Turtling Discussion

RE: Turtling Discussion
I am saddened but not surprised to find that some players are quote “disgusted” with turtling or “hate” rushers, or runner spammers, such reactions seem excessive to say the least, and personally I like the challenge of facing a variety of strategies and unless there is something genuinely broken, I am just as happy to play a 30+ turn game of turtling attrition as any other as long as I get variety, which I certainly have so far.

On the subject of Turtling it seems to me that in most games it can generally only get to this stage if both players adopt a strategy of building up their forces prior to making an attack, for instance it was mentioned earlier that a player used 3 Mobi’s to break a defence, this takes some significant wit saving so at the same time would give the opponent time to build their forces to actually have that defence. Also if someone is genuinely just going to defend and counterattack the other player now has the initiative in the game, and should develop their own strategies accordingly.

There is also an inherent problem playing a skilled Adorable’s player with Scallywags as a Mobi attack can be so devastating, therefore if you fail to get the initiative in the early phases without specials you are tactically forced to think defensively because of Mobi, and this can naturally lead to what is described as turtling.

Anyway I would hope we could embrace all players and strategies without such vilification.
