My main hangar as it stands today.
My unused Bots/weapons: - Fujin
- Fury
- Rogatka
- Doc
- Stalker
- Gepard
- Triple Aphids
- Triple Tridents
Preface: I mainly run a CQC knifer hangar with the occasional TT Fury. I find myself constantly switching things up for the better or worse.
- I cannot decide which set up to use with Rhino and Griffin, I am constantly switching their configurations. I like orkans on rhino but its sometimes better on the griffin since it can leap and lay fury on the team. But I find it more useful to have orkans on the rhino. Can somebody fill me in the pros and cons for using Rhino with either set up? I am truly at a conflict with this one.
- I have enough gold for a Gareth, should I just replace Griffin with a gareth? or would a griffin be more useful than a gareth? or should I just use the gold on switching griffin to Orkans?
- Is it better to use Lancelot with Orkans or Tarans? I am constantly switching between them and finding neither to be more useful than the other.
- Should I level up my LV1 Fujin or LV1 Rogatka at all? I feel Rogatka is obsolete and the Fujin is too squishy (they were last used before the ancile buff so fujin could be better)
- Is there any viable set ups I should switch my focus to?
I am curious to see what you guys have to share!

What league are you in? Based on previous observations that I have found, I believe that the 350K damage mark is gold. In that place, I would use Taran Magnums or Orkan Magnum Rhino. Otherwise with any setup, use it on the Griffin. Griffin and Gareth are two different styles of bots. A Gareth is more fun, but a Griffin is by far more practical and useful. As for the Ancile Lancelot, use Thunder Orkans or Ancile Taran. Ancile Orkan has too little firepower and you may as well use a Ancile Pinata Leo since you will be behind cover and not taking advantage of your Ancile. Rogetha is obsolete. Fujin is a Rhino alternative; anti-Plasma vs anti-Splash.
A Tulumbas Doc is one of those builds you should focus on. One of the best midrange bots, aside from the Trident Fury.

I would only suggest bringing out the LV1 Fujin or LV1 Rogatka if it is something you would enjoy piloting. Just be sure the other four mechs are competitive, you don't need to handicap yourself too much. Although getting the Fujin anywhere is a pain even when at Bot level 9 with its awesome 40km/h speed. -_-

I recently played with the league system for a bit, I was placed into Diamond II. Check my current hangar out, my stats seems to have improved by a large margin since the new League system kicked in recently and with the help of your advice.
Taking your advice, you're right about the Ancile thing. Yes, the Ancile gives Lancelot some serious survivability but it's useless compared to the ECC thunder. As a result, I now kill much more with the Lancelot.
After receiving bonus gold from the league system, I've decided to save up gold for either another Lancelot or a Galahad. I've been also thinking about adding another Thunder Carnage to my lineup since it's a damn beast.
I also did some calculating, I found the Doc to be worthless compared to a Trident Fury since the raw DPM Fury output is much higher than the Doc so I'll leave him to rot in the storage.

To your OP, my thoughts are:
1) Prefer plasma Rhino to remind me to stay out of Rockets range, but both setups are good 2) I would pass on Gary with your lineup 3) Thunder Ork Lance. Quickest way to kill things with your Lance. 4) Both bots seem to be suboptimal right now, but if you like em, go for it!
The lineup you just posted looks great! I run the exact same thing, except I use a DB Griff instead of Rhino, and an Aphid/Ork Griff while my Fury levels up.
