While
it's
true
that
hermit
has
higher
range
than
ogre,
this
matters
less
on
a
hilly
map
like
Ravaged
where
taking
the
wrong
walk
uphill
can
be
met
with
ogre
volleys,
especially
given
that
hermits
require
a
direct
line
of
fire.
Hermits
are
also
too
specialized
compared
to
redbacks,
as
they
aren't
able
to
handle
the
kodachis
that
were
often
partnered
with
ogres,
and
they
definitely
wouldn't
be
able
to
remove
any
minotaurs
if
the
tank
player
decided
to
build
any.

Range matters more in the case of crab which is ideally paired with a spire, in which Ravaged's hills become much less meaningful. Abuse spirejank well enough and most tanks can't even reliably target the crab, ogre being the most realistic exception, but good luck to any ogres trying to get in range. Range also matters more in the case of recluse as it is not a frontlining unit and can fire beyond walls.

Thus, I have doubts that 1.6k in hermit would achieve more than one crab or equivalent cost in redback + recluse, at least in this particular map and matchup.

Spiders vs Tanks (Ogre+Emissary beats them all?)
