Ive played hundreds of pvp matches at this point, 9k + trophies, been in since EARLY beta, and 9/10 times its nothing but chinese bots spamming unbound ontop of your base. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I am not the only one who thinks this.
If its not unbound spam, its Baron w/ Mage talent spamming you with 800 units, or Hogger w/ hp talent spamming cycle units to spam your Hogger to level 100 because of Heros Resolve.
There are several ways to combat this. Here are a few suggestions to resolve this.
-
Bot detection/banning please?
-
Cap unbound units so you can only use 1 or 2 on your army.
-
Alternative to #2, increase the gold cost of unbound units
-
Make the Rocket towers actually useful. They attack WAY TO SLOW for tiny damage and cant take out basic units before they die.
-
Make the final base tower detect stealth, the SAFE pilot with stealth talent destoys towers for no reason. And why shouldnt your ultimate tower not have detection? Like what.
-
Increase the no summon zone on your home tower by at least double.
-
cap how many bonus levels your leader can get from Heros Resolve pvp affix. Cycle spam hoggers become absolutely unkillable very quickly unless you always have a pocket banshee.
-
CAP LEVELS IN PVP (at 6, 3 base levels and +1 for each rank in quality) There is no reason that bots who farm pvp exp 24/7 or whales should be able to completely decimate you. Feels REAL GOOD to fight someone in a competitve mode who is a solid 3+ levels higher where your units cant even dent enemy units because some trust fund baby swiped daddys credit card for $10k. You want to be OP in pve fine swipe away whale, but in a competitive mode? This needs to be addressed.
-
Make it so Baron skeletons dont begin spawning on towers/stones that arent even fully capped.
-
the free mages from Baron should spawn with 1hp or not have a slow. It is way to strong that most heros cant 1tap these mages and then get slow spammed. It buys Baron so much free real estate on the map when your units are crawling to try and tap mages
-
and finally, can you actually rotate pvp affixes? Its been Heros Resolve AND rocket towers for like a month. Its kinda ridiculous.
Bonus) add region locking. Id rather sit in longer ques than be bombarded with chinese bots.
Sorry for the long winded rant. But I like this game and its really dissapointing to see it completely overrun by chinese bots who spam the same strat.
You would think that knowing the strat would allow some counter play, but it really doesnt. Constantly having to spend all your gold defending your base because the rocket tower cant kill a quillboar is absurd. Meanwhile your tower is getting chipped at no matter how many units you spawn to defend it and unless you counter cheese them you will just die to chip and be overrun. Which is worse if the enemy leader is Baron because the entire time you are defending your base the free skeles are capping the map and you eventually get overrun unless you can succesfully backdoor them.
PS: im not saying to add all those nerfs, those are just a few suggestions to fix this absurdity.
If you made it this far thanks for your time, you a real one.
Sincerely, someone being hard gatekept from exceeding Platinum because of chinese unbound bot spammers
