Just no. Having 2 free bakugan with no sacrifice is ridiculous.
Infinity Helios - Having the free ability to choose G-powers?

you get the idea

We can just wait for ricky's next "original" strategy to add things to the list.

Crushing Blow is often pretty cheap since its a Gold card that is lowest G wins. All you need to do is pair it with another lowest G card and a Ventus and you pretty much won the battle.

Granted Pudd's whole startegy was pretty cheap. Needle's Eye, Ventus, Dan's Throw, Blue misprinted Attractor, and 3 Ventus Bakus with low gs.

Misprints would be another thing to just flat out ban. Black Ventus and Attractor. I mean there are cards that counter his strat easy but most people don't use them. I beat him when he used that nonsense. He never beat me actually, as far as I remember.

I had a chance to beat him, but blew it by using Stealin' to take Dan's Throw instead of Ventus.

crushing blow is definitely something to ban. Misprints can be banned if they pose way too much of a threat alone (ie not using both), otherwise it may just be use of both.
