Ratings and reviews

I was having fun playing online, although it was a little glitch at times, but now I can't log in. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it still won't work. Also, this is more of a personal thing, but the art style of the avatars is kinda goofy, I wish it was more like the art style in the mainline games. Edit: Was finally able to sign in, I just left it open after trying for a long time and it worked eventually. Still really buggy, but not 1 star bad.

It's fun but needs a system to where it matches up people with the same ladder rank instead of getting demolished by someone who's been playing a long time vs a new beginner. It's hard to find interest after losing a bunch. I've only won 2 matches out of like the 13 I played. For it being a "Trading Card Game" I would like to see a "Trade" mechanic implemented into the game so that people who may Not particularly be good/interested in battling can still have fun collecting the virtual cards!

Had to uninstall after over a week of at least 75% of my games running frustratingly slow or crashing altogether. My ladder progress was negatively affected by how many times I "lost" due to poor app performance. Since playing exclusively on desktop, I've gone from bottom of Great Ball League to almost the top in only a dozen or so hours of gameplay.
