The more I see this GP in action, the more I scream OP!!
Of course you don't see it much for two reasons
1.) The two gods who can go Hathor are; Isis and Ra
2.) Isis players almost 90% of the time go Bast/Neph for A/E.
Ra on the other hand is not played very much and has a very even choice in heroic age.
The most basic use of Locust Swarm is to kill enemy gold villagers although it can be used in different situations all over, mainly on the opponents economy.
The problem with it is how much damage it does. If the eggy FH or even semi-FH and go Hathor, they have the ability to kill all your Gold villagers depending if the expansion mine is far away from any garrison building. I just lost a game purely because by 14 mins, all my dwarves (I was loki) got killed by Locust swarm. I knew where the Roc was but I couldn't keep an eye on it the whole time. I look away and thats when my opponent casts on my dwarves. I grab them to run them away, but thats even pointless. Only 1 dwarf survived out of the group and needless to say, my econ just couldn't supply my army very well anymore.
So, whats your opinions on Locust Swarm?
