Remove (or change) Cursed Blade from the game.

Cursed Blade is a flawed design. It defeats the entire point of spending your earned gold on upgrades when a simple item like that can reduce my 3 star unit to lower star. You are basically rewarding the player for finding bow and cloak. Meanwhile I upgrade two units to 3 star, thinking that I am ahead and could start winning fights, instead I lose to a much worse team, only because my 3 star unit is now lower star.

A lot of people have been complaining about this, me personally I would like the item to never exist.

I agree that the current version of the item is disgustingly obnoxious, I would like it to be changed to apply a stacking debuff like -10% armor and - 10% magic resist on hit and up to a maximum of -70%.

No, it is fine as it is. A necessary equalizer especially if the RNG is being particularly unreasonable where you have a tier 2's with some tier 1's vs someone with has 2 or 3 tier 3's in their line up.

If you complain out this, you would have to argue against the Rapid Firecannon because it counters the Yordle Origin perk and Shen's special ability for dodging.

Add in Redemption and Zephyr, they are arguably the most strategic items in TFT.

Huh?

Cursed blade affects every class and origin equally. How does that compare to RFC nullifying yordles?

It does not equalize. It gives an advantage. You act like the only player that gets cursed blade is the one behind or like it is ONLY effective when the enemy has 3star units. The item is ALWAYS effective, even if the enemy only has 1star units.

It is actually far from being an equalizer, it unbalances the game extremly.

Rapid fire is op aswell for the reasons you stated btw. But not as aburdly as cursed blade.
