There's no such use, it's like the Janus but the damage is even more spread out over time, still can be moved out of, and it's a one use unit

RE: T2 used for sniping just makes for a sad game
couple things.
- if they snipe once they will probably do it again, t1 scouts are not expensive
- If they were able to put that much mass into t2 snipes then you were doing something wrong.
- the mercy wasn't nerfed, it was reworked, its a shit rework but not a "nerf"
- in all this time what was the person sniping mirrors doing?
- And this is honestly my biggest point. It is no share, if you expect people to not snipe you'd have to be a fool.
- green the Aon in this replay 21703955, could've easily pumped swiftwinds which are almost on par with asf, its a air issue in that game, green was thinking late game, yellow was thinking early game. early game wins almost every time in no share which is why the only time people ever play no share is gap, astro, and millenium and its variants.
but im just a lowly 1700, could be right could be wrong. granted rating means nothing when if i really wanted to grind it i could just spam out astro games have my t3 arty done by minute 18.

RE: Another Novax conversation
I think novaxes are relatively fine as they are, Maybe a slight balance change, but you have to remember a novax is 36k mass iirc, 2 of them costing about the same price of a t3 arty +/- 2k mass, but the damage output is nowhere near t3 arty, yeh arty doesn't have the precision of a novax, but a novax doesn't have the damage of an arty, it takes 2-3 artys of novaxes to be able to penetrate anything heavily shielded, and at that point you could have a Game Ender up.
Yes maybe there could be a way to shoot down novaxes, but the day that happens i guarantee the novax will essentially be the next mercy, and if your opponent has time to build a novax and not get punished that is you not doing your job.
Maybe something could be done about the damage, but if your nerfing damage you have to give it something else, someone mentioned more aoe, but then would that give it shield spill at that point which would arguably be even better than it is now, or then you have to think "oh shit, they can hit two pgens at the same time" which will kill your grid faster, makes targeting engies much more worth, etc, etc...
Something as simple as a damage nerf or way to shoot it down wouldn't work.

RE: Where is Gyle?
@Kilatamoro Sometimes people have unforeseen issues pop up or just lose interest in the game unfortunately, he does still post on patreon (relatively) frequently however.

RE: Nothas cant kill chicken
@jip me and malth thank you, pissed off about it because nothing could be done, do nothas not damage any units or just chickens?

Nothas cant kill chicken
the first game has 2 mods on for 2x and hives for all with people, the second one was unmodded and just me in sandbox
somewhere in the middle of the game, about 60 nothas total go for one chicken
later in the game at the very end i send 6 and they do ZERO damage.
around 11:30 the nothas got a ton of hits and did nothing then same this at the very end
tried it in a sandbox and still nothing
