Learn to bait them into using their Shields and then blitz them once it goes down. A Shieldless Ares is very weak. Lockdown ammo works quite well on those as well.

Don't tank. Besides, there are Ares in every league by now. Just learn to play more cautious. Stop running around corners blindly, and learn the counters.

Yeah sure, tank all you want....I'm jealous of all your free time. Back when tanking was easier, it was a huge waste of (lots of) time.
Btw, I run Ares, and Ares vs Ares play is predictable and boring. The bot makes you stick to cover, which isn't my preference.
I also run Ao Jun, and I especially look out for purple bubbles....time your flight and position to burn them up during their cooldown.
I also run Hover, and I use the Scourges to force them to raise their bubble when they don't want to, usually from far off. I can also sometimes get to an attack angle to reach them from above.
I also run Pursuer, and get inside their bubble to say hi.
Ares is obviously just a cash cow ploy, and will be nerfed, as Spectre/Haechi were before.
They got me on Haechi, but not again, I don't need 10k cups every season.

Don't bother, as above, I'm in D1 and Ares, Ao Jun, other princess bots, are everywhere.
I share your frustration but otoh my timing and ambushing skills are climbing.

I hate Ares too, but I'm going to keep fighting them and they are very killable if you're careful.

Agree on your comment about tanking. Ares in Champions League are not easy to bait, or kill. And even after you go through all, and succeed in killing,or inflicting damage on, one it does not pay enough. Ares, and Ares trains, are a pandemic which needs to be stopped. The upcoming rebalance is not a cure.

Taking down an Aries is a matter of timing. Once the sheild is down they are glass cannons. I consistently take them down with my Ao Jun, Pursurer and Specter. All three are stealth bots.
1. Find cover near by. 2. Make sure your weapons have a full load. 3.Target Lock while the shield is up. 4. As soon as their purple under pants fall off, turn on Stealth mode and attack.
If you just run at an Aries while it's shield is up there is not much of a chance your bot will get the kill. But if you use cover and time it just right, more often then not your bot will be the victor. If the Aries you are attacking has Quantum Radar then thats a different story. But you wont find out until you attack.

So it seems like every game is 2 to 3 Aries at the same time. Especially pre-made parties. Ran into 2x Aries protecting a heavily geared Fernir. That was a nightmare to kill and made me want to exit that game as quickly as possible. The only Nerf I want to see it at least remove the shield when he's firing his secondary weapons.
