Inferno faction discussion.

I don't know why people criticize the Maniacs so much; in my opinion, they are the best (or at least, on par with Succubi). I always have more of them than any other unit.
As for the dogs, they are truly disappointing.

Who is criticizing them? They are an excellent unit. For the price of 95 gold, we get 23 hit points of biomass, which is used for summoning from the gate. For this role, the Succubus is not a competitor, with its 20 hit points for 105 gold, and the dog is even worse, as we only get a meager 22 hit points for 140 gold. Also, they have the highest growth rate among all Inferno units. Therefore, Maniacs (and their upgrade) are a must-have.
In addition, they are very well suited for the role of negating counterattacks (it is enough to separate a couple (or even one) small stacks for this purpose).
By the way, it is worth noting that they also have the highest morale among all Inferno units, which kind of hints at their usefulness.

In general, for me, the golden combination for Inferno is Maniac-Succubus-Sadist.
