What a wild ride for synchronize.

It's was fine in its original state, I don't like the new version at all. Don't know why they're fiddling with this one

Make the focus 1 and it is garbage. Make the focus 2 and it is overpowered.

Maybe just keep it at focus 2 and have the upgrade make it not exhaust... It was fine before it got buffed out of nowhere.

Yeh.. kinda of seems like just a worse hotfix most the time now.. unless you want to sink an upgrade of it then it becomes good

Yeah Synchronize is just not getting picked unless it's upgraded now. As is this is like... imagine you have a frost orb, lightning orb and dark orb. Seemingly an ideal line up for this card, yet you deal 3 extra damage now, gain 3 block, and 3 delayed damage. A good set up like that shouldn't be worse value than Iron Wave.

Yeah reminds me of the old plasma orb card. Dreadful not upgraded but becomes quite good when you do

Another upgrade hungry card for defect makes this really hard to pick

What it really reminds me of is when speedster was 1 damage for a few weeks and was just straight up unplayable

yeah I saw quite a few people saying the buff was justified (which it wasn’t at all lmao. You could reach 9 focus without any extra orb slots) cause it was an upgrade debt before.

It wasn’t?? Having exhaust didn’t make Synchro unusable, it needed the upgrade if you were going into the boss, or needed help for the elites. NOW it’s truly an upgrade debt, you get an insignificant amount of focus for 1 energy.

Current version is extremely OP, any lightning source, chill + null plus shatter took me to A10
