The balance between attack spells and creatures seems fine so far. Attack spells are generally less efficient than a creature can be, but they also attack right now. While single target attack spells are less efficient in many ways, zone attacks and Chain Lightning can attack multiple targets, which can make them far more efficient than creatures when you have many targets. Chain Lightning in particular is amazing, as it doesn't require your opponent's forces to clump like a zone attack does. There are strong ways of dealing with both attack spells and creatures, and both are important aspects of the game.
good to hear. I was particularly afraid of the beastmasters creatures rush. Background is that i tried to build a spellbook that is centered around using attack spells (wizard).
After completing it i revisited the beastmasters spellbook and compared them both. I am fairly certain that the beastmaster will shred everything in this game with his rush.
Still you revived my hope that this won't be the case.
