After a long grind, I managed to unlock #5 today! I was pretty excited when I hit 5,001 Au, so I spun the wheel (bronze chest) and won a Leo. I suppose it was meant to be? The problem is, I have no idea what to do with it. I see lots of Thunder/Mag versions out there, but I've only got one mag (level 7). I was honestly not expecting to hit this slot and bot so soon (I won 1k Au in another bronze box earlier, which really advanced my timeline), so my weapons stash is somewhat of a mess. Currently, I'm fitting it out with some pinatas and I've moved my old Vityaz into position as a second midranger, but I'm not sold on the configuration. I'm honestly tempted to drop the Vit and put another Cossack in the mix... Anyone have any advice about what I should do with this lineup?  |

Thunder pinata is good especially if you need more splash. |

I dont really know where to start with this Hangar. Might as well drop the Vitz for a Leo to gain another molot and some HP. I'd probably move the Tarans and magnum onto a new Griffin for a Plasma Griff setup. Roll with 2 Griffs, 2 Leos and a Punisher MK2 Cossack until you can get more WSP and Gold Bots/weapons. Although swapping out the Vitz for a second RDB Griff would probably net you more damage and thus more Ag.

You have my full support. |

If the current opponents tend to be bad with beacons, then another Cossack isn't that bad. Their tarans can be used for galahads when you switch up to better bots. Play more and find out if you need more fire power or beacon capturing power, you also need to be able to defend beacons.
Do drop the vityaz, it's an eye sore. Grab another boa, griffin or Leo. If you like molots, griffin. Another pinata Leo or rdb griffin can work as well.

You can be a scuzbag like me and strap 2x high lv Ecu, a Pinata+ Thunder on it and watch as all of the non rocket/shield heavy bots helplessly try to kill you before you unload a thunder in their face at point blank.

I'd run either a close range golem(pin,Taran,thunder) , a close range Vityaz (pins, thunder), or another Boa (Taran, thunder). These options will only cost you a Taran (which can be a punisher mk2 until you get the wsp). The pins, thunders and Tarans will stick with you for a ways at least until low Gold. The thunders go on a carnage and the tarans and pins go on rhinos or Griffins (all solid Gold bots).

I have just got my 5th slot too during the event with the free 1000 gold LOL. And I have the same line up as you too (except swap the cossack with a Patton)
I'm also tossing up between another Boa or RDB Griffin. hard choice given the current MM won't make my either choice to be effective! @@

Congrats on the 5th slot.
If you don't have an immediate guy to fill that slot right now, could be a good idea to use that slot as a 'wild card'. Try some unconvential / fun setups that you think could be interesting. Unless you're gung ho about putting forth your utmost competitive hangar in every match, could be refreshing to try something 'just for fun'.
