Read my post above. Yes, I 1v1 Galahad vs Kbot and can come away with 100% health. Not all the time, but if I play carefully. Shhhh! Don't want this to get out. Many will disagree, Champions included, and that's fine. More proof that the Galahad is underestimated and how I beat them. I am actually thinking about 2 Galahads for this reason. I saw another hanger with 2 of 'em. I had the same thought pattern as you. Taran Rogatka is good here, but weak against physical shields. Ancilot is ok against both, but slow as end game piece. Griffin needs to be well played against both, and many more Griffin pilots out there so Kbot pilots know how to counter. Do you ever record matches? I’d love to see a Plasmahad successfully 1v1 an Ork Haechi. Sounds incredible. No. That's the great thing about these forums. You can get all sorts of different viewpoints.

My main anti-Haechi bot is the Taran Galahad. Also use other plasma set-ups like Taran Rogatka or Ancilot. I find the Galahad the most balanced since there are many Ancilots I need to counter, so plasma Griffin is no go, and Ancilot vs Ancilot is boring. I usually beat Orkan Haechis that underestimate me, so I need to bait them. Then outrun or dodge their Orkans. There aren't many Galahad users out there, so I don't think they can test their tactics against me to counter. But yes, I do need to change my play style a bit. In other words, my Galahad fights them way more than they fight against Galahads so I have the edge since I know what to do. Taran Rogatka is another good one, but requires different play style. This bot can take on 2 Orkan Kbots, for me Kumiho and Haechi. Just dance around and take pot shots. For the most part, I don't have a problem taking out the Kbots. They take more skill to counter, but are doable with legacy bots. I still only have legacy bots. Maybe the first week they came out I had trouble, but I quickly adjusted being a Master player. This post is old, but the Kbot users are trying new setups since Tarans counter them easily. So the meta is constantly changing. I'm seeing more Taran Haechis most likely to counter the plasma Griffins, so the cycle will continue. Users will not change what works unless they are dying a lot from them, so take that as a sign that they are beatable. Overall, the Bulgogi is a better counter to plasma, so I currently see a very mixed hanger for the Whales. Plus Kbots have very predictable attack angles, so Champion pilots are starting to use that to their advantage to counter them. I’ll admit, i haven’t played my Galahad for quite some time despite my affection for it. I will also confess that I’m still a sceptic on it’s effectiveness, but I fully concede this may have something to do with the fact you are a better Galahad pilot than me at top tier. Hell, if I’m currently running a Rhino every match, surely I could try out a Galahad sometime also. Perhaps you could write a post on using the Galahad at top tier? I scoffed at Ron Gaul for his Rhino post back in the day, but now I’m a convert since the speed buff. Only if u have time - always interesting to see others in action and learn something new. A video would also be an apt response if you prefer.
