Mech Arena | Mech Spotlight | Shadow

Have you ever wanted to become the deadliest, sneakiest scout on the battlefield? If so, look no further than the Shadow! This tiny Mech may not have a lot of armor, but it’s small, it’s fast, and it can cloak itself from enemy targeting systems.
You’ve probably had to deal with Shadow’s Stealth system before, and how hard it makes it to shoot the little blighter. Give this Spotlight a watch to see how you can use it to your advantage, or how you can counter it when it’s used against you!

Shadow is fast, but it’s not without some serious competition. Can you guess which Mech matches it?

[@kamauthomas1016]

The lancer or killshot. Both are fast and have their advantages over him

[@Power.7w7]

lancer, his serious competitor, they both have the same low energy capacity, but they have different abilities, while shadow can be running around like crazy, lancer can hide above and with javelins or mortars, while shadow has the reloading ability, that's why he has a very serious competitor, a lancer vs a shadow the lancer beats him, in addition to having more life he can hide in a high place, and wait for the Shadow to pass and for his ability to recharge to hit him with weapons like javelin

[@georgecorreia1339]

Killshot matches the shadow's speed of 29kph

[@tushar883]

killshot is faster ofcourse

I had an encounter with an enemy shadow once in a game. It struck me from behind as I was raining down mortar fire from behind the frontlines to support my allies. An enemy shadow used correctly can be a pain since it can use it's stealth to sneakily outflank you.

[@ravenrock541]

Yep, you got somebody hiding behind the front line picking off your teammates, Shadow is best for Kamikaze or revenge runs

[@somepersononyoutube8764]

I had an encounter of the same mech it was 2v2 I forgot wich weapon it used but its was in stealth in the open so I sniped it manual aim

If you want shotguns, you need to get close to the enemy. If you're a pro at sneak attacks and your shotguns are maxed out, you could probably take out a tank's backside if you're careful with your shots!

@@Koenigsegg-jesko But if the Guardian blows System Crash into another target, you can sneak up behind them, stealth, then fire away with your shotguns and kite until... BOOM. Dead Guardian. Two fully upgraded Shotgun 4's can HURT, and while the Guardian's armor is durable, it's still an Attacker, not a Tank.
