3 types dominate the game because of overpowered synergies and too many shared bonuses.

Ocean and mages / Light and summoner / Rangers and Wardens

If you don't build specifically one of those three, youre fucked. RNG doesn't go your way? Youre fucked. This game just becomes a race to see who gets the better RNG and thats it, there is absolutely no chance of you winning with your own team because their bonuses are just too overpowered.

Roll the dice and build one of the three. Theres no strategy involved anymore. You can't just play differently to counter someone elses team, you have to be GIVEN the rng to do so.

Every other iteration of Autochess ive been able to build my own team and have at least some success with it. Never before have I seen a structure funnel so hard into specific comps that it essentially nullifies the point of the game. Im not asking to build random garbage and be winning, im asking to not build JUST one of those three and have a chance at winning.
