why would bring back the jackrabbit meta why can’t you just nerf all the scouts and use scouts for scouting only.
because of this update my friend stopped playing once again because rabbits are a thing now
mixed with elite inforcers it just poops on marines
thanks a lot for another crappy season
I wish you would make it easy on your selves and just get rid of scouts doing damage instead of spending season after season trying to fix scouts

Because if you get rid of all scouts then it comes down to core infantry alone. That’s no fun at all.
Your friend should just man up and try to figure out a counter. Chosen kills choppers in 2 shots so I guess it also kills rabbits in one or two shots, give it a try with whoever leader you’re using.
The meta is changing A LOT and the early game seems very unstable at the moment, in a week or two we will see how it turns out.
In conclusion, don’t give up, don’t jump to conclusions, play some more.

Scout units should be for scouting. Not building in mass and annihilating armies or blocking opponents from expanding early. Choppers with engineers is a PITA. At this point I just rush to T2 as fast as possible and try n get Cyclops out. Jackrabbit were fine. Choppers were the bum play. Sounds like the bums are back in full force. Scout vehicles = scouting.

Ya I wish scouts where used for scouting that’s why my friend gave up on this game he’s the only reason I play this game
I agree with Blakey, your friend needs to grow a pair… of thumbs and pick the game up. Choppers weren’t even that bad. The hero meta will change things a lot. Play the game before you complain please.

Why is it always complaining if someone doesn’t like something or disagrees? We’re you physically with the guy talking to him and hearing his tone of voice to know it’s complaining? Moment anyone has a negative comment about a patch or thinks something is OP, automatically whining.
Please clarify 1 thing the OP said that was complaining. I see hes commenting and asking why jack rabbits are back to dominate. If thays whining/complaining…wow
I honestly don’t think it’ll be that big of a deal. We’re entering a hero meta, who can counter scouts. We all need to take at least a week to test and try things out before we jump to conclusions.

Thank u
for not miss reading my thread and Think I have a thumb up my -Yoink- begging 343 for nerfs
i just want game to last longer than 20 min not 5 min
last season was a blast
no Jr rushes
and even with the chopper meta they where so easy to counter with marine bait and grenades
with Jr all games just only last 5 min if you don’t super turtle or go for cyclops early but if you don’t trap power around the map you can only have 2 to 3 cyclops/hunters before you get bu rushed

I just played a match against a guy who went mass Ghosts, I won using Chosen, a few grunts and a few choppers, I was jumping in an out of a garrison until I defeated all his ghosts.
I don’t know, these first 10 games seemed very hopeful to me, not a single scout spam felt too strong, but I faced UNSC only 4 times, none of them went mass rabbits.

I’ve been having success with rabbits today. They don’t feel OP at all, if you’re planning for them. They are crazy fast though.
Right now, I don’t think many players were aware of the second balance patch, and you can really run wild on ppl with them.
But, no one that I’ve played has really been pushing their leaders either. So, yeah, learning curve with the new meta, but too early to call it OP

Makes a lot of sense. What leader are you using?

I was only on for a short bit, but was Jerome. With his hero perks and rally, he has a strong early game with JRs. His hero might be my new favorite.
They can be annoying, I imagine. They’re so fast that you can just pop from base to mini base to units to base and etc, and all before getting caught. Idk if any other T1 units can match their speed. Ghosts maybe?

Scout units always serve a light combat/support role in the early game of any RTS (and even in the late game in some). Treat them as light combat vehicles that are fast enough to be used for scouting rather than seeing them as being ONLY a scout. The problem with the jack rabbit meta back when kinsano came out wasn’t even the rabbits themselves. It was a bug with kinsano’s red line power, a ridiculously OP turret drop, and choppers and ghosts couldn’t really do anything cost effectively to a strong jack rabbit opener. So far from what I’ve seen, the game has a ton of early game diversity now. You can turtle up if your caught off guard, you can rush with scouts and/or infantry, you can still fast tech, and you can even hero open now which will definitely shake things up. If you were to remove scout units ability to fight effectively then all you would see are sniper wars. The banished would have no ability to contest the early game and cutter snipers would become the new meta.
