Special Unit Balance

RE: Special Unit Balance
Alvendor and I played 6 games, and I won 1 of them. As we played I felt like his play sharpened a lot, and by the end I was pretty intimidated. Here is probably the best replay.

I played against Alvendor with the assumption that if I stalled long enough, I'd be able to eventually win. But this doesn't seem to be the case against a very good player, who can find relevant cracks in defense. If I were to play him again today, I'd start placing my bombshells more aggressively.

In the end, he agreed that Bombshells are probably the strongest unit. But he also made his point that the differences between the units are slimmer than I thought. As skill increases from the bottom of Super Titan to the top, it seems like aggressive tactics get better and better, while defensive tactics stay largely the same. So in my matchmaking games, my turtle strats crushed the local competition, but they might not be viable at the highest echelon of play.

Maybe Alvendor can chime in.
