I would argue the opposite. Neither chaos nor traitor are bad god powers. It just takes a bit more skill and creative thinking to use them at their best value than it does for most god powers.

I usually use it when an enemy attack's me or an ally and we are outnumbered. Today I used it when I was attacked and my base was still wiped out...

Both Traitor and Chaos pale in comparison to the potential of Flaming Weapons, Bronze, Ancestors, and hell I think even Locust Swarm is better now.

Chaos would also be a lot better if the affected units retained their upgrades.

"as you might think". Chaos has never been considered any good at all.

Chaos is a crap god power IMO, if theres an army and you use it, MOST likely it WON'T change the battle to much, 4 units is nothing really. If you say "well wait till he has only a few men and then take advantage", then you have to wait for the exact moment to use it, but may never come. Bronze and Flaming Weapons are really great, I just played a game, made me loose because he used Bronze, but I doubt Chaos can make some one loose a battle, then lead to a victory for you. Also some one said, "I use it and the 4 units kill another 4 units", thats not true, first of all the men loose their upgrades, making them weaker, and then most likely those units are outnumberd. Also they wont all attack the same unit, giving the chance it might not even kill another unit besides the 4 that it took.

Chaos should give ulf classical stats.

It wont turn a defeat into a draw. Four units is nothing, it should be 6 or 8. Look at bronze and flaming weapons, they change a battle far more then a measly loss of 4 men, which die instantly. All the other heroic god powers are better then Chaos and Traitor. Even the classical god power healing springs is way more useful then Choas, you can nearly loose men multiple times, and run away when you have near death hp. Also look at frost, that god power gives you a whole minute to build a new army, or stop a force about to kill your titian gate or even a wonder. Any ways I'd say more but I have to go.

What about Ceasefire - a classical GP that can save you from defeat. Compare that to killing 4 units and you'll see why Chaos is an awful Heroic GP.

LOL.In this way you may think flaming weapon is worse than chaos since after cease fire,at least chaos can convert 4 units and flaming weapon did nothing!
However I regard flaming weapon as best heroic god power.

Yes convert 4 units to GAIA, not your own, and flaming weapons greatly changes a battle as instead of 8 attack your up to like 15, its as if your army doubled, and if they use ceasefire while you use flaming weapons, then its god power for god power, what can you do?
