The answer is *, but simple. people here do not play the game, thats the truth.

it is the same reason zenith is so easy, because people here are all dumb and boring, if you take away whatever the latest meta is that they are 100% dependant on because they cant win of their own merit, they are useless. In zenith where their precious broken characters are taken away from them they dont know what to do, the teams they throw together are awful and they have no idea how to handle the timing of skills. Minato was a $600 recharge on release but now I would estimate over 97% of players have him and I am including the servers 1500+ in that, because it is a cheap and easy way for oasis to placate a community that consists largely of the most uncreative and egotistically fragile nerds the world has ever known. Why fix any problems with the game when they can * the same handful of characters in every event cycle every week and all the useless players will be quiet and happily * their thumbs because they got more free frags towards the only reason they have ever gotten a win, gotta keep that irrelevant and completely undo*ented win/loss ratio high, even at the cost of fun or gameplay evidently

I dont like it, and forget oasis business tactics, the player base are the biggest problem with this game, but it makes sense for oasis to do it.
