Excellent info, as always. Question: What is the significance of the Power value for each bot? They're really just arbitrarily created numbers to assign a power rating. It rises as stat numbers get larger and just gives you a teeny bit of info of what your current match looks like with total hangar power at the start of the match. It has no effect on MM. Because of total power being total power instead of an average, it doesn't say much. If nothing else it's being used as a measuring stick for players to give feedback on the AI. A full rank 3 hangar is 13-1600 power, rank 5 is around 2500 power, and end game hangars break 3K. So if something in the algorithm has a player that can only access rank 2-3 items going against 2K+ opponents, something has gone amiss. Even when the AI is extremely cruel and out for blood, the actual hangars aren't actually that far ahead. The oddball AI that's just there to kill everything because one of it's bots is worth 3 of what anyone else is using, is the outlier.

Good write up. One thing to note with manual targeting, you lose the option to lock on. Makes using javelin a pain.

The one thing MA is missing... No way to explore maps or practice outside of battle. You learn the ambush spots and shortcuts to your backside, by getting ambushed in the backside.

Yeah, maybe they'll include that in a future update. About the only place you could "practice" is to preview your control customization.
