It has pretty absurd abilities as a size 1 since as the game moves on, cards have become more and more powerful to keep people interested.

But it's more of a marketing strategy than anything.

Bushiroad keeps giving out overpowered cards that excite players into playing them, giving them more profit, and players still using older decks proceed to get one turn KOed on the second turn.

Now in order to keep up with other fighters, the older players are forced to give up their first decks and buy new cards.

And then those cards get old, and Bushiroad releases even more broken cards, and then people buy those cards, and then those cards get old and so on.

Soon, you'll look at cards like Batzz and think

"Wow, this is such a bad card. Look at that, one gauge cost? Only double attack and can't be destroyed on your turn? Further more, it's Size 2! What a waste of the size limit. And look! His special ability gives triple attack when you're at 4 life? Who's still even playing at that point?!

I know a Size 1 with triple attack that gives you 2 gauge and another card without needing to pay anything, and that's not even one of the good cards!

And look at that stupid impact, Thunder X Lance. There's so many counters to that, and it's so expensive! We already have an impact that lets you win the game when you deal damage once!

God, these old cards are so bad."

I might be exaggerating, but really who expected broken cards like Batz to exist? Immunity to counter destruction, double attack, 2 crits and 7000 power at the price of one gauge with no special conditions. Not only that, but if you fail to end your opponent on the second turn, he's most likely to kill you as Batz will have triple attack.

Normally hyper aggressive decks like this lack good defense, but you got so many god damn shields in dragon world that help you regain life, and people can't destroy Batz anyway with counter destruction spells.

Returning him to hand won't help much either, as Saint Holy Sword Dragon and Dragoroyale will already have double attack procced for Batz's mere existence to the battle phase.

Return him to hand during the main phase? Please, thunder empire have insane resource engines and 1 gauge to call Batz again ain't that expensive.

Now, I wish Frozen Stars was viable, but that's a stall deck, and in the rush meta that we're in, Frozen Stars is just useless.
