Havoc Typhon with the new pilot is srs bsns

So this is the MK3 Warrior Typhon with the Champion skin running 4 MK3 Fatal Havocs, 2 MK3 nuke amps, and a lowly level 1 anticontrol. River Chase pilot with Armor Expert, Crazy Electrician, Wonderworker, Energy Shield Expert, and I'm working on Road Hog.

1. Yes, it's a glass cannon, especially in the meta with chicken pilots who shoot through shields. So a big key here is playing defensively and trying hard not to be seen as a useful target. This means taking paths on maps that offer the most cover.

2. Another big asset in playing low-key is that you won't be in many long battles. Most bots will die in about two seconds; tanks might take four or five. Like anything else, the red squad's coordination will determine how much you get away with, but even against teams, some people will die so fast they might legit not know how. (See what happens to the fellow Typhon at 04:45.)

3. Other than trying to sneak behind a Murometz before it lands (which is just so, so satisfying) I'd resist the temptation to take on titans until you're ready to abandon this bot and move on. You can take a good chunk (maybe a fifth) of a Luchador with it on the way out, to be sure.

4. I dropped the nebula drone here because I expected to face Fenrirs; if I didn't know what I was facing I'd probably have gone whiteout, because honestly, most of what you're shooting at isn't going to be alive long enough to make the extra shielding a big deal. But Fenrirs are durable enough to shoot a couple times, and uncomplicated enough that whiteout doesn't really bother them.

5. As with any bot, favorable matchups are the name of the game. This Typhon excels at eating tanks and any fast-moving robot it can lock down. It needs to avoid weather chickens, titans, and snipers.
