How do I salvage my hangar from the MM change?

I'm in the hang tight for the next few weeks until the League, new bot, new weapons, new map come out.

These are good stats and a good win rate --- so all seems good.

You can just level up slowly until you get that fifth slot and damage would go up with the upgrades.

If it were me, I'd do some small changes that are based on getting more damage for more silver.

I'd shelve mid-range with only 4 slot. There are plenty of pilots with five slots that carry at least one mid ranger that can cover you.

My recommendation is that you make silver accumulation the priority right now and that means dropping the Golem. To make the this a silver only cost, I'd buy one Leo, put the one Level seven Thunder on it and then either place your three Mags on it or buy one more Piñata and place three Piñata on it.

The Leo is not a turtle, so it should work well as your forth knifer.

The rest of your hangar is decent.

Everybody might laugh at me for saying this, but I'm actually pretty serious. Replace that Rhino with your best Cossack.

A plasma Rhino is a beat-down machine, usually used best for holding beacons and vomiting pain. It will drive your avg damage up and in turn you'll place higher on the winning team... Cossacks in the new Meta are only good for 2 things, grabbing unguarded beacons, and assasinations. I have a level 7 Cossack (on iOS) that I'm having a blast with, even if it gets vaporized quickly if I get to cocky with it. I can't decide if an Orkan or Taran is more effective though, equal fun, especially when you are dropping out of the sky onto some obnoxious Nat sniper wanna-be.

I'm actually a little surprised Cpt Cossack isn't living up to his nickname...

I know you're entitled to your opinion but could I request that you delete this post?

no hard feelings

everyone's advice was working

except yours

You know what? Screw it. I'm gonna play how I wanna play.

I've been running my Gerard with spirals and beacon running in it has been fun. If I'm cornered, I'm toast, but the Gep is so fast I can cap several beacons, then annoy Reds for a bit before getting destroyed.

This should work great as a decent Hangar once your avg. damage starts going down so that you're starting to be placed with a greater group of lights vs. mediums and heavies.

I'd drop the hydra as that just isn't going to keep you in the battle and will get in the way of leveling up. Replace with a Taran.
I'd also seriously consider adding back in the Carnage to the line-up and either using Thunders or Tridents on it as it's the fastest non-Au medium bot you can get.

Also level up the Gep. No point in not having hitpoints anymore in the new matchmaker. If you're getting meched out it's because your damage is too high in relation to your endurance.... these days you want higher endurance and lower damage.

Dejnov.

Is the idea here that damage output is comparable, but the Leo will live longer and the speed doesn't matter?

Pins have half the rockets of Tulumbas, but have a much shorter cycle time...  Such that two Pins have almost 50% more DPM than a single Tulumbas.  Plus, Leos have 170% the durability of Golems.
