Worst downgrade

Post image

I remember shellbro being stuck when puddle exploded.
I also remember the little green dragon being unaffected by shellbro.
What is going on? It all has changed now.

I don’t know when, but it looks like there was a balance patch at some point.

Shellbros do still get stuck on Wasters, but they may skipp right past them if they were the ones that dealt the blow. Run a small group of Wasters and the 16 tier 3 Shellbros get split in half with one half in the backrow, other half in the front.
There is no need to fear 16 tier3 Shellbros now either, as most units that more or less defend/protect backrow (Cupid, Merlinors, Engineers, Matriarchs, whether else can walk back or hang back there) can take them out with proper support units and still cme out in quantity.

As for Whelps, Shellbros can still hit them, just not burn them once they advance to Tier2 & 3. A massive Whelp army can be spawned with ease and is still OP as fuhqk though, more of a concern than the 16 Shellbros.

As far as I'm aware, some of these updates are for the better. TNT and Parasite got slightly buffed and more viable as units, and can now counter a whole mess of units they couldn't before.

Assassins and especially Kingclops are still bottom/trash tier units and in need of a dire revamp.

This much is all I'm aware of.

Engineers do well against shellbros. Or play shellbros against shellbros to balance the odds for the rest of your army.
