Deadeye since I cleaned my hangar of every single unmaxed bot and weapon a month ago, I still don’t have anything resembling a competitive 6/6 hangar yet - however, I do plan to actively join the league soon’ish Let me know if you're interested when you're ready. I helped put together a team (the Mongrels) and we're getting our feet wet in this month's tournament.
It's really fun. More like it used to be, when tactics, strategy, battlefield awareness and teamwork ruled. I have a feeling you'll enjoy it.
Hey deadeye, I logged into the Line app 6/6 group for the first time over the weekend and chatted with a few people but could not get anyone to send me an invite. Are most players already signed up with a particular team? I just wanted to play a few pickup games, didn’t really want to get into tournaments quite yet. Also, as a seasoned 6/6 player, I thought you could offer some advice on my current 6/6 options I have: Thunder/mag Leo Thunder/Pinata Leo RDB Griffin Punisher Griff Aphid Gep DB Griffin (need 100 more gold for second Orkan) PDB Griffin (still need to save WSP for two Tarans) What other Ag/WSP/Gold setups are useful for 6/6 play. Thanks

Thanks Good questions! I will tell you what I know, but I object to the use of the term "seasoned 6/6 player" as I've really only been doing it for less than 2 weeks. lol. Still, I'll tell you what I know.
The LINE app is the best way to set up a pickup game, though it is still spotty right now. The best way to increase your odds is to start FB friending people on there that you see a lot. Once you've got some of those connections, setting up the games will go a bit smoother. The biggest thing about pick up games is timing. Evenings are best and I've seen the most activity between 6-9pm CST. No need to get into the tourney to do those and most people will grab you if you're available. The key is getting in before the game starts. People can't see your posts when in game. If you think people are ingame, tag them in LINE and they'll get notifications and will be more likely to see you when their game is done. I wouldn't try for pickup games on Discord right now for iOS. Everyone is on LINE. Lastly, on LINE, make sure you say you want a game. Lot's of fun chat on there, but if you don't say you want to play, everybody will just keep talking (I'm lookin' at you Poopface )
As for the setups, the great thing is that the META is far more broad. Leos are tanks and you will do fairly well with both types that you mentioned, but the Leo I'm running right now is the Thunder/Punisher Leo. It eats both types of shields extremely fast has a longer and steadier clip than the piñatas. The mags work fairly well, but the punishers work better, both really close and beyond 350m. I switched from mags to puns and like them better personally.
I also run a PDB, RDB and Punisher Griffin, as well as the aphid gep, so you've pretty much got my hanger. lol. I would go with a DB Griff if you can, though I'm not sure what you would want to switch it out for. Having a mid range RDB can be very helpful. You can always switch them out as the need arises or based on your preferred style of play. Also, a Punisher Griffin can double as a mid ranger, but isn't going to likely win against an RDB 1v1.
Other set up that are good: galahads/griffins have a new life, but still stink against rockets. The Rog is the king of mobility and firepower right now. Also, the Doc does very well because of mobility and versatility. Ancilots still work great and are extremely helpful if running with a team. I would focus on making your hanger viable in multiple situations. I've found that 1-2 mid-range, 1-2 beacon cappers, and the rest as brawlers works best if you don't know what you're up against.
If I see you on, I'll try to get you hooked into a game. Glad to have another 6/6er!

if you have premium don't use the ad-watch save it for something else. with premium you get the same amount and it doesn't combine to get more by watching a add. i tried it to see what happened wasted the add when i could have used it for the daily task or a bronze chest spin wow. Thats good info. I had no idea. I run premium and thought I would get even more if i watched the video. Yeah, I unknowingly tried the same thing yesterday and felt a bit cheated by it. Oh well, as G. I. Joe used to say, knowing is half the battle...

My apologies Deadeye. During the day, I chat. At night, I’m still grinding to get my primary hanger to elevensies. My current backup suuuuucks and wouldn’t make for fun games big for anyone. I’m trying to get my old backup hanger (Poopface Too), geared for L6, transferred to my new phone. Once that happens, I can put my craptstic piloting skills on full display during the day. Until all that is squared away, you can kiss my grits. ?

I think that you do get more but that there is a visual bug and it doesn't show correctly.

Until all that is squared away, you can kiss my grits. ? No apologies necessary. I'm really just trying to put together the funniest, snarkiest 6/6 team possible and we need you. My hope is to record the first robot killed by laughter. We'll set up comms with the opposing team and start lobbing shenanigans, tomfoolery and general goofball...ery (I think that last one might be on urban dictionary) at them until they fall before our onslaught.
And as long as your grits are cheesy (with maybe a few shrimp), then I'm down. Mmmmm, grits...

You do get an extra 50% on top of premium.
