Pyros SUCK!!!

[Lone Wolf]

Ok everyone knows this right? Well sure but why? Well because the cleric can heal back all or nearly all of the HP that u burn away with it. So how do greys use it effectivley? After all greys can't use the DSM (see other threads if you are unformiliar with this unit.)

Well the stradegy I have seen them used for most is early attacks on other magikers. while this is useful, it normally results in the pyro being zapped or killed by other meens. also if they don't finish of the target then it is easily healed. So in a bad run they get killed and don't kill anything.

So instead try this, kill the cleric first. If you can save your magikers until after you kill your opponents cleric then your Pyros become infinitly better. Every hit u get on your opponent is there to stay, on a knight this means it will take 2 hits from your knight and an easy arrow shot instead of slogging it out with knights forever trying to get in a hit.

The basic strategy I have seen playing for nearly a month now I suppose, is trade units until the end. If one of your units is your cleric U will win! Well why take the risk of the unit for unit trade?
Attack and retreat is the best way to win. use your Uber blockers (knights, assasins, scouts) to hold back offenders while your magikers attack from behind. Barrier wards are more and more useful when using this strategy. I have a barrier in all my formations, I am not sure why no one likes them.

Yeah, barrier ward definetly helps with pyros, allowing them to safely recover to get in an additional hit, or keep hitting if the opponent's too dumb.

With DSMs I'm sure they'll see more play, but right now all the Gold units kinda push these guys out of the way.

Yes they do, thats why mine make way for the DMW i won and the Barrier Ward.

Pyros suck? That's a fairly harsh subject for a thread... personally I love the lil fire tossing fellas... between them and scouts I'm pretty much happy

[ALF_hates_you]

What?? pyros do not suck! use them effectively and they are great. they have a range of four and do ok damage try 2 pyro combo and a scout they can usually take out almost any unit. and great if you need to take out a lightning ward.

i use all three of my pyros on my legends account

[Lone Wolf]

FOOLS FOOLS I wan't saying they suck if you read the post I said that most people don't use em right. Was I not clear with that?

[ArcPaladinZero]

I read it, it was clear... no reasons to get your panties in a wad. Maybe you shouldn't name your thread "Pyros SUCK!!!" But that's just a suggestion...

[Lone Wolf]

well it got your attention didn't it, kinda like putting a naked woman on the billboard with the liquor bottles covering the important parts

[ArcPaladinZero]

True... I see your point now... why didn't you just name the thread XXX hot naked womenes or something... I'm sure you would have at least 1000 views in less that 5 minutes.

[Omega_Paladin]

He probabley would have been banned too for trying something like that.

You don't have a gold account do you Lone Wolf? If you did you would see that Pyros aren't that good compared to the other units you get. Even when I won a Pyro on the Legends server, I never used it. But I agree with you when you say Pyros are good if you use them right Lone Wolf. If you don't, they suck. You can get lucky and hit 3 units at once, but during that 3 turn waiting period, he can kiss his flame-throwing ass bye-bye. And then people heal once and get the health that they lost back so what was the point? Oh well. Maybe the Dragonspeaker Mage will make a better name for poor ole Pyro.
