A comment in reddit - Dear Scopely, congratulations, you officially ruined the game for every veteran and pro player who has been here since the Kitka Games era. I’ve spent my time, my skill, and my real money on this game, and this new update is an absolute joke.First of all, what did you do to the Rewind combo? Before this patch, using Rewind was a high-skill mechanic that allowed us to instantly use our other maxed abilities (Punch, Ball, Jump) right after returning. Now, you added a garbage global cooldown and completely killed the combo spam. If my abilities were on cooldown before Rewind, I now have to just stand there and wait like a noob. You completely destroyed the dynamic flow of the match.Second, the Punch nerf is a total disaster. Killing the air momentum and stopping the character dead in its tracks after hitting someone completely ruins the skill gap. You are catering to casual players who don't know how to press buttons, while punishing veterans who spent years mastering movement and trick shots.Third, the new linear upgrade system is a scam. Forcing us to pay the full 60,000 tokens just to max out power and range because we are now forced to upgrade the useless cooldown stat is pure corporate greed.On top of that, you removed all visual variants for abilities, took away the Workshop, and made the Stumble Pass strictly pay-to-win with real money. I just bought the new pass for $4, and I already regret spending a single dollar on this garbage patch.I’m completely done with this game. You killed the skill, you killed the community, and you turned a great game into a casual cash grab. Goodbye.
