I don't entirely agree with Lord Cristian. It can be argued that all clans have a unique style of play, though some clans are, uh, less unique than others.
Rescue is an attack manipulation clan (i.e., its bonus affects attack), so it is somewhat similar to
Junkz,
Sentinel,
Montana,
Sakrohm and
Uppers. On the other hand,
All Stars is a power manipulation clan, like
Bangers and
Ulu Watu. SOA and SOB clans also have a totally different flavour. There are clans that are good with poison; damage reduction; pillz manipulation, life gain, etc. UR is a very rich game, and it takes time to find a clan or clans that you like.
If you get hooked on the strong attack manipulation of
Rescue, you might find it difficult to switch to other clans. On the other hand, if you get used to the power manipulation of
All Stars, you might tend to use too many pillz if you switch to an attack manipulation clan. Both sides of the same coin.
Finally, I'm pretty sure that
Rescue doesn't get the crap beaten out of them by good players all the time, at least not when
Rescue is also being played by a good player, and certainly not in
ELO.
Rescue is generally considered a good, tournament-worthy clan.
