Skytank 8.79D

Is it just me or is sky tank being used less and less?For other options like heavy goblin hunter demon and earth?

Hum I don't think so. Sky tank wasn't used really often before but I still see it used some times.
In another hand demon seems to be a lot played those times, I see it in almost 1 out of 2 games. Maybe the last ulti change made it more popular, and as a consequence : demon prevents you to play sky tank.

Actually sky tank can do alot of damage to deamon because its a ground tank, sky is a very good tank vs ground tanks, maybe more so then deamon is vs air.

I don't useally use it but I have had some extremly good games with it, espacially with bombs vs 5 ground opponents, such games are not common but sky is so strong in that type of games.

if team will buy nets so sky tank with bombs will lose

Last time I saw a guy playing this way : sky + bombs I just got nets + double axes. He fed me since then.

IMHO Sky Tank is one of the strongest tank to fight creep masses (e.g. ghost/heavy with troops/mortars) but i never see people using it that way.

I actually only know two guys playing Sky Tank often - one is mid only mass LR type stuck with air tanks (scout -> heli -> air shit -> sky tank..) and the other one is foellix playing it tank killer style and depending on the enemy with or without bombs (are there net using players in game, do all players have ground, are there late sky fotress players, etc. - the type of player actually thinking about the game situation and participating players).

But i almost never saw someone playing it vs mass troops but most air ship players are not even saving there ulti to kill enemy players troop+mortar fast

P.S.: it is also i nice counter vs static guards - damn i hate those sky tanks

Agree some players show no urgency to kill creeps mortars etc.....and waste ulti on creeps.

Well sky tank need skills to be played well. That also explains why it's not used often anymore. As you say eSVau, "the type of player actually thinking about the game situation" : requires some skill ^^
The only times I play it I just don't know what to do and don't use it well.

The problem is that Sky Tank is too expensive; It has firepower similar to Heavy Tank (5500 gold), while it's price is huge (8000 gold), and it lacks stun. It is definitely much weaker than Demon (10,000 gold).

IMO - it would be a good idea to slightly decrease it's price, perhaps to 7500 gold and see if more people use it.

It got alot more firepower then the heavy tank, it is pretty weak 1 vs 1 but dominantes in 5 vs 5 espacially then the 5 opponents are all ground.

It also is the tank with the best mobility, heavy tank is slow.
Deamon is slower and weaker in team situation then sky in my opinion.

Sky, Hunter combo is very strong.

Indeed, Sky + Hunter with double orbital is pure terror.

Sky is also one of the best harrasment tank due to its speed, it can pretty easly outmanouver defenders and its abilities do damage to both buildings and creeps
