Other units having more utility are exactly why they are better.

Too bad generals aren't fighting a 1v1. If you can't bait the opponent into attacking it over your other units, it's not that effective.

That's a very extreme situation. You can't just knock down an idea like that. Also with the meta being established, the game is already about who is the better "dancer." The way I figured, we buff POW such that units don't get one-shot, but it takes an insane amount of DEF and RES to be a successful dual tank. Force units to build offensively, single-tank counter/rora-ers or just pure offense "ima smash you into the ground" units.

Quote:WTA changing is ok tho.

Thank you thank you! Praise me more! Nyonyonyonyo!

Quote:Then you can use your dark unit to "wall" the anima... or your other 4 units? :|

One unit can't wall. You're just dodging the issue. >_>

That way you only get an advantage when you have WTA, so it's a real triangle where all 3 can be equally good separately.

I'm not going to defend that idea anyway, so destroy it all you want xP

I think it would turn into random rock paper scissors. I dunno. That could be interesting... but battles would have to be fought with more units, not just six, IMO.

Speedy - IX, Emmisary of Apricot Trees Wrote:Aside from that, fielding all of one wpn type will catch up to that player anyway, seeing as that's no full proof matchup. Also facing all monotype units does not mean an auto-loss, your example speaks for mages,but there are more than just mages on the map to begin with.

That's certainly true, but you need to position more units in range. Easier said than done. While they might not have a fullproof matchup (see: against 3 dark users), the fact that they can get such an advantage at all is ridiculous.

In tournaments you can see what units your opponent/s is/are fielding. This is nice because it means weapon triangle control isn't just random, but instead becomes somewhat predictable and somewhat mind-games.

While we're on the issue, I hate dancing so much. There must be a better way to conduct battles.
