Dwarves vs. Academy (Hafiz)

Besides, what prevents you from upgrading your units? Gnomes are often given to players, and you will also have fire arrows, while the Academy player most likely won't (2% chance to attack). If the opponent picks Hafiz, it means they are planning a rush, in which case you don't even need to take magic for the gnome, but instead take machines. Karl is perfect for this, as he can also use ranged attacks.
