Which phase of AW was the most balanced?

Zee_Reborn

Phase 1: Mystic Wars - mystics and DKs were king along with NC, Spidey, Iceman and AV. You tried to use the most powerful defenders to get the most DKs as possible.

Phase 2: Diversity - DKs were eliminated and diversity was introduced along with other scoring factors to affect the meta. This phase was about having the most diverse defense as possible.

Phase 3: Attack Bonus - DKs were reintroduced in the form of attack bonuses. Diversity was kept and the majority of other scoring methods were dropped. Now, you had to find the balance of diverse and strong defenders.

Phase 3

Can you imagine all DKs counting in seasons?

Phase 1

The first iteration was the best. I'd love to run a week of the original map with it's nodes to see how it would be with the current champs.

Phase 1

Before dorm and mephisto. Then there would be no introduction of blade and continuing that downward spiral of then adding bs defenders to counter him.

Phase 2

Anything before the hyper-competitive atmosphere we have now, with reports of rampant cheating and shady tactics and he said/she said, all the while the nodes in war get harder and harder in an effort to drive revenue. This at the same time that new champions are flooding into the game designed to make you pay for every misstep while attack ratings soar.

Phase 1

Defender kills i miss you so much

World Eater

I miss the old map where all paths weren’t necessary to take down the boss. The new map is designed to keep wars close ; seemingly to increase item use/spending.

None. AW Piloting has dominated high tier AW since the beginning.
