How to greatly Increase Defense - Flower Defense

no likes ... I am greatly disappointed

if topic reaches 300 likes I will consider uncovering another great strategy for regular players

Thank you for that valuable information, even tho I dont like that we are able to use this strategy but thats only my personal opinion and I will use it as long as it is in the game.

let me know how it worked for you, I will try to create flower lvl 2 which will withstand longer and will deal more dmg, we will see if it is possible

at the same time write how do you counter flowers.

For sure there is one counter with range units

I wonder if we can counter it with melee.

wow, this is nonsense i have ever read. i cant believe the developers missed this cheating method. this is not a "strategy", this is an exploit, plain & simple.

I guess you are new to the game then jaffar386. It would been flagged by the moderators if it was cheating and we would not be able to see or post on it anymore. I for one think that it is a good strategy.

ahahahahaha how is that strategy? if thats the way people play this game, then i guess i wont be playing it. thats a shame, it has potential.

edit: the more popular article on this subject literally describes it as an exploit of a glitch. if you dont see how this is an exploit, im not sure how to illustrate it. describing the process is self-evident of its nature.

Pretty sure I know an effective and easy counter to the Flower Defense strategy.

So Bytro, are you gonna fix this? Clearly this is unintended, beginning with the fact that armies have marching orders but are still recieving the fortress bonus.

Don't use insults!

this is known from at least 8 years and was banned for 8 years because it changes whole balance of the game

what is your response?

It's simple really, use bombarding units and target the city, NOT the units inside.

ehmm, you can use flower anywhere, not only in cities, that is the main issue here

ie someone is defending crossing of roads and there is no town to bombard

It's nice that someone found the time to ban me over my comment here, but not to comment on the illegality of this method.

Flower was banned for 10 years and there was reason for that

now it is allowed so why not to take full advantage?

Because it's still the very same exploit of an oversight in the game mechanic and it's a bush league move to use those.

probably, but if top players who are regarded to be the best, who were finalists of Bytro Championship are using it against you, even thought they do not have to because of having 6-1 advantage, you start to think what is wrong

is it me or them

and you finish fighting Flower with the Flower

it is one of top 3 exploits available now so it is your choice what to do with it.

Call it cheap cheating and look down on anyone who resorts to this is what I decide to do with it then.

There are people who are using that against others

and there is 90% of people who have no idea what flower is and why it is so effective

I wrote that article so people could understand what enemy is doing to them and have time to prepare defensive measures be honest- most of people do not have time or will to do flowers

Flowers are also great way to defend against HNR and other active opponents

this give chance to defenders to have advantage over attacker like in a real world

Yeah, that's why you only explained how to do it and didn't spend a single word on how to combat it. Very credible.

Using realism to justify an actual game exploit is very creative, too, in my opinion. But whatever, I've said my piece. I was very surprised to find that this was now apparently considered legal but that's not the only change I've been stunned by. I guess allowing it might have been easier than fixing it? I just found it important to point out how this is and always has been considered an exploit and is not just some other tactic to use. Some people might find that important before using it, one can still hope.

it should be forbidden IMHO

I lost a game due to fact that enemies were able to use it - and with more numerous armies I was not able to continue asymmetric warfare os specialized troops and skills vs quantity and activity

idea is simple- start using it and you will see bytro will ban it once more.

I hope someone will l find a way how to counter it as i would like to know how to counter it too. I am
betting that for some guys it was the only way to win maps so I did not want it to stay that way.
