Aurora: "It's basically a space coffin" 🤣

First I have to agree with a LOT of what you've said (relatively new to SC). However, the stealth issue you keep hammer is beyond logical considering the level of stealth of current real life US stealth fighters. F35 will lock and kill before another plan can even see them, B2 launches bombs over the horizon, and then there is the F22 that has the radar cross section of a bumble bee... You can literally see the F35 and F22 with your eyes before you radar would ever pick up either one.

Don't you think that the snub fighters should be S class? In the actual PU these ships have to be carried to the fight or are restricted to a very local area. I think that justifies their S class status. You say you would like to see the gladius, hornet, arrow back at the top of the pvp meta, which is okay if they actually get fuel limited to be carrier based fighters who cant even move between planets on their own and need support ships and logistics to operate them effectively.

I cannot wait to hear how the ship balance changes with the updated flight model and crafting when it comes in. Overall, sounds like just get Gladius since it is the hero ship for S42 and they want it to shine. Plus you say all the time on stream, if you are new and want to dogfight: get one. AND it is the only ship on your alt account now (or do I mean main account since your other account is locked:) )

So how many Mirai Furys can fit in Polaris?

[@zacksomers1811]

i understand somewhat rolling g's off in a fight, but i dont remember seeing a video where you were talking about lateral g's and inverting the fight and all that you mentioned here. i'd probably say im a rookie cause ive been getting those corkscrews feeling good and seeing the repeaters whizz right by me but i cant do any of those s turns or wave patterns yet lol

So glad that CIG fixed the (*@#&$^T HUD for dogfights...

I agree with just about everything in your tier list other than the requirement for the Gladius to need someone trained (I think someone at a rookie level would be quite effective in it in a teamfight gang) and the positioning of the Guardian being 2 whole tiers lower than the Lightning. Yes, I think it should be in a comfortable slot in C tier (as per my joke right off the cuff of the stream), but going off of your ratings, I would have thought it would fit more snugly in D tier with the similar ratings as the Hurricane. I would definitely rate it lower than Lightning and Glaive based on overall effectiveness, but I probably would have placed it in D due to very similar flight performance (a little bit better, to me) of the Lightning. Despite my disagreement and all of that, I really feel weird in thinking that the Guardian also sits pretty much exactly where I'd expect a heavy fighter like it to be. I'm sure there will be improvements or nerfs soon, but I honestly don't think it needs to shift in either direction very much. Solid takes!

Nomad continues to be the best since it can carry a fury lol
