Eh? You shouldn't have to ever reconsider the build of your pet team?

To Graven, then you havent really understood what pet battling is about. There is no ultimate team, and you have to adapt yourself to adjust to changing enemies.

The spell hits as hard as some 3 round cooldown abilities (ie Blood in the Water, Nocturnal Strike..), is spammable, and will hit more often than it misses because of its 70% hit chance. So obnoxious to deal with.

And eh, healer teams would be fine if there was a cap on how many turns a game could go before it just ended in a draw. As it is, forming a team that routinely either takes 40+ turns to finish or making someone just quit is a dick move.

Adding draws to the game willl likely not happen. What's the point of having a draw? Do you both get a win point? >> everyone runs with 3 healers.
Does noone get a win point? > Why not just flee then?

Draws will have no added value apart from restoring a bit of your pride :p


It would be nice of having a restriction of only being able to use a pet once a week for pvp. At the moment i'm battling against maybe 20 of the 500-600 pets in the game. Unborn valkyrs, ravens, jademist dancers, anubis, crawdad, death adders, ... Only the strong ones.

I'd love to fight against squirrels and chickens :p

To me, "toxic strategies" means things like taking unnecessarily long turns, or maybe playing the old triple turkey team. Stuff that's designed to waste time rather than win. As long as you're playing to win, there's no difference between playing a healer team and playing anything else.

Well, to most people's minds (mind definitely included), a triple healer team is explicitly designed to win BY WASTING time. I consider those playing triple heals as being... not someone I'd want to spend time with
