Three outcomes: - fix nerfs it to an unusable state: we never see them again… tbh I wouldn’t cry… - fix fails to address issue and still makes mathematically too many skulls… GW will be BDW every day… - best outcome: fix leaves BD viable but balanced, say on par with other legendaries we actually see, like Gorgotha, maybe Mab, ideally not EK… and we see it sometimes, especially on brown or purple day ---

Do you always select the 3-trophy match? Or is your team score high enough that all three opponents are W/C/BD/F teams? ---

I change invade teams frequently to avoid burnout but the team score is always 7500+ The BD build changes slightly for instance i have seen: C/C/BD/C W/C/DB/BD W/C/BD/F It just gets very repetitive In fact the coolest battle i have fought this week is one i lost Honor Humility Mercy Gards avatar ---

if the weekly event gives extra 5 glory in pvp - i just do 1trophy battles for entire week for more glory/time ratio 😛 ---

I’m to the point I grind out my trophies and stop playing. 18 Months of Bone Dragon has been enough. True Shot/BD, Maw/BD, and still today’s Bone Dragon. I wish they’d have fixed him back in the True Shot days. ---

Not to flog a (un)dead horse… I was always puzzled why he wasn’t corrected when _every_ other gem-creator was adjusted to not scale gem numbers with Magic stat… Interestingly: pretty sure these are not the worst broken troop meta days we’ve survived… the Webspammer days were worse… ---

Yep with Webspammer you never got your turn back and rage quitted in frustration. At least with BD it’s a quick death if we lose the brown/purple race 😉 ---

In any case i am afraid that Bone Dragon will stay the _fire-when-ready-and-kill-stuff_ braindead troop it is. I remember somewhere back the Devs stating they are very happy with BDs basic concept which sadly is exactely that, to fire whenever ready regardless of the situation, or the board constellation, fire-kill something everytime it is ready. Reducing the produced skulls will hopefully make it less overwhelming but it won’t make the troop any more fun to face. Ironically the reason the Devs gave when they adjusted Sheggra was this: "_The last of the Magic-based gem spammers, we thought that we might be able to leave Sheggra alone. Sadly, no. We would like casting Lava Strike to be all about picking the right time, and it had really gotten to the point where EVERY time was the right time. To compensate, we’ve reduced her spell cost a Little._ " Somehow this standard doesn’t apply to Bone Dragon i guess, cause the basic concept of the troop means EVERY time is the right time… ---

Yeah Webspinner was definitely worse at the time, the game has actual counterplay now so things can get beaten no matter how OP they are. But its a pain for sure. ---

My only problem right now is that the only way to really avoid BD is to use a 1-troop defense, which often gets in the way of the weekly events. It’s either that or fire up the same invade team over and over again. Either way, it sure has sucked the fun out of the game. I kind of sleepwalk through PVP anymore. So yeah, looking forward to 3.0. 🙂 ---

Exactly, if you can’t beat 'em join 'em! With that being said i’m still for changes. New traits, spells, BD, etc. Anything to bring some freshness to pvp. ---
