hope this results will shed some light on dmg usefullnes

Let the Comment wars begin!

If you want to use damage go ahead and use damage, we have explained countless times why range is always better than damage. Feel free to take your damage build into the champions era, let me know how you do there.

here are some little nice graph to show u how "useful" damage is



this is the losses in resources (metal + oil in total) when probuild vs cheap build, the percentage is how many units the enemy has compare to ur own.

You can see probuild lose less than cheap build UNLESS you have nearly as much as units as the enemy. However as Korupt said at least countless time already, if you attack ur enemy with nearly equal amount of troops, u're doing something wrong.

Unless it's the first 100 ticks, but not more.

Plus, probuild doesn't lose any units if you outnumbered the enemy with 3x the amount of units he has.

This really show how "useful" damage is

EDIT: the resources are based on [10 squads = 100%]

cool graph man !! (strange avatar btw)

as i said i was not promoting dmg here,seem i was not very clear..
