This is trash. Almost every single weakness that is exploited by most offensive forms exists in this, in direct contrast to the Tactical Notes. Avoid it.

And who are you to make these claims? A TAO theorist? A person with the best gun in the world but no bullets to use? Prove your claims. I don't need to prove mine to myself - the ball is in your court.

The proof is visible to anyone who looks at the picture. No more needs to be said.

I am not saying this formation is top notch, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. Unfortunately, essence is very correct. There are many aspects of the setup that can be easily exploited by common formations.

You do not have to be a TAO theorist to comment on a formation. I admit Essence was a bit harsh, and his comment lacked complete information, but its observation was accurate.

For starters, your mud golem is too open to sniping by scout, and you will most likely have to waste a turn making it retreat. Second, there are many ways to attack the cleric, and it will be difficult to control from where. 3rd, your flank is guarded by very soft units which will not last long under pressure, and with no freezing units, you won't be able to stop a knight with back up. Also, the knight position is staggered, which is nice, but it the position of the wall seems to be a little random, and they end up protecting units that would most likely not be primary targets. I hope that clears some things up. We value all entries, but we feel it necessary to deem them worthy honestly, nicely or not.

Its decent. Not great, not awful. Nice to know I'm not the only one who has ever tried a power defense. Change your knight position up a little to give it more coverage.

yeah, power defense is effective when you have a better form. lol so id say scrap the form, keep the strategy.
