Re: The Oracle of Death


just remember that what you're recording is last hit data, with bailout suicides mixed in. phoenixes are extremely powerful, for example, taking 50% of my Lib if i don't dodge quickly enough, but they rarely get a kill on me. Strikers are much more likely to chase me for 10s around a mountain and get the last hit, in combination with flak, basilisk fire, etc.

compared to ES Air-Lock-on HA weapons and A2A missles the Striker may not be so far ahead. i'd like to see that comparison.

i'm not really defending the Striker its just that the ES specialty launchers aren't really comparable except for their release date. what you're seeing in that comparison, mostly, is how often each is used, not necessarily how good each one is. they fit different styles, and the Strikers style is basically "no skill scrub" or "zerg tactic."

again i don't really like any lock-ons at all so i'm not supporting the Striker. this is just about interpreting statistics.
