Phalanx has much lower HP than a Golem, and lower attack Power than a Peeka. With proper placement and knowledge of the troop AI, Phalanx has the possibility to go an entire match without being destroyed if placed correctly, although will die rather quickly when vulnerable to attacks. He will take 0 damage from the defense he is attacking due to the large shield, but will be vulnerable to other defenses within range.
Seen some similar ideas that were good as well.
Not bad idea, but it seems like having 2 or 3 with some wiz may run the field completely pretty easily if placed correctly.
Obviously this unit would be vulnerable to big bombs so that would cause some issues for the troop.
Now does it go for defense first or just nearest structure, casue that could be issue with OP or UP?
