Head canon. NL has an idea for a new horse build but needs everyone else to stop running horse first. No reason to get so mad about people running a bad unit
Horse is actually doo-doo tier. I do lose to it now and then which is just a testament to the game being pretty well-balanced...but it's so bad. I think it's actually worse because it's tempting, the effect is really easy to understand and implement but +1 (or 2 or 3) damage usually matters so little.
@@Northernlion It is funny to me how people compare horse 3 to a turkey... when the level 1 turkey gives 3 more stats (health, which is also better), costs 15 less gold, and can still scale with levels. Turkey is a much higher tier unit... true. But you can transition to a turkey build with lots of other unit comps beforehand. Whereas you pick a horse and you've already wasted 2 gold.
My seals always pop off instantly. I always get a seal and a chocolate in literally the next shop. Suddenly my team has free pizzas for the price of a sushi or pizza or pear.
watching you roll past that bison at 44:10 made me question both my sanity and reality itself edit: and when you gave chocolate to the bison with no level 3s I fully lost myself
if you get bluebird early it can be an end game carry. especially with a tropical fish. u put bluebird at the far left to just boost its attack from the beginning.
At 23:54 when the Otter gets sniped by a Mosquito, the floating damage number that pops up on top of the Otter is 5 for just an instant before turning into a large 1. Why?
I ran a lobster, I know what it does, I have gained true power, it still sucks EDIT: Anti Dolphin Tech is either a second crab or a dumpster unit to fill space. Sure, you end up hard carrying a unit, but the dolphin is busy doing nothing of value
I've ran a level 3 dolphin with a tiger behind, it cannot send 2 attacks to the same enemy so it will hit 2 different lowest hp targets for 15 damage each. I won that round, dolphin is criminally underrated
I don't know what's up with my shops but there are some units I can literally never get to Lv3 of even Lv2. Like, I don't know if some animals are rarer than others but I see incredibly few Dolphins. I'd love to try some novel builds but the game won't let me lol
Seal usually comes too late or doesn't fit in, but I just had a run today were a got seal as soon as I could. I already had a crab with meat a dodo and found a rabbit and just started feeding it. Flow some cows through throw a snake in when you need it. 10 wins easy. Roll me Freeze me Juice me Squeeze me
I’m gonna be that weirdo who defends the Seal, but I’ve ran Seal+Bunny a lot and it’s pretty good to get the seal to x/50 with either melon or garlic, while also buffing some of the weaker dorks in the squad. It’s made big scorp work for me just because bunny+seal+sushi is a recipe for HP. Also if you see a cow or cat, it feels pretty pog, and it’s good at turning chocolate into an omni buff. I could be wrong though, I don’t play that much.
Higher attack animals go off first, so the caterpillar goes before the mosquito and becomes a new 1/1 animal, then the mosquito goes off and after that the 1/1 butterfly would have gone off had it survived
If I'm not mistaken animals' abilities trigger in order of their attack stat - the highest goes of first. As the butterfly has 1/1 stats when it transforms, it's ability would have triggered after dolphine's, if it wasn't dead.
The big camel round was the first time I’ve ever super disagreed with how nl played, I mean it was a tough hand to be dealt but I think there were some big throws
How youtube decided to cut the title in my subscriptions: the seal is begging for the d tier (Super Auto Pets) Surely I was confused after reading the first line, expecting only "(Super Auto Pets)" in the second line
That's like the second build that people find out about after horse build lol. It's fine but it's not really that good. It basically means in one specific build elephant is usable. Outside of that it's not great apart from a temporary stat supplement at the rear o the team
It works but not for too long. Elephant is only ok and only for a few turns for a few reasons: 1. Once you reach the point where everyone has 10+/10+ big units your elephant only gets to attack once or twice before dying, so you don't get much scaling on your peacock. This is the main reason you can't use this for very long. 2. Health is a much more important stat to scale than attack while in a fight, so hitting the peacock with the elephant isn't helping as much as it looks like it is. You're better off only hitting the camel for the +1/+2 than hitting both for a +3/+1 on the peacock. Overkill damage is always wasted, but surviving by 1 health means you get to attack 1 more time and get the other guy to waste damage instead. 3. Elephant doesn't synergize with much else, so it becomes useless after you're past the few turns this works in. Camel peacock would have worked about as well, without needing the elephant. Camel kangaroo works even better, even at level 1. All of these still need some other source of scaling because, same as with elephant, you quickly reach a point where animals don't get to attack more than once or twice.

Geez, NL really has an irrational hatred of horses. They aren't that bad, really help you win in the early game.
