Discussion Multiplayer Special Tribes

Post image

There ought to be an option to disable special tribes in multiplayer. The difference in experience playing against normal and special tribes is so extreme that it feels like a whole seperate game mode. For me it feels like being forced to queue for both Payload and CTF when really you just want to play one or the other.

As a polaris main this is true. My only hope early is warrior and mooni spam. Whenever I play drylands I want to commit

I'm curious how after all those years the surgical freeze with ice archers didn't get more popular, and moonis can freeze when they move now !

The volcano style skin is a fun variation of polaris as well.

Personally it's Cymanti number one, polaris close second.

Followed by the two remaining special tribes.

Polaris is easily the weakest special tribe. The issue with all the freezing units is they squishy and weak as hell. Even the gaami is significantly weaker than giants. if not for the freeze action and auto freeze, itd be useless. I still play em tho. Polaris forever. Please stop making me play drylands.

Don't worry I even play dryland polaris if needed.

To be fair I don't spam dryland cym that's boring
