Reflections about Soccer Spirits since Dec'16 Major Patch
Ever since the December 2016 starburst major patch, let's look at what Bigball has done.
Feel free to let me know if I missed out anything or written anything wrongly.
History & Facts
Released improved club match individual ranking rewards (500 crystals for 1st place, 400 crystals for 2nd place ... 100 crystals for 5th place)
Next patch, nerfed it to 100 crystals for 1st place, 80 crystals for 2nd place ... 20 crystals for 5th place and 10 crystals for 5th and below.
Next:
Shu and Serestia Buff
Nerf Shu the next patch after people bought him.
Stealth nerf (meaning doing it secretly) Shu while announcing it as a bug fix.
Next:
Nerf Serestia the following patch after shu nerf.
Reason for release and nerf the following patch: Balancing
As we are only writing facts here, we do not debate if the nerf was necessary or not.
What we can see here is the fact where buffing of cards and nerfing them the following patch instead of releasing them after careful testing.
"Oh we don't know they are broken before we release, we have to balance after", after people bought them, yes, balance after
Next:
Yukata Selena (Paid manager)
Advertised to recover 30 ST every 3 hours.
After people bought her, the week after, "Oh sorry, it was a mistake."
Thus, Yukata Selena active was changed to recover 30 ST every 6 hours.
We will be giving you 100k gold and 100 ST for compensation.
Rejoice guys!
Next:
Unannounced 1.2x Mileage Event (12th March 2017, Sunday)
Everyone draws on Saturday for the boosted weekend drop rate.
Bigball releases an unannounced 1.2x mileage event on Sunday.
You already drawn? LOL. Too bad.
Either you buy crystals and draw again or miss out on the 1.2x mileage event.

Other Game Bugs that occured since starburst major patch:
Dupe Bug
Dupe bug, players use DS, littres, ST materials, beelzebubs, log out and log back in and their purchase/superbs on players remain while their DS, littres that were used, are returned to them.
Legend drop rate bug:

Developers' Behavior
From these series of repeated events, it made us question our contributions to this game, whether if it was worthwhile.
People have helped to build the wiki, reddit, update player tier list, stone build list, and written many useful guides for this game.
So much contribution but yet, this is the treatment that we get in return.
There are only 2 words that can describe my feelings towards this game right now.
Utterly Disappointed.
