All CEO's are going to take from this is they need to use popular IP's to make their low effort trash.
I was going to say "Marvel License".
If it were just 33 generic characters, or 33 comic book characters nobody ever heard of (Astro City anyone? Anyone?) it would have tanked just like Concord.
But, at the same time, it CAN'T JUST be the license. It's also free to play.
Look at Marvel Midnight Suns, which wasn't F2P, had the license, from what I'm TOLD was a decent game, but didn't go anywhere:

It's an amazing game.
The cards were a great way to handle combat, it was just a lot of new ideas, and the story parts slowed it down. If running around the abbey was something that could be turned off as an option and everything handled on a menu splash screen it would have done even better.
The cards were unique, but not at all what I wanted. Rivals abilities are what I was looking for in that game, but I know it's just a different genre.
