Battle Legion - Mass Battler 12+

The base game, I absolutely adore. The freedom of placing your units wherever gives rise to a lot of strategies That feel free form. I’m currently ranked around 2400 which I assume is decently high since every enemy I find has units sometimes leveled up twice the level of mine. I was able to get pretty high decently fast despite this, but I feel like I’m at a point where it’s just ridiculous. I feel as thought there isn’t as many ways for a Free to play like me to really compete at this point, unless you want to watch 3 ads every 12 or so hours. And this doesn’t event guarantee making your armies stronger. The variety of units is amazing but the fact you have to level them up so high to even be viable really just discourages or makes it impossible to try some strategies. The fact that there are so many units to choose from also becomes a bit of a hassle at higher ranks since the pool of units is higher, it means you’ll have less chances getting the units you want. TL;DR: the base game is amazing until a certain point. Now I feel like I can’t progress despite having better overall strategies.

Thanks for your review and honest feedback. Yes, advancing with good tactics and unit choice can lead to a situation where it is hard to advance purely because your opponents have higher leveled units. In these cases, you will have to either shake things up with a new tactic or simply open those Wagons and request the Shards you need from fellow Clan members. Do join our Discord from the Settings menu, if you haven't already. There, you will find fellow Commanders are ready and eager to give you good advice on getting your army back on track.

I would like to say that, although you can pay to play it’s definitely not a game where you need to pay to compete with the good players. I like the review up right now that says this is a grossly pay to play game but them complains by paying he’s not getting enough reward. Lol. Well there you have it. You don’t just drop $200 and get to the top. I’ve been playing about 2 months now and have made it to the top level. I have bought two season passes, which I enjoy, because of the extra skins and just some extra goodies. It’s also a good game that I don’t mind supporting a little bit. Great job to the developers. I hope you continue on this great path. And for those wondering, the amount of loot in the chests scales up as you level up. It did seem like they were a little light about mid game but with a clan that can donate cards, it’s not hard to continue your path up the ranks. Definitely a game you should try out!

Fantastic to read you comments and spot on analysis. There is indeed no need to spend a money to achieve the top ranks. Oh, and hold on to your hat, as we are launching a new feature next week! Take care and have fun playing Battle Legion!

The biggest issue with this game is that match opponents are completely random when it comes to the level of your units you are actually fighting with. Yes, it matches you with people with a similar *overall experience level*, but every unit on the field has its own level. Whether you win or lose is mostly determined by the average level of units on your field vs. your opponent’s field (you can see your opponent’s average level before the match starts). That is the biggest factor in determining a win, and there is no rhyme or reason for that matching. That means your only strategy is to highly level up one unit, and always use it. Or you lose. That becomes boring quickly - and expensive. And that’s not to mention how pricey everything is -most purchases are $50 or more, many are $84 to upgrade a unit a bit.

Edit: for fans of American football or those that have played football video games, this is exactly like calling plays… except that *any* team in *any* formation may appear in front of you when the play starts. There is no guiding information, hint, or filtering at all that allows you to put any strategy together. So the best you can do is disproportionately level up a key player or two.

Thanks for your review! There is actually rhyme and reason, and it is called the meta. At any point along the ratings, you will encounter general tactics used by the majority of players, this is called the meta. It will change as you progress and it will require experience to see the shifts and you will need to make adjustments as the meta shifts. One layout or tactic will not work for very long when you are advancing. Like any other mobile game, purchases will move you along a little faster, but the effect of purchases will not be felt if you do not make alterations based on the meta. Purchases are in no way mandatory and this is proven by the fact that there are numerous none paying players in the highest ranks. Thanks again and hope you have fun playing in any case.
