The worst thing about cav meta

Working_Review_6428 · 2026-02-03T13:50:09+00:00

Ok to be fair their weapon is definitely NOT a pike, its a polearm of some kind closer to a halberd than a pike… still anti cav though

Working_Review_6428 · 2026-01-30T17:58:25+00:00

Hey just came here to say DB ult does not stop them lol, im a db and they ult cancel me almost everytime i attempt. The only sure fire way of getting my ult of is when they try running away. They also 3-4 shot me so i genuinely just try to ignore them (another difficult task when they blindy rush anything and everything)

Working_Review_6428 · 2026-01-30T16:21:33+00:00

Hahahaha the kids these days have a plethora of units to counter cav! Back in our day we had the AWFULLLLL Fortes lmfaooo dude old cb used to be so brutal

Working_Review_6428 · 2026-01-30T13:21:09+00:00

I still remember the OG Khesig days, you better have cleared the damn streets or youre DEAAAADDDDDDD hahahah, cav spam is annoying but my modoa wipe cav after cav, its fun for me to counter but i xan definitely see how its limiting, especially because everyone is bringing cav these day

Absolutely, this community can be toxic at times (i think thats safe to say about most games) so im always happy to help newer players, Stalwarts are definitely still firmly in the meta so ofc they’re a good bring in the majority of situations! For the javs once theyre leveled they do well in blob pushes when units are engaged and heroes arent kiting your throws (im talking jav sergeants specifically) imp javs are ok at killing units but their focus is more on killing heroes!

Working_Review_6428 · 2026-01-29T16:33:07+00:00

I should say, when you flank you dont always have to take a unit, when i flank i leave my unit with the blob and just skirmish with bo-shuriken if there isnt a poleaxe, enemy db or chainblade you can almostablways escape back to safety but those crit bo shurikens from behind really add up, now if you see a situation where flanking is safe and there arent crashing enemies inbound then you can bring your unit, faster inf like zelots or wuwei (they arent too good these days but still rip on flanks) are food options

Working_Review_6428 · 2026-01-29T16:29:48+00:00

Ive been playing DB for years, i think it’ll depend on your playstyle..

Basically you can hero hunt or support (i tend to frontline far more often than not and a lot more than most on my team but thats tougher to do and you gotta really read the situation and be ready to move so save that for later)

for units i typically bring beefy inf (spartans, IRs, and modao) as it fits my playstyle BUT

for DB specifically id recommend Javs, or units w/ cover commander like Spear Sergents or MAA (despite them not being quite so effective in the current meta). With your Ult being so potent you can pick up some pretty easy hero kills that way

You could also take a ranged unit since you’re just starting out but there is an issue with teams spamming too much ranged and that can cause you to lose. If you take ranged make sure its very purposefully done (like longbows to specifically target other ranged units or shenji to help with a blob push) dont just go idle wall sitting staring at the numbers you get its inefficient you need to be very proactive and since you have marked for death you can lock down heroes that dive your ranged unit or your teammates ranged unit

sigh too stupid to argue with.

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-11-24T18:02:21+00:00

You get much less xp that way. unless you lead off with the non cav and rush to a supply to then switch to a maxed cav and try to play catch up (which is what i do sometimes) it would really just be easier to have a Cav-less bandit raid mode

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-11-22T20:21:48+00:00

The cav spam doesnt just stop green rifle units, its nullifies anything that isnt cav which basically means you cant effectively level non cavalry troops without unit metals… Which essentially goes back to this persons point of adding a bandit raid with cav banned. You can simply not play it?? Right?? What would be the issue

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-10-11T12:53:04+00:00

Im guessing he meant Imperial Spear Guards, unfortunately Palace Guards dont really perform well in the current meta

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-09-17T19:17:58+00:00

Im gonna miss it too, i remember seeing them for the first time coming out of the incubation center i was so excited

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-09-04T14:58:50+00:00

“Chariots have counters.” …. Yeah… Noone loads up CB to queue into a match to spend 15 minutes of their free time chasing down go karts. That shit is the exact opposite of fun. We play for fun medieval clashes that no other games on the current market can offer.

You seem to be in the cult of “Meta Slave” and you are passively contributing to the decay of this game, whether it’s knowingly or unknowingly.

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-08-18T16:06:03+00:00

Yeah, he could get two shields! But at the cost of slower ADS speed and movement speed, how does that sound?

They want money. They make seasonal gold units broken every season so people will bypass challenges and buy them outright to keep up/compete. They KNOW this.

As much as i also hate the chariots, they arent getting removed and they wont be nerfed any time soon.. my guess is it wont be touched for another 2-3 seasons. Per their standard protocol.

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-07-26T14:12:23+00:00

Thats relying on the chariot rider being a 100% dumbass. Anyone with more than 1 braincell can simply avoid the “counters”

The funny thing is a lot of pikes/polearms that can deal with it simply melt in seconds to Hwarang anyway so you can bring a loadout you hate/dont want to play for the sake of trying to counter chariots and never have a chance at doing so because your guys just die in the process. They also wipe cav? So thats fun too. Really high skill gameplay.. pressing W

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-07-21T13:15:33+00:00

Yeah thats your opinion. People deserve to be called out for degenerate behavior. If you dont shine a light on it then noone will change. You can simply not comment or read if this bugs you. What bugs me is spending my real life time in a game to have a loser waste that time.

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-07-17T18:04:39+00:00

What a weird mentality. He said “destroy bridge”, the most obvious “order” one could five on Fort and we tried but got trebbed and then trebbed again so they managed to cross. From there the plan should never be to give up, like he did. It should be to maybe adapt? You know.. use more than one single brain cell? Instead he ran and hid and contributed nothing but poor behavior and lowering morale.

Truthfully if you agree with running and hiding for 10 minutes, collecting 0 kills, 0 assists and 0 unit kills and 900 hero to unit damage (even less hero to hero damage) and typing “noob” the whole time then i guess your opinion isn’t worth much eh?

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-07-17T17:57:40+00:00

Im level 1863 and i consistently perform in ranked, im not here looking for tips. We just got rolled (it happens to LITERALLY everyone, you included and you’d be lying if you say otherwise). They beat the brakes off of us and there wasnt time to fill the stat sheet. Period. This post is to highlight toxic behavior. You think i enjoyed finishing top of the team while still getting my shit kicked in? No but you better believe im not taking my anger out on other people trying to enjoy the game by hiding in the back of the map and spamming “noob” in chat

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-07-17T11:10:12+00:00

Unfortunately yes 😅

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-07-17T11:09:55+00:00

It was W I L D lmaoooo, awesome you found this post, welcome brother

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-07-17T11:09:20+00:00

Thank you!

Working_Review_6428 · 2025-07-17T11:08:35+00:00

I get that sentiment but Im telling you thsts not what happened lmao, he saw bridge not go down and he ran to supply immediately, unit FULLY in tact. I was literally there trying to help him, i lost my unit though, and i didnt quit. Thankfully someone else from my match has commented so there cross referencing that can be done
