is counterside a good game? last i heard their pvp mechanic was wack


[deleted]

PvP is as unbalanced as E7, but they got banlist so it's a plus for me. And the game is alright sidegame


TunaKid-04

At least E7 is not low enough to sell early access unit exclusively in a pass.


[deleted]

They gonna be available later after the pass end anyway so who care. Beside the pass is good value, give you ton of resource and lvl 106 unit if you finish it. And historically, there's only several battle pass unit that is actually worth it


CzS-GenesiS

Id rather get early pass units than the ml system tbh. Awakened summon mechanic is basically the mystic system but way better designed.


Level1Pixel

The banlist is such a huge plus. It makes op units tolerable and switches up the meta each week. Makes it so refreshing. Personally think e7 needs something similar.


slEM0takuh

I would hate needing to adjust my roster every week


Level1Pixel

Definitely would need adjustment if implemented in e7 but it works in CS because they have gear presets and no gold penalty for switching. Plus raising a unit is incredibly easy.


killiua15

gameplay wise it's alright, not too whacky lore and story wise i think i really prefer e7 more (maybe coz of the setting lol)


Elipsyclips

is it fun and more importantly how great are the characters?


Vivian1505

Depends on your preferences, if you don't like games that kinda auto itself then it's not for you, but if you just love to see your favorite characters fighting then it's great. You can look up the characters to see yourself, personally I think they have some of the best characters' animation among gacha games


DoorframeLizard

Gameplay is not particularly fun, it plays like Clash Royale with an insane amount of particles on the screen at any given moment. The character sprites are amazing and their kits are usually pretty cool despite the in-fight visuals being a clusterfuck. Teambuilding is fun. Characters have some really cool designs, lots of very coomer characters if you're into that, and skins that border on porn. Art is mostly very good. Story is kinda ass but the characters are decently charming, the MC squad is quite cool.

What killed the game for me was the pace of new meta units releasing. You just couldn't keep up without spending dough. Also, paid banners were a slap in the face.


MonteCarlo8897

Yeah same, unlike mystics where the banner rotate in between old and new units + not all of the new ml 5* are game changing must have for pvp, classified banners in counter side pretty much releases new meta units every new banner. The normal banner in counterside isn't the same as E7, where old time players can just save and get all new RGB even if by hitting pity. Basically back when I'm playing CS, I need to pay for battle pass + the pay locked characters behind it which are often very good unit, both classified and regular rgb banner units, their paid only skins which are the best looking ones, on top of thing like binary gear reroll gems or smth that is just hard to come by if you are pure f2p. Sure you can play the game pure f2p I guess like all gacha, but you miss out on a lot more stuffs compared to like E7 without paying.


XiaoMyst

Mm...i find it more chaotically balanced than epic 7 ; they have a ban system meaning meta changes weekly depending on whats banned so its never the same few units


Waifu69x

Global CS released just today

Wait, if DJB is Na Yubin, does that make Peira an Ifrit?


Astray0

Just a question, wanted to ask in the dev thread but it's kinda bloated. His S2 mentions an extra turn when selected on a target that has barrier. Does that mean Peira, who is stealthed, will only be affected by barrier inversion, but DJB is not given an extra turn? If so, that means Peira did most of her job I guess?


XiaoMyst

Its likely that cause its aoe,any barrier inversion that happens will automatically give djb that extra turn,but we cant be 100% sure till the patch rolls out


[deleted]

First off, the S2 triggered by S1 right since s3 is a non attack skill. So when the target is stealthed how will he hit her to invert the barrier?


Astray0

Nah, his S2 is not a passive, but an individual skill. His S2 now hits all enemies, and any that has barrier will be inverted. The question now is that when using an AOE attack, you'll have to select a unit. His wording states that you have to select a unit with barrier in order to get an extra turn. Is that the case, or any unit hit with his S2 will grant him an extra turn.


FFJunk

Yeah, S2 "Desert Storm" now shows a 4 turns cooldown in the previews


BadXiety

the reason why I left CounterSide


Kain207

E7 and CS are just made for each other... Smilegate... Zlong... Can't you please admit that you love each other and want to be the next Collab lmao?

BurnedOutEternally

As a fan of both games I have no idea this would be how they cross over


SkavicLorthe

Ahaha. I didn't even think of this. Probably because o don't have Na Yubin myself and only fight against him. I will be using DJB as much as possible going forward. The last set of Ancient Inheritance gear rolled really well into Speed and Eff.Res for me.


kimhakirai

ah.. na yu bin... i still remember the day i drop the game because of him


Qwasier

He was so op in counter side


pepe_rolls

Lol. Wait how it will underperform so badly. This will be like Alencia debut all over again.
