Since this extraordinary build was first created it has served us well, but as they say: “All good things must come to an end.” Let us reflect upon the prowess of these now obsolete beasts known simply as “Hansels”. Ahhhh, put up a few stables and let the guilds start flying. It’s the start of a beautiful thing: Watching that EB bonus plunder skyrocket as you complete the lowlands in record time, Gloating as your clan rank soars past your clan mates as you put up the next SOS, Laughing hysterically at your farm target that has no idea who is taking his gold, Pinning troops and spies at the same time with those ferocious assassinations, Being the big hero in that OSW strip, Maxing that Volary to level 3. Well, we had a good run. This feared build once made other kingdoms tremble. How many times would a Hansel get attacked on the BL unless it was by another Hansel? Nobody wanted to open up that can of worms. How much did everyone whine in Season 1 of the Estoc Trials about how Hansels are dominating the wars and its not fair? Sadly, the great success of the Hansel in the Estocs ultimately led to its own demise. Suddenly everyone starts building spy towers at all cost. War clans start setting minimum static spy defense of 1 mil. Ok so this seems to balance out the power a little. You can still squeak in a few assassinations and become a mean scouting machine…besides you can still make great plunder off the other Hansels that are warring, right? Oh wait… the other Hansels start putting up attack towers? Uh Oh! Well atleast you can still get those assassinations in on those attack builds. Oh.. errmm.. No they all have 2 mil static spy defense now. Oh and all those Hansels with those attack towers just realized they can’t attack anyone, so they start building up their attack and… Well, you get the point. Don’t get me wrong, Hansels are still very valuable in OSW and a fun build to PVP with. And if you are lucky enough to be 6mil spy attack with huge BFA you still might get some good assassinating in during those EE wars. But unfortunately for the rest of us, that shiny EE equip will be soon out of reach. Pretty soon war clans won’t even let us in. I know you have worked hard on your build for a year or two and put in the effort to put up those spy defense towers and a few attack defense towers. The fact of the matter is that you will never be more than a glorified scouter in EE that can’t hit targets for plunder. So what can be done about it? Do the devs need to re-evaluate? Is the fact that there are barely any assassinations in war and there are NEVER steals part of the games design? Maybe one of those “Save the Whales” campaigns for Hansels? Or is it time to abandon the build you worked so hard for to become one of those creepy towered hybrids? I’ll leave that answer up to you. I’m about 6 beers in so troll if u must. But any assclown that says I’m butthurt.. well that enemy that just perfomed a spy action on you, well, you know the rest of the story.
The hansel mechanics (dtw with 0 gold out) make hansels nearly impossible to KO when they're against attack heavy clans in EE.
Always been in wordwaster. Pure spies and hansels with no gold out are dtw to attack builds. So we are supposed to assassinate these beasts to KO them? 2m spy defense..we ain't getting through that. Ah so we will stick our hybrids and hansels on them! 2m adt..don't think our hansels/hybrids are going to have much luck with that either..
Why would any of those comments stress you out? I said I loved you, but have a crush on Alison, it's just a schoolboy crush, not like I want to run off and start a family with her.
Eric I have been in my room crying for 2 hours straight now because I saw those comments on that thread I'm questioning why we're even together still You originally quit kaw so we could talk on Skype more often but now you're back on here and its upsetting me more
You want me to unfriend and block Alison? You want me to tell her I didn't mean any of those comments? Tell you you're the only girl for me in the world? Plz tell me what to do babe I love u. I only went back to KaW because I didn't think the time we were spending together on Skype had really increased not because I needed other people in my life.
