Condors don’t receive the Redline 2 Buff to speed from Kinsano, while Jerome’s Time For Heroes passive does give them this speed and damage buff? You also can’t drop Hellcharge on her Condors for some reason.
Like whats the thought process behind that decision? So many Banished leaders have great passives that buff their scarabs, like siphon/fury, skitters, or goo. Why is Jerome’s Condor the only one to benefit? Also, this benefit goes away once he’s above 80 pop. Probably too late in the game to happen, but it would be nice if instead of say under x population TFH kicks in, it could be under x units on field. So if this number was lets say 20 units, you could build 2 Condors and the Spartans and have the rest of your army comp all be inspired. Food for thought.
Redline Condor would be soooo OP. That thing would be speeding across the map and wreaking havoc.

Is that any different from Anders’ Retriever? That thing can kite, hit and run. Seeing as Kinsano’s has a pretty lackluster toolkit, her hogs and hero are meh, having a Condor that can somewhat kite would be sweet. Also, Vultures are faster than Condors and they receive the Redline II buff, but they’re not OP. I think that wolves would still chase it down too effectively, but one can dream.
I don’t know for sure, but I think instead of being classified as being a “air” unit it is classified as a “uber” or “super”(I forgot which one, it’s one of the two) unit. Putting in a class of it’s own, so leaderpowers that effect air don’t effect the condor. But this isn’t fact as I haven’t tested nor have I heard it form anywhere. Just speculation.

Yes condor and scarrab got an own classification, that’s the reason why they don’t benefit from certain powers and global air or vehicle upgrade. The almost same for hero units. They don’t benefit from global upgrades but from leaderpowers.

It would indeed be like the Retriever. But people already complain about that thing like mad. We shouldn’t replicate it.
Kinsano’s LPs are actually quite good. Inferno can clean a base to its bones, and Napalm Missiles III actually does even more damage than inferno. Her infantry game is good as well since you’ve constantly got a flamer drop in your back pocket and Hogs waiting to drop if they go too heavy into anti-infantry. Her Hero is one of the fastest units in the game including air. This coupled with her beefy shield makes her great for hit and run. With the buffs coming next patch, Kinsano might just be top tier.
