Okay, I have 6000Au at the moment. I've got 5 slots and 4 Orks.
Currently running thunder Carnage, plasma Galahad, plasma Gareth, dB/PDB Griffin and a trident/pin Natasha. Mostly level 9, with a couple of 8s and a few 10s.
Gold 2-ish on android.
I'm considering getting a Lancelot.
I'm also considering getting a couple of Zeuses for a second carnage (replacing the Natasha) or a pair of aphids to make a full Jesse.
Which do you think would be the most useful?

Thunder ork Lance is good for killing ancilots but dies quickly to tridents, tulus, and orks, which are everywhere. I would only get the Lance if u see lots of ancilots that need killing, or have an ancile yourself.
Zeus carny is my favorite 600m build. You move well, fire often, and hit w 28k damage (in theory) every 6s.
I have aphid Jesse at level 9. Aphids just aren't my thing. I Excel at throwing them into walls. I fear for their usefulness vs dash bots, but I see them used to great effect by some pilots.
In a vaccuum I vote Zeus, but ideally you would want to bring your second pair of orkans into your lineup.
Cheers!

I'd dump the Gareth for another DB Griffin, and get Zeus for your carnage.

I would get the Ancile Lancelot. In this buff to the Russian Griffin(or whichever 'Russian' setups), both the Zeus and the Ancile Lancelot are going to be essensial at taking them down. However, the Lancelot provides better team support and it's not really map specific as compared to the Zeus Carnage which can only be used to the best extent in maps without cover.

I will agree with this. I have zeus and have used them on carnage but overall my ancile lancelot performs and keeps on performing every game. I agree with those saying to get the other two orks into play. My own current line up is DB Griff RDB Griff Ork ancilote Thunder carnage Tullumbas aphid griff (this slot rotates, sometimes plasma gary, sometimes weird things like treb gekko nat). I have a fifth and sixth ork that need leveling. When levelled they will go into play - possibly on a fourth griffin. But the ancilot stays. |

I would try to consider a few things, to make the best choice for yourself.
- Lancelot will always be relevant in some for - Ancile etc.... whatever
- mid-range has alot of competition right now
- Are you not saitisfied with you Natasha
Your strongest reason should often guide you. Ex... I purchased my Lancelot and immediately put on the Orkans from one of my Griffins (thjs was a little while ago, before we heard of Ancilots). I liked running the Lancelot alot, but I didnt like running plasma on my Griffin. Decision to make:
-new #1 brawler bot in favorite set up with Orkans?
-tried & true db Griffin?
For me, it was worse to run plasma on my Griffin then positive running Orkans on Lance. Now I like tbe additional distance with Tarans on Lancelot, equipped witb Thunder I look for Ancilots!
For you, what is biggest desire, Lancelot or Zeus Carnage to replace Natasha.
Hope that helps.

What do you want the Lancelot to accomplish that you're not accomplishing right now? You're going in three very different directions right now. |

You are all correct that I'm looking in different? directions. I'm feeling underpowered/outranged by red Trident Furies and other mid and long-range bots. Yet when I run 2 mid-range, my beacon capping suffers. I also notice that if I focus on beacons, my damage suffers.
I've used my DB Griffin for a while, and I used to love it, but over the last month or so, I have just been crap with it. I get a red in my sights, unload and miss. Usually not even close enough for splash. Sometimes it's lag, but sometimes it's not. I've recently jumped up a couple of leagues, and I'm definitely feeling it.
I do have an Ancile I won from a chest.
I'm partly hoping to improve by using better equipment, but also by narrowing my upgrade focus.

The thunder is a get it over with fast knifer. Which is why i went Thunder/Orks on two lances. I don't want to be out in the open with a Lance very long. You can get away with that some with the ancile. Only problem when you spawn and the fight is on the other side of the map its almost over by the time the Lance gets there. You cannot go wrong with a Zeus Carny I put him away for a bit but pulled him out because I love the 「dookie」 out of it. Awesome counter to RDB's now and can cap some beacons. I guess all of this depends on what you are wanting more. A knifer or Midranger? Either one is a great option IMO and both will do you right once you level them up. Make the call on what you want and would have fun playing on.

I LOVE my Thunder Carny and never wanted to give him up.. with the updates though I wanted to try Trebs, trident and zeuses on him. (Have a set of each from the event).
Love the zeus build so much am getting an extra carny to put thunders on. My zeus are only l7 but am already burning stuff down. Will give me the zues as a permenant and can play with Tridents / trebs and thunders while leveling them all up to get a fury into the field at a later date.
Try the zeus carny. Mobility, range, damage and an energy shield... perfect for the meta right now.

If you go Lancelot, I'd run Ancile/Plasma.
If you go zeuseses, I'd get 3 and slap em on a fury.
Both with be worthwhile investments in the coming meta.
