I've seen you running Taran on the Demeter and wonder if you've got a specific reason for it.
Idk I actually think your blues did pretty good. Yea you seemed to be the only one pushing for and past center. But overall your blues (not counting you) got more beacons than reds, were down a guy, and were up against a duo. I see your point about not pushing control beacons, just saying though.

I see your point about not pushing control beacons, just saying though. I’ve only got the 2 havocs, and from the other weapons I have available I like the tartan the best. I actually only had 2 tarans as well but as luck would have it I won one opening a silver chest the other day (to get a super chest). I’m leveling that now and will use tarans when the Sonics get nerfed the point of the video wasn’t to say how crappy the blues did. Because as I stated, it was a winnable game, even a man down and going against a duo. But we lost because I was basically the only person doing anything regarding trying to keep beacon control. You just can’t play like that and expect to win |

ʂɬɛɛƖ : 11 kills and 11 beacons? Well... You coulda tried harder.  And the reds did play well; kept the pressure on seemingly all beacons. Man those Ravana/Sonics ARE a PitA. I can see why you hate them. I have only two Havocs as well and was considering Tarans because of your Demeter build. Ty.

An absolute joke and I cannot wait till the sonic nerf to yet again cut its ranks some im quite impressed with tarans, given their age and cost. I’ve tested out the full build (2 maxed, the new one at 1.2) and can’t say I was disappointed. Difficult to switch while Sonics still en Vogue but when their not, giddy up |

Are you saying you should be able to use those to counter it’s ability? |

I hear ya. I think you could've won it too. Carrier and Yam are two of those maps where as long as pressure is kept on red's home then there's no reason to lose. Can't tell you how many times, especially in a Loki on Yam, that I've occupied all the reds and watched my blues not move forward. These are smh moments.
I like Tarans too, I think they're a sleeper that not everyone pays attention too with all the flashy new shiny around. I was double checking their stats last night and was amazed at how much they output. They're bursty too. I think bursty generally outperforms sustained.

It’s phase shifty 🐂💩
And yes, all negative effects should remain when someone uses either 🚮 abilities

Are you saying you should be able to use those to counter it’s ability? Yeah. Unless transcendence is more a Phase shifting type thing, even then ... every offense should have a defensive counter available. Plus all negative effects should not be removed when it uses the ability. I don’t consider Ravana all that strong at my level.....the ability lasts 2 whole seconds. And, yes, it is more of a PS, not stealth. Many princess bots, like Typhon, Ares, Leech, Nightingale, Scorpion, Hawk..... have much stronger and longer lasting abilities. |

Most meta far more dangerous....but, I’m in expert, my Ravana is 1.9 with, yes, 1.10 Tarans. They punch hard, look and sound awesome! |

In my experience, Carrier is the one map that makes it glaringly obvious that the MM factors for beacon running strength.
When you are the ONLY one on your team pushing the action, its smoking gun evidence of the almighty MM at work IMO. My sample size is embarrassingly large with this map and my hangar preference.
IMO the problem with passive play is that passive players shouldn’t be playing a game of engagement in the first place.

It may be fun (to some) but it’s far from balanced when I see them. Well over 400hp when maxed that moves around the map way too quick with 4 abilities (with Poe and pilot skill) and 4 seconds of PS that happens every 26.5 seconds. Havocs that can dish out 375k of unhealable damage... it’s a joke. Lag allows them to hit you while you don’t hit them. You can never get negative effects to do the job they’re intended to do. Absolutely 🚮🚮🚮 obviously, it’s the havocs that are the bigger issue, but the delivery system is broken. There should be longer breaks in between abilities. They should get rid of the quartermaster skills or disallow them on certain bots and transcendence and PS should not remove negative effects |

I think this often as I have endless games of me having as many beacons as the rest of my team combined... I absolutely hate that more than anything else |

IMO the problem with passive play is that passive players shouldnât be playing a game of engagement in the first place. Although you have a right to your opinion, many are younger kids playing, and a whole bunch of folks play games for fun, not to âwinâ or âcompeteâ. Besides, and for the billionth time, no matter what set of randos Iâm blessed to play with on my âteamâ, I still win half of the time.....bummer is, I lose about half of my battles...... Not sure why folks who have played for years still donât get this. You do, however, do get the run for fun not for Pix profit....but who gives a rats 「bum-bum」 about winning a 50% game unless your dropping 15-20 grand or so a year for top honors? |

I also have garbage drones. Im sure Mr. Whale can make any bot sing wonderfully. As for me, I am so tired of the prison hugging....I’ll take Titans any day over crap bots like Leech, Scorpion, Ares....... |

And the reds did play well; kept the pressure on seemingly all beacons.
