The scales of justice can be very benefical, or very harmful to yourself. This weapon will balance all teams total worm health. Let's say team A has 4 worms, with a total of 400 health together, while team B has 2 worms with a total of 200 health. If any worm uses the scales of justice, the total health will be equal for all teams. In this case, the total health of all teams is 600, which gives causes each team to have 300 in total team health. For team B, this is an improvement, for team A, it's a loss. Here's a quick way to show you how it works:

Before scales of justice:

Team A

Aaron: 100 health points

Air Killer: 100 health points

Alex: 100 health points

Another worm: 100 health points

Team B

Bob: 100 health points

Billy: 100 health points


After scales of justice:


Team A

Aaron: 75 health points

Air Killer: 75 health points

Alex: 75 health points

Another worm: 75 health points


Team B

Bob: 150 health points

Billy: 150 health points


This means that team A has lost 100 health points while team B has earned 100 health points.
