Good game on PP with @heavypanda tonight. Didn't get to see much of him though. I lost 3 bots whilst hanging onto the boat beacon. Defend it, or die trying! I HATE it when red shields suck up all the damage I'm dishing. Always a pleasure fighting alongside a forum buddy. Nice work on the beacons. I came your way towards the end during mop up time.

Are you on amazon platform by any chance? I think we might have bumped into each other today and my team got the worse of it. Yup, I'm playing on the Amazon servers. Had to be a Domination match since I will not play any other. What is your tag if I may ask? Mine is... Thor ID: DONCLT Unaffiliated Champion I don't squad unless I can find other Domination only players. So it was you, I got a screen capture of your hangar but didn't want to post it without your permission. I cannot recall if we actually fought each other (chances are we did) but it was good game and I think you were first or close second on winning team. Well done! Anyway, I'm also Pacifist in game and my ID is GU0BSL or that's 'O' instead of 0. Hard to tell. I'm also unaffiliated in champion. I always pick random queue as it doesn't have KOH but then amazon plays the tricks on me and switches before weekends. Regards and see you out there!

Lately I've been falling lower on the damage scale as I try harder to get the beacons. I spend more time lumbering between them with my Leos or Griffins than I usually do throwing pain. I saw a small spike in players going for beacons when the honor bar was implemented and became hopeful it would continue. But the BIFFs are back in force once again as players pass by the beacons as though they do not matter.

I had very similar hangar until recently but as much as I liked it I found it too slow for beacon capping. Kumiho made huge difference for me, it's fast and with two orkans it has enough teeth to ward off any light robot that wants the same beacon as I do.

A Thud/Pun/Leo, 3 Griffins(PDB, RDB, Vordraphid), and a Plasmahad. Sometimes I run two Leos, same builds. I always move towards the closest beacon regardless because of the BIFFs. Drives my nuts to turn away from following a fast light bot that started out running directly for a beacon only to turn around a few seconds later and see that the little 「dookie」 has not even touched it. I have two Kumihos but I don't like playing with the goofy looking things. I'm OCD and the lopsided look of it drives me crazy. I upgraded one to 8 but quickly got sick of it. Too many in the game.

Hi Pacifist and Thor I play on the amazon server. Started around x-mas. I am pretty sure I have run into you both before.... Pacifist on more than one occasion.... cool names BTW....Mine is the same name as here... GiraffeMan. [IRON] is the clan tag for iron outlaws. Do either of you squad with random players.... like a giraffe man for example? Hanger is 3 Griffs (only leveling one as I am not committed to the other 2) a PDB, RDB, and a Frankenstienish Punisher build (its got a scourge. took the advice of Dr. Yat). 2 Kumhi: Storm (not a long term build) and Orks. I know they are everywhere, but they are great beacon cappers and sneaky devils. I used to only run one, and had a leo in the hanger with a gust and a couple lvl 10 aphs. When I threw in the storm khumi the average damage went up by like a 100K and the pitiful win rate I used to have is actually now at least average I would hope (as low as 20% during Chinese new year event....as hi as 80% last week, but now it is around 55ish I think). imo the ugly dashers have a lot to do with this because I cap a lot more beacons in a game.... probably average about 4 to 6 in a normal situation, but a lot of that is me being sneaky and stealing one for a min or so only to have it recapped by the reds.
Anyway... just wanted to put myself on your radars. I usually run solo, but every now and then I run with the clan or a random will send me a squad invite and we may tear it up for a few matches... Hope to see you out there and good hunting!

Hey, your name sounds familiar and I'm sure I played against your clan at least few times... you guys mopped up pretty quick. I also have Ork Kumi and to be honest this is my favorite build right now. Would love to try Storms on Kumi but I haven't leveled them enough yet. My Griffins are being slowly retired but I think it would be great to try one with Storms and Gusts. Regards

I have been fortunate enough to run into hippochimp1 on Amazon. He is an awesome pilot with some impressive loadouts. (keep your mind above the gutter friends) When we fight, yesterday for example, he kicks my butt . I trade him 2 for 1 mostly. (my 2 bots to his 1). I like when he is on the battle field because he forces me to think, plan, and be aware. All being necessary to be a better pilot. I had been matched(using the term loosely) with pilots that couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. I tended to get cocky and lazy just Strolling out there with my Scourge bulga and melting everything in site. hippochimp1 forces me to get better. I look forward to fighting him again!

Haven’t run into anyone new in awhile. GG ѻﻭɼﻉyou had some bad randoms and we got positional advantage earlier. Our campers were better than your campers too I think.

Great game mr. @kukurukukuk We had an amazing game on Shenzen Domination.We were on opposite sides and it was a real pleasure.They took all 4 beacons in the first 30 seconds of the match,as my random team mates decided to start the game with range bots,zeus furys and shocktrain bulgasaris.I went to take the right beacon with my kumiho and i managed to do it for a few seconds,as i killed enemy kumiho,but she was backed up by bulgasari that finished me off and cap back.I took a little look around and saw that my whole team is camping around home beacon,and realized that i cannot go alone for any of the beacons as they were heavily guarded by mulitple reds.Only thing i could do at that moment is to join the tea party with my bulgasari shocktrains and try to weaken the reds untill my team mates decide its time to push.But on my horror just a few moments after i droped my bulgasari whole map was swarming with bulgasaris and 1 lancelot! Litteraly no targets! Wherever i look its blue and shielded.My god what a waist of a bot as i have no time to break shields,because they have 4 beacons and time is running out fast,so i decided to sacrifice and push for any of the beacons.I have managed to get the center before i died and more importantly i inspired my team to start pushing too.Things escalated and whole hell broke loose on every front,right side,left side,center.Beacons changing collors every few seconds,dead bots everywhere.I look up and see 2min left and no beacon bar,only a blue pixel in the corner.But i see they are meching out,3 bots left and pushed all the way in to their base.We were spread out,holding 4 beacons and going for the last one.Showdown around their home beacon and the game ends.I didnt know who won untill i saw the green screen.Game was full of turnarounds and all kinds of excitements and fails like that moment when we had zeus and shocktrains and they had 5 bulgasaris and 1 lance,lol.

Great game indeed! During the end it got pretty hectic. Your description is spot on and very interesting to hear from the red perspective. Let me just add some late game shenanigans: Around 1-2 minutes before the end, while running an Orkan Haechi, I was caught in a brawl against a Taran Haechi. Close to one of the side beacons. It was pretty even. Neither of us made a mistake and no one could establish an advantage. I was also confident we would win and didn't pay much attention elsewhere. SO, there we are, dashing and dashing and firing and dashing, with no one taking damage. It went like this for, like 30 seconds - a minute max. Then, before I realize it, we are loosing 1-4 in beacons, my whole team was wiped out, an Ancilot tried to take our home beacon and everyone else marched towards our spawn point. Moral of the story: It's not over until it's over! Thanks again for the great match optimusprime !

frunobulax good fight yesterday at DC! You guys grabbed our right side beacon pretty early and didn't let go of it. 5 minutes into the match, i was already in my last bot, it was a real mayhem!

RedRaiderMy equipment simply doesn't measure up to yours. Possibly even my skills. I avoided contact after knocking that last smidge off your Bulgasari. I didn't want you taking that beacon and I certainly didn't want to be meched out too early. I merely got lucky with teammates. Every time I tried to get to a beacon I was astonished to find one of them actually taking it instead of walking right by it per usual. In fact I think you got my teammates by mistake. lol Can't squad anymore. FaceBook has been unavailable to use and invites through Custom mode do not register in the regular game mode invite list. I'm not a fan of Custom mode since no rewards are forthcoming for upgrade purposes. And I'm running low on Ag trying to get at least some of my stuff to 12. Possibly the FB list will be fixed in the next update. Not sure if I'm even going to be playing War Robots anymore when that happens. I'm awaiting my invite to the B.o.T. beta with eager fingers.

HEATHEN HERETICyou and me both.(BoT) After 3.8 it will be pointless to stay in Champion and without that motivation the game will die to me. I hate that because I really like playing this game. I'm holding out as long as I can. PIX will probably find their income drops below 11K here really soon with 3.8 out on iOS and Android. Right now it is at an all time low of 19K/day and going down. They have bled dry the whales and the little .99 purchases wont sustain them. 3.8 is a disaster and I am surprised they went there with upgrade times and costs. TBD BTW my hanger is not where I want it but I seem to manage. the big boys still have me for lunch.
