Would Halberdiers get stuff at marketplace ?

Anyway, this topic is about pikeman and it heroes choices...

I'm aware of that. It was a sarcastic analogy. It makes sense that a Pikeman hero should have good slashing, just as it makes sense that a Commando hero should have good slashing. You compared MP (which of course is a Pikeman hero) slashing to Chosen Marksman and Warden, which isn't fair at all.
