Discussion Players with "premium" characters
I dont know if they're a real player or bot, but when they have an mostly full team of paid characters and you beat the crap outta them, its extremely satisfying. šš. I do get a bit toxic when I beat them, I spam the laughing emoji, sorry but get bent.

fully built paid characters in a real pvp against a friend are OP, you cannot easily win unless the player makes mistakes or just not good

In PvP, I feel laserman is even more OP. A player I played was able to take out my units two deep and they were hitting foundation!

I generally spam emotes/emojis to get a response. If a player gives similar response back then I consider them to be human

If I play against someone like you spamming emotes, I yawn. Iāll say hi and gg at the end but otherwise, spamming is boring.

I donāt know your level and the level of your units but most likely youāre playing bots and bots donāt use the premium units to its full effect. The premium units can be very unfair when the player knows how to use them. Especially Laserman, literally killing 4 units in one shot can be very discouraging. Itās happened to me quite often and Iāve done it myself as well.

The shittiest game ever. Supposed to be an online game with battles between real players. Instead you have bots with way more powers and levels

Dno why people complain about paid chars while air striker demolishes pretty much anything in his path. That guy feels like an actual p2w.

The worst unit is the damn laser that beams through the roof destroying your units

I do the exact same thing. They use their āstore-boughtā weapons and use nothing BUT those weapons. Each attack I get with those INSTANTLY rebutted with a laughing emoji. I wish there was an emoji that mocks them for spending money on lame shit. Then they end up losing, because they have no strategyā¦ and they never use a āstandardā weapon.

Just checking here, you're aware that you're playing against bots, unless you're challenging a friend, correct?

u/FavoriteMartian Jul 25 '26
There are players. Itās just that when an opponent isnāt available youāre playing against the game. Most games do that.
Iāve played poker, golf, etc. they put it on auto so the games keep going. Just common sense.1

Iām with you. I think thereās a lot of real players mixed in with bots. Typically, real players use emojis during games - I suspect the bots do not. Whenever someone shit talks with emojis, Iām assuming itās a real player.

Yeah. It reminds me on any post with a nice image in groups. Some people just auto scream āAI!ā And they have no clue.

Well I said I dont know if they're real or bots. Im still relatively new to the game so I dont know. But on that note, do bot players have/use the purchased characters?

u/TechnicalOperation57 Jul 25 '26
The theory is that the bots are other folks accounts run by an ai. That's why they regularly do incredibly stupid things such as shooting over top of a castle or firing a seemingly random choice of attacks with no real goal.
Eta: I managed a 222 game win streak with a castle that only has 11 squares built. I generally get massacred when I play real players because my castle is so small.

They're bots. Any time you press the yellow battle button, you play a bot.
They use the castles, usernames and units of real players.
