But he’s so squishy! (Psion).  
No immunity, no armor, no respawn…

Probably still Famine but Fizzbang and Plague are a very close second. Psion doesn’t really bother me Dust Devil makes him pretty useless. Using a non looping team deals with Mab. Impervious makes Kraken almost useless and Krystenax makes all trolls completely useless

Agreed with psion. First battle in guild wars today and i get the dreaded team headed by psion. Stuck in dust devil on my mono colour team and after my first move, psion is no longer an issue, comfortable win 👍

Honestly, somehow I feel like Keghammer is, in a way, more insane than Ferit…

Yea, but ya gotta love David, he may have a short fuse, but he has large ambitions.

Back to the topic on hand, As an end game player, As any troop is beatable, it’s the grief troops that are the least fun. Ragnagord, Spirit fox, and even Siren are all solid troops making it easier to fill up the enemy team’s mana before your own.

Famine, because he’s the guy when you are ready to crush the AI, who said “no, no, you _start again the battle_ with 0 mana to your troops”…

2nd Psion, he should not steal mana. Drain mana is already enough good for a skull trigger trait…

So maybe OP, you could open a poll so we can then choose which troops we are going to put in the nerf train 🙂 . Yeah I’m missing the nerf topics…

This is a hard one for me. Ultimately, I think I’d have to say Psion b/c of his ability to fundamentally alter the trajectory of the game with a single sky drop of a skull 3-match. In GW, where teams are slower b/c of color overlap, the Steal is brutal. It almost always then fills him for a follow-up AoE drain. It’s basically a hard reset of all your progress with one lucky 3-match.

Runners-up medals go to EK/Kryst/TDS for being blatantly OP super-well-rounded troops that do too much too well, and to Mab for the fact that a single 4-match in GW is effectively a full team Freeze, which is really obnoxious.

Ragnalord since I like to use soul of xanthoes to steal mana. Psion, famine and infernus all of 15+ mana so I cast, drain them and cast on the next one. Ragnalord has only 13 meaning I cast then need to refill to cast again, making it more a calculated risk.

Forest troll for same reason as above.

TDS because it either dies first hit or gets 5 respawns and the board drops extra turns after he casts… stupid I do everything troop.

I’m changing my answer to Fizzbang. My first GW loss in a couple of weeks was because of her.

Hm, interesting! I think that makes the character quite effective, then. It’s like her annoyance is created from the fact of having to continue doing battles around the same premises (her wanting something new _all_ the time); and that repetition in itself adds to her character. 😉
