That would actually make this game more balanced lol. Because right now there is absolutely no counter to medusas. (shinobi isnt fast enough to catch her before the time limit. If they try to go closer they get owned by the army.)

There is. If someone spams medusa, they would be letting tower down and getting more economy. And also, if they also try to take tower before they make medusa, they would have took a long time to make it, and once it appears, my 3 to 6 spears would kill it

Send out a "meat-shield" and try to get your opponent to stone the meat shield. Since Petrify has a long cooldown, it leaves enough time to allow your real army to obliterate theirs. (Note: This is theoretical)

I don't think your real army is better than theirs and if you send just one unit, they might let the wingadons do the work

Just make 2 ninjas then...

Its not that simple, for two ninjas and shinobi 2, you need 1100 gold, 550 mana. Is it even WORTH it?

I'm pretty sure it may be worth it, it gives you a slight advantage, (but you only need shinobi 1) you get some ninjas and attack using cloak, then the medusas are injured enough to go for the final attack to kill them

I think shinobie 2 would be better. More cloak time and more damage (the second hightes damage in the game ^^)

Logically, Petrify should make walls, turrets, and statues harder to destroy since it turns them into stone.

^agreed

2 ninjas are not going cut it. 1 ninja is going to be stoned before it cloaks (assuming its 1 medusa vs 2 shadowrath), and 1 ninja shinobi won't kill a medusa. Although if it kept attacking the medusa after shinobi it would. But since it's unlikely the medusa will be alone, your shadowrath will have to retreat after an assassination attempt.

Ive won a few games against medusa massers, only by early harrassment of their economy, and an all out offensive when they get their first medusa. the longer you prolong the match, the more they whittle down your troops and get stronger. Im sure If they had better micro, I would have lost no matter what. And they were only at about 1800.

1 ninja with shinobi 2 can defeat medusa (I think). The ninja can run toward the medusa, and when the medusa casts petrify, the ninja can cloak right away, and not get hit by the petrify. The ninja can then proceed to kill the medusa.

I personally don't care about quantity, but they may make the cut before cloak, but that probably won't help. I personally think that it should be a wall of defensive spear wall (even though they can pass it) with sword mass backup, then archer mass to kill them.

I think that works, but may work best with ranged units.
