totally drained dragon?

[grigri9]

I was playing a mage-bomber who had enough pyro's on the feild to totally drain his dragon meaning it had 0 attack power. He attacked my frostie with his dragon and was able to break it's focus. That seems a little odd to me, since the dragon is doing 0 damage I don't see why it should be able to break my frosties focus. Also, I'm assuming that it can destroy shrubs and break other units focus also if someone could confirm or deny this I'd appreciate it.

Does destroy shrubs (says so on the main page, waaaay down. Update was early March I think? before then shrubs had 10 HP)

Does break focus of anything.

Basically it's like someone running up to your Frosty and poking him in the side. Doesn't hurt, but still breaks concentration (i.e. focus). In the Dragon's case, maybe it's like a loud burp or something ;)

The frosty doesn't know the dragon is drained.

I think the dragon just yells really loud, "Hey, daddy, look what I can do!" Then does something dumb like jumps on 1 foot. It's enough to break my focus when my 3 year old does it and I'm in the middle of a game.

LMFAO. dam that is funny. hop on 1 foot.

it doesn't matter if the dragon has a atk or not. i f it atks any monsters with focus it breaks focus as does all the other monsters.

they should fix that. It's just not right.

There's nothing to fix, it's by design, any attack breaks focus, damage does not have to be dealt. Only two unit interactions don't break focus, healing and barriers.

You want to see totally drained dragon? There's a way to make them deal 0 damage when there ISN'T a DSM on the field

....how...?

[Cavour]

How you ask?










I dunno... He hacks? :D

[LondonJack]

I'm guessing the DSM is cloacked by the magic of photoshop, that rectangle in the right half of the field backs me up on that :p

I wonder how he did it.... I can't see any traces of photoshop...

[themanhere10]

I see were Photoshop was used. Its on the bottom middle.

[drakonfire]

back to the original topic of this thread, any attack should break focus, i mean honestly, if ur concentrating and this big dragon comes over and opens its mouth as if to fry u, ur gonna flinch, i dont care if u have nerves of steel, no way u wouldnt flinch



as to tyhe photoshop, i'm on a screen far to dark to tell... so i cant offer an opinion

[tri-Ace]

I can definately see traces of photoshop to cut out a unit (like a DSM). My monitor's brightness has been turned up to see and it seems that he took a blank section of ground from the mid-bottom and pasted it over his DSM which would be a little to the right. If you look hard enough, you can see small texture redundancies, and a MAJOR vertical line where the left half is dark, and the right half is lighter.
EDIT: This has been verified to have the same thing done to both screenshots.

Well, at least my pictures shot 50/50..... the rest of you were STILL WRONG!!!!! IT WAS PAINT, NOT PHOTOSHOP!!!:p


I don't think the dragon should break the BW focus or the frost golem focus according to drakonfire's theory because golems and contraptions don't flinch..... but enchantresses do ;)
