Favorite builder?
Posted: Wed Nov 13, 2013 11:47 pm
I'm just very curious to see what's everybody's favorite builder is. I thought it'd be fun to hear the reasoning behind who your favorite builder is, as well as just having something new to talk about on the forums 
so, to be concise about it, tell us who your favorite builder is and explain why :p
Although my name should reveal who my favorite builder is, i'll go ahead and explain why Nature is my favorite builder.
In my opinion I like to consider Nature a very versatile, well rounded builder. I know Nature himself isn't described as a hybrid builder such as Tauren, Morph, etc .. But he still has the ability to maybe be thought of as one. Even if the Nature builder can't support a base on his own, his army of trees can! Spear throwers are a very underestimated base support unit. They have the ability to kill wards and poison the titan while dealing an immense amount of damage!(100base dmg not taking into consideration of the upgraded version of the unit) He's very well equipped to go titan hunting as well, with or without his arc upgrades(Specially with that OP TH). Although if it is an advanced titan player I advice waiting to go hunting until you research your arc upgrades.
In regards to titan hunting although this technique isn't used very often anymore they are also able to fruit trap with their workers!(which should ONLY be done to a VERY inexperienced ID player)
Now onto the basing version of this builder. Depending on how fed the titan is, Nature's basic defensive towers can be weak. But I feel that where Nature makes up for this is his special towers. Opposed to other builder's special towers that are 90g+ Nature's special towers are only 45g each.(with the exception of the spell well tower) These two towers consist of the very cherished aura tree which everybody loves <3 and the spiny protector that can be considerably dangerous. The spell well tower is also good but is not really needed in most situations unless you are being supported and your support is being targeted and harassed very harshly. Heal and frost armor can ameliorate this situation if that's the case but not tremendously. Bloodlust and mana burn isn't really worth the 90g. I'd take an aura tree and spiny or 2spinys over spell well.
Nature is also capable of being able to Wall walk and jump base, which is always fun. Not to mention the Ww Wall walk for trolling titan <:
Your turn now
