What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Progression is satisfying, unless you blink, because then three new banners, 2 meta shifts, and one character the can delete you from existence in 0.7 seconds (Kizaru).
And the thing is the format could be very fun - short small batch PvP matches which have very clear goals with a line up of interesting characters and powers to leverage - but the fact that the "matchmaking" is so bad I have to keep putting it in quotes because there's nothing actually matching about it ruins the experience and shuts down new players very early in, forcing them to either spend crazy amounts for very low chances of pulling the units which would actually help them to be competitive, be faced with the very really possibility that on average they will win *MAYBE* 1 in 10 matches because of how unfair and unbalanced "matchmaking" is, or give up and drop this game entirely to spare themselves the frustration of being treated like sacrifices to whale players.
The pseudo-retro 3D graphics are fine and nostalgic, but nothing really spectacular.
While the start of the game is relatively generous and fun, and doing some of the character progression events is a nice dopamine hit, it quickly turns into a nightmare of constantly facing teams that have 70,000 combat power higher than you from other tiers, laggy servers, and broken characters that if you didn't summon them, you might as well take a break from the game for the season (or just quit).
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 3 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
