Wishlist: How to defeat a SC or Thug?

[bgifu]

That's what I did.An earth 9 bless helps me expand so fast.But with the high earth path,I can only summon king of the earth element in late game.And it is difficult to construct high level item.The diverse path lost the advantage.

I tryed to empower a A2 mage to A3 for the seeking arrow.But only one mage which spell the seeking arrow to opponent home slowed the research is inefficiency.

4E,4S,4D bless may be a commonplace strategy.
