This is the longest game I've had since the ver got changed to 8.79, it actually reveals several problems with the current late game which I would like to address as well. (along with having more money than I could spend lol)
Simply put I don't think there is any build that is superior to Titan - 4x supercell - speed pack - negator. The game kinda turns into a contest of using your skills effectively, but weapons other than super cell are less viable because the dps becomes much less important than range, all that matters is that people die before they have a chance to react or die (almost) instantly after titan ulti is over, and in that regard 4 supercells can accomplish the same thing as 4 swarms, while at the same time costing less and having more range.
As I recall titan was reworked so the late game would be "more diversified," but at the end of the day people are still switching from infernal/sky fortress -->> titan, at around 1:30 mark, because dps becomes so high that titan ulti is the only real way to survive. I think the main problem is that lategame offense is scaled badly compared to defense. A tank can viably hold up to 4 42,000 weapons for a total 168,000 gold in weapons, but only (speed pack (6,000) + negator (~9000) + titan (20000)) about 35,000 in defense. So the only real viable defense against such overwhelming dps is stuff that provides invincibility like titan ulti and negator pack.
