My most use bots are Galahad and Gareth. I've been finding lately that it is now nearly impossible to outrun Orkan since the latest update. It's frustrating now, that I can't use the Galahad or Gareth speed to advantage anymore. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Also curse this Damn small button bug!
To specifically quote that I have been playing this game for two years and am aware of all functionality in the battle. I've played long enough to acknowledge that there is something wrong with backpedal method, when it comes to countering orkans.

Also curse this Damn small button bug! avoid orkan more batter now than before..if befor update we can use backpedal to avoid rocket. now..backpedal is not work..but now u can go side to avoid rocket. because missile weapon have decerese AOE. usualy now, rocket user try to guessing ur move direction. so u can trick them by move to left than go right. or move to right side then go left..

Apparently backpedaling still works for me on my Stalker, sideways works well too! You gotta be alert to start running the moment they start firing, if you are already taking fire from rockets and you backpedal, you're done for.

Back-pedalling is still working for me, as long as the bot has enough speed and I'm not within 200m of the target. I may be back-pedalling out of the line of fire without realising though. Will try to keep an eye on it and report back if I think of it.

It's frustrating now, that I can't use the Galahad or Gareth speed to advantage anymore. Is anyone else experiencing this? Also curse this Damn small button bug! Orkans have a range of 300m and if you are using plasma Galahad, Gareth setups you won't have a problem. Just increase your awareness so you won't end up being closer to an Orkan bot. And yes you can back pedal them if you have your bots at Level 9 with shield on side and you are no less than 250m away. ^^^this plus the fact of reduced splash makes ork evasion easier now more than ever. Ork explosions trigger somewhat more sluggish too (proximity triggering seems to work less now). Never stop, keep strafing and randomly changing direction... If I run plasma gary, the ork-based bots can mostly kiss my 「bum-bum」. Most of the missile spray ends just popping in the 50m gap or where I was 0,5s earlier.

I actually find that it's easier to avoid rockets now too. Just gotta evade a bit differently than you use to.

I've played long enough to acknowledge that there is something wrong with backpedal method, when it comes to countering orkans. True Backpedaling... is dead from all i can see. My Gary was quite adamant that he was indeed getting hit as I ran backwards from the strike. Yes, it was a stated "fix" for Pix to get rid of it in update 2.9.1 and 2.9.2. The other posters are right that you can go left and right, however, and dodge them better than you used to. On Android especially because apparently we have a bug that does not allow proximity or timed detonation, only impact will cause the detonation... hence the removal of the functionality of Backpedaling.
