Slitherine

What you guys think about him?
I really don't know what to say about him
why his ability exsist we have such drastically OP mechanics like pull and grappling hook and then this ability is made and makes me wonder what the hell are they thinking?
Honestly though sokolov please help me out with your reason for this ability is it somehow suppose to be some kind of CC with frightning Howl?
@badgerale like to hear your views on this man

 

I haven't had a chance to play since release, so don't know.

Pull and grappling hook are OP? That's news to me.

 

I like him. I like the design of low base damage and escalation.

 

Compared to this ability it is definitely

 

Lol badge we should make pull bg
2x culler
2 x schemer
2x H feinds
Grimlic CCer
2x warden (for pin down)
2x slitherine

 

Maddening Echoes x2

 

Lol double maddening for the kills think it's viable?

 

It's worth trying, but the problem with these decks is that you put a lot of effort into setting up kills while they just get on with smacking you about.

 

I agree , we should do smack too

 

I still don't get why would I want to spend 2 ap just for 1 space even in a situation where I want to remove opponent from the font seem like waste of ap I rather move 1 space and use howl on opponent

I still think that voidraker is still the best DOG leg every other leg after has been disappointing

 

same reason that drive is a good ability

 

drive is giving others 1 ap and damage this only gives 1 space reduction though

 

Sometimes that one space is all you need

 

I've played it a few times now and it seems decent - nothing too special but it has possibilities

 

BUT HE'S SO CUTE.

 

Slitherine is a great champ, and Beckoning Guile is perfect. It's only one space but unlike Pull or Grappling Hook. it's AoE2.

Also, iirc you can relocate enemies onto damaging terrain which is useful on a couple maps. Haven't tried to relocate them off a chasm yet.

Wardens do not have Pin Down anymore.

 

Slitherine is an AOE setup. Most great players know not the leave their champs within 3 spaces at the end of their turn for the sake of spell spam. Cast Beckoning Guile to draw champs together, spam AOE on said champs, and smile at melting faces.

 

This guy fun in my escalation bg

 

Would be nice to get Beckoning Guile on a Goblin King

from Earthmover: Rock Defiance, Create Chasm, Phys Res, Slam
from Reticulated Splinehawk: Aerial Supremacy, Swoop, Flight, +1spd
from Slitherine: Absorb, Cackle, Beckoning Guile, Escalation

Deploy: Reticulated Splinehawk
Deploy: Goblin King w/ Spare Wings(+1 spd and Flight)
(Sov Bounty proc1)Deploy: Earthmover
(Sov Bounty proc2)Deploy: Reticulated Splinehawk
(Sov Bounty proc3)Deploy: Slitherine w/ Spare Wings(+1 spd and Flight)

If you run Groble, Earthmover, Lodestone Monolith, and Spare Parts you could spread Immunity: Phys/Magical and also Rock Defiance via Spare Parts. With Reticulated Spline Hawk you could Bestow Aerial Supremacy and +1spd to Constructs and other units as well.

I have one Goblin King but not Slitherine, would be nice to get one.

 

One Goblin King is never enough but two Goblin Kings are one too many...
