 As the title suggests I am looking for any other Nemesis fans out there. I just recently workshoped this and had the crazy luck to pull an ultimate orkan. Wondering if anyone else has as much fun as I do in this bot? Needless to say please share your Nemesis builds (if you have them). I'd love to see if you guys see this bot as a hidden gem like I do. |

I don't have a Nem myself, but mass respect for running it. Quality. I still see them occasionally in expert, but it's a rare breed with the minerals to try.
You might find a fellow afficionado here.

The robot seems decent, but is not for everyone, kinda like the Blitz. I know Poopface tried one out, if he wants to share his experience. |

I used the custom pilot to trigger the shield as much as possible. I see what you're doing with that pilot and can see where that'd work. I didn't want to shell out all the green crack so I avoided that. I can also see where the Ultimate Orkan would be great. I used the BSGs on mine and that worked pretty well. I recommend having a lot of speed to get in/out of trouble quickly. Also I used Glider drone along with Phase Shift so I had the get-out-of-jail card in case I was getting screwed over by extra nasty baddies.
With how the game currently is, I don't know that I'd try it any higher than Expert league. Far too many Lynx/Nether/Okiedokie now (plus the incoming 6gun 「whiskey tango foxtrot」 robot).

I like me a Nemesis. Running one again in a few months time and I'm looking forward to it.

Luckily I'm not in a higher league. I have been staying around low to mid diamond league due to gear, matchmaking, and just trying to have fun.
I can see where it is a hit or miss, as everything that isn't meta needs a timeless ability to even be relevant anymore. I have found using it as a peek-a-boo bot works quite well. I have also found great results as acting as a pseudo support bot by following tanky bots and providing them my shield.
Unfortunately I don't think people realize the there is potential for almost complete coverage of absorbers with only two nemesis bots. Factor in the pilot and boosters and there is around a one second discrepancy. Would love to try I but I don't have the pilot or know anyone else who has a nemesis.

There are plenty of folks here who remember the Ares Train era. What you're talking about - pairing up and alternating shields - but the Ares was just the more common choice at the time. Powerful tactic but it wouldn't stand up like it used to. Not with stabby Lynx on the prowl |

Was running 2.4 Nemesis with 2.4 Mace just recently in Masters League II. It was a lot of fun and did pretty well as long as I was not bombarded by the current meta. Spiky weapons will put you down fast.  |

Hades lover here, but I do have mad respect for Nemesis. I think we're both in the same boat of our beloved robots being forgotten. It's always Ares that gets the good stuff too! Ares gets a great pilot that removes it's biggest downside, a buff that removes it's speed debuff while it's shield is up, and as the cherry on top, and Ultimate Edition too! Meanwhile Hades and Nemesis are stuck with the 2 worst LPs in the game. Nemesis gets a pilot that barely increases your ability duration, and Hades has a pilot that increases your gun range by 100 meters which is worthless. Buff the other Pantheon bots Pixonic!
