Our usage of them old guys is soo different. I use charges all the time like paladins while you like using them more as a shield wall.

Interesting, I also use them in the same manner as I use Paladins - I do use the charge but I get most of my raw damage in the formation. They can't use last stand out of formation and lose their CC immunity if you move them so I tend to default to that. I really do need to branch them out a bit.

Greyhair's are a unit that filled a much needed role and I'm glad they made them. Seen a few folks complaining about that unit but I don't think people actually know how to use them. I hope folks realize that timing the 1 and 2 skills are much needed. That charge skill is alos beast too. I don't use the wedge formation either but was able to destroy an advancing Imp unit with a side charge.

They are indeed tricky to use, you gotta use your CC immunity when they could be knocked, gotta use the charge when faced with solid units, gotta use the 1 strike when fighting loosies - a bit of game knowledge goes a LONG way with this unit. I love them :)

@@KnightStalker yea a pike aint beating a full melee hero one on one, but that is not how they are used, pikes, due to the teleporting, are unbeatable vs half injured heroes, as soon as they see someone who has taken damage they are like a Federation starship - warp in, fire phasers and photon torpedoes to finish them off, warp straight back out, then beam back to starbase to heal up. Its getting to the stage now where at three quarters health you are forced to pull your hero back to heal, as you know if you get down to half, a pike will beam in like a vulture and finish you off.

They failed to react properly when their team was pushing thru the back way. Rest of the team outside the main gate shouldve noticed it and come through when it started. Def should have cut off our supply point too, leaving us unable to rearm ranged units and heal troops because then its only a matter of time

Yeah so they melt stalwarts, berserkers, heroes, and probably most other units. Just how are they balanced(genuine question, i don't have them yet)? Are they vulnerable to ranged with only 1 row of shields? I would love if you did more casual chats about the state of the game where you discuss new units etc, not necessarily bound to any specific gameplay
@Debbiebabe69

ride them down from behind with cavalry. force out thier anti-cc ability with a fake attack, then stun the shield guys and feast on them with infantry/range walk into them with stalwarts/pikemilitia etc. and brace. Like almost all new units, they design them to counter the current meta. Hence there are SO many units in the last couple of seasons that are anti-cav, anti-stalwart, anti-maul - and now, anti-berserker. Look to other units.

Palace guard if played correctly utterly destroy them, stalwarts will chew them up if you don't hero support them, they don't tend to like guns very much but arrows don't bother them. Anything that catches them without CC immunity will knock them down and see them dead. Pike guard flatten them if done right, Fortes make a mess of them too if you don't get in close asap. Azaps are dangerous to them, Mauls and Muskets are their bane. Overwhelming them certainly helps but lower tier units will generally get shredded. Lots of block break will do them in too. They are not by any means OP, they are brilliantly balanced because of their mixed weapon type but not super strong in any one area.

If you are a tank longsword, just ignore the pikes. Honestly. They cant do enough damage to you for it to matter - you'll see it in my gameplay, they are last priority. (Very different if you arent tanking, they hurt). They thing counting against the greyhair CC immunity is that they cannot move while doing it - take a step back and go around them :)
