Worst Race

 Crow is the worst race, period. XD Everyone that thinks otherwise must have serious mental problems... even the average rat is better than crow...

And why is weasel bad? o_O You can mass skiffs, and leaders are strong as well, right?

[~>John<~]

 Well now, I change. Crow is the worst, but you can still do well as minuses can be overcome easily with certain strats

Perhaps weasel would be bad for rat-massing strats? Just a thought...

[Ashyra Nightwing]

 Yep, a weasel is hard to successfully rat-mass with ...

[Devari]

 Strangely enough. I'm better with Weasel than Wolf.


On-topic, Rat. Not crow, for the reason Juby stated. :D

Plus that awful Raven/Wolf deficit.

That's like saying that Switzerland is a better country than the U.S. because it's less crowded.  I'm judging the races overall.  Weasels may be worse at massing rats than crows (somehow), but weasels can do lot of other things better than crow.  Judging the races by the strat that you use is closeminded.  Judging a race by the strat that works best with it is one way of doing it.  Example: Marten may have a lot of negative sides but you can do very well if you use them to make money with leaders, and buy troops at a discounted price.  It's just that calling weasels are the worst race just beause they can't mass rats doesn't make sense to me.

Just using your example to show how I'm thinking, Sarah.  I'm pretty sure that you knew that I wasn't trying to dis your suggestion or anything. ^_^

[Random Thought]

 i'm going to have to say crow

[Devari]

 Whoops. Meant to say leaders.

BTW, rat-massing is fine with Weasels. I had over 10 million two eras ago.

Weasel is as good for leader-loot as most races.

I'd rank the races:

1. Wolf
2. Weasel
3. Wildcat
4. Marten

In terms of leader playing. Marten leader deficit == Steal-o-rama. :D

 Weasel is by far not the worst race out there. Has anyone seen my banner? I was the winner of the hacked era, even though I got robbed and it was very close, I still won that era. And what race was I? I was a weasel. That's right, I won that round with a weasel. Weasel is not the best race but is the best remmedy for getting around wildcats which is arguably the best race out there on turbo now that the black market is disabled. Crow is absolutely the worst race. It has nearly all negative skills and it has no leaders ability. It may perhaps, as juby said, be feared because that could be an awsome player but that race is still bad.

 plus, in this test you have to judge it on it's own without the response of other players.

Very true. The title is not "which race inspires the most fear". It's which is the worst race.

[~>John<~]

 And so its crow :)

Though some could be deemed worse based on the what the majority of players were using if we were allowed to include the response

[Devari]

 Still think Rat... That much of a leader deficit sucketh.

Weasel is one of the best races - for me.

Then again, I play reg, not turbo.

[Random Thought]

 i think rat and crow are pretty equally bad, unless you're going to get a stockpile of cash on lottery tickets  :huh:
