Well, I remember some articles saying it and lots of people in early swap force talked about how its easier to use a certain swappers top or bottom half, to you know, Use them "Strategically"? Well I never did. I never really got it. Yeah I understand use Free Rangers bottom half mixed with Rattle shake and you can shoot people and have crowd control but... Thats pretty much the closest it got for me. I dont understand. lol, Skylanders, Especially this game, Is waaaayyy to EASY for me. I never have to think about it too hard. i just made fun ones and funny looking ones like Boom Bomb. Or Freeze Rise or Freeze Buckler. or Fire Kracken with... anybody. There are very few parts in the game where you actually need to THINK. Though Doom Shake Is strategic. Still did you guys ever use the Swappers " Strategically"?

as i see it there was no point in going the strategically route. the figures was easily upgraded to max, then you could just button smash you through anything that did come in your way.

It isn't difficult enough to warrant that and I don't think it's too interesting in itself.
I started a quest to play with every SWAP combo, but got bored of it and gave up within a couple months.

Strategically? Not at all. Slap together Magna Ranger and you've broken the game.

Though I should add you basically need Magna for any Time Attack combo, he makes getting clocks much faster. (For the bottom half, there are a couple of choices, though imo Ace Gunner Jet is best when you use him to spam Mach 1) Magna Jet is the only combo I use kinda strategically now.

I find Spy Rise to be the most OP swapper and I use one of his halves for Nightmare runs. Unless there are other swappers out there who are as strong as him.

I think I remember making something like this


Two combo I remember


Blast Rouser and Blast Buckler

It was a minor extra option for me to play with like a dragon cannon toy or a lightcore skylander .Only time i went nuts with it was for the swop accolade . Whoots i am a swop lieutenant .

I always play with my little brother so i dont even open those duel element gates with a mix swopper .

The developers could not make it strategic because everyone has a different amount of swoppers. They are trying to tickle us to buy more swoppers not force us .

I tend to just go for combos I like playing, but I suppose there is a bit of strategy in that I tend to use fast bottoms and heavy hitting tops and some pieces I strategically don't use because I don't like the way they play Been having fun with Rubble Charge lately.
