Vault

potent current
#

This is overpowered you know

#

7k without monstrosity and earthquake with no unit cap could push through the enemy statue with a few support.

High price, pop, and expensive respawn isn't enough to balance the guarantee of making it to the opponent's statue.

Not to mention 5k gold and 1k crystal is easily achieved with vault. The only real drawback is the training time because you will only get this later in the game if you manage to save enough while also having a decent army

#

The drawback of costly respawn is useless when Griffon is too tough to die anyway. You only need 1 life with Griffon to have a good shot of winning

#

The passive is an entirely different problem of its own. Even if griffon's massive stats fails to guarantee a win, his massive buff to giants will

meager cove
#

What the fck.

#

Uhh, first off: 20 Pop?

#

Not only that but the health, damage, and cost is absolute bonkers.

#

Crazy part is this isn't even probably the worst griffon post I've ever seen

#

Is this supposed to be for sws or swl

#

Legit just deathmatch and you can immediately get him at the start

#

He costs absurdly much, but that doesn't even matter since when you do get him it's an instant win

#

Literally how can you counter this without having your own griffon

potent current
#

This is without Monstrosity into the equation btw

meager cove
#

With monstrosity

#

8,400 HP.

#

9,800 HP on monstrosity II.

#

That's without armory's own buffs.

potent current
#

Excluding armory is stupid

meager cove
#

I forgor what armory buffs

#

Or how much it buffs

potent current
#

15 & 20%

meager cove
#

Ok

#

9,450 HP on armory I monst. I

#

11,200 HP on armory II & monstrosity II

#

Bro that's like half of lunarclops's health

#

I’ll let the others judge u

#

Bc u already know what i think of this

Judge before reading*

#

just to clariffy Griffon isn't affected by the monstrosity enchantment, sorry if i forgot to add that. Also made him even more expensive so that even with vault it will take a while to get him

safe lodge
#

then ban him from deathmatch if you think he will be such an issue

meager cove
#

hell nah

ornate jewel
glossy egret
#

You fcked it up

#

So much already

#

Stop fcking up the damn general more

#

More expensive doesn't fix insane stats

#

You're only ruining it even more

safe lodge
#

alright then, how about less health and attack. Now stop complaining about some shit that won't even be in the game

glossy egret
#

I'll keep complaining

ruby yacht
#

dude

glossy egret
#

Complaining's practically my job at this point

ruby yacht
#

i thought after 2 months the fan ideas would become better

#

its worse now

#

anyways No

safe lodge
ornate jewel
#

Ur doing my general dirty

potent current
#

This idea wouldn't really work for multiplayer if the main pitch is that it has to be extremely strong because it's extremely expensive including the respawn.

We can't have a general that powerful regardless of how expensive it is because it's either impractical expensive or guaranteed victory

safe lodge
#

its not a guaranteed victory, in fact he would be more of a very late game unit to get because if you are constanly getting rushed and having to replace or make a defense that it would take forever to get (Crawler Spam, Dead+Spirit Deads, fucking atreyos etc.) and even if you do manage to get him than hes not invincible or anything like just archer spam him, or swarm him with giants

meager cove
#

Archerspam would be viable if he could be freezed

#

He can't.

#

You literally cannot do anything about him

#

His damage ONE SHOTS Archidons, almost TWO SHOTS shadowraths, and will kill Giants in about 7 hits.

#

guys don't be mean to him, he's new to the job 🥺

meager cove
#

Stats that are comparable to like chaotic inferno lord

mighty trout
#

🐧

ornate jewel
#

So its fair

meager cove
#

Same

#

But wait

#

We should be better than this

#

Just because we experienced it, doesn't mean we should do it too...

#

We must break this generational curse

mighty trout
#

we're too critical to new fan ideas creators when they don't even know what they're doing, I've seen many quit before success

potent current
#

I only gave a breakdown about the idea

#

What's so harsh about that

mighty trout
potent current
#

Fig is at it again

ornate jewel
ruby yacht
safe lodge
#

fixed Griffons passive to make it more clear on the "While Griffon is on the battlefield" line and fix any Monstrosity complaints

simple cairn
#

ok wtf is this

#

20 pop with some ridiculous stats

#

like why

safe lodge
#

do you want him to be accompanied by like 20 archidons or do you want him with a smaller army (20 is exadurated but you get the point)

meager cove
#

Griffon is 20 pop, 20 Archidons are 60 pop

#

That's 80 pop in total

#

You can still fit 20 pop worth of units

mighty trout
#

🐍

safe lodge
#

still i think 20 is a good limit for him due to his power

potent current
#

He shouldn't have that much power in the first place

#

Which would mean he wouldn't need 20 pop to balance it out

mighty trout
#

Expensive and Overpowered doesn't mean balanced.

potent current
#

Overpowered but Expensive doesn't mean balanced.

safe lodge
#

so what do you want me to do, nerf everything or just nerf the pop and power?

mighty trout
#

and the cost..

#

and the hp and damage..

safe lodge
#

so basically everything

#

ok heavily nerfed some things, others things just got reduced slightly (like crystal cost)

ornate jewel
meager cove
mighty trout
#

atleast griffon can be AI Abused..

#

but still this is mad

meager cove
#

Idk what you're supposed to do with a UC lunarclops

#

He can't even go backwards

glossy egret
meager cove
#

Plus I could ignore him and go straight for the statue

glossy egret
meager cove
#

Oh and you forgot

#

Xiphos fcking exists

#

Lunarclops is getting annihilated by a singular general

glossy egret
meager cove
glossy egret
meager cove
#

Just look at what this man does to giants

glossy egret
#

My guy

#

Do you have an army of xiphoses?

#

Your units are still the main DPS

meager cove
#

No but I have UC, temple 2, and a brain

glossy egret
#

If your units can't kill lunarclops, xiphos won't do much either

glossy egret
meager cove
#

Not to mention lunarclops's massive hitbox

glossy egret
#

You won't be fighting just lunarclops

meager cove
glossy egret
#

You'll be fighting him with a full army too

meager cove
#

It really depends on how much lunarclops is consuming here

#

In a balanced sense he would have like 40 or 50 pop

#

That's just a complete loss for the enemy

#

But if it's in-game lunarclops as of now I'm pretty sure he doesn't have pop or just has 9 pop

#

If that's the case then I'm just fcked

glossy egret
#

Lunarclops in the campaign lost because he didn't have an army with him

meager cove
#

Why does xiphos's blade breaker have a 10 second CD💀

glossy egret
#

Also even with 50 pop, he can still be a threat to 2 entire armies

glossy egret
meager cove
glossy egret
#

Give him like a few spears and he's gonna steamroll

meager cove
#

you could literally just place archers behind lunarclops and he couldn't do jacksht about it

#

His dumbass ai won't even turn around, nor could his beam hit his damn feet

meager cove
# glossy egret *other units*

And what other units could defend a max pop army with only like 50 pop left not including the possibility of miners alive

glossy egret
#

No miners?

meager cove
#

Literally just go behind him

#

Also it would be tedious having to wait for lunarclops to catch up everytime you try to advance your army

glossy egret
#

4 spears and 10 archers, still a considerable army and with lunarclops's support, it'll be unstoppable

meager cove
#

Wait how slow would lunarclops be against snow squall surge

#

or just

#

No wait I don't think he gets slowed down

glossy egret
#

I think surge just doesn't work on squall anymore

meager cove
#

They actually did something good

#

Anyways

ornate jewel
#

Im still waiting for miner hustle buff

meager cove
#

I still think xiphos would easily beat a lunarclops army, literally just distract the enemy's other units with your own while xiphos just deletes lunarclops without being interfered just because of his massive ahh hitbox

#

What percentage of health does xiphos even deal again

ornate jewel
#

25%

meager cove
#

Current or max?

ornate jewel
#

Current pron

meager cove
#

Aight

#

In 8 hits it puts lunarclops into giant health

#

With temple II there's a CD of 6 seconds each bladebreaker

#

If you let xiphos survive enough he could bring down lunarclops into 1000 HP within 48 seconds

potent current
#

Doesn't he have a DPS limit?

vital forge
#

The literal only balance this thing has is specifically Xiphos. And that's it.

#

Literally too op already. And you can literally build a deck to rush, and late game. Then just push.

#

But it's not good mid game. Mid game ends too fast if we just bring Vault with this.

#

And making this General a Mythic has some level of balance. But, there is that enchant now.

#

This unit would trash the game so hard that it ends.

#

This can only be a campaign unit. Anything else. Banned.

simple cairn
#

ok why did this get changed to 10 pop

#

wtf

#

just get over this idea

icy vault
#

From the griffon posts I seen

#

I dont really think he fits in the game right now

glossy egret
#

Griffon is a giant that's also going to be a general

#

It's like general² or giant²

icy vault
glossy egret
#

And normal generals are already bullsht OP enough

icy vault
glossy egret
#

Magis ain't a normal general

#

He's half

icy vault
#

Maybe give a good treatment like sw2 magikill

safe lodge
simple cairn
vital forge
simple cairn
#

this is literally just giant but with 3x hp and more dmg

#

and making it with more pop also ruins it

#

giant general ideas are just like that so get over with it
