I would have to say that all the countering cards that are out to me are the most annoying cards out there. Yes all of monsters are annoying to but there's a counter card from ever thing now in days. It's no more free anything you can do like a free syc. Aswell as Steel Rouch is a pain and easy xyz with to much power.
Like them or not, these "Counter Cards" are what keep the balance in the game.
What if there was no cards like Torrential Tribute or Dark Hole? People would overextend like crazy because there's nothing to fear, they would summon like there's no tomorrow because the opponent would have no answers to them. Torrential Tribute isn't a Counter Trap card and Dark Hole is a spell, but the example gives an idea of what I'm saying.
Same if we didn't have Heavy Storm like in the past. The game would be all about setting as much backrow as you can and not let your opponent do anything after your turn. Games would be decided by who went first essentially.
We'll can call these counter cards a necessary evil. Trust me, the game would be irreparable if you didn't have things to stop your opponent.
And Steelswarm Roach.. It's actually low powered for a Rank 4 xyz. The effect is good, but 1900 attack is low for a Rank 4. My guess is that you don't play Xyzs often? Most people moved on to them and because Xyzs have Ranks and not levels Steelswarm Roach is not considered a problem card by Konami and the majority of the player base.
But I can understand where you're coming from. It can be annoying to get your cards negated so easily without having to pay a cost or giving up card advantage.
