The issue here is that the 'Troll Bot' Strategy was based on two questions posted to the Q&A in week 1 or 2. (don't remember dates of the top of my head)
Seeing that the same answer was given twice, one would think that it's a safe bet to bank that the answer will hold true - but this isn't the case, since the GDC has once again gone back on one of it's answers in the Q&A with a team update. Can we really even trust the GDC anymore?
In any case, we might just be beating a dead horse. The troll bot that I've seen should still be quite competitive even with a traditional balancing strategy.
Oh, and something to lighten the mood a bit. Stumbled across it in my internet travels:
