All that Sinraptor needs to be balanced is have its speed crit %/damage significantly nerfed and have its on escape ability nerfed/changed as well. Sinraptor absolutely dominates in tournaments as it outspeeds the entire roster. There’s basically zero counterplay to it unless you have priority, but if you don’t it’s simply a game over from there.

A long time ago I would have agreed with a nerf but no longer. Sinrap is old news. It's the newest creatures that oppress in this game. Nerfing old creatures just feeds into the money grab model of this game (nerf the old creatures that everyone has invested in so that we are forced to work [and spend] on the newest).
Priority moves are extremely common on newer creatures. Lots of counters out there now. Some other counter options include setting yourself up with dodge or speed increase prior to it coming in.
Leave these old creatures alone and lets deal with the really broken creatures atm. Instead of nerfing one of the few good options that can actually counter these new monstrosities. Asking for this just at this point of the game just makes things worse.

Or we could nerf everything so it's fair 🔥

twilit marlin

#

Then nerf legendaries as well 🔥

#

What I meant was nerf the Apexes to be closer to each other in power

twilit marlin
#

specific apex’s fit specific roles

#

you would expect a cunning apex to be countered by a resilient one yes?

gaunt flare
#

I didn't say anything about roles 💀

twilit marlin
#

what would be a reason to nerf every apex?

#

it would just be a unique

gaunt flare
#

Not literally

#

Stuff like Ceramagnus, Mortem Rex, etc definitely need buffs

twilit marlin
#

so buff some apex’s to define a new meta but also nerf everything in the old meta because having a meta is bad

#

did i get that correct?

gaunt flare
#

What? 💀

#

Nah, I'm not doing this

#

Arguing about this is pointless

twilit marlin
#

i’ll ask a simple question really quick

#

how many “meta” creatures do you have in your team

gaunt flare
#

4 meta and 4 non meta

twilit marlin
#

let me see your team

gaunt flare
#

Debatable if Cloch, Smet and Indoc are considered meta

twilit marlin
#

using 3 maxed meta apex’s and still more maxed tyrant tier apex’s but wanting to nerf them is pretty contradicting

gaunt flare
#

I'm using them but I still want them to be nerf

twilit marlin
#

nerfing something to fit in line with everything else isn’t the way a game should work cus then there would be no point in going to collect more if everything is the same

gaunt flare
#

I'm saying they should be closer to each other in power

twilit marlin
#

again that defeats the point of collecting

gaunt flare
#

The gap between Gryg and Alanky compared to Mortem and Cera is diabolical

twilit marlin
gaunt flare
#

Yes there would

twilit marlin
#

your comparing something that is relatively easy to get to a dinosaur which would take a month of grinding

gaunt flare
#

If they are close in power but fill different roles then people can choose who to put on their team

twilit marlin
#

if gry and mortem were close in power they would be basically the same creature

#

they both fill the role of a really strong fierce

#

hence why one would need to be stronger than the other or it would just become stale

gaunt flare
#

It's lame the way it is right now

twilit marlin
#

how so?

#

people using more meta dinos that you is lame?

#

then just make the hybrids

#

nerfing something and buffing something else is a very lazy way to reach upper ranks

gaunt flare
twilit marlin
#

it’s just called being lazy

#

if you want to reach the top you grind for it

#

if you don’t then you’ll settle at the rank your in

gaunt flare
#

So what you're saying is "lets screw the people who uses their favourite creatures and force them to collect specific ones if they want to rank up"

twilit marlin
#

if you want to use your favorite creatures then that’s fine

#

but don’t expect apatosaurus to compete with alanky lol

#

it’s really that simple

gaunt flare
#

I'm saying Apexes should be closer to each other in power

#

Not Common vs Apex

#

And not exactly the same, just close

twilit marlin
#

would you buff hadros lux to be around the same level as alanky?

#

would you buff imperato to be as strong as gry?

gaunt flare
#

I'm fine with Hadros being worse than Proto

#

But there shouldn't be a huge gap

twilit marlin
#

would you nerf raja to hydraboa level?

gaunt flare
#

I mean

#

I would love for that to happend

twilit marlin
#

and that would achieve what exactly?

gaunt flare
#

So people wouldn't get punish for using their favorite creatures

#

I can make meta Apexes to rank up

twilit marlin
#

no. what it would achieve would be using an apex you can spend what a couple months at the very least grinding raids for and making apex hybrids which you need a bunch of dna for and would take even longer

gaunt flare
#

But I don't want to, I would rather use my favorites

twilit marlin
#

then again don’t expect them to win you battles

#

if you want to use your favorites and win then there’s always the option of strike events

gaunt flare
#

I said it before, not exactly the same in power

twilit marlin
gaunt flare
#

Wydm the issue doesn't exist 💀

twilit marlin
#

complaining about not being able to use ceramagnus in nublar shores is insane

gaunt flare
#

When did I complain about not being able to use Cera in Shores?

twilit marlin
#

i could say “the game is bad because imperata is my favorite creature and it doesn’t come close to gry”

twilit marlin
gaunt flare
#

No?

twilit marlin
#

you use meta creatures in shores

#

or else you fall down the ranks

#

if you refuse to get good at a game simply because you want to use something the community views as bad then that’s on you

gaunt flare
#

I'm not even complaining about my rank 💀

twilit marlin
#

you can’t expect the devs to buff everything just to make it comparable to another

twilit marlin
gaunt flare
#

So wanting some of the weaker creatures (that I don't even use) to be buff so they're somewhat usable while nerfing the ones that are meta for a long time is bias?

#

Seems about right

deep jolt
#

Things will objectively suck

#

That's just how the game is

#

I ran quetzorion for like 5 years, it sucks but I ran it

winged osprey
#

Parasauthops should be useable in shores

I'd love a buff

#

But hey at least it got an apex

winged osprey
#

Anyways this thread went way off topic, let's get back on the topic

twilit marlin
#

sinraptor is fine

#

it dominates in tournaments along with most omegas

deep jolt
#

Sinraptor is

#

Situationally good

#

(It just so happens that situation happens like 90% of the time)
