<BSilenced> Do you think Yuri's Revenge Unites are properly balanced
or do you see fan pressure causing some units to gain or lose some power?
<WSP-Dev> We spend a lot of time balancing units...and by reading the

It'll take a while before players explore all combos and tactics. Please keep
playing and giving us feedback (positive, please :)
<Delphi-WS> LOL! Thanks for stopping by guys!
<WSP-Dev> Thanks for all the great fan support!!!!
