Game could be great but needs completely new balancing. – Art of War: Red Tides Review

As of Jan22, 2018 this game gets a 1 Star until the developers fix the broken Hailstorm Unit, allowing banning in 1v1, and bring back arena. Was such an awesome game until the balancing issues got horrendously bad. Old Review as of Dec 28th 2017 Hey Redtides Team, I have been playing your game for a while now. I consider myself pretty solid in understanding the game and I enjoy the content and the strategy within the gameplay. I also enjoy you all updating the game frequently. However, these newest updates with additional units you added changed the game mechanics unbelievably. The new Terran unit (Hailstorm) is broken. I have no clue how you guys thought having that much range was fair. I love games like redtides but what is the point of having multiple classes when one beats the other just based off of unit power? And for tips to beat them in your description it says use charge units and try avoiding the rocket barrage. Atlac don’t have charge units and the best advice you give is try avoiding the barrage? The Terran were already super strong and now it’s unbelievable how strong they are. And then you give the hailstorm the ability to attack air as well? Here’s the truth the Yaoguai need huge buffs, the Atlac were strong in speed and resource collection but now has no answer to Hailstorms, and the Terran have always been strong and now they are even stronger with only one unit. Really the Terran already had the longest range in the game with siege tanks, how are you going to give them another longer range unit? I appreciate your constant updating the game but please do consider the balance of the game when you do. I am at the point now where I don’t even want to play 1v1 anymore unless I use the best units because I know that’s how you win (meaning using the Hailstorms). It barely has anything to do with Strategy now. Going forward how are you as a team going to keep this game balanced and actually have it deal with skill not just spamming two units with one of them being the Hailstorms?
