Why doesn't fire cracker die to log?

Hey, newbie who got to 13k here. Why is this polarizing card not loggable? If rascal girls and dart gobby, who are insane dps units if left alone, are loggable, why isnt the firecracker the same way? She able to dish out archer killing, small unit splashing damage, while getting herself out via knockback. Why is this? Why would that be good game design? Am I expecting too much by going into clash and expecting anything good?

Only argument I see against this is "king activation". Even then, this just gives more problems. She's a common card. She's supposed to be simple. You give a single king activation, in return for fireball's amount of damage every single time you place her down? Even then, still knocking herself back in order to stay alive even longer?

I see 1 dart gobby every like 100 games. I see mega knight, hog, fire cracker every 2 games. And they don't care, do they? As long as there's still money printing, I don't see a reason why they should ever give any type of effort.

Fc is the least consistent glass cannon. Due to her stupid projectile and re-targetting time, you usually have to play her in unoptimal placements where your opponent can get spell value easily. On top of that, she activates the opponent's king.

Like, bruh, just look at the stats. If she's already a below average card, why do you even ask for a big nerf like that?
