The Cuman Kipchak - An Analysis

Bracer would be a huge change.

I’m not necessarily against it, in fact I’d love to see them get it to see how it’d play out in games. It’s just drastic, as others have pointed out. However, after seeing how the new Kipchak plays out in some pro games, and contrary to my earlier statement that the Kipchak is near perfectly balanced, the Kipchak could use the extra range for sure, and damage would help.

Cumans still need an additional buff. We start playing them, they do feel close to being balanced properly. But close, not perfect. I’m hoping for some in the April update. They do better than most other Archer units against the counter, Elite skirmisher, which is a bonus, but otherwise they’re still lacking.

In levels of severity, here are ideas:

  1. Give Cumans Bracer. Very strong buff to the late game.
  2. Give all Kipchak +1 damage, and Elite Kipchak +1 range. This could work.
  3. Give all Kipchak an additional 5HP - 10HP.
