Anyone else being absolutely clobbered by the new bots? I seem to have hard time even denting. Its the super F chips (most of the reason you cant kill them) that are killing the game for me and horrible matchmaking. Many games I am the only blue champ and there will be 2 thru 4 champs on Red team. Lots of leavers or disconnects as well. |

Demeter is the most difficult to handle for me so far. Shell can be handled by Fenrir with flames and Orochi by lockdown Scorpion. But Demeter with phase shifts are serious pain 😅. Healing, shields, huge teleportation distance to ally and we need to deal with those phase shifts as well 😤. |

Dementors can somewhat handle(they're the reason my Shell and Hawk run sheildbreaker now though). Orochi is a tough nut, but not certain other might be new Titan? |

Lately duo has been as bad or worse as far as matchmaker goes for me....... Oh well remember boys and girls Pix loves us, each and every player.  |

Orochi is a tough nut, but not certain other might be new Titan? I run two bots with shield breaker, it really ruins some peoples day when they are in the wide open thinking they are invincible. Orochi is supper soft just time it right when you shoot. I have one and am already thinking of pulling it. The new Titan, OMG if maxed with a smart player!!!! Game ruining IMO. |

And don't forget that you also likely get matched up with 「wee-wee」heads, too. |

Getting smashed by the high level chip exploit dorks, but mid level and below provide a nice gang bang opportunity. The juiced up, jumping, purple shield Shells are effin ridic when starting match. They just roll through everything on their legal clubbing spree.

I need to think about equipping Shieldbreaker on something...maybe my plasma Raven, drop it and go all Stuka on the Demeters. Maxed Tarans and Magnums don't do squat on Shells but against unprotected normies, I have fun.

Shells still remain the bane of my life. It`s really disheartening to see several of them come charging across the map (and at that point you just know they`re going to be high level) knowing that the sonics and EMG`s which I`ve previously been levelling on most of my bots will cause them none/hardly any damage at all. Whereas they can run around killing everything else with almost total impunity. The other new OP bots are a real pain too but at least I don`t feel like it`s just a total waste of time trying to fight them like I do with all the Shells that I encounter. So now I`m levelling flames and ice which I`ve disregarded in the past but it takes so long that you never really seem to catch up before some new stuff makes everything else obsolete again.

I totally agree with your upgrade pain. I think/maybe/kinda/sorta if you level some: Flames (really great against Shells.) Cryo Taser EMG Pulsar/Magnetar/Shredder Lead Hose You may be able to handle the meta peaks and valleys. Flamey bomb weapons? Nope. Sonics? Not really. Taser/Freeze weapons? Hopefully not. Flamey/Bomb looks fun but I don't need them to hang with the whales. The above list of weapons have already seen their nerfs and can be effective at 2.1+ when you have the right rock/paper/scissor match-up against a Red bot. |

I find that Shield Breaker on my Ao Jun’s work well on the purple shield bots. Also waiting a few seconds after the purple umbrellas pop open before opening fire helps also. Shield breaker doesn’t seem to last as long as the shield, so little to no ammo is wasted. I tend to keep my thumb on the fire button once I start shooting.
