Adrenaline boosted offworlds are SOO broken!

Image below is from a 1v1 game where both of us had double offworlds. Despite the fact that there was no AB in the BM... we both placed our OW next to each other. Hillariously, AB comes up for auction.  Guess how much it went for?

For what it's worth, adrenaline boosts are supposed to only have half the effect on offworlds in beta 7.

Same scenario happened to me so don't feel too bad. I let Insync have the auction for 68k because I was going to EMP his offworld right after he used it (he was already severely in D debt rating). Unfortunately I didn't notice he was still defended tile for 30 more seconds and he won despite being ridiculously behind in the game all because of that one auction.

 

Glad to hear it's getting nerfed.

For what it's worth, it was not AB alone but AB combined with Nanotech. And half the effect was all I needed to get out of D rating and re-goon the OW. Unfortunately for me, your freeze came 1/2 a second before I was able to do that. In hands of a faster player (which really is not an achievement) that AB should've had bigger impact while Nanotech should've not been in play at all. 

I am glad that both exploits are going to be nerfed in beta 7. On the other hand, that doesn't help with the whole offworld rush situation in 1v1. Maybe even worsens it. Because as of now, these tools leave a small chance for comeback for someone who is behind. Without them it's pure OW race. No way whatsoever to counter the first OW.
