✧✦Ŋɫתʃɑ✦✧ Yes target selection is a big factor. I was talking about patience in waiting 2 seconds till your target stops moving, changes direction or peeks out from cover. Helps if you don't rely on the big red button. DB Griff is better suited if you are jumping in on somebody or if you really like that big red button. AO Griff is better for letting your enemies come to you, firing from behind cover, or hitting from outside DB range. It also prevents Plasma Griff from kiting you. I don't like suiciding my bots, so I prefer using Aphids.

Aphids are still very much in play. Whether as part of a Stuka or Ambush Griffin, they work. The arc/trajectory and tracking accuracy were nerfed, but Aphids are still a force.

I still see at least 1 Patton or Gep or Leo sporting those bad boys every 3 or 4 games. But see them on Galas and Griffs pretty commonly. OP, I say that Aphids have a definitive niche carved out for themselves that is not going away bc pinatas can reload while firing.

So now the perfect balance is to run both Stuka and DB setups it seems.

I think we will have to see just how the new stuff shakes out... but I feel like it will make more of an impact on other builds, tbh. Like the Taran + Pinata Galahad. You don't see those near as much as the Ork Mag Gala... or even more of the full splashahad. I was very much against this at first... for a few reasons that will just take up space now, but I don't think it will be a game changer after watching the test server vids.

I play on PC with some very weird key bindings, so I avoid to use different range stuff. Might have to put a macro software to arrange buttons on my mouse if that happens.

Yeah it can be a bit of a pain even on the dang touchscreens to be precise with separate weapon ranges. In the case of Plasma (350) and Short Range Splash (300m) I will fire individually the Plasma until about 275m , then will press the B.R.B. Keeps it as simple as can be. As far as emulators, I wish I knew your pain! Its been a minute since I have had a PC at the house lol.

ⓣⓡⓘⓒⓚⓨ48You really get precise moves when playing on PC, aiming especially with Orkans is much better than on the phone, the issues are; Lag if you dont have yourself an intel processor, since most emulators have better compatibility with them. Controls might lock sometimes, but you get used to it and in the long run doesnt even matter at all. I have an AMD FX 8150 so I play on slowmo sometimes lol.
