They need more health, and are kinda useless compared to normal miners

shut ermine
#

ok how about 1000

true heart
#

Nah, somewhere in the middle like 800

I mean I don't really see the point in them with these stats, sounds like way to much of an investment for a slightly better miner with more health and more carry capacity.

#

But if that 300 carry capacity logic also carried over to crystal and they could bring in 150 crystal at the same rate miners mine, mabey, but still to expensive to really make it a worth while investment or to have in your deck In general.

I think a miner general would be better than a miner giant.

I don’t know tbh, wouldn’t this look a little goofy and unnatural. It does seem like a cool idea, making attackers think twice before committing to your base.

#

why not buy 3 miners and a couple archers to defend🙏

obtuse granite
#

Let's be honest though, the mining animation would look kinda funny, I'm imagining them squating down and trying to clumsily use a normal sized pick axe lol.

hoary shell
#

Well, the giant trains in only 20 seconds. And it'll get you 300 gold per what—around 6-8 seconds.

#

But the cost is a bit high for what is only a miner without much damage or health. It takes quite a bit of population as well.

obtuse granite
#

The cost though. You would have to invest way to much economy into this when your enemy will have used that same economy to build an early game army to wreck you.

#

Agreed.

hoary shell
#

Yeah, if this was all optimized a bit better, I'd consider using a miner giant in my miner build.

So long as my upgrades applied to the giant.

Or if giant upgrades translates to this new giant variant.

obtuse granite
#

Hmmm... Yeah I do like my self a miner 1v1 these guys would be pretty funny on that front.

hoary shell
#

(My miner build.)

obtuse granite
#

Oh I thought you were talking about using miners to fight.

hoary shell
#

I do use miners to fight. They're the tanks in my formation.

obtuse granite
#

Oh lol I get it. Clever.

hoary shell
#

I Garrison the sicklewrath while I build up my economy.

#

The Sickles are the speed and precision in my deck.

obtuse granite
#

And you aim for the hard counter strat.

#

Nice.

hoary shell
#

So if someone uses a shield bubble to avoid my garrison archers, I let loose the sicklewrath to destroy their troops while the bubble is active.

obtuse granite
#

Ok. Pretty nice.

Does it have to be a miner ‘giant’ though, why not the ‘scavenger’. Costs 300 gold and 50 diamonds with 3 housing space. But provides the benefit of 4 miners. He provides a burst of resources but tires out, so his health bar reduces permanently for every run he makes. Eventually he’d die and free up space. It’s like a quick way of increasing your resources. Obviously there’s be balancing issues but at least it wouldn’t look unnatural

Eclipsors are your down fall though I would say.

hoary shell
#

And then the poison for my miners is mainly just for added damage. Useful for Speartons and Rip riders.

hoary shell
#

I just finished a battle where the enemy used wizards and Eclipsors.

#

I won overwhelmingly.

#

I kept my troops together in one place until I had enough to push back to their statue and bring it down.

obtuse granite
#

Hmm well that would make sense there deck required way to much economy and wizards just aren't really that good over all by them selves. They need speartons to help tank for minion hordes.

#

Gtg brb.

hoary shell
#

Exactly. And my miner build defeated them.

#

See you later.

obtuse granite
#

@hoary shell well any how I was thinking of an eclipsor spam build I stole from a real toxic guy I met early on that basicly used bubble to protect the eclipsors from projectiles and the strat was more or less to runn in bubble, and run off when the bubble is about to run out so the eclipsors are protected the whole time. It's weak to an early rush for sure but the build is fun.

hoary shell
#

That particular build does sound powerful in the right circumstances. But it doesn't seem very interesting in the long term. Plus yeah, early rushes would be detrimental.

obtuse granite
#

On the subject of builds @hoary shell I ounce ran a rather funny early rush build using shadowwrath.

#

The idea was to speed run train a spearton and an shadow wrath, and rush the enemy side user controlling the spearton, and just stand and tank while the shadowwrath did all the work from behind the spearton, when the spearton got to lower health have another spearton and another shadowwrath qued at the right time, and some glacial archidons if you really want that slow down, and have the shadowwrath retreat back to middle and cover for the shadowwrath by standing and tanking till it dies, then scroll to middle where if timed right your spearton should be just ariveing at middle with the additional shadowwrath and user control the spearton again and arrive not 5 seconds later in ever greater numbers, using rage to eat faster and mass heal to cure your troops of poison if they have acid rain.

I play Call of Duty: Cold War and I really love using melee weapons and just bouncing around the map with the Sai.

obtuse granite
#

Hey same. I like mele in gun games.

hoary shell
#

Yup. But I like variety and stuff, so I also use shotguns, burst rifles, and semi-auto rifles.

#

I don't really use assault rifles or snipers.

#

But I like a good LMG.
