What to change?

I wouldnt mix aphids and spirals. Pick one or the other. Id recommend Pinatas in the light mounts on that bot. Also, as discussed here at length, I would look to ditch the Rajin down the road as its not effective in the upper levels. A Carnage is a better bot for tridents.

i would put pinatas and thunder on first leo but you shouldnt buy a carnage imo because carnage is obsolote as well

Thunder Carnage may be obsolete in the current meta but a Zeus Carnage can still score high damage when played correctly.

ahem, not in gold 3, where the OP is if you check his SS.

edit: Unless their's tankers, of course...

Whoa, with the trident update around the corner and the 30% update for bastion, you ccould hold on to that, but you need 5th slot and your hangar is a slug bub.

The spirals on Leo 1 would need to go if it remained in that hangar. Replace with gusts or punishers.

Leo 2 is fine but aphid chucker is better and use just one Leo

Could somebody say if that's acceptable setup?

Here's my advice

roll silver chests... a lancelot would fit well in your hangar, but right now I'm not sure it's worth 5k gold. Even an orkan would be nice, 'cause your rhino needs them.

What I'm saying is basically this.
Orkans on Rhino
Tarans from Rhino to a new Lancelot + Ancile, this will replace your Leo.

Start saving gold for a couple of orkans anyway... if you win one, even better.

Gareth won't work well with hydra and gekko, better
Taran/Magnum
Storm/Gust
Orkan/Pinata (I prefer the two above, but if you only have one Orkan, you can try this setup while you save for the second).

Trident is bad atm, I'd take a honest RDB griffin as midranger (tulumbas/pin).
If you really like Raijin I think it can work well with zeus and tempest, but you need two of them. Not an endgame bot anyway.

If you have decent components amounts here's some bot you could look for: Bulgasari, Haechi, Kumiho, Spectre, Inquisitor... those are good for sure, plus there's an entire new array of bots that aren't so common so I can't tell. With those above you can't go wrong.

I would focus on 1 support bot 3 brawler and 1 beacon capper

Tulu/Pin Griffin is a very good support bot even on higher leagues

What your hangar realy needs are Orkan brawler like Orkan/piniata Griffin or Rhino

Maybe build a PDB griff with tarans from Rhino and Magnums from Leo
I would not mix weapons... choose your enemys well to byepass there ancil/shilds... a plasma /rocket mix rhino will have problems with any kind of shild...

i would recommend something like this:

Jesse 4x Aphid or piniatas
RDB (tulu/pin) griff
DB(Orkan/piniata) griff
PDB (Taran/magnum) griff
PDB or DB rhino

I got this right now as per previous instructions.

Unfortunately no more gold atm, should I stick with this or replace gareth and leo with griffin? If I use 3 griffs there's no use for ancile and I have only 1 orkan atm.

@tooschoolforcool that's the first build I had when I created this thread. Please take a look at this new setup.

RightOn

I corrected my build with what I could and that's how it looks right now. I don't know what all PDB/RDB or leadhose mean, so I was using brozart 's post as my guide, but some of those he didnt list, could you explain the meaning of those? Also gary, no clue what that is.

Thank you so much brozart, I'll hope to remember it all, if not then I will comeback to your post.

I gotta say that gary with orkan and magnum is doing the job done pretty good. This build is really great. Thanks everyone.

I know about orkans, they're so good, but quite expensive at the same time, I'll just keep saving for orkans now. I have a few leftover magnums lvl 7, gotta upgrade new build

I wasn't expecting RDB Griff to be so good actually.

Ok I looked. PDB=Plasma Death Button(Taran/magnum builds); RDB=Russian Death Button(Tulumbas/pin builds); leadhose griffin= all Punisher setup; gunship=all Molot’s. On a side note, we’re testing a heavy Punisher on test server, so it may be possible to even have a leadhose raijin one day.

Don’t bother upgrading more than 3 magnums. I don’t use them at all in my brawling hangar and only one on my mk2 Taran/magnum gareth in my beacon running hangar.

Keep gareth, he’s a super fast bot that can go toe to toe with haechi, lancelot, griffin, inquisitor, and still win.

I’ve tried magnum/redeemer leo, and he’s just too slow to get into range with the new meta hence why I suggest against magnum brawling with him. I relegated leo to my long range hangar, it’s running flux/gekko now and leo doesn’t work to bad as a sniper with its massive health pool.

I ran trident/pin leo, and that also was a pretty good build for low leagues and you do need a mid/long range bot in your hangar. So consider trying that for fun too.

Keep the aphids around because they’re quite fun. If you ever come across another pair of orkans, Aphid/orkan rhino and griffin are both valid meta and highly effective.

I personally wouldn’t recommend upgrading rhino, he is several meta ago, and although he’s quite fast, rhinos rarely hold up to a orkan/piñata gareth, let alone all of the orkan dash bots I see. Every single one I ever see dies a quick and painful death, it’s just not meta anymore and these days might be a better midranger (Molot’s). 9 is the most I would recommend to level him.

Taran/magnum griffin. Good choice, save the jump for retreat and ur golden. Also, only upgrade the tarans, you won’t see a single magnum in top tier and I’m trying to save you wasted time.

I mostly just see scourge bulgasari and Taran spectre these days, on the low end, not including people who run shocktrain specters like bad bad pilots did a few meta ago with tulumbas/pin griffin. They’d stand in one place and only fire when they had jump. How boring is it to press jump then fire over and over again? I like to walk around, get my feet dirty.

Tulumbas/griffin has gotten me tons of kills back in the day. Keep upgrading the tulumbas, the pins can languish at <10 but tulumbas should be maxed. I hear people still use them in champion league but I don’t see any RDB besides the carcasses laying around. Shocktrains and scourge especially coupled with jump+stealth or dash+shield tend to make short work of them and their effectiveness in higher tier play.

Pretty much anything without stealth or dash dies pretty quickly in pure meta matches. And in non meta matches having stealth or dash almost guarantees a million plus score. This is why I only suggest upgrading medium weapons in your hangar, because I see what you’ll eventually gear your hangar towards once you start hitting the highest levels.

Thanks a ton guys.



My hangar looks like this right now.



BUT I have gotten a hold of Inquisitor. Which one should I switch it for? I thought about getting rid of rhino.

Sad to say but let Gary go he's had his time and it's up
