Dude its not a glitch, its supposed to be there. You should have gotten more crawlers and who asked you not to have any eclipsors? Its supposed to be there. Stop complaining sometimes g doesn't work.

Its still overpowered even if it doesnt always work. At least in my opinion.

In my opinion, other than it being faster, theres no difference between this and regular kiting. Plus, without the existance of g, lag would be the determining factor in games involving chases. All one would have to do is open up 10 tabs, and kiting would be worse than just running away normally. So, I think it should be kept in because its the only consistent way to kite in laggy games.

Actually manual kiting is faster, but, it will always slow down unlike g, but if someone opens 10 tabs, then I would pratically rage out

There is no way to consistently play in laggy games. This 'glitch' makes it impossible to approach to attack in games without lag.

It allows for kiting when there is lag, which I think is very important. Now, I don't feel like watching the replay, but it sounds like you're using Chaos. Early-game, dual bombers can overtake a single archer early game and kill it for only 150 gold. Mid-game, some juggerknights with charge will tear through archer fire due to their armour and stun any protecting units allowing the juugerknight to do damage to the archers. Late-game, Chaos has many powerful options such as marrowkai to cast their fairly powerful hell fists (I think they have the same range as poison :O) or giants to tank with huge amounts of health and splash damage melee (kinda nerfed to only 3 units, but still useful) or maybe even wingidons which outclass archers in almost every way except cost and build time.

Dont use eclipsors, use deads. Not my fault that you chose a bad build. Or that you prematurely rushed.

By that logic, were stuck with using archers arn't we? Have you ever lost to someone who used albows on chaos? Would that make chaos OP?

And it is your fault that you insist on using an empire that's weaker, then complaining about it when you lose.

Well, people said the same thing when chaos was OP you know, just substitute archers for eclipsors and bombs. I realize its not the same thing but it doesn't make the game any more balanced if we all just used deads. It makes the game no fun.

You're all noobs.
Anyway. In my opinion, Jerry is absolutely correct here, but with that being said. Brock may change it slightly.
Now, BEGONE.
