Tartarians in 3.17

[Twan]

I think the change is fine as it is, I'd happily trade 5 tartarians with 25% insanity for one reliable elemental royal.

Tartarians will only continue to be the most popular chassis in endgame because there is no other cost effective *non unique* choice. As soon some cost effective level 9 summons of *non unique* SCs *with magic if you gor them and more than 2 item slots* will be added I'm sure tartarians with insanities won't remain the most popular, even if they cost 10 gems and the others 2 or 3 times more.

The other option : making all SC summons *not* cost effective would be a very bad idea for the game, as hordes of SCs are needed to do anything once endgame spells are researched.

SCs don't dominate endgame, they are just the main counter to the battlefield magic dominating it.
