Default Re: when is the next patch scheduled?

I agree several pretenders need a boost, bu many of those you mentioned seem fine

Sphinx - is 600hp on an immobile really worth 60 points?
This I agree with, but only becuse it can't use teleport. An oracle that makes your capital a bit harder to capture is not worth an extra 60 points.
Quote:
Fountain of Blood - S2/B2 wouldn't break the game now would it?
No, but it dosn't really need it. If you really need it to teleport, you can still give it astral. Right now it does exactly what it was meant to, give you a running start with a blood economy - for zero points.
Quote:
Titan - 100 points would be a better deal for a dubious blessing choice.
I would not mind this change, but I don't think it is necessary. Air bless is not bad, and with that much air, mirror image would also make him good in combat.

Quote:
Father of Serpants - 100 points seems more reasonable for a second-tier SC.
Again, I would not mind it, but it dosn't really need it.
Quote:
Great Mother - Bad stats for a SC, Prohibitively expensive for a dual-bless base, 80 point paths don't add up to 75 points.
I think you underestimate the value of of a regenerating trampler in the early game. And staring with two paths that you might not have easy access to.
Quote:
Lord of the Desert Sun - Very cool avatar that costs too much. 100 points seems more reasonable.
Fire and nature work well together using eagle eyes and some kind of long range fire spell. Still, I wouldn't mind it being a bit cheaper.
Quote:
Scorpion King - Needs a body slot and he's a very competitive pretender.
Two paths and a fairly tough chassis seems OK for the price.
Quote:
Cyclops - See titan. 100 points.
I agree, the Cylops is not great, but I think a better solution is to improve the earth bless.
Quote:
Naga (green) - Worse than the fire Naga, but costs the same? 75 points.
The fire naga is not much better, they both need a price cut.
Quote:
Great White Bull - No slots, Gets owned by fatigue. 50 points.
Agian, a tough trampler is quite good in the early game.
Quote:
Monolith - Immobiles suck. Free please.
I invite you to play agianst me using a monolith sometime, just becouse you need to teleport to use it as an SC does not mean it isn't worth it.
