Haven't played for too long, thus far there's not many flaws with this game. The interface is smooth, and the controls are quite easy to get a hang of. Making decks is quite easy with the crafting system and how fast one can acquire gems.

The only downsides are: most of the staples being locked at UR rarity, meaning a lot of materials are needed and many of them are must haves.
The game is really overwhelming there's so much the learn from how to unlock the secret packs, which bad cards to scrap to get craft materials, how to build a good deck, and that's before we even get to the gameplay.
The chain resolution is painfully slow.
Not a serious downside, but the default Rescue Rabbit is already the best Deckmaster, leaving players with little incentive to get anyone else.

We'll see how the game feels when the initial gems dry up and new cards and aggressive banlists force deck rotations.

So far, it's definitely worth a try.

The concluding expansion pack to the now classic Dawn of War 1 RTS game.

Soulstorm is considered by many to be an inferior expansion to Dark Crusade due to it's recycled and overly lengthy campaign, the failure to bring Tyranids into the game and many gamebreaking exploits when the game was first released.

Still, most of those issues are now fixed and Soulstorm is definitely the most balanced version of Dawn of War. Where Dark Crusade have both Necrons and Tau being very overpowered at every stage of the game and the cheaper teching costs allowed races such as Chaos Marines to fast tech to T3 and overwhelm opponents with elite units, Soulstorm has none of those issues and while the balance is not perfect, each race all have highlights.

With Dawn of War 2 being very different and 3 being a disaster, Soulstorm now stands as the most popular game in Dawn of War. Any fan of RTS should check it out.

While this game is very different to the IRL card game it does a good job adapting it for a more fast paced mobile audience.

This game has been through a period where the meta was moving too quick and combined with things locked behind paywalls (something that persists to this day) and blatant gems nerfs, was losing a lot of players. Some of those changes have been reverted and the metagame no longer powercreeps decks as fast.

Pros:
Low barrier of entry: This game is easy to get into both in terms of gameplay and building a collection, most of the old cards are useless so one only need to invest in newer boxes to have a top tier deck.
Front loading: Most F2P gems are in characters which with a bit of grinding a new player can build gems income really fast and acquire the cards they need.
Deep gameplay: While it's easy to get into, there is a lot of decision making and depths if you choose to play certain decks that is really rewarding.
Guarantee system: Since you see the content of the box as you pull packs, you'll get everything in the box once you open all the packs, meaning there is an upper limit even if you run out of luck.

Cons:
Paywalling: Structure decks cards are paywalled as one can only purchase 1 with gems, so second copies means you have to cough up money to get them. There are also Selection box cards that are both timewalled and paywalled.
Low sustained gem income: Most of your gems will be from leveling characters so once you have maxed them out you'll suffer drought.
Rapid release schedule: roughly 20-30 days between each box so it's really hard to keep up unless you start to skip multiple boxes.

I'm on the fence about recommending this game. It's not the worst gacha game, but it is heavy in grind and in terms of pay to win aspects. If you're a massive Yu Gi Oh fan it's definitely a fresh take on dueling, but if you have better games to play this isn't hard to skip.

Brutally fun game... but mostly brutal.
