@Bacillus I have similliar feeling. I like to go agro and attack from all sides, but defending is usually easier and even when You have some super strong attack it can be broken by one well placed melting point or hacker. And if You go for the long range abttle usually the side with better upgraded arclights win... (I do hope they will nerf them a little). | ||

I don't think it is especially powerfull (unless you have tarantula vs sabertoooth or something similiar) but its heavilly skewing meta and initial setups. It becomes a roll of dice bascily at the begining. Is my oponent going to overload? If yes then which side.... If I predict correctly it is basiclly a win if I dont im in a pile of shit and it is not easy to climb out... @Bacillus I have similliar feeling.

At the high end of the spectrum most players go asymmetric aggro, few still prefer to play standard (more defensive play with balanced setup closer to your towers rather than on the line), myself included. If you want to check out how it's done at the highest level there are weekly tournaments that you can obs in-game each weekend but there's also a big kinda championship going on with only the top players. https://mag1.info/ | ||

Surrey (one of the top players) has some good guides but you can't just take it all at face value because his playstyle is rather unique so some of the advice might be taylored towards it (but most basics remain the same): https://mechamonarch.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@SurreyEZ Amaroq is providing tournament coverage and general streams, overexplaining stuff for newer people: https://www.twitch.tv/amaroq81 Hope this helps  | ||

Been running to a few ranged mustang builds that have been super tricky. In theory you get something armored - phantom rays or maybe sledges or so, but it practice the transitions have felt super clunky since the opponent already had some snipers or such. I changed some loadouts to have some more early-midgame options with armor, would love to try them out next time someone busts out the mustang stuff. | ||

![[image loading]](https://i.imgur.com/ENzdiCI.png) I'm rather relaxed with it, playing 1-3 games/day and not even every day and was able to reach the master rank (didn't want to push for grand master since there were no meaningful seasonal rewards between the two) and 1950MMR in 1v1 and 2v2 which put me in the upper bracket, really good players being in the 2-2.5k MMR range. | ||
