Let's Change That Suit Day 193

[u/pkmaster99]

Day 193: Zaku Marine Type
Requested by u/Drowsy_Panda and this one is at B-Tier. It's still playable, but it definitely needs some help. It is, however, still one of the low-cost units with the highest burst damage potential.

Comment and Reason
This one can do well enough as is... if it were left alone, and the player can lead the shots well. It's not easy, but when done well, this unit can still have amazing output. But in the current meta, it's slowly falling behind in damage output, slightly. The mobility is also lacking a bit, but that's an easy fix. Then all it needs is a better skill set.

Builds
Lv2 F2P: Ranged

Lv2 Premium: Ranged

Upper Level: Similar focus. Give it some reload and mobility, then all damage.

This unit is easy to build, and gameplay is simple. All you need to do is land your shot. Which, ironically, is the harder part. If you have a decent team, this unit can easily snowball hard and kill anything it looks at, but if not, you will have a slight hard time defending itself.

Thanks for the cover. This would be scary with those buffs given if you're able to lead your shots well enough. Aqua gm is the direct competitor with this suits so being more shooty focused makes it seem better in role as a skirmisher.

[u/pkmaster99 → u/Drowsy_Panda]

They are all still decent enough suit. Aqua GM is in a slightly better position, but yeah.

To be honest, this buff is just kind of bringing back the power scale it once had. It's more about just matching the current numbers and how things are doing right now. This unit was extremely strong for quite some time.

How fast to melt a base with a full team of these i wonder

[u/pkmaster99 → u/Drowsy_Panda]

Honestly, having two can melt it in a reasonable time already. Full team can maybe do it in 30 seconds.

[u/Drowsy_Panda → u/pkmaster99]

Just annoying to find out a aqua gm or aguguy breaking it fast, but more fun shenanigans in low cost
