I had a game where 2-3 infernals tried that.
We stooped every last one of them and repaired everything each time. They were never able to get more than 7% of buildings per runs, and it took less than a minute to repair nearly everything. After 10 minutes, we had farmed so much on them they tried something else, and failed.
The trick? Upgrade armor (more HP for creeps and buildings), and repair. Mech bots can whistand about one full infernal rain when at 20+ armor, and can repair themselves. Of course, you also have to get someone inside to stun infernals right after they start their ultimate. Easy stuff since that attack is very predictable, you just have to wait for the first drop of green stuff. SO we had one tinker on repair duty, about 5-10 mechs inside base at all times, and two guys stunning. 3v4, and they never were able to dent our base with that tactic.
Have they tried to focus on a single building at a time, we would have lost.
The game was long, but in the end we prevailed. Try it out next time.
