1 funnyweb has terrible scaling. a single funnel is not a big threat and can be taken out by many regular ground units. once you hit 2,3 there are so many drones that they chew through approaching units faster than they can approach. 1 funnyweb has terrible scaling. a single funnel is not a big threat and can be taken out by many regular ground units. once you hit 2,3 there are so many drones that they chew through approaching units faster than they can approach.

3 drones are essentially a riot weapon with artillery range. there are no units that can survive being attacked by a drone cluster from 4+ funnels, so the only options are those that can reliably stay out of range, which arent many. 3 drones are essentially a riot weapon with artillery range. there are no units that can survive being attacked by a drone cluster from 4+ funnels, so the only options are those that can reliably stay out of range, which arent many.

5 to shut down the drones entirely, you need more aa as one would normally build to counter air units, and this costs a lot of metal - and eventually even the aa will succumb to the drones. 5 to shut down the drones entirely, you need more aa as one would normally build to counter air units, and this costs a lot of metal - and eventually even the aa will succumb to the drones.

7 imo just a bad unit overall. very weak when first built, unstoppable when you invest about a dets' worth. would be much better if drones would cost metal as was proposed, and it had a real weapon to make a single funnel useful. with drones draining metal there would be a real tradeoff to the immense power of drone spam. 7 imo just a bad unit overall. very weak when first built, unstoppable when you invest about a dets' worth. would be much better if drones would cost metal as was proposed, and it had a real weapon to make a single funnel useful. with drones draining metal there would be a real tradeoff to the immense power of drone spam.

9 watch the replay that @[GBC]1v0ry_k1ng linked, its a good example of whats wrong with it. look at how many razors we made in southwest corner only to counter drones and they still grinded through them. only way to get rid off the funnels eventually was to make silo and emp them, because nothing else works. 9 watch the replay that @[GBC]1v0ry_k1ng linked, its a good example of whats wrong with it. look at how many razors we made in southwest corner only to counter drones and they still grinded through them. only way to get rid off the funnels eventually was to make silo and emp them, because nothing else works.

11 [quote]funnel is alright at sensible density[/quote]

13 not really, because at normal density you make like 1, and then it sucks.
