Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get the Godlike since the timer ran out. Still, it's nice when I can get a string of kills greater than 2.

Idea for a shoot and scoot sniper build for a strider.
I’ve been thinking that the strider is a good mount for the railguns. Use it’s mobility and size to get into a good firing position, take your shots then dash to the next safe spot if the reds try to close in. If you take the Basil Legendary Pilot (+7.5%) Master gunsmith (+5% at T3) and powerman (+25% recharge speed at T4) you’ll buff the railguns from meh to ouchy.
I’ve used nucleon/quarker and dragoon/marquesse Striders as pop up snipers, and they do very good business. I prefer the nucleon/quarker because it not only has the tight initial burst out to 500m, but it also can keep up in a knife fight.

IMO our man Strider can roll out ANY build and be effective if played intelligently. Strongly agree that the nuc/quark loadout is very tough, it’s the best all purpose build that I’ve played. Support, sniping, knife fighting, pot shots, clean up...not just doable, but delivers excellent results in all categories.

That is the key with strider, patience and skill can make almost any build work. However, I think there are some builds the Strider doesn’t do effectively. Anything that requires it to be stationary for full effect, for example tempest/molot. For me the most versatile build is nucleon/spark or calamity/quarker, but you need to invest in Guidance Operator pilot skill to make it rock. I find the mix of taser and EMG cover each other’s weaknesses. I run nucleon/quarker because I lean a bit more to ranged shooting and a little less brawling.

As this thread approaches 2 years and going strong, I’d like to say I appreciate the continued interest and love some still have for Strider! For me, it all started back in 2019 when I watched some of BBs’ sucker punch videos, so I got me a Strider. I was soooo awful for some time, lol, but watched videos, practiced-even the Castle lower bridge deck deal(still only about 50% with that, many times hung up by my weapons, then blast red who shows up until I’m killed, lol), got better, learned super dash, and Strider is one of my most important bots I have today. I have also had the honor, and horror, of seeing a red bot moving all over the place, impossible places, then I see a Strider with BB attached to it! Game on, lol! Watching BB in this bot was much more impressive live than the videos, and usually did not end well for me. As for loadout, I’m currently running Glory/Shredders, but will change if the talked about Shredder nerf goes live. I also like Torch build, Freeze build, and Bug Zap build. So, Thanks Ogre for starting this thread, and thanks, BB, for your time and schooling!

Ogre and I were both nerding out HARD on Strider at that time, lmao. This thread was his idea, and I provided the imagery and hotdogging vids. Ffw to today...Ogre is on another hiatus and I’m still spazzing out in multiple Striders...which NEVER gets old because of the fun factor and its dynamic potential. This thread has stated it many times, once you get past the frustrating learning curve of getting around, Strider will reward you many times over. Same goes with any true skill bot. I honestly lost count of how many waves of new meta bots that pix has foisted upon us over the months...and my Striders are still relevant and formidable. 🍻

I have tried something different with my Strider...I am using Jump module, and I save dashes first drop to cap Bacon, then have the dashes for my next move.....and catching reds off guard by jumping instead of dashing during knife fights. Anyone else try this? Is my idea a good one, or not? It is pretty fun!

I don’t know if it’s good, bad, or otherwise but I just made it through an entire match on PowerPlant in my Strider. Didn’t even drop the Nodens because I was curious about my stats. I spent a lot of time around A and B where there were some souped up very tanky Fenrirs. I guess I did okay? At least I didn’t die.

Manni did a few vids awhile back where he peed his pants over how good he was at clearing great distances with jump Strider.

Had one this morning on PowerPlant where I was going after the beach beacon w a rando blue. Red Fenrir and Ao Jun coming in hot to contest our authority. I dodged the incoming flames and watched the Ao Jun duck behind the cargo ship for cover...and the illusion of safety, bruhahahah. Engage jump mod and stagger the Boom Box of Sonic weapons (1.9, 1.10, 1.11) to make short work of that ex-king of meta. A quick dash back to beacon to help finish off the Fenrir to secure the beacon and the win. Missed a screenshot of that one. This one was Carrier and I capped every beacon at least once and red spawn twice, lol. I almost lasted the whole match in Strider. Not 10 slices, and not much damage, but driving S-Clan duo crazy...priceless!

So I ran Super Sonic for a while and had some good kills with it - not many expect that kind of firepower on a Strider. But idk, I just wasn’t feeling it and we know how important it is to “feel” it w Strider; if the SuckerPunch isn’t flowing through you, you are doomed. So I’m back to this classic, but now it’s backed by a wicked drone (20% Surpression, 20% LD, 10% Freeze, 30% Revit Intensifier and the 10% on 70k repair chip). 1v1 it just made short work of a Scorp in mid Champions League. But forget all that, look how shiny!

Not an especially sexy number for damage, but I'm proud to say that I spent the entire match on Shenzhen in my lone Strider.

Please pardon me for the bragging, but getting high kill streaks is pretty unusual for me. In general, I tend to wear guys down then have somebody else take my kills.
Just got a Godlike + 1 with my little buddy.

I don't see Striders often but when I do, I definitely target them because this is a bot that usually has someone with skill behind it.

Poopface very nice fellow SuckerPuncher! You are rounding into form with those rockets. Whats it been, a few months now with your new besty? Great proof that commitment to the ways of The SuckerPunch pays off handsomely. Robot murder is just better in a Strider.

I can only imagine it gets better once you finish screwing around and level everything up to more respectable levels than I have.
