      Relative strength of FS themes: Mirefolk > Snapteeth > Psychics > Meta = Boghoppers = Salaman > Poison> Monks > beasts. Not sure about fry.

      @Sokolov Similarly could we get some more diversity in the snaptooth beaters?
      1. doubtofbuddha

        I mean basically we just have a ton of bruisers that kind of blur together with only slightly different roles. They are kind of strong in the form that they have tons of multi-attack but it mostly leaves them as a bit one dimensional.

        If there is something that can be killed with a ton of mid-damage attacks then they are tight, but anything else they just kind of die against. Though I guess this could be resolved by providing more answers through FS's spell, relic, and equipment kit.

      @Sokolov Could we get something done with the Fire Salaman in the next patch?
      1. doubtofbuddha
        doubtofbuddha
        It is just kind of sitting there being sucky. It could potentially fill a tanky, ranged, or (less relevantly) aoe role that the theme is kind of lacking at the moment.

        it's simply fire eater taking up 8 nora. Though I don't think every salaman needs to be streamlined into being 'great in salaman'. That said, fireeater could be one of his upgrades

        I sent sokolov a build suggestion, part of the change was to give him fire eater as an upgrade. And it is not so much him being 'not great in salaman' as 'bad in general'

      Does anyone else find it strange that Snaptooth, which are modeled after alligators and such have a bunch of champions with a flying leap?

      Whenever I look at the dwarven medic it makes me look at the glowing slider and go, "What the firk? Seriously? Why?"

      So is there any reason to play FF meta bg over a split?

        I build a lot of splits, and as long as splits don't let you play say, 20/10, I don't think there really is a problem. You play FF ST yeti because it's not worth swapping 5 yeti to non yeti trying to keep some yeti support (like call of the tundra)
        Dec 30, 2015
      4. narvoxx
        narvoxx
        So to add here, themes that are playable in splits don't have strong in-faction support that can't be fixed in another faction. (like yetis, yetifang and call of the tundra are irreplaceable to me)

        Maybe they should reduce the range of ping, its nora cost, and give mindshredder more hp/ability.

        darkmarsh warsong is extremely broken and gekaal could use a slight nerf as well.

        Darkmarsh Warsong is banned in ranked. You should start a thread on gekaal. The community needs its 15 minutes of hate.

      Farmers in the tournament are ridiculous. I maybe get 1 real game out of 3. All of the rest are people just auto-surrendering to me.

        I think Jellebrium-focused FS expansion like the Firk one we had earlier in the year would be fantastic. Ideally we can reach the point where we have enough Jellebrium to give real decisions in the bg building process.

      Boghoppers are ruined. The new boghoppers have no synergy with boghoppers at all.

        just because they don't have a thematic ability that doesn't mean they have 0 synergy. quite frankly there are a ton of hoppers with healing options and then the occasional super tank that alone is a synergy

      Should you be able to equip an incorporeal unit with something that makes it immune to magic? That seems to be a bit above acceptable.

      Does that list seem right? What do similar lists look like for other factions? Trying to gauge the breadth of very good themes by faction.

        you can farm noobs and get a high rank with anything, doesnt mean theyd beat any real opponents playing real bgs with them.

      So as far as I can tell FS's playable in the Top 40 bgs right now are meta, psychics, semi-aquatics, salaman, and snaptooths.
