Fellow Pilots, In sports, players are credited with an “assist” for an act that immediately precedes a teammate’s scoring play. In our game, there are countless ways to create opportunities for teammates - beacon running, shielding, double teaming, flanking, and more. The common thread: this kind of play is selfless. It’s helpful. It makes your team win. In honor of all those pilots who do the little things, Pixonic and War Robots University are teaming up to recognize your efforts with a FREE ROBOT of your choice. The theme for week one, beginning TODAY February 5th, 2018, is "Taking One For The Team." You will use a shield, either physical or energy, to assist a teammate. I suggest viewing Dr. Droopy Sack's brilliant video dissertation on the double Ancile Carnage. To enter, capture screenshots or video of your work, and share it as a reply on THIS THREAD. Contest rules and advice at: warrobotsu.blogspot.co.uk/2018/02/the-art-of-assist-begins-today.htmlHave a great week, Dr. Yat

If it doesn't fit, don't force it. A good player is able to adapt playing with different players or game modes. It is a team game, five Shaq in a team is no match against a team with just one John Stockton.

Hey, Link to the video:
In the video I uploaded I was able to assist my teammates 3 times in 3 different ways.
1] Saving a teammate from the damage using my energy shield. 2] Saving a teammate from an enemy behind him who would have killed him. 3] Saving time for a teammate in making a beacon blue.
Thank you for reading! I hope I will win! (ID: 1KI6Q4, iOS)

Is it true heachi going be nerf Pixonic told content creators to expect a âmajor round of buffs/nerfsâ in 3.7, which is the next update after this one. They did not give any specifics. Lmao...probably means, in Pix-speak, something like this: Griff, Leo, Fury and Natty get 10k HP each. A token buff because Pix DGAF... Medium Ag mechs get 8k HP. Ditto above. Galahad...meh. Nobody cares at this point. Haechi's Dash is given a third charge, so it can better compete with Strider and Cockroach. Kumiho gets a third medium slot. Just cuz it's underpowered compared with the shielded Bulg and Haechi. Inquisitor gets an extra 15% HP. So it doesn't get gang-killed as soon as players see one. Schmucktrain damage nerfed 10%. What they don't tell you is now it chains an extra time and chaining damage is buffed. Redeemer gets reload buff. To redeem it from not living up to its name in any way. Though it still wouldn't...「whiskey tango foxtrot」 Cockroach...probably gets a firetrucking Ancile. This is Pix we're talking about.

Here I use the fujin's mighty ancile shield to shelter my fellow blues (a rhino and an ecu-bearing stalker, only the rhino is visible, and just barely at that) from the end of a rocket barrage while holding the winning beacon in King of the Hill on Shenzen. I regret that I have only this one screenshot; it apparently surprises me how challenging the task of screenshotting this action is. Name: WerdnaTheRed Pilot ID: RCY7FY Desired Prize: Hover

The Carnage is a natural when it comes to assisting your team. Since the introduction of TDM, its imperative to operate in conjunction with one (or more) of your allies for best results. Below, walking with members of the Iron Warriors, you can see that my Carnage has taken a beating, but still provides a bit of cover for the Warriors Captain, Cardinal Doink and a fellow Treb Fury during a Powerplant TDM match.

Hi! Here is my entry, I hope that a lot of people will participate. This event will definitively improve the sportsmanship in War Robots!
In this video I used a heavily protected Raijin to capture center Beacon and generally being the center of attention while that I lasted. I especially enjoyed blocking the shots of the Natasha sniper. ?
Have fun protecting each other, everyone!
Note: My usefulness might appear doubtful in the video, but the match ended in a crushing victory for our side thanks to my teammates who flanked the reds while that I was busy playing sponge. That goes to show, good teammates are everything.

Protected Rhino as much as I could (my carnage is only level 3 or something so it's slow) and got the reds home beacon.

Pilot ID: EO1KDY Pilot Name: SIK?555 Requested Robot: Kumiho Platform: Android Here is my 9/9 Ancile Carnage. I was supporting 2 bots with my shield in this first position for white a while while taking a lot of fire as they were attacking the enemy. I ran in to the open so I would be targeted and was getting shot at by about 4 bots at once but my shields were staying strong while my teammates were destroying everyone that was targeting me. I survived about 5 minutes in this bot being the main target for the other team while my team was free to attack the enemy without being fired at, only taking minimal damage until a Kumiho with 3 shocktrains made it his main priority to hunt me. I've done a few other games with the carnage like this since to support other players but this was the one I felt most helpful in. If I can figure how to record the screen I may upload a video.

King of the Hill. Well, neither of us felt like kings at that point. A broken Haechi and a beat-up Raijin had scrambled over the hill to take the far left beacon on Moon. Heavy opposition from both sides had been beaten back, and we had retreated into the tunnel to wait out the beacon change. Togerther, we endured volley after volley of aphids that tried desperately to dislodge us as the beacons turned - and together, we had held. iOS, Pilot ID 4XVUWL

Here I assist a Pinata/Thunder Leo in taking a beacon and putting pressure on the reds. We are able to damage and destroy four or five bots while I distract fire and cover him with my ancile, trying to stay out of each other’s firing lanes. We go on to win this match handily as my teammates are able to secure the center and far beacons.

I didn't get to use Raijin's physical shield at all since the reds had orkans, but the two anciles that I put on it gave it considerable regenerative energy shield capacity. My strategy here is to soak up as much damage - both energy and physical damage so my team can survive, attack, and get our team the advantage. Platform: iOS Player ID: 431MXD Prize: Inquisitor

Dear Professor, I would like to award the two red pilots on the two top places. They showed a very good teamplay defending eachother against the blue team. Unfortunately I don't have pictures of the battle itself. The battle started with a red pilot leaving, so blue had a very early 5:0 lead. It soon became clear though, that the remaining pilots fought like hell. The blue team was pushing hard, but those red pilots just plucked us from the battlefield. In the end it was only the sheer number of blue pilots that overpowered them, not good tactics (at least from my side). So, please consider this as a "Thank you!" from me for a very educational round of War Robots, and please consider these two pilots in your challenge. With the best wishes, Grumpy King

In this video, I use my Carnage's ancile to block a barrage of aphids headed towards a Griffin. (Unfortunately, my Carnage's shield wasn't enough to save both of us).

In this first picture, I used my ancile/orkan Leo to guard this Fujin on the move. in the pic, my shield has JUST been drained my a missile volley meant for the Fujin. Together, we moved to center and captured the first beacon in King of the Hill. In this shot, I used my Gareth to guard the Rhino. Since I was there, he could lower his shield and bring his full firepower to bear. Together, we held that side for almost two minutes. In fact, Once my Gareth died the Rhino survived so long (Since I had preserved his health) for my Stalker with 2 ECU to come and protect him for another couple seconds, and then we both died, hence this image. EVEN WITH THE LEO LACKING A HEAVY WEP AND THE STALKER LACKING ANY WEPS, I still got top beacon amount. I'm on Facebook Gameroom, Player name is Percy's Bane iD is MW664L It's a tough choice between Butch or Haechi, but I'm gonna want the Haechi if I win. It is more versatile and all purpose, even though the Butch is far more expensive.

Hello Dr. Yat, Helped my teammates liberate and capture 3 beacon. Our first and only bot used for the game. Got the win within 6 mins. Had to increase speed to fit the 90sec rule because I want the video to explain itself. Thanks a ton for hosting this. Bot choice- Spectre(if possible) or the Inquisitor.

Sometimes it's not just about protecting teammates, but the game objective. When all that stands between multiple reds and the center beacon is you, you'll be glad to be in the modified golem until backup can arrive. Holding out for 5 more seconds makes all the difference! Just won the golem in a bronze chest, but it sure is made to carry all the shields for a support bot!

This is my video for #WRassist, in which I use my Ember/Ancile Carnage and a Galahad to protect a clanmate in his Ancilot. We have fought many battles together, and thereâs nothing more 「deteriorated bum-bum」 than a two-man army, especially with some rock nâ roll! Itâs the best way to learn how to take care of a squadmate, without the pressure of full-clan battles. Hope you enjoy!
