The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of ads that interrupt gameplay, often appearing after every match. Many players feel that the game employs deceptive tactics, such as fake profiles and paywalls for character upgrades, leading to a frustrating experience that heavily favors those willing to spend money. While some users appreciate the gameplay, the pervasive ads and pay-to-win mechanics detract from overall enjoyment, with many calling for a more balanced approach to monetization.

“Very fun.. because no ads...”
“This game has no ads and it's sooo fun, I recommend for sure”
“They put a nationality's flag and fake profile picture to make you think you're playing someone real, but it's a manipulation to get you to pay money to remove ads or upgrade your character, and it's done in a very sneaky way.”
“Unfair playing field; if you don't spend money or watch a lot of ads, you won't have a good time playing this.”
“This game is trash; they let you win like 2 games then they put bots that have the most broken gear in the game and make you lose so that you have to watch ads or pay real money. This game is a scam.”

The stability of the game is heavily criticized, with numerous users reporting frequent freezes, glitches, and crashes that hinder gameplay, particularly during power-up selections and loading screens. While some players experience smooth gameplay in initial levels, many encounter severe issues in higher arenas, leading to frustration and loss of progress. Overall, the game is described as "buggy" and in need of significant improvements to enhance stability.
“It freezes for so many times on the page of equipping powers, so I can't equip my first power. If you go, the game freezes, plus there is no sound in the whole game. I did turn on and off settings, then after I played a song to check, before then during playing, no sound in the game.”
“Game freezes and exits after long playtime, then I lose my coins from match bets with no reimbursement.”
“Crashes so badly it's incredible. I can be playing a game and it just freezes up and quits me, shutting the app off. This is a serious issue you all need to figure out because it's cost me a bit while playing, and it's very annoying. Figure this out and you can earn a better rating if you care about ratings.”
