Some interesting things in this episode. Custom battles, wuhoo! Disc launcher delayed, boo! New spider mech with mini spiders as it's ability, cool!

Not a word on clans, but def some good stuff coming... from what they said.
Hope they work on the optimization side of it, sooner than later, a few players are having control problems...
I like the turret mech idea, I'm big into the support role and would def jump on that.

Haven't had time to watch yet, but I definitely appreciate the creativity. I get the feeling that they might be delaying clan inclusion into the game in part because the current clans are mostly handling things on their own. Just a guess, but many are already super organized anyway, so maybe they're thinking "why push". It's a mistake IMO, but it makes sense.

custom games is a good interim solution for clans. I'd rather they focus on global release ASAP.

What's wrong with the ear ring?? I've got studs in both my ears. It was kinda my "mid life crisis" thing. Cheaper and safer than fast cars and women more than half my age!
As for the spiderbot....as a support mech, I doubt it'll have more than 18EN, and if the mini spiderbots are useful, aka have built in guns, then I bet the max EN will be 12EN. If the mini spiderbots have guns, then I hope they are targetable cause it would make so much sense and be so cool. You could use the mini bots as a distraction, so your enemy targets them instead of you. You can use them to fool scouts and their JR and RM partners and get them to waste ammo.
If the mini bots work like that, I think I will pause my plans for another RG16 mech and just wait and see cause that would the variety I need/want for this game. I already have 2 anti tank bots in my hangar, Thanos Guardian and CB12 Panther; I have my sneaky sucker punch JR6 Shadow and my super annoying Elsa Panther, so it's really only my KS that I would consider shelving.

So… the counter to the mini-spiders would be a stomp Mech? Something with big feet to squash ‘em or a Raid bug spray as an ability. Just saying |

Just my prediction but I don't think the minibots will have guns at all. This game has 1 mechanic that separates it so much from war robots and that is the scouting mechanic. I think this mini Spiders will be scouts since if they are also be able to shoot I think they need an Ai for their targeting since it will be hard to control even just 2 targeting units at the same time and speaking of AI targeting we all know how AI+LA work which is just not fair. However being able to scout an area is usefull especially with JR and MR builds. |

Yes, and since every other mech has just two weapon hard points, minibots with guns would give it quite the unfair advantage. If they’re going to be targetable, just the fact that they’re there will be problematic enough. |

Imagine if this thread is for a PIX Dev Blog. We will be like, off course those minibots will be armed with weapon that can shoot too and can 1 shot a 2.12 fenrir and will be using aim bot. |

My money is on Guardian, Cheetah, Redox and Zephyr's abilities completely knocking the mini-spiders out of commission.

Ok, I'm good with the mini spiderbots not having guns, but they should still be targetable so that not only Guardian, Cheetah and Zephyr and KS can kill them. Making them targetable can also mess with your opponents weapons if you get cornered and might buy you that extra second or two to get away or kill your opponent. I think maybe I'll hold off on cloning my RG16 or getting Redox until we find out more about this spider mech.
