is that a kind of cheating
sell towers and rebuild so that the units going from one side to the other and back i had a few guys, so that the units never reach the castle and lots of units in the field because they cant destroy them. 1ted, kriterium CASPER ,guizahorde made this in game thats not fair play my mind

Why would it be a cheat? Berserk's aim is to discourage this and when the units got out from the circle, then because of the bonus they are probably destroying the castle. It can't be done with more than 1 wave (especially against waves with different speed).
On the other hand it shows that you are pretty good. It is an all or nothing tactics.

My thought exactly for a very long time, used the the varying units / speed tactic without fail untill I got up against this one bloke.... (i mentionned all this few weeks ago allready).

He did this juggling thing a hell lot more efficient than any other juggler i've met.
On the warcirlce map he led a wave from the very end (stairs leading to the castle) up the northern stairs back into his first row of towers with only rebuilding 1 tower, with a decent lenght maze....
When noticing and paying attention to, I've seen him rerouting my wave(s) to join the succesive wave on regular basis (or on "neccessary bassiss" more likely)
Even varying waves with units up to Stanleys proved pretty ineffective.
Stanleys with or without bards, zooms with bards etc....
Occasionally a lonely ranger would slip trough while the jugs tower got rebuild. Seemingly Controlled leaks like scattered waves (and a veteran kampfgrüppe) with too many rounds on the "jugglers caurosel", suffering from terminal motion sickness managed to trow up against the castle wall once before dropping dead....(mostly zooms).

The entire game went on and on like that (way too long)

My huge headstart, gained advantage, etc... all for naught as the juggler's circusact rendered so called "countermeasures" like BRSRK (+ castle invulnerability) and "limited / timed towers selling" ineffective.
Inevitable, his waves sipped trough with max barrack ups,
my buffed up units were running laps like mad (get it? berserked)
and finally those few moments between the castle buffs from my berserkers, got big enough a timegap for scheduled castledemolishing.

Juggled to death Slowly but surely

Is it cheating if you have the option to do the exact same strategy in return?

Not in my mind. They didn't hack anything, they played the game as it was designed. Don't call it cheat just because you can't do it as well as others.

The only thing not fair in this game is dodging better players then yourself.
Especially when you are a top ranked player.

Agreed!

juggling is cheating in the sense you are exploiting a unintented side effect of the game. Its not the palyer fault for exploiting it but the dev should close this hole down tight. Simple fix is you berserk units = ennemy castle back to 100%. At least you wont be able to win using this cheesy tactic.

On the other hand sometimes it happens you berserk some units be mistake (eg closing the path, then selling the missplaced tower (after a few sec) and rebersek them again). In this case the current bonuses are still a big punishment. Healing others castle is simple too strong punishment. By the way I thing the current behavior is good.

How can we say that juggling is an unintended part of the game. Did you come up with the concept of the game and deem it to be a cheat? What you find is that when juggling is used different units are also used to counter it.

As far as I'm concerned its a good strategy and I'm surprised it's not used a lot more.
