    Yea you can win a war of attrition vs doom towns with just archer balls if you take it slow and retreat when needed to thin out the spawns. I usually will start tackling the towns once I have a ~25ish archer ball, but more is always safer.

    Secret of Mana seems like nostalgia votes to me. Who hasn't already played that game multiple times? Vote for something you haven't played nerds.

    I'm like +$80 on the game which is kinda nice. Sold my twitch prime outfit and invested it heavily in to gamescon crates lol, I clearly have a future in day trading.

    There were a couple of periods on the test servers where clothing didn't spawn at all and the games felt vastly less laggy during landing. I'm not even actually sure why clothing still exists as ground spawns? The tables haven't been updated to include any of the new cosmetics they add, so it's...

    Or just don't spawn at all. I dove military last night and the entire place spawned nothing but clothes and melee weapons. We're talking every barrack, the radar building, the big warehouses, jails, all of it. You had like 20 people with crowbars and pans and fists all running around like...

    The small runner packs spawn at the edges of the maps yea, not specifically from doom towns. They frequency of them seems to be pretty random, but they can start as early as day 11 after your first raid and they ramp up in size/frequency until the end of the game. Doom towns can kind of amplify...

    God I am so boned right now. My 980ti is dying, getting constant display driver crashes/recoveries while playing games. Reinstalling windows with fresh new drivers doesn't resolve it, and video card prices are fucking insane right now. Nvidia pls when is 1100 series launching. Fuck you buttcoins.

    Yea some starts on the highlands map are just a dick kick with 2-3 doomtowns within sight of your command center, but once you get to day 20 or so and can start expanding it's easy mode.

    Sign up for a month of Manatraders. I use it to grind standard matches and whatever other crap I want to test. Their 35$/month plan is basically infinite standard play time for any deck you want really, so it'd more than cover the costs of any pauper deck. Hell even their super basic one is...

    Yea map 2 is very easy once you learn to slow down your early game and not piss off the doomtowns too quickly. Infinite farmland and room to expand. Final wave wall defenses are typically as many towers full of snipers as I can muster, with heavy shock tower coverage and however many thanatos I...

    If the final horde is breaching your outer layer of walls you didn't economy hard enough, at least on normal zombie population.

    I never actually build any soldiers. A ranger ball of 25-30 can clear out a good chunk of the map and even smaller doomtowns if you take it slow. Then I just skip to spamming snipers around day 30-40 ish. Soldiers are super awkward vs the spitter zombies and just wind up dying unless you're...

    Yea that sounds about right. It gets a little complicated on the desert map because claiming more space is so difficult, so you wind up with a lot of shitty non-bank cottages and shit just to try and assemble enough of a deathball to start clearing safely.

    Those stats are magical christmas land of infinite room to spam tents, and the math falls apart badly vs a proper bank/market cluster with stone houses. Past day 40 or so your gold income is basically the only resource that matters anymore, as once you have access to advanced farms/quarry and...

    Micro can be fudged by liberal use of the pause button for the most part. Build order is more of a rough outline than it is an actual blueprint. Most of the learning curve involves being able to adapt to shitty map layouts to be able to expand properly, find enough farmland/stone/iron etc...

    I've cleared the first 3 maps on maximum zombie density and 80 days, but can't beat the desert map even on base difficulty. The zombie aggro on this fucking map just changes the entire way the game works.

    EDH has been the best thing to happen to the regular constructed formats. All the actual ham planets, neck beards, and human dumpster fires that don't shower all have gravitated to EDH and can be safely quarantined in their own corner on their own night to have their autistic slap fights...

    Depends a lot on how much cash you're willing to spend. Modern is definitely more open (in general) for fringe or tier 2 strategies, and even pretty janky piles can win with some decent draws and matchups. Mono red skred/prison just won a big-ish SCG event for example, and that deck is pants...

    Desert map feels nigh impossible so far. Expanding is such a nightmare with how many zombies there are, and it starts just sending random runners at you as early as like day 5.

    Yep, any other shortcomings in your defenses can be 100% made up for by a strong economy. My last run on the tundra map I ended with a population of ~2700, with 3 bank/markets surrounded by stone houses. 90something towers of snipers, 45 thanatos, and a few dozen shocking/executor towers is...

    Bannings should help RIX value a bit as people flee to vampire/merfolk tribal decks, but yea overall the block is mostly poop. Feels way more like a commander set than it does a regular set.
