My favorite NL bald bit is whenever he takes off his headset, chat just starts spamming bald. It seems dumb, and it is, but his baldness really do be hitting different when the headset is no longer there to shield you from the shining dome.
It’s funny how they seemed to tone down scaling in the last two packs but then also went “What if we make an animal that makes it feasible to get your whole squad to 50/50 and able to be any animal you see in the shop”
@@lingo4375 I mean I doubt they’re going to make new animals every week for the weekly pack. They’re going to rotate it for a while, so they’re gonna have to try and balance Lioness at some point
@@NeoBoneGirl you're assuming it's unbalanced from one lucky game lol. First, he got a level early which basically wont happen that often, then he survived barely till round 17 on ties to make it happen and have units that aren't even 50/50.. yeah so broken lol. It's better than chicken for sure, but the problem is the same, you have to survive till then.
@@dman8988 The problem though is that it’s superior to basically every late game scaler, because you sacrifice nothing extra to run it, unlike a Dragon of Poodle where you have to compromise your team.

It honestly amazes me how nl continuously finds new way to simultaneously buff the same pet in his team and in the shop. Thereby completely wasting one half of his shop every time
If you survive for it to pop... and level it up. NL got really lucky with it early. Otherwise it will take too long to scale shop pets you cant even use yet and you will just lose.
I love that they won't make the chicken a T4 so it actually has a chance, but we have a unit that does 2x what the chicken does at the low low price of free. Power creep is insane.
Nah man these devs are geniuses. They all the animals exist to give them data on what works and what doesn't. It would be better to bring in an OP unit and nerf it over bringing in a weak unit and trying to figure out how to make it better.
Surely we're going to talk about how is iron man 2/whiplash bit about "dragging his friend to see it and then rushing out of the theater when it was over" was unbelieveably witty for having had no pause to even think of it
The tapir was busted before. It could copy other tapirs and it always copied the back unit. So as long as you found 2 tapirs, you'd have infinite tapirs. I went up against it just once and managed to win because I think there's a limit of like 50 summons per turn just built into the game and I had a few high health units with garlic.
It blows my mind because just two weeks ago you couldnt stop NL from going garlic blowfish hedgehog. He knows its strong, so why would he suddenly ignore SUPER garlic?
He doesnt do what chat wants him to do, so my assumption is they were telling him to get the lemon and so out of spite he looks at them for a sec then rolls
What happened at the end 1:10:00 with the frilled dragon getting a crit vs a melon and doing 0 damage? The code math must be multiplying the effect on HP instead of changing the damage of the animal attacking? So if it does 18 damage to melon, it reduces the enemies health by 0, multiply that by 2 and it's still 0, so it does no damage. It should probably double the 18 first, then subtract the 20 from it. I guess if you go that way you might end up with some healing melons though..
Super Auto Pots is a GOATed name. I can't believe NL put the skillet before saucepan AND he forgot to butter it. If he doesn't freeze the wok, I am going to lose it. You think the devs will add a griddle next expansion?

You: in an empty, dark room lit only by your screen getting angry at gameplay in the emoji animal game Me: in my big bed with my wife enjoying the NL banter and ambient bird sounds video
@@herbertmorales333 I thought about that but I think that with this mechanic you want to incientivise players buying and selling more animals so maybe it only procs on turns where animals have been bought or/and sold and perhaps can only be applied once so you can't double up on lionesses
The dragonfly is in desperate need of a buff. It either needs to have better scaling or a lower tier because right now it’s just a strictly worse penguin at the same tier
NL in the same video saying “I’m not going to gate myself from using the lioness I’ve only used it once” and “I have more honour than to buy a lioness” gave me intense mental whiplash
NL help my friends make fun of me for watching a bald man play cartoon children's games I've tried explaining that its actually very pog and he talks about twitter and stuff but they don't understand help.
Croissant needs to be removed from the game so NL stops thinking it's amazing on every damn animal. Garlic or Lemon on Blowfish would have been amazing
F it, they should keep the lioness as is since it’s only in the weekly pack anyway it’s gonna rotate out so why not have a goofy op “everything is 50/50 in the shop”. At most it should probably be a tier 6 and not a tier 5
It is interesting cuz it makes high tier units with great abilities that are hard to scale quickly enough viable as fuck. But it makes later scalers wayyy less viable. In the right weekly’s it could be fun, but you have to design them well. And it will always be a must take which is kind of a design anti pattern
can anyone tell me if the bear is bugged? i tried using it earlier in combination with an aardvark and it just didnt do anything. judging from 7:42, i'm lead to believe that's the case
I love how NL had 50/50’s in his shop and he kept armadillo and lioness. Stay true and loyal to the ones that got you there.

How is it both an adjective and a noun?
puts a 22 stat unit in the back, loses, "HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN MAN, I'm never taking that unit again"
Pack 3 fried his part of the brain responsible for ordering up animals, it all started because of big iguanas
Lioness is a better can for free every turn. Run two for like two turns, then just start buy selling until you win. It’s nuts.
And it being a tier 5 just means never ever take a chicken
If you survive for it to pop... and level it up. NL got really lucky with it early. Otherwise it will take too long to scale shop pets you cant even use yet and you will just lose.

Power creep is insane.
to be fair though, it's once per turn instead of stackable like the chicken
Chicken has been absolutely busted at T4, and is still solid in versus lobbies at T5. They are definitely going to nerf lioness anyway.
Nah man these devs are geniuses. They all the animals exist to give them data on what works and what doesn't. It would be better to bring in an OP unit and nerf it over bringing in a weak unit and trying to figure out how to make it better.

Lioness needs to have some condition you need to meet to be balanced.
Idea: have to have a 4-squad for the ability to work
@@herbertmorales333 I thought about that but I think that with this mechanic you want to incientivise players buying and selling more animals so maybe it only procs on turns where animals have been bought or/and sold and perhaps can only be applied once so you can't double up on lionesses
Maybe if you end your turn with 2 or 3 gold, so it's like you're paying for a better can. Similar to how you're paying for a pear with puppy.
I also thought it should have the same condition as the lion: its ability only activates if it's the highest tier unit in your team
@@creamu2roblox I still think that'd be too strong.
Two tips: Respect the garlic. Ants aren't obligated to be position 1.
