Any decent video showing Hydra Fujin? No video needed. Step 1: Waddle up only as far as you have to. Step 2: Plant yourself. Fire Hydras. Aim for someone with low health who's trying to take pot shots at teammates, if possible. Otherwise, shoot someone with a lot of plasma, because you're allergic to them. Step 3: Waddle away! Reds saw you and they'll be killing you shortly. Step 4: If a kind-hearted Blue saved your bacon then go to Step 1.

If you harass anything on the other team with aphids, your teammates will actually appreciate you. Hydras are the anti aphids, the way Tridents are the anti Brit bots.

I would suggest both, JIC you are good with either.
Real quick, something to keep in mind... And I get into a little of the details below. WSP bots are all bots that have really strong, yet situational, abilities that coincide with a weakness. If used with the weaknesses and strengths in mind, accounting for the weaknesses with good situational awareness, and utilizing the strengths when the time is right, they can be some of the best bots in the game. But, you truly have to learn it well enough to be able to get the most out of it. From the Stalker to the Raijin.
As to the OP:
If you choose Rhino, ensure you take the time to learn it well before deciding... I shelved it at first after a couple of games... I had already had a Galahad or 2, so that is how I approached driving the Rhino. When its limitations became clear (as far as the comparison with Galas) I thought I didn't like it. I went back to it after a month or two, after maturing and seeing a few vids and how my clanmates used theirs, and realized that it wasn't the problem. I was. It isn't comparable to any other bot, really. You have to drive it like a Rhino. I grew to like it, and have put it back into rotation. Not as much as some people, but I definitely use it.
Fujin, if you choose this... you will have to figure out its quirks too. At first, it is a little difficult to utilize the shield at the correct time. And getting used to the legs and how they can snag on things, and how quickly Plasma will melt you like a piece of ice dropped on a sidewalk in the middle of June in the South. However, there are some good setups for it, and it has it's own place in my hanger. I tend to use it midrange the most, tulumbus usually, but occasionally Hydras if I am in a mood. But triple Tarans are a straight up terror against other ancile bots, and will take down a Galahad's, Lancelot's, or a Rhino's shield very quickly if you are given the time to do it (Be a flanker, not a 「go solo」er!). 3 Orks... well, not much will survive a full salvo that actually connects, and if you are 1v1 vs a a DB Rhino and you have your Ancile raised, if you lose it is your own fault!
In short, I say both, but for the first one... maybe choose the one that is most going to fit your style, and take your time to learn it. Rhino will power run and cap and flank like a beast. Fujins will shine when in choke points, with good cover against Shield bots not carrying plasma, and as a midrange platform it can be very good in certain situations... just not as consistent as the RDB.

Rhino? Pfffft! I had one for about a week and sold it. It was like driving my 1965 Chevy C10 step side with no power steering... But at least my Chevy had a 350 v8, Edlebrock carb and high rise manifold, and a suicide knob so you could actually turn the S.O.B. I love my fujin. Decked out with twin Orkans and a Hydra to piss people off with. Fujin fo' life CRACKA!

But a Navy mechanic buddy of mine took it off the steering column and put it on the floor. Reverse was all the way back. Up one was first, another one up second gear, one more up was third. She was a mean machine

But if you do not want to oversteer, drop the shield and turn. The transition of the shield takes 2 seconds to recharge, so all you need to do is: 1)drop shield 2)turn in desired direction 3)2 seconds after step 1, raise shield again and charge That way, whoever it is that you are running down has only a 2 second window to attack you (did my testing on a thunder magnum Natasha that I hunted and killed in the streets of Shenzhen)
