I still keep mine in my secondary hanger and will pull him out occasionally. One of my favorite bots for sure. I wish he wasn't so delicate or I would play him all the time. You get a leech or something target you and he can not last more than a few seconds in champs. BB is the exception with his skills and always impresses me.

Wonderworker Rog is really tempting. But I love my supersonic Ghost Rog. Hard to decide, which is better. There is a nice video from Mani where he plays FFA first with Ghost Rog and then with jumping Rog. And he does great with both of them.
I am actually thinking to get a second Rog to have both of the variants ready :-).

I would be 100% OK with that if it was only legacy type bots and not open to anything say "dash era" and after or else it would be even a further 「dookie」 show out there. |

Love my Ghost Rog - great capper, and with a pair of shotties, some cover and the wind in the right direction, he can hold the beacon just long enough for teammates to arrive... In TDM, he comes out near the end to tidy up the damaged and the crippled, and is small enough that the Arthurs don't always see him scooting round their backs. However, he is very fragile, and really needs cover. Mine is still low level (9 Mk 1) and gulps the green healing Kool Aid too often. |

Was my fav bot for years. I have tried it in Champions League a few times, but it’s just too squishy now without a big investment. And even then still pretty squishy.

Rog is great fun and can survive ... as long as it is not beeing shot at :-D. You have to plan your moves with Rog carefully to avoid catching unwanted attention for as long as possible. The best fun is to find a lonely red and get to his back without him noticing. With two bit leveled shotties (my storms are MK 1 level 9) you can often take him down before he figures, what is going on. Unless it is a T-Falc of course :-).

I am actually thinking to get a second Rog to have both of the variants ready :-). So what goes into making a Wonder worker Rog and a Ghost Rog? Wonderworker repairs 7,5 % of your total health each time that You use your ability. Which is great in case of Rogatka, as the cooldown of its ability - the jump - is very short. So you just keep hopping like a bunny and keep healing.
With the Ghost skill Rogatka gets very fast - the speed increases by 50 %, but she looses its ability to jump. So Wonderworker does not work any more.
So You have to choose, if you want to run a hopping self healing Wonderworking Rog or a hyper sonic Ghost Rog.

the Rog is deff in the hearts of old timers. I jumped on the bandwagon really late. I always found them easy to kill, so like the faster Kumi more. But then i found out it was the perfect counter to the meta. Those ?fluffernutter?ing Orkechis. Avoid all the rockets, stay outta range, shoot at them with hard hitting Tarans. Basically delete them while laughing all the way to the bank. Then everyone was looking at my hanger. Either copying me so more Rogs started to appear, and whales switched to the next meta. Haechi Tarans to easy kill the jumping beans. Then to bulgasaris to block the PDB death buttons. Then someone figures out how to tilt the shield of the Bulgie, so it could fire and block PDB at the same time with Scourges.
the Orkan Rog was one of the first hit n run, hide bots. Unload a full salvo. Then repeat until red is dead. OP at the time, since bots were Leo speed.
with some skill, it's deff a nightmare bot to face in a 1v1 sit. even in champs and w meta bots.
Not sure how it works in team modes, I mean, one scratch, and it's dead.
It's fun in the lower leagues. I have multiple old accounts. Forgot the log on. But got one back up n running recently, and decided to try the Rog again after its newfound Glory. Got a 3x KILL on my first run with it using a combo of Storm and Scourge. It's a spare account, so i dun have much on it. Would love to get some matching weps and level it a bit further, but ?fluffernutter? no to the grind so it aint gonna happen. 2x Storm would delete alot of bots up close.
Makes me eager to try the Gust/Storm or Shotty combo on my 2nd Hover. Put 2 into my main hanger if I can. But i'm working on another project, and it's a ?dookie?load of silver so gonna take months. Been talking bout it for almost 1 year now, won my AQ last LNY.

Hate to sound like a noob but are these pilot skills or are you using a module? |

ROGARIA BABY!!!
IF IT WERENT FOR THIS LITTLE LOCUST I WOUKD HAVE QUIT THIS PIT LOOOONG AGO...
had been playing for over 3 years before I first tried one out....just rotated #4 in to try hussar after winning a second "freedom" hussar during the Christmas event to go w the one I won on 4th of July ( y'know, cause Christmas is totally just american)(actually turned out better because even tho the "freedom" weapons skins have to be the worst looking weapon skins ever, EVER!!, It would look even more dumb if they didn't match)
All but #4 are 12/1, weapons12/1. All have pilots w 1 skill. Quantum Radar on All. I run 2 w/tums and 1 w/ ions
And now the 4th w/ hussar 11/1, 7/1.
Storms are great for close up but I feel like I can do more with Mid range weapons that don't need a lock and that deal the same damage at max range as in your face. But you gotta make every shot count. The ion is the exception of course, but it's reload time matches an ability boosted rogs jump in a very nice fashion and a level 12 ion isn't far behind a Zeus, makes a great mid game assasin/capper.
I'm liking the hussar set up but haven't got the hang of em yet. Probably only hitting half of my shots but should have it dialed in by the time I get the 2nd one leveled up.
Thot about getting a 5th but grabbed my cossy instead (single 12/1 ion, super annoying)
Switching to decaf now

I encountered something incredibly frustrating last night on test server. I’m talking Loki level frustration when you don’t have quantum radar, low set weapons, or are in a slow bot. What I encountered, and everyone was having a really hard time killing it, was a Ghost Rog with Road Hog and two Ecu shields!!! Though not ideal to have something that can’t fire weapons, it was really difficult to kill and did excellent as a beacon runner

I ran one on my main hanger the other night for the first time in a while just for the nostalgia. We hit some other clans and the looks I got were priceless!

I would be 100% OK with that if it was only legacy type bots and not open to anything say "dash era" and after or else it would be even a further ?dookie? show out there. I would mk3 legacy bots for module slots. |

Yeah, It sucks you cant run modules on the Rog. Even one slot would make a HUGE difference and actually make it viable in the upper levels.

Mark, when modules were first introduced, Rog had ONE passive module along with one active. That lasted about 2 weeks, and they pulled the passive mod. Believe me, if anyone remembers that, it’s me. I was pissed off for awhile after that. |

I sure miss those morning runs we used to have back in the old days.. only small maps and all Rog hangars teaming up on the reds... :-) |

Lv11 w/ 2 Cryo, Phase shift, Ghost and both Road Hogs.
M2, either face mostly experts or mostly champs.
I start with it and just play Beacon Rush. I love getting into enemy territory quickly and seeing 3 or more enemies spawn to stop little ol' me. It either helps the team hold center, or if others are close enough behind, end the game quickly. It's great for the consistent speed boost relative to Kumiho and to corner shoot from either side. Anarchy looks pretty good with the sinister versions.

Though not ideal to have something that can’t fire weapons, it was really difficult to kill and did excellent as a beacon runner I did this with Gepard in lower level leagues and had a slot for a weapon on top. Used the able to get 4-8 beacons at a time. Worked very well a time...until it didn’t. Became obsolete by Expert league. Im often the first to a beacon and usually end up is a stand off for the second with another fast mover like a Phantom, Strider, Kumiho, Loki, etc. Can’t win many beacons without weapons in these instances with high level weapons I can often win that shoot out. They pack a punch and take a punch like a middle weight champion. |

Just leveled my Storms up to max and gave Rog a spin with them Champs ~6,000 cups.
Not to bad, getting a few kills per game and having fun with it.
Thing I found most enjoyable was jumping up on the Titans and shooting them right in the face. Kid especially can't move fast enough to effectively target. Only thing to watch out for at that range is the stove.
