But in the sword+archer combo in a short map vs chaos, Chaos is destined to lose becuase they will kill your crawlers and bombers 1 by 1! then kill your miners! Castle dead will just kill them slowly 1 by 1! They will get another swordrath.

On a short map Sword and Archer is not what you need to worry about. What needs worrying about is pure swordspam, no rage necessary.

Heh, rage is another add up to your death. At least your death will be swifter.

My only reply to getting rage on a small map is bombs. The amount of damage rage does to a sword is about equal to a bomb's damage now, so 2 bombs and a couple crawlers trumps raged swords.

May I also offer a nerf for CA. Look at this replay. Crawlers cant get past the center without getting shot at, + AoE.

What do you guys think of this? Not enough micro? Well I'm microing at my best, but I still cant beat Order. On Castle.

They just need to get rid of castle. Its too damn small. OvC if the players are of 2k rating the chaos player is sure to lose on castle.

Ooh I agree with splashing poison

for sure slashing poison but only on castle deads not normal 1s

How about this: Castle Dead gets splash poison and NO damage?

What?

Anyway, I think castle deads are fine as-is.

I think they should either splash poison or damage

They need neither of these things.

The main purpose of the deads and archers on the castles is to keep an eye on the statue and the enslaved miners or normal miners.

But the castle dead can't handle rushes because they kill 1 unit at a time.
