Capturing with barriers? - greatbero - 12-18-2012 02:57 PM
I was surprised that you can capture a Wit space with barriers created by Bramble. To make a barrier on it when it's already captured OK, but to capture it with barrier is, in my opinion, something that should not be possible.
The reason: killing/destroying barriers doesn't give you Wits.
If you capture a Wit space with any other unit, you expose that unit to being killed and therefore to giving one bonus Wit to your enemy. If you capture a Wit space with barrier, you are not exposed to this risk as destroying a barrier doesn't give Wits.
Therefore I think the option to capture a Wit space with barrier is not in line with the philosophy of the rest of the game and should be removed. Alternatively barriers should give one bonus Wit when destroyed.
What do you think?

Well Bramble really really sucks right now though.

Its really the only thing that bramble has going for it at higher levels.(I cant say for sure though as i just got to Gifted xD) but i think that would be an uneeded nerf.

It's practically the only use of the bramble right now

Can you imagine how terrible Bramble would be if his vines had a Wit/Kill mechanic? Killed a parent? Gain 2 Wits. Killed Bramble? Win the game.

If you think Bramble sucks, you really should try a match with Alvendor. I think he is one of the best veggie players now

I think we don't know yet how to use it properly... However, I prefer the others speciale nd think it should be buffed...

I think it's fine. When I see my opponent spending so many wits just to capture my wit space with thorns, I just go kill his/her base.

It's true! Alvendor crushed me with effective brambles.
