    Seriosuly, in 2 vs 2 event, yellow boats MUST BE DISABLED. seriously, wtf. Between myself and a few friend, our win rate in situation where two shooters vs at least one yellow is zero. This is not just me, my friends are experiencing the same thing as well. It's beyond a joke.

    When League of Legends runs a special mode that makes two particular champs so incredibly toxic, they get disabled for that event (doesn't effect other games). Rovio, you MUST do this! CTF was bad enough, STOP GIVING YELLOW BOATS ALL THE COINS!

    Actually, yellow boats aren’t getting all the coins. I’m fairly good at winning games with the right fleetmate, but coins are awarded on damage, and it’s difficult to compete with Shooters, that have twice as many weapons. Even the losers sometimes get more coins than me.

    I'm guessing you're a shooter main??
    If a yellow boat can out-damage you with 2 or 3 guns, then the problems not with them tbh!

    It's called a stun, how can I deal damage when I'm stunned for at least 1/3 of the game. It's a 1 vs 2, stun one guy and kill the other, then kill the guy that was stunned. Rinse and repeat.

    I'm actually a fixer main trying to build a shooter. I got a couple of good weapons, no good burst weapons like BC etc though, so yellow with a stun completely screws my game - not to mention that I can almost never burst a damn buble. I may as well not even bothered playing.

    Solution is simple. Fleet with a yellow boat.

    He might also discover it’s not as easy as it sounds.

    Shooters are so friggin OP. I’ve come up against guys running triple EC with 10k hp. You need the stun just to break even, and If you miss a stun, or your teammate breaks it, you’re basically dead.

    If you can’t kill the other ship before the stun wears off, then you have to deal with stun resistance, or you stun one guy and the other comes back with invincibility, so you don’t have a target.

    Not to mention Railguns and Snipers can practically take you out of the game, before you’re even close enough to land the stun. Then there are the double bubble Enforcers and Repair Bolt Fixers, which completely screw with Tesla Bolt.

    And even if you play it well, your Shooter teammates gets all the coins.

    Funny. It seems that everybody thinks everybody else’s boat has an advantage for these events. Maybe nobody is correct (except maybe the full time fixers :))

    Photoshop alert :eek:
    No but seriously, this just proves how freaking OP shooters are.
    Nothing against you two, I know you're both skilled. But Orpheus and BlackTail are considered to be one of the most skilled players, and were running yellow boats, that are supposed to excel in this situation. Something smells here imho. o_O

    They got cocky and were outplayed is all.
    They were far more careful in the rematch and got the win.
    There's a reason I play enforcer when I'm pushing infamy and it isn't because shooter is too easy ;)
    If I had more than just my rare tesla shield it'd be an even bigger difference.

    Why can the tesla disable our ships as we spawn bad into the game? This is surely something the devs missed.
    You get killed and re-spawn and instantly a enforcer or speeder tesla bolt you and disable you for 12 + sec by then your spawn spells has run or and you'redead again because they've fired and disabled you that many times it's a joke.
    Please devs do something a butt the double bubble and tesla disabling during the events. These events are for yellow boats so the rest get no coins at all.

    This is true, it's a damage-reward Event, like most of Battle Bay matches.

    As a Shooter myself I actually like playing against Shooters the best. They have no Tesla Shield, no Tesla Bolt, and no real healing mechanism.. Bandages are a mistake because they can't heal fast enough, so it's easy to put together a plan and execute.
    Defenders are beasts, usually requiring a 2v1 or they may just roll you over. They need the right loadout though. What is with the Triple Torpedoes?
    Good Enforcers can leverage their Teslas to turn any plan I have upside down.
    I use Lube for Speeders in 1v1 and 2v2, so they usually have a tough go at me.
    Fixers are not great in this event, but it can be done. I won most of my Shooter/Fixer fleets, but is a lot more effort to win and Fixers are not rewarded properly for their effort.
