[Serious Discussion]Why I Hate the Royal Giant

1. Extremely easy to overlevel. Okay lets look at the numbers. Royal Giant is a common. You can request 40 commons every 7 hours, so around 120 Royal Giants every day if you're good with your requests. To get him to level 11 requires 2586 cards which is 65 requests, or 22 days. Then to level 12 needs 2000 more cards which is another 50 requests, or 17 days. In total, its a little over a month, which isn't that long. Most royal giant players consistently request him over and over again, so cards aren't a problem. Compare this, to say, the Giant. He is a rare and only 4 rare cards can be requested so around 12 cards a day. The equivalent of a level 11 common is a level 9 rare. This is 786 cards, or 197 requests which is even longer than to get an RG to level 12. Clearly, commons are way too easy to overlevel, and RG is a common. Proposed change: Make RG rare, and give back the equivalent rare cards. 2. Extremely easy to use. IMO cards should at least be semi difficult to use. This guy is not. Just spend the few weeks to get him to level 11. Start off the game by plopping him down at the bridge, having him move one of his bigass feet forward and start dropping his shit on your tower. Opponent counters with Inferno? No problem. Next time surround ur cannon wielding bigfoot with barechested men or flying horned thingies. Still a problem? Get them to use their Fire laser beams of death with your African American Pig Rider, then plop your portable cannon wielder down. See what I mean? And its even worse when you lose, because you know for a fact that 90% of the time you lose to RG its not a skill difference, it's a card difference.

BTW there's a lot more, I'm just lazy.
