Robots

  • Minigun Heavies

        • With the change in meta and the ability to damage stack debuffs like fan'o war and jarate, this is no longer needed

      • Set damage penalty to buildings to effective -50%

  • Rocket Weapons

        • This is now opposite FanScout where you can zoom in forward really quickly for picks and adds new movement options to master

  • Pilgrim

    • Changed:
      • Increased health from 3000 to 4500
        • This sentry buster was very weak compared to others, it now serves a sort of dual purpose as a semi-tank in addition
