@zlo It is rare, because everybody play setons for large scale late game battles with huge economies. Also the player base is small enough so you can remember every player that does chees. Except for opti when you dont know who is your opponent, that exactly what happened to me.
Im not sure how the map can be a problem as it is one of the most iconic maps in the game.

Nerf transports loaded with t1 assult bots
The fact that t1 transports can fly around with t1 assult bots and act like a gunship is insane.
On big maps like setons this tactic in an early stage is too easy to execute and too hard to counter as you need both air and ground forces in the area to deal with this.At least nerf their damage while they are in the transport, this thing can swoop through your mexes without stopping and all your mexes will be destroyed, I had t1 turret in place, but bots destroyed turret faster then t1 turret destroyed the transport.
Here is a replay, where 1 t1 transport destroyed half of my economy (bottom rock) and continued to destroy air player economy.

Also I dislike the improvement in transport drop speed as all it did is buffed all this cheesy early game strategies. In early game you dont have a t2 or t3 radar and you dont have sufficent air force to stop transports from dropping anything in the area. This gives a big advantage to any player that decides to go for a drop. To the point when the only way how you can counter a drop, is to go for your own drop.
