** "Tomb of the Dragon King" from the original release is a less extreme example. Dragons usually show up as lone threats or in small groups, so having them turn up as entire recurring waves of enemies every so often – and moreover, continue to do so again and again until you complete the mission – is a major challenge. Walls of Wizard Towers, Ballista Towers, and even Guardhouses in a pinch are basically a requirement, and if you choose to use Gnomes instead of Dwarves just for their rebuilding abilities, you can't even use the Ballista Towers.

The two entries arguing against each other in Game Breaker looked terrible, but neither was exactly wrong. I retooled these entries into Complacent Gaming Syndrome (as they mostly are about the fanbase always choosing the old reliable options), trying to preserve arguments from both sides. I also reformatted the rest of Game Breaker entries and added missing context for Paladins.
* ComplacentGamingSyndrome: Of the mutually exclusive faction choices, one is generally considered as obviously preferable by a large chunk of players.

** Dwarves are usually chosen over elves and gnomes because they provide ballista towers (see their GameBreaker entry for details). Gnomes are a more situational choice, since they aren't helpful in combating monsters (unless until their MagikarpPower kicks in), but can be mandatory on the absolute hardest settings for simply keeping your town alive through early game. As for elves, their economic bonus can bankroll endless spell spam, but their downsides need to be managed.

They're tougher than guardhouses, are capable of dealing actual damage with their bolts, don't increase in cost like guardhouses do, and also don't require research to get working.

** In general, balancing of the mutually exclusive factions is really skewed, with one being a GameBreaker and the others being average.

Same thing with Dauros/Agrela vs. Fervus/Krypta; nine times out of ten, you'll be picking the former, for no other reason than because [[LightningBruiser paladins]] are vastly superior to [[TooDumbToLive warriors of discord]], as mentioned above, and the heal/resurrection spells are cheaper.
