    As a speeder in Nightmare league, there's a few that scare me in the matchups.

    1. Super Defenders like Peelah, Fix and Moistener on the same team. With HP over 15k each, a slow moving armored hulk that hits like a train. As a little Speeder with 2 weapons, i could be shooting and hitting every 10 secs and I won't be able to take them down in 5 minutes. Better hope you have damage dealers on your side or you'll be sunk.
    2. 4700+ Nightmare League Speeders & Enforcers : Orpheus, Smile Shark, / S \ , Thunder Sword, Black Lotus. With more than 1 of these guys on the opposing team, it's more like how you can simply delay your death. Not only are their weapons frightening, their skills as well. I've seen Orpheus and Smile Shark single handedly take out 4 ships in supposedly lopsided game. I go into game with these guys with sweaty palms and simply try my best with the weapons / items I have. Sometimes, I get out alive with a good team....
    3. Poor matchups with Fleets; Seeing a 2600-2800 on your team in 3700+ battles is simply scary, because you know right off that these guys don't know what's going to hit them. The game changes in the 3200+ range where all the players are far more defensive, Defense is the greatest offense, but they don't know that. They run into the fray and simply get overmatched by the powerful weapons or skills.

    Edit: Spelt Sword as Shark. LOL

    For me it's when there's 5 Mk4 Shooters on my team and 3 Mk5 Shooters and 2 Mk5 Defenders on their team. Automatically I know we have to deal twice the damage of the other team to win.

    AND the damn Mk5 Speeders. They always find me first. One Freezes me and the other stuns me and I get torp'd and shot to death in seconds.

    Nerf requests.

    But for thread...
    #1. Being top boat as fixer with low-infamy boats below me on my team and facing top boat high-infamy dps with low-infamy whatever on other side.

    #2. Being put in matches with teammates with 1k+ infamy and ridiculous matchmaking fails in general

    Well for me the nightmare of all my crew members Is the epic tier III big torpedo that appears out of nowhere (from the side of a rock for example) and destroys my low armored speeder when the match starts, obviously it destroys not only health, all the "good match" hope too!

    I hadn't come across any particular enemy setup of concern until yesterday. 4 speeders and a Fixer. I had a queue of speeders taking turns to shoot me.

    First 1 minute of the match should be named torpedo round. Everyone is so busy in firing torpedoes.

    3 Defenders, 1 Shooter and 1 Fixer. Or 4 Defenders and 1 Fixer. Or 5 Defenders.

    I don't know about anyone else, but multiple-Defender teams where the Defenders don't just kamikaze can get pretty scary. Defender is the only class I've seen that has consistently won fights when they were outnumbered. A match could turn into a 3-on-1, and the last Unfriend is a Defender on 1/5th of his HP. It ends a draw because your last guy ran away.

    Lag...
    But other than that 2 speeders ganging up on me. I'm a slow speeder, so I can't get away, and Boom, I'm dead.
