Excessive and intrusive ads, including mandatory ads after every fight and run.
Slow gear progression and difficult advancement without spending real money, making it feel like a cash grab.

Sometimes, at the beginning of a round, a frame will skip, giving the ai a free hit. This only seems to happen after the 5th round, though, so either it's deliberate or a very weird bug. Enemies on the ground will have their animation reset after being hit, instantly standing back up with no downside, this does NOT apply to you though, the ai will relentlessly combo you on the ground, not fair or intuitive. The enemy ai will also instant slam u the frame your attack ends. Imp to counter.

The game is fine. I haven't played for long, but I have noticed one thing that is really pissing me off; the ai. They can literally CANCEL their animation and defend or attack. 1 bot literally kicked my legs. THEN IMMEDIATELY slammed down me IN 1 SECOND. I tried to attack the bot while he was doing his kick animation, AND HE CANCELED IT AND DEFENDED HIMSELF. I get it you want to make the ai hard, but at least make it follow the god damn rules of the game. The ai damage is already outrageous.
