Right now it's a game not worth buying.
Gameplay is great, but it's lacking on every other department, specially content, it's lacking a lot.
If you enjoy playing online, forget about it, people here don't like having fun, they rather abuse the completely unbalanced meta, building players that only focus on power, using the most broken character ever (Sharapova) and mindlessly doing power shots every single time, don't even need to try to win.
Oh, but you have friends to play online and actually have fun? Too bad you can't actually play with them as there's no private games or inviting friends.

And we are talking about a 2K game, so I'd bet that at least the balance won't ever change.
