Default Re: Why no love for Caelum?

ALL i've seen so far is speculation and observations from an outside point of reference, many of the people arguing for the nerf have even admitted that they have played Caelum either infrequently or not at all. How can you be arguing for the nerfing of a nation, or even a spell, that you havn't even used in depth? All your seeing is the strengths without seeing the weakness's. Until someone can put forward hard evidence that Caelum is winning too many of its games i believe a nerf would not only be premature, but downright stupid.

note: I agreed with the VQ nerf, and i still do. Because if you looked at the games going on at the time a very large percentage of people were taking the VQ, even for nations that should not be thematically taking them. Once you get to the point when everyone is gravitating towards a single strategy because of its effectivness, then it might be time to impose a nerf to maintain balance and diversity. Frankly this is not the case with Caelum. In the starting game Posts i see, rarely if ever is Caelum the first nation selected, and i most definetly do not see everyone gravitating towards a false horror strategy during the playing of the game.
