Round table

In my opinion, the quality of the Rampart and Barbarian towns is incomparable, of course in favor of the former. Dirty wrote some April Fools' humor. Bears are good exclusively against neutrals, and even then they are probably the most useless units after Skeletons. The breakthrough power of a GR behemoth (without army support) is roughly equal to the breakthrough power of an Angel, while Gold dragons already outclass them. In FB they are dangerous if you have a very large number of them. For example, when you see a scout hero heading to GD, the whole question is how to neutralize him. When you see a scout hero sped up on a Behemoth, well... I've just never seen such a thing. And implanting Gold dragons at all? First, there might be Orb and Resurrection, and second, implanting Gold dragons is an extremely weak move in FB. Well, after the implant, mass Slow in response and a rush in two rounds, you kill everyone except the bears, and then Blind them — that's a perfectly realistic scenario.

Don't you dare teach me how to run finals. I do know a thing or two about that. Upgraded bears are the strongest level 7 unit, which destroys anyone when equal in numbers (remember how VLK lost money to Medium). You can tell someone else about rushes in two rounds. Every situation is individual; you can't reason like that here. Besides, in Full VT, Earth magic is not always upgraded.
You say that Gold dragons are strong when there are many of them. And how many is many? If you have 2 external dwellings, then by the second week you'll have 8 of them. 8*250=2000 with Jebus Cross development — that's a matter of one Implosion. And how many resources do you need to spend to build and upgrade them (considering that the upgrade is only possible on 122)? When building Gold dragons, your strike stacks will only be Wyverns and Angels; you can forget about the rest of the meat, unless of course the external dwellings provide more.

Besides bears, Tyraxor also has Wolves with insane damage (especially at two Swords) and the same Angels/Wyverns, so the army is potentially stronger.

I did have a laugh about a scout hero on a Behemoth, thanks :D :D :D

You always know how to play best in any situation. So I don't want to argue, because it's pointless. I don't even understand why you brought up this topic about Barbarians if you know everything better than everyone :)
