Suprisingly fun! Ofc needs a lot of work and tuning.

Stormgates actually leave a net negative feeling over positive, since they lean win more all the way to auto-win if you get clone(s) and the right timing. Oh you just got your first Dragon/Hellcarrier/Archangel? Duped. x2 or x3 if you held an early one. Can absolutely ruin an otherwise close and satisfying game. Also the existence of the production boost promotes uninteresting cookie cutter base layout and optimization. Aside from that... Brutes still too strong. Shocker. Celestial economy still has a scaling issue. Plus we're back to ardent spamming being objectively the best strategy. Not really sure how they arrived at the idea to power creep a unit then give it more utility. Vanguard still lacks ability to trade. They either win hard or die (usually the latter). At this point I'm convinced they don't have anyone on their team that can play the game at a meaningful level to begin to understand the balance intricacies (or just fun/enjoyment in general) for competitive play. Also have to avoid somebody like David Kim who will do more harm than good, but at the very least be able to filter out the (biased) feedback. The only real positive is change this patch was the removal of top bar and baking it into the Town halls. It just leads to more strategy and build diversity which is ironically the opposite of making the game "more simple" per their reasoning. | ||
