Being confused with my tabs for second, I thought this was a topic about the Japanese Fighting Games player. I was going to post a snarky "Ikr! Japan, nerf pls"
It is.
Especially this part.
EDIT: I mean, you could at least explain why you think so, so we have something to discuss.
Carnival mode had come when the team needed something to win a fight because they couldn't win, which is fine, but the following episodes have had plot focus about the team getting it's arse kicked, a new villain whose incredibly powerful and Torin 'backstabbing' them (and being completely lost). I think it's just because those episodes happened one after another that people seem to be noticing it. I'd like to think it'll just sort itself out in the next couple of episodes.
Daigo's not really any different than the regular Red who is the only one to get a power up on the team, but it's been a few years since we've had one that some fans seem to have forgotten or not even seen those shows.

I think this applies to me the most since I'm relatively new to sentai. Also maybe the point you made about the episodes of them focusing on getting beaten up or being backstabbed or Daigo becoming powered up may be the reason why I feel he is too overpowered.
But that is an odd trend that the dinosaur themed sentai had Red power up, did abaranger have this problem with Red as well or was it resolved?
Yep. The last one with an actual red-only upgrade was I think Deka (which was movie only). Shinkenger had 2 upgrades which Red used exclusively unless he was feeling particularly generous. While Gekiranger's pseudo-ending was basically "Only Red can defeat Rio because the only way you can get the Body is by being born with it. You can obtain the Heart and Technique later."
Of the recent Sentai, only Go-busters didn't have a particularly extra emphasis on Red, but practically every Sentai has that red emphasis.
KyoryuGold was in the episode just to be defeated by Dogold. Ian was knocked to the ground even faster. Then Daigo goes Carnival and keeps up with him, even if he doesn't beat him. Comes monster time, the only thing that other members of the team did was getting beaten up and giving their batteries to Daigo.
And this episode's plot wasn't even supposed to be about Daigo. It focused on Amy and Souji, and yet he mostly took over during the battle.
Gokiager and Zyuranger had a heavier emphasis on red rather than the whole team
SO I guess its a problem with sentai in general that Red is overemphasised
EDIT: Any of you guys have an idea why its like this? Or hell how to fix it
Your point is that Daigo and Carnival shouldn't have taken over for the fight scene. Then the opponent they're facing should've been a MotW, because given what happened to Dogold in the last episode, it would have been really contrived for the Kyoryuugers to be able to even stand against him without any leverage. But then, people would've criticize the episode for not continuing the ongoing plot ie Dogold taking over Endolf and becoming exponentially stronger.
