It’s getting ridiculous at this point , the numbers keep going up and up every single update at an alarming peace. Nothing that released just one .0 update ago is considered meta anymore 😭. I want to get more use out of units that I might like but aren’t the best just 1 update later because new ones that do the same thing but better came out.

to be fair the new units are just doing unnecessary dmg rn

#

hopefully we stay at this lvl for a whilee

#

why do you think thats wrong mister

drifting loom
#

VSJW is still top 3 after 4 months btw

quasi hedge
#

because the highest dps you can get doubled in 1 update

#

it’s not normal

quasi hedge
#

next update he’ll leave the broken tier

drifting loom
quasi hedge
#

if it keeps going on this way

drifting loom
#

kaguya is a support

quasi hedge
#

in 2 updates the top meta will change completely

quasi hedge
drifting loom
#

griffith is not good just because of his damage, he self upgrades and also supports

limber pendant
#

what do you mean

quasi hedge
#

again not broken

limber pendant
#

can u tell us who is op this update

#

guts isnt op

quasi hedge
#

griffith is not broken

limber pendant
#

he's way worse than we though

quasi hedge
#

you can’t use shit while he’s doing his thing

drifting loom
#

if hes not that op why are you complaining about powercreep Sob4k

quasi hedge
drifting loom
#

crazy concept

quasi hedge
#

now it’s 400k

#

in 3 updates it will be 1.2 m ?

limber pendant
limber pendant
#

who is doing 400k dps

quasi hedge
#

jinmori ? escanor ?

limber pendant
#

even with all clones

#

escanor cant do 400k

quasi hedge
#

he does

limber pendant
#

show proof

#

you cant show proof?

#

shut up then

drifting loom
#

you just keep thinking about damage but thats not the only thing that make units so good Sob4k

limber pendant
#

you cant even tell us who else is op this update

#

complaining about power creep but not saying who is causing this

#

Guts can't be on the list because the follow up attacks lowk ruins him

drifting loom
#

escanor and jin mori do not throw sjw and kaguya away

#

and theyre several months old

#

sjw being 4 months old like i said

#

but he has insanely good abilities

#

escanor is just dmg

quasi hedge
drifting loom
#

jin mori is just dmg

quasi hedge
#

someone else did the math

limber pendant
#

6.18X

quasi hedge
limber pendant
#

yo i hope you know jin mori isnt op

#

he just a dps machine

#

very easy to replace him or clone him

#

also

drifting loom
#

"why do they add new units that do alot of damage"

quasi hedge
# limber pendant 6.18X

any problem there ? as i said lat update with all the buffs most you could get was 150-170k

limber pendant
#

he has no use

drifting loom
#

what are we talking abt rn

quasi hedge
#

about damage power creep ? 🥀

#

are you alright

drifting loom
limber pendant
#

and he's using supports

quasi hedge
#

do you read my messages ?

limber pendant
#

ur not even using any of those in a

#

casual gaemmode

#

so why is he uh

quasi hedge
#

last update

limber pendant
#

complaining when nobody ir unning that loadout

drifting loom
quasi hedge
#

with all the supports

drifting loom
#

U CANT USE THAT TEAM AT ALL Sob4k

quasi hedge
#

most you could get was half

limber pendant
#

oh yeah you can't even use jin mori in lb runs either

#

because u cant sell him

#

making him pointless to bring

#

he been out for a month and he hasnt been used for a tourney yet

#

not even one tourney

#

despite being a dps machine he's just another mvp unit

#

please stop looking at big damage numbers thinkign its power creep

quasi hedge
#

bringing up tournaments like everyone does that

limber pendant
#

apart from being mvp meta

#

nothing else

quasi hedge
#

yeah no point in arguing with you

#

you don’t get it

#

we’ll see in 2 ypdates

limber pendant
#

same guy who think someone is going bring aot team + two buffs to take jin mori to 400k+ dps

quasi hedge
#

when everything will do 1 billion dps

limber pendant
#

what a loser

drifting loom
#

"durrr so much powercreep!"

quasi hedge
#

it is

drifting loom
#

yhwach is still at the top of the meta after nearly half a year by the way

quasi hedge
#

because he is used in tournaments and that’s about it

#

you need a team just for him to work

#

1 farm 4 rares and that guy

drifting loom
#

but youre gonna call that powercreep

quasi hedge
#

still does 120k dps

#

even with allat

drifting loom
#

ok?

quasi hedge
#

ok what

drifting loom
#

as in

#

so what

quasi hedge
#

he was beyond broken from release ofc he would be good even to this day

#

proving my power creep point

#

besides you like to see it when 3/4 of the “broken” units are vanguards

drifting loom
modest oak
#

Idk but i feel like 1m is a nice number

#

Some units recently get to that dmg

#

I hope we dont get to the billions...

#

the power creep really only exists within Rifts when you are going for mvp or leaderboards. You can clear almost all content in the game with outdated units

left shale
#

why do people keep thinking

#

you need rares for yhwach to do good damage

quasi hedge
#

well you certainly can’t use monarchs and you won’t get the most out of him is you’re using 3 placement units

#

at that point i’d rather use a newer unit that does more damage , sure he is able to clear most of the game by itself with using a lot of rares

#

but it would be faster to use something that does more damage

quasi hedge

I was looking for the troll usopp suggestion and this caught my eye

limber pendant

sick ingot
#

Nothing that released in 7.0 was considered meta dps wise ever

#

If anything rumbling is dominating tourneys

#

Griff and guts are meta what else is "way too broken"

#

Both units have clear downsides especially griffith

dense vine
#

why dont we just back to the dandadan days where everything was shit

dusk tree
#

Bro the power creep isn’t bad

#

Or perhaps u guys like the over complicated passives and stipulations for the units to be good

quasi hedge
sick ingot
#

Has it gotten to that pointidiot

#

People wanted powercreep instead of overly convoluted passives

#

They got it

#

Powercreep isnt even that much, the top 3 has remained unchanged.

#

Top 4 even.

quasi hedge
#

no , not yet at least

#

that s why i am saying it needs to slow down

#

because as it is looking rn it will happen

#

i think 0.5 update units shouldn t be significantly better than the .0 update units , that way the meta slightly shifts every .0 update

prisma saddle
#

there’s practically barely any powercreep in av tho lol

#

I will say yes there is powercreep in this update specifically tho

prisma saddle
#

but yeah the powercreep isn’t bad at all lmao we aren’t anime last stand

dusk tree
#

Real

drowsy warren
#

thats lowkey whats happening

#

usually

#

but 7.5 only had a big creep because 7.0 had none

#

it was just compensation for 7.0

quasi hedge
#

7.0 had the rumbling which if not banned in tournaments it will always be used

quasi hedge
#

btw using the smith and griffith only jinmori can get 500k dps constantly and 620k dps by selling the original copy

#

with monarch ofc

drowsy warren
#

which abrely anyone plays

#

other than that its

#

useless

#

and since the banning feature works now

#

it only works every other week

limber pendant
#

are you saying nobody in the community does tourney?

#

or that it's not a popular gamemode?

#

i mean the amount views cc get for just showing tourney videos proves it's extremely popular

limber pendant
#

and with the new skins added to it, it's evne more comp

drowsy warren
#

so wait wait

#

you're sayin

limber pendant
#

100k?

#

game dont even have 100k

drowsy warren
#

7.0 added

#

good units

limber pendant
#

okay wait let's say this

#

you and i don't have no proof

#

so therefore you and i are both wrong

drowsy warren
#

acctuall

#

y

#

lets use

#

your

#

idea

drowsy warren
#

13% play giving the benefit of the doubt that nobody rewatched the video

#

or nobody saw the loadout

#

and just dipped like me

#

also

#

is it erally good for a .0 update just to be a tournament meta update

limber pendant
#

it's important to listen

drowsy warren
limber pendant
#

previous tourney already proves that

drowsy warren
#

not

#

suporting your idea

#

its literally against your idea saying that

#

which is why i didnt metnion it

limber pendant
#

because they gave up??

#

ngl wtv you won

#

dont got time for this

long wing
#

Yall wanted powercreep and said units were not getting better and now yall don’t want powercreep

#

Make it make sense

quasi hedge
#

powercreep is good once every like 2 major updates

#

so the meta gets somewhat flushed out

#

if the units do significantly more damage each update

mint acorn
#

My monarch tengen can’t keep up with these number no more

quasi hedge
#

then the game just gets tiring to play

#

i mean from the current meta and broken units (excluding vanguards) 3 units are more than 2 updates old

#

and i am pretty sure byeken is still meta because it s broken for pvp

quasi hedge
# drowsy warren a gamemode

the mode is supposed to reward strategy more than the other gamemodes, but the best tactic is just using rumbling. that s the reason they fucking banned it for this week and probably from now forward

quasi hedge
#

in 1 update it won t be broken anymore unless they buff it somehow which was confirmed won t happen

drifting loom
#

why am i being pinged for things i said 4 days ago

quasi hedge
#

i forgot about the thread and i just looked thru it now

drifting loom
magic lark
#

ywach and vsjw are both meta after months btw

drowsy warren
#

which is why that update

#

was shit

#

and thats why 7.5 had a good

#

power creep

#

cause it made up for 7.0s

#

lack there of

quasi hedge
#

power creep 2 updates in a row is not it

drowsy warren
#

1 fails to power creep

stone juniper
drowsy warren
#

Every .0 should show a decent wmoint of power creep

stone juniper
#

like

#

av doesnt make units strong enough

#

people complain

#

av makes units insane

#

people complain

drowsy warren
#

Update 7 failed

stone juniper
#

😭

drowsy warren
#

So update 7.5 made up for it

stone juniper
#

yeah

drowsy warren
#

And update 8 just did what its supose to

#

As a .0

stone juniper
#

huge factor of upd 7 performance was that the units were lackluster
