If castle archers dont stop rushing, then what do you propose will?

Quote from daltonwarrior

Good defense with archidons and speartons....but castle archers alone can at least mess up a swordwrath and archidon rush.

Nice to see you defend your dear archers from terrible nerf :D

Quote from daltonwarrior

Juggs and Speartons are TANK units, they can withstand the arrows of couse. But castle archers are damn powerful on other units excluding giants. And even Juggs and Spears take a lot of damage from a full pack.

And when you're in a large fight at the enemy's camp I find this hard to do. I'm talking about early game rushing being completely destroyed. Also, if you don't micro you're DEAD. I know you can avoid taking too much damage by microing, but they're simply too powerful.

I swear the IQ here is really low. I was arguing against BUFFING the archers. jesus. how hard is that to understand? Reducing castle archer range would allow for ARCHERS not fucking castle archers (can you read?) to snipe miners on the outer edge of the first row.

And why shouldnt they stop an archer and sword rush? How the hell do you get a "good defense" of speartons and archers early game? great logic.

Walls, then.......

Quote from jerrytt

... and what do you do to stop them from banging on your walls?

Quote from daltonwarrior

Castle archers will still be defenders, just not so powerful. With the help of a wall they should be able to fend them out even without AOE.......I think..........

Quote from Azxc

Don't think so, when you have 20 swordwraths rushing there, if you don't have AOE damage
Then say goodbye to your miners, situation is more worse with rage...

I just think CAs are just not too powerful and not too weak

Quote from stickman311

Castle archers are the exact reason why, my 12 giants won't attack 11 giants

Quote from FailingAtFailing

Couldn't you sacrifice one giant to tank all the aoe damage for the other giants. It would still be able to attack for a little bit, but would die sooner since it is taking the full brunt of the castle archers and giants?

And why is giant spam being discussed here now?

Quote from nutsophast

I don't think Castle Archers are op at all. Their whole purpose is to keep low tier units away. If they can't, what's the use of even buying one. Besides, they can be easily countered like failingatfailing said.
