toss puts cannons in min line, so if u dont target u waste 3 tank shots. thats potentially bout 7-10 probes. do the math | ||

If you let them shoot by theirselves, they're shoot at the same target most of the time. You want to target probes that aren't close together, so the splash damage does it's effect. A tank kills a bunch of probes in 1 shot, without the needed splash damage from the 2nd tank you will kill 2 probes in the first volley. 2 is not a bunch of anything. | ||

A tank kills a bunch of probes in 1 shot, without the needed splash damage from the 2nd tank tank damage is 70 explosive, so hitting a probe does about 35 damage. How is that enough to kill a probe in one shot? Don't you need extra splash damage... | ||

20 damage takes care of shields, leaving 50 to kill the hp. 50/2=25, probe hp is 20 | ||

both attack same probe or two different probes that are very close to each other if you can (maximise splash damage) | ||
