I see a lot of people comparing lancelot to fury because they have 5k gold and don't know which to buy. However, I'm interested in which performs better at midrange - Fury, Carnage, or Natasha? Please consider the use of both zeuses and tridents for heavy, and for light pin/gekko respectively.

I love the TT Fury, but I believe it depends on the map and your play... no one bot is the best...

Overall it's the fury. Pretty map and bot dependent tho. If the reds have a lot of ancilots then not so much. If the spawn consists of rhinos and galahads then fury trident all the way. Zeus is fine, just a lot more work to kill shielded bots. As always, ymmv.

Carnage, with the speed and built in energy sheild, I find this one to have a better survivability and adapt best in most situation. Though it may not deal as much as others, but if it was a Fury versus Carnage. I find that Carnage to win because of its speed to keep distant and a energy shield enough to save it from a full trident fire from a fury

I picked the Fury, but I think Carnage is a close second. The better mobility plus the ancile help it deal with other midrangers effectively, and it's a much better Zeus platform than the fury is due to that mobility. If there is only one midranger on the battlefield, the Fury is almost strictly better due to the 50% increase in firepower over the carnage.

Furry if using Tridents. For Zeus, I found Carnage better due to mobility.

Picked up Natasha.
Fury would be the choice if you only want to hit knife fighters. Probably Trident.
Natasha would be the choice if you want to both hit knife fighters both deal with other midrangers. Probably Tridents + Molots.
Carnage would be the choice if you want to reach firing position quickly, have better chance of retreat and take some beacons. Probably Zeus.

Fury because as a midranger you need more firepower than survivability. The carnage is less map dependent though and is thus more versatile.

I use Zeus Carnage over Trident Fury, as it is so much better on the short maps. Even on the long maps, Carnage gets more shot opportunities due to its mobility. I do miss the 3rd heavy hardpoint at times, but I think Carnage Zeus may out-DPM the Fury since it gets into position so much better. It just sucks facing lots of physical shields. But every build has its tradeoffs.

I think if you are judging it by damage a TT Fury is the way to go. There is just something infuriating about playing something that slow! I have both a TT Fury and a Zeus Carnage the Carnage is just more fun to play.

Carnage. More versatile and more useful on short maps.

The TT Fury. However, the Natasha does the same damage but with less range (500m) for the Pins. I'd personally use the Natasha because I don't think the Fury is worth the extra 5k gold for an extra 100m range.
Overall, the Fury is the best midrange platform.

I responded fury.
I would however put in a small plug for butch trident / zeus. Just because if gives different options dependent on target.

I still go with my Fury as long range duty. But all of them have their pros and cons. I've never really used a Natasha, and I don't think it can replace a Fury.

Despite my vote, you can use almost all the midrangers and you won't regret it, even the Raijin. Raijin does good on maps that Fury sucks at, and it acts like a Carnage on the other maps. In a 7 1/2 min game, my Raijin alone did ~550K of damage with 2x L10 Tridents. I think I might switch to Raijin once I level it and the Tridents a bit more, since the introduction of the Moon map. Maybe Zeus but I don't have any on my main account.

Hard to say as I have neither a fury nor any intention of getting one.
But I do love my Zues Carnage, and it has a permanent place in my hangar as it's mobility, ancile shield and 5 sec reload make it viable on all maps.

One of the issues with mid-range is that people can stay in them too long (myself included).
On that basis although I love the Zarnage. And can rack up 750k (9/9) that takes a whole game, which isn't always the best team strategy.
I swapped to a Zeus Fury and do as much damage as possible in 3 mins then bail (or get destroyed).
On that basis Fury for me.

Maybe Zeus but I don't have any on my main account. IMO the raijin is best suited as a sniper platform. Once i met a treb raijin spawned in the farm area, he climbed back to the cliffs and stayed there sniping freely. Our trebs get blocked and the cliff was very far away trident and zeuses will have trouble hitting it.

I go back and forth between my Carnage & Fury. Carnage is definitely more versatile, but 50% more damage changes the landscape of the battlefield real quick. You do not flank in the Fury, you count down to fire to eliminate reds!
Overall I pick the Fury.
