1 Wild take: The Zero-K units are the weak versions of their true power! Every strategy that was too effective against all other strategies was removed from the game. Every strategy that would cause a stalemate was removed from the game. This means that every unit in Zero-K is a weak version of the unit, and the one who wins in Zero-K is the one who is the strongest amongst the weakest! 1 Wild take: The Zero-K units are the weak versions of their true power!

3 No, this isn't an attempt to dunk on Zero-K rts. The problem is seen in many other games, like StarCraft 2, Red Alert 3 (unit costs), and many other RTS games that I cannot mention, but the examples are abundant. 3 No, this isn't an attempt to dunk on Zero-K rts.

7 But that's just a theory. A game theory. There are lots of implications that I have no time to explore. 7 But that's just a theory. A game theory. There are lots of implications that I have no time to explore.
