Heavy Discussion

[laYahooz]

Heavies are pretty good units. In a long game I try to have one or two out.

Playing as the veggienauts I often find it viable to spawn a couple of heavies. I mean, no one would spawn 2 flowers so what do you do with all those wits? Well make more roots but I also spawn some treemen. Heavies, in a way, are kind of like another special unit for the veggies since you can do a lot of cool tactics with it. It's very fun to hide a heavy in a garden and then jump out and bring the noise on 3hp soldiers
Also heavies/snipers are the only ways that the veggie's can take out a bombshell. Though you still lose the trade when you do . Learned that in my game vs goHeat3.

Playing feedback I don't spawn a heavy unless I'm in deep shit. I stack up the wits as feedback to always have a constant threat of spawning a scrambler. Also playing against feedback I try to avoid using a heavy.

Playing adorables I will spawn 1 or 2 heavies on large maps. Don't really play the teddy bear team much.

As scallywags I only really spawn a heavy on small maps like glitch. 4hp soldiers are good enough.

So............. I think the heavy is a good unit. It is not as situational as it used to be. Its always good to have one.

Also in 2v2 heavies are really good. Have one player spawn 2 (which is a lot of wits!) and then the other play as backup. My most used opening on machination as p1 is to take my wit space and spawn a heavy.
