The sage hate here seems to be confined to *mostly* Empress users (that just go for GK/assassins every time). First off, there's a reason SE dominates top ladder, if it was really that OP you would see them everywhere at 3,500+ and I rarely see that.

SE has an elixir advantage, does that not count for something? lol Just confused, there's some sort of advantage to every ruler, if anything Duchess and Warden need some sort of buff/rework because they're not that great but kinda tired of hearing SE players think they're entitled to win every time because they choose the sweaty cycle to win ruler but Sage sometimes counters them so they cry.

As someone who likes to play around with all the rulers I don't think Sage needs as big of a nerf as I see here, maybe hp? or how it restores hp when leveled? sure. But stop complaining how it can splash troops out of the game at 4 stars the way it does when you're sitting on 6 3-star troops from your elixir merge advantage and GK (most broken card in the game) is chain one tapping everyone else in seconds.

If you don't get to 4 star sage by round 5 or 6 you are basically cooked so that's a pretty big handicap, meanwhile SE is always able to capitalize on elixir advantages throughout all rounds.

Just a genuine question, not because it's causing problems for me, not calling for a nerf or anything like that, just surprised this strat doesn't get more hate given all they do is just dump pretty much all their elixir at the bridge and pray over and over for 3+ minutes lol

Super solvable, just make bowler's ability like the giant with no option to start the ability stationary, it's simply activated and as soon as it has something to target and only then does it stand still and begin the ability. No one is otherwise paying to use his ability defensively with no target anyway, so all the "acktually" guys wanting to reply that it would nerf him are just arguing to argue.

Technically the "glitch" would still be possible but it would be a lot harder to pull off since you'd need the bowler and evo skarmy in cycle, placed correctly, AND the Bowler would need something on your side to target exactly where you want it to stop. At that point it's basically props to any player pulling that off perfectly.
