Troops works fine with any tank, so i dont see how it specifically harm ghost or guard that much (even though i know it works for them too), and besides the cost for advanced troop command stays the same, which any ghost, guard would go anyway.
@ perfektionist
I understand your point of view, about it being too cheap but then come with another alternative
My point of view:
What siegepack can do:
-Destroy towers (so can weapons)
-Minor cover
What Troops can do:
-Cover/Conquer Cp
-Give u perfect cover and escape easy
-Do around 1-2k dmg per sec if used effectively
-Help kill base/towers aswell
so i dont see why these 2 items have same cost
But troops are easy to counter. One havy ulti, air tank ulti or thunder and all troops are dead.
right now there's only a few effective ways to counter troops and one of them is to simply buy troops yourself. I repeat i don't dislike troops, but they are way too overused.
-fun fact: in my last 20 games the average is 5-6 (104 out of 200) players who buy troops (not adv all)
and no ofcause you usually dont buy troops after 5 min, but that's the same for siegepack. And yes troops might be slow, but i you play with a good range you can outrange your opponent and when he try to approach you they are godlike
