Default Re: possible anti SC strategy

It's better to kill SCs than to afflict them. Many SCs are item-based, and if you afflict them the opponent can make a new SC and transfer all the items over, which is much cheaper than making one from scratch (especially if the SC is using uniques).

but the whole idea is that these guys are supposed to die, their job is to make it so that when you send something to take out the SC then their job will be a whole lot easier. because as long as when you actually take it out then you have lost about 10 gems while your opponent has lost at least 40 (GORed tartarian)

Horror marking SCs is hot stuff. I do it every single game if possible, but it seems a few patches ago they toned down the power of horror mark, so it can take a little while for one of the big baddies to show up.
