    What do you think is the current meta?
    And what you have done or can do against it.
    As far as i noticed Meta is different for each league. Still TOP 50 do inspire overall Meta.
    Overall Current Meta- these are weapons worth buying and upgrading as for now.
    1.Bast Canon- Ec nerf and rise of enfo made this weapon meta. Deadly Short Range High Damage weapon. Best perks burn damage and extra damage perks. Best to be used on Enfo.
    Counter-( to be filled, any suggestions)

    2. Missile launcher- more and more people started to master this high skill weapon. Becames great only after gaining 4th and 5th projectile. Best used on shooter. Best perks dmg inc perk for ships all weapon or range perks.
    Counter-( to be filled, any suggestions)

    3. Railgun- another high skill weapon.
    Best used on shooter. Best perks damage perks.
    Counter- use waves and obstacles. Get closer.

    4.Mines- lots of mines. Personally too many mines ruins the game. Well its still a decent weapon. Best used on all ship except defender.
    Counter- watch your steps.

    5.Double tesla shield- Enfo exclusive.
    Counter- carro, torps.
    6. Grenade- burst damage+ fire damage + Splash damage + Low cooldown

    7. Sniper canon- most versatile weapon on battle bay.
    Counter - move behind waves and in random manner. Railgun- fighting against a sniper means enemy have a straight line of sight, so do you and railgun dont have to rely on crit.

    What do you think is the deadliest among Current Meta?

    Please add sniper to list. There is lot of sniper in almost every game and there is nothing to counter it except pray the god like "Please don't be crit" :rolleyes:
    Also missles are great counter for tesla shields.

    Sniper is always a meta regardless of any buffs or nerfs.

    You are still looking for a counter for blast cannon? You have listed a big counter at the wrong weapon - "Sniper-move in random manner", that's much rather the counter for blast due to the slower projectile speed. The other thing i do not agree with - railgun being a high skill weapon. There is only very few weapons that require less skill. I rarely miss any rg shots (also on long distances) due to it's fast projectile.

    I don't have much exp. On rail gun so i believe you.
    As for sniper. My proposed counter works in long range. In short range sniper is not that much treat since enough big guns rules there. Still Sniper do have a hard time in high wave close range, staying low on waves works way better against sniper than any other weapon. Added one more counter see if you agree.
    Yeah counter for blast? Do share

    The only part about the current meta that I dislike is the abundance of mines. Just a personal opinion. But I won't miss mines once they are gone from the meta.

    The broad meta is fire&cannons + maybe mine.
    Missiles - basically only effective on shooter
    Railgun - please, the only thing railgun has and sniper doesn’t is braking shields a lot better
    Grenade & mine - great options, but not in every situation
    Double tesla shield - this is the enfo meta currently.
    So maybe add flare and fire bomb?

    Yeah! Both flare and firebomb works. Firebomb not so much in close range, still better burn them before they come close. After using overboost dual shield enfo get quite slow so that should be the best window.

    I don't know why everyone else hates mines, but I love them, even on the enemy team. They add spice to the game, as they control where you can go and they are game changers.
    They are not op. If you're a speeder or fixer(even enforcer), you have a huge disadvantage in 1v1s, unless your enemy is stupid enough to run into it. Mines also decrease the amount of games where the last speeder runs away from you in a 1v1, and forces a tie, when you could have easily won.

    I don't hate mines. They are fun.
    But when all you see is mine its get irritating since you can't even tell which one is safe to land on.
