Im wondering, is this where the baergoff's pelts come from? Since a 3 year old killing a bear would be probably their first kill?

No

Baergoff do it bare handed. That's the important bit

We made the change because we didn't like how powerful roads were. If we brought them back to 2*, something else about them would get nerfed.

Rip. Wish I had been involved in the debate back then.

I can definitely understand how 2.5 would be more balanced in optimized/comp matches. I just uh.. don’t really ever play those.

Thanks for jumping into this thread.

Ultimately, we changed the Tridention's role in your army. They're no longer speedy coastal harassment, but now mop up units.

They're meant to be deployed with Jellies and Sharks who can whittle down enemies for them to snuff out.

Not saying that they’re bad. I just don’t think they’re anywhere close as fun to play with.

I said this in an earlier comment, but I don’t think Tridention need to be brought back to exactly how they were. I think their current dmg stat is too low, and I also wish they could have their old kit back. BUT, I don’t think they need their old kit and their old damage stat. I don’t even think they need their old kit and their old movement.

Edit: I have two headcanons on how Tridention could be fixed:

Old kit rework:

Star cost: 8 (but I mean.. I wouldn’t mind if they balanced them by making the star cost 10 or 12 in addition to other changes. It would fit with the vibe of the Tridention too)

Abilities - Escape, Dash

Health - 10 (or maybe 8)

Attack - 2.5 (or maybe even 2)

Defense - 1

Movement - 1 (though maybe if the other changes make em too weak, I’d happily push it up to 2)

Range - 2

New k...

During testing, we had their damage up to 3.

And then got an overwhelming response from the fans to nerf it to 2.5.

Being a lore junkie myself, this was very much appreciated. Looking forward to more installments given the channels' comment replies.

Glad to know that you liked it! We liked making it!

What you posted has been removed because it wasn't very nice. Yeah, it might have been related to Polytopia, but there's a difference between "playful banter" and "just being mean." We don't like when people insult other Redditors, groups of people, or anyone, for that matter.

If you think this was in error, contact a moderator.

Thay hoodie has been discontinued, and has been for a while.

I own one, it's not great. The newer one is far better.

We've shown it in a few lore blurbs that each unit is a battalion of indeterminate size.

I like to imagine they're actually a small squad of troops just represented by a single unit except for big ones like giants, ships and dragons. That's the same logic I give for chess pieces. No way in hell a queen just has magic powers of rook and bishop the same way a defender is guarding a whole ass city

And you're right! That's the canon explanation.

Step 1: don't play Drylands

Step 2: don't play online

Problem solved. :P

I'm just curious man. I haven't checked the game in a while and I remember there was long gaps between updates since yall are a small studio. I was wondering if it was actually realistic.

The updates have definitely been coming out much faster over the past few years. :)

We literally released a big update a few weeks ago.
