Bamboo Appreciation
Upon discovering bamboo can stomp units, I shat myself. I was so.. so elated. I have so much respect and gratitude for bamboo. It ties the Shaolin team together very nicely. It's like The Dude's rug, it just completes everything and makes me feel whole.
This to you, Bamboo, a strategic masterpice with multiple uses, but mostly stomping. Seriously, thank you.
Bamboo acknowledges your concerns and will try to stay out of future opening hands. He also thanks you for the kind words.
The Bamboo abides.
I like Bamboo a lot too. It is rather annoying to damage it with the windblade though.

Yeah I fully expected it to be immune :/
really a bamboo appreciation? it's sad that the best thing about shaolin is an item that does no damage, that YOUR OWN TEAM CAN DAMAGE, and that clogs up ur opening hand...so disappointed with shaolin nd this update by Robot

Yeah? And my parents were so dissapointed with me, but look at me now! A 40+ year old man infatuated with ponies posting jokes on a casual game's forum taking game balance way too seriously.
See? One should never underestimate just how spectacularly one's disappointment can be exceeded way beyond one's most dire suspicions.
At least I don't live in their basement.
(...anymore.)
I like that we have an ensemble cast around here, but I don't know if it's a functional one.

Resistance is futile. You will be ensemblated.
Yeah, I got a double bamboo monk opening hand. And then the next hand was all equipment.

Ahahahaha Writch that is so horrible!
And I've got to say, I really like the extreme flexibility of the bamboo item! Lets count the ways it can be used:
1) 1 way view, blocking enemy line of sight but allowing your own.
2) Range stomp.
3) Item to link a Windblade attack, so you can tag the opponent and build up unexpected combos.
4) Sit on assault tiles for Shaolin crystal rush. 1200HP, so it's hard to clear.
5) Block enemy access to attack tiles. 1200HP, so it's hard to clear.
6) Let opponent win when taking up starting hand.... wait, what?

Har!
Lol you guys are too funny!!
The bamboo should have a message on screen when it is used to stomp an opponent. BAMBOOOOED.!
Its the only item I appreciate being stomped by, its simply to funny :)
Bamboozled!
When bamboo is used to stomp, I always think of it as a grave marker, with the little flag and all...
Bamboozled!
Absolutely awesome idea! I really hope RE puts this kind of small detail into Hero Academy! It would be such a nice feature, kind of like "Wasted Scroll!" when an archer/grenadier scrolls at melee range.
Bamboo stomps, bamboo tanks, bamboo holds down assault tiles, bamboo blocks teleporters. It slices, it dices, it juliennes. It makes a nice urn for the ash thats left behind by the dragon fire too, doesn't it?

That's right ...
Instead of pushing up daisies, the vanquished are pushing up shoots.

Agreed. The bamboo is currently my favorite Shaolin item, as long as it isn't clogging up my opening hand. ;)
