Everyone knows the energy shotgun Ares, the Avenger Ao Jun and the Glory Traditional Falcon, but what non-meta builds and/or bots are you using?
Are you playing it because it is fun or is it secretly op? Tell me your stories!
I am currently using a triple Viper Falcon and I am loving it. It really needs high levels to shine though and you are useless close range. But the fade away kills when you jump away make it all worth it.

I run to that I don't see often, the strider with tasers, and the Mercury with shredder and Glory. Strider is normally using halos with either Glory or ember, and the mercurys I see are using halos and avenger/Glory/ember. The strider is the best build in my opinion , autoaiming helps a ton with the dashing. And the mercurys seems to always be firing something.

Mercury and falcons non meta bot? I thought this thread would be about Leos and pattons..... Well I have run a taser leo, ran it with lock down so and last stand along with the adran pilot, worked pretty well. Right now it's my favorite build using an old bot.

I have also ran a hussar nemesis, it was interesting though because I almost never play range. I also tried a flux gecko Hades, not bad, but only on large maps

Carnage with Redeemers is a fun build that can pack a lot of damage. Requires some finesse these days to play but can be quite satisfying when done well. Natasha with Avengers and Punishers is reasonably suitable as a mid range bot and can devastate in close on the right maps. Last but not least Gepard Noricum (only joking )... actually a hangar of painted Rogs jumping about causing havoc

Nothing too out of the ordinary, Storm Spectre L9xL8, and my Raven Scourge/Spark L9xL8. These two are my faves.
The other three are Fen, TFalc and Ao Jun. Of these 3 I'm enjoying the Fen the most, usually.

AQ and Hover per my name.
AQ is like my Hover. I'm planning to strap 3 sparks. If i can get close to a Tank, my goal is to fly above his head in circles and melt him.
Hover is ok. Used to die alot. But now, i know how to play it so it's not like a secret. More based on skill.
Hades. I took it out. OMG, at L6 it was better than any of my other bots.
Weyland. It gives me 400 HP every match. Nothing secret bout this. Maybe the 4th best wanna be Tank.? I dunno, don't quote me 「female dog」es.
Bulwark is getting good. New Fortnite mod ups its game. We'll have to see where the dust settles. Although if this is in top 3, i'm not sure which Tank gets kicked out of the club. Maybe the fennick. Useless piece of turd.
So AQ may take few months, up to 1 year before i can play it as well as the Hover. I never had high hopes for Hover since 1.6 year ago everyone said it was dead in the sky. Now it's a really fun and good bot.

I m also running a hover/scrouge/spark as a beacon capper + disrupter, on certain maps, some beacons can be reached within a single jump, i used the word disrupter because i use it to sneak up on the rear of a busy red (engaging other blue in a melee) and zap its butt

One of my longtime favorites is the Avenger Halo Rayker, which I can't recall ever having seen anyone else run. Rayker is underrated all around, and IMO it has the most reliable suppression ability. It's heavily armed for a light bot and fast enough to catch vulnerable meta bots, and being able to reduce the firepower of a full Sporkan to a single pinata with the pilot skill more than makes up for its mediocre armor. It also doesn't hurt that most players aren't used to fighting Raykers, especially close range ones, so opponents will make plenty of tactical errors that a Rayker user can exploit.

I guess that's sort of not meta?
I don't think they know just how much damage that build can do when it's time to back away from the fray or bot out in 4 minutes flat...
Granted, a Bulwark is probably better, but the Carnage is paid for and the Bulwark is about 9500 points from completion in the WS, with no current plans to make more.

Scourge Spark Hover Triple Viper Falcon Quad Pulsar Spectre Kinda thinking that Pulsar Spectre is pretty darn meta-ish. Not in the top five, but something to really be careful of if they're on the battlefield.

Yep, it's economically better to play with the bot you have rather than grind for a new one, and then wait until the upgrades are over. By then the meta would've shifted and your back to square one. Besides, people say a lot of things regarding what can be played in Champions League vs what cannot, and they are being disproved more and more often. Here's a few videos on what a Dragoon Carnage can achieve in Champions League:

Vortex-Orkan Spectre with PS, Road Hog, Mechanic, and Foolhardy quartermaster, Ember-Scourge Inquisitor with Quantum Radar, Road Hog, and Guidance Operator, Taran-Corona Bulgasari with Quantum Radar, Mechanic, and Road Hog, ...
What else? I think Mender, Strider, and Blitz are semi-meta...

It really needs high levels to shine though and you are useless close range. But the fade away kills when you jump away make it all worth it. I use an all non meta hanger right now! I use mercury avenger shredders (he slaughters ares and ares trains alike. I use a strider who currently has calamity and gusts, soon to dragoon and marquess. I also love my falcon who also has a viper upfront but exodus on the back, works wonders against, really anything in a 1v1 at least. I also use a haechi scourge which has made more then a couple of dragons kinda SHOCKED. I will shut up now, anyway, it works quite well and hits much harder then you would expect. Perfect counter to any spectre with vortex (they all land on the shield or if not my dashes let me dodge the dmg. Now the last bot I use a butch trebs who will soon be switched out for a fenrir. I occasionaly use a cossack with ghost and is lv10 (first bot ever, and I still have the little grasshopper, even got the paint). I also have a special looking lv1 patton with all lv1 spyrals from a promotional thing.

I run T-Falc with a Viper, which might be meta, or not. I also have the Hellburner with Ecu and Ancile. It was meta maybe a year ago, but not now. I run Bulgasari with three Storms on my Amazon account and a Natasha with 2x Gekkos 2x Zeus. Sometimes I run Kumiho with Orkans x2 for beacon capping. I also love the Hover and run it with2x Vortex and an Aphid, for lack of better weapons. It still is deadly and gets me kills And beacons.

Tesla Calamity/Spark Vityaz can shine at times.
Halo/Blaze Destrier is great fun. Sneak up on an Ares like a Hobbit, lock it down and burn it's arse.
Not playing at the moment but really enjoyed Ghost Ember/Corona/Ignitor Lance. Beastly.

I run Falcon with Avengers. If it can blindside someone it melts bots! Bullwark with Vipers. I don't think Bullwark hasn't been meta for a loooong time. Lancelot with Ember and Igniters is a work in progress but fun to rotate into the lineup occasionally. Strider with tasers, though I think I used to get more kills with gust/exodus. Does Mercury Glory, Hal, Ecu count?
