Hey guys! Some of you may already know this but for those that don't.....
I run a couple of Curies so I'll tell you how I deal with a Shenlou attack. It's important to equip phase shift which I just so happen to run on Curie anyway, especially if the Shenlou attacking you has the new Qinting drone as it will instantly lock you down.
When Shenlou appears in front or behind me I instantly drop the turrets and hit phase shift for two reasons. To allow me to organise defensively and to release lock down. The tricky part is this. If you can run backwards in a straight line without stopping, (momentum is important!) when Shenlou teleports after you it will always appear in front of you. This works with any bot provided it's quick enough.
I run one nuke amp and two immune amps on many of my bots (except certain tanky bots) because in my opinion speed is everything. This gives me more than enough speed. It won't always be possible when in a tight space/map but once you become aware there is a Shenlou on the battlefield that may target you then try and put yourself in better position tactically so you're ready.
Just remember that backing up in a straight line will always force Shenlou to appear in front of you. That is key.
I hope this helps some of you! 😁

Shell is not a bad counter. Shield in front. Shield in back. Try to get me in the side. Nope... shield there too 「female dog」. Stick around, while I release little explosions on you. LOL!

It’s a sound strategy since it’s what I use for scorpions. Granted they only port once. Shenlou is the twisted little brother.

Shell is still a highly effective bot when played well. I still use mine from time to time. I like to switch things up from time to time. It can boring playing thw same bots over and over. Lol

Lol I completely missed the Shell meta. I only started using it during my Christmas 2023 themed hangar (gift wrapped skin), and discovered that I've been missing out. It really is a fun bot. Now it's in my main hangar 24/7.
