Based on the feedback on Reddit, the new tiles from the Wakanda event were a huge bust. I gave up on the event, even though I could have used that 4-star Gamor cover.
well I mean we had 3 types of tiles that were supposed to be neutral.
1. Tiles that exploded that did aoe damage to both sides.
These were the most fair tiles, but given that the enemy always starts with full HP while the player needs to use resources to get HP back they don't feel very fair.
2. Tiles that gave you shields but as soon as they ran out converted them all to the enemy.
These were the best tiles even if they weren't super fair. Given a number of people have ways to deal with enemy shields or even use them to your benefit these tiles were fine. Annoying when you couldn't stop them from converting everything to enemy shields, but overall while skewed towards the enemy since it meant a single time of not being able to destroy one meant the enemy was protected it wasn't horrible.
3. Tiles that stole AP from only the player but couldn't be targeted by any ability that targets enemy countdown timers because they were considered neutral.
yeah these were just dumb.
you also have to keep into account that they ticked down on the enemy turn, meaning that any cascades they gave from going off went to the enemy, and that no player powers that used friendly tiles could use them.
I think step one to fix them would be remove the neutral aspect of them, if they come down because of a player match they are enemy tiles, and if they come down due to enemy matches they are player tiles. That would fix things a little, but they still aren't great tiles.
