i think 2 bil is exaggerated just fyi someone can dig through old ARR threads but at the time I remember the number that came out being like maybe 1.1 or 1.2. definitely still expensive but not quite that bad - stop scaring people!!! /lh

idk i just have never heard a single whisper of earth asking another flight for any sort of competition and while they may all say "no thank you" i think it would behoove them first to try before saying it is impossible. that's all. like, why not?

you may very well be right but i really respect flights that are willing to try wacky shit regardless of the asterisks involved lol. i think it's good for the community.

That's the thing, as someone in Earth I feel like its impolite for our team to challenge another flight. It's very much a pick on someone your own size sort of deal, you know? A challenge from Earth feels like bullying to me

thats silly. nobody is making the other flight say yes. it might be a little bit awkward but you have to ask

Now I'm wondering if a 2v1 fight could be possible. Would it be helpful to have a second flight leveling and funneling dragons to the first?

Then again, I'm not sure any exalters would put in Battle amounts of effort to not place on the board at all.

I mean, it wasn't a fight but there was that push where Earth "catapulted" Shadow to the top of the dom board by funneling them levels so it wouldn't be unheard of

AYRT
I can believe the numbers were inflated!

However, my own flight doesn't even have 1b in our war chest so I know we still couldn't try. I imagine since Earth's team is now more conscious of the power of raw treasure the next flight to try and take them will be spending even more than Water did, too.

NAYRT tbh a huge factor in spending more is hibdens. as everyone gets more hibden slots everyone will store up more fodder for battles and the price will increase as we go on.

it's true, hibdens changed the game completely

Light had a billion locked and loaded for LvA and didn't even spend half of it, meanwhile Arcane ran out of money. The power of currency should never be underestimated by any competent dom team - starving the opposition out of money is an entirely valid tactic.

i continue to be baffled as to why that matchup ever happened. it's worse than ice and shadow.

I don't think Light understood it either, it was Arcane's idea lmao

As someone from arcane I don’t even understand it, I know people here that also don’t lmao
