Gamemode idea

[sage cosmos]

Famine:
There is only 1 crystal mine in each side and only 2 gold mines in each side, unit, upgrades and spell costs are increased by 15%, no tower, only 1 gold mine and 1 crystal mine in the middle,
And miners mine 5% less resources.

To win this gamemode you will need a very economic and non-tower dependent deck

[rancid bronze]

you done cooked

[uncut phoenix]

it will just be who lost their early game unit first tbh

[sage cosmos]

Yeah but the center doesnt really give a huge advantage here so its more on how expensive the army used is and does it have economic boosts

[languid parcel]

Losing the first early game unit will put you into a massive disadvantage even without tower in this gamemode

[sage cosmos]

Other than that, is the gamemode balanced?

[languid parcel]

The spell and upgrade costs being increased is completely unnecessary due to the lack of economy, and miners mining 5% less resources is just

Also wdym by pike walls

[sage cosmos]

Didnt word it properly, the upgrade that allows miners to build walls is unallowed

[sage cosmos]

Thats the point of the gamemode, starve to death.

[languid parcel]

Miner walls

[sage cosmos]

Ye

[languid parcel]

1 mana 2 gold nodes is already a massive eco nerf, you don't need to make upgrades and spells more expensive and make miners worse

At that point, it's too punishing on eco

[languid parcel]

Why wouldn't you allow miner walls?

[sage cosmos]

Poor economy, its a cheap upgrade which you can build in center and will completly destroy your enemies low amount of units or delay them heavly

[sage cosmos]

Yeah thats the point.
Adapt or die Holmes

[dawn wind]

300 gold is a hefty price

[languid parcel]

300 gold in this isn't cheap, and it's basically the only proper tank you could use since tanks are usually too expensive for this

[sage cosmos]

Yeh, but how are the cheap units gonna get through that wall

[languid parcel]

Also, miners wall require you to make one or 2 of your miners stoo mining, which would be devastating for you

[dawn wind]

to keep it fun, why not buff garrison heal for this game mode

[languid parcel]

It has 250 HP only

[sage cosmos]

It deals damage

[languid parcel]

350 at max

[dawn wind]

neglible

[languid parcel]

Not enough to be a threat

And as I said, you'd have to sacrifice a good chunk of eco for a single miner wall

[sage cosmos]

Maybye will consider that

[sage cosmos]

Ok i will settle that, but im keeping the poor eco
