Eagle strafe in c teir is criminal. It's got heavy armour pen which means it can kill bile titans, close bug holes and destroy fabricators. Imo the small but predictable aoe means you can throw it almost without needing to consider where your allies are, unlike the cluster bomb, or other explosive stratagem where i often find myself unable to use it due to the positioning of my teammates or being pinned and unable to exit the aoe fast enough. Its a very safe danger close stratagem for when you need to save a teammate or yourself from being swarmed.
@@grandmofftogan probably B rank? It fills a niche. By itself in a vacuum, it isn't stellar, but you take it alongside more destructive stratagems to round out the Loadout, and gives you a short range punch that other stratagems don't provide
yea you can tell alot by a person by hiw theey rank eagle strafe. Against bots its a must have. I used to think it sucked. It got buffed and when you bait bots into a choke point it rips through them.
I clicked on this video cause it was recommended to me, and I instantly put it on full screen. I watched it for like 20 minutes, thinking you were a medium sized RUclipsr with at least 90,000 subs, and then was shocked when I saw you only had like 200 subs. Your content is amazing
had the same viewing process. Thought this guy would be one of the larger Helldivers-tubers, glad to see there's still new talent in the space. Great audio quality for such a small channel.
Great high quality video, agree will basically all of your placements, especially as a casual player. You are truly underated, would be down with a weapon tier list.
Eagle smoke strike is so clutch and underrated. I can't count how many times people were thanking me for saving them from enemy fire or providing safe extraction, rise the flag etc. The actual payload dropping in can even destroy bot fabricators. Jump pack is so good for higher difficulties. I have been running it for 2 months now on bot super helldives to the great success and even finished a lot of solo no deaths runs with it. It opens so many entrance points on many objectives/outposts, allows you to throw stratagems further and up cliffs People usually just go for full offense options and then complain how bots are killing them constantly
@@grandmofftoganagreed. So many players have different playstyles One thing to note with eagle smoke - you CAN take out both factories with it (at least, I’ve you got the upgrade on the hangar to have one extra bomb) Same with the orbital gas strike. It can technically take down both factories and bug holes if placed right. Fun when you get it in the right spot That said, I only bring eagle smoke when I’m trying to stealth, and even then, I usually prefer smoke grenades
I's a really well thought through Tierlist and I like how u discribed pros and cons from each one of them but you're doing this obviously in general for Robots Fraction. Just one Thing where I can't believe you've thought to short about it in between of all other Strategems. The Jetpack offers a lot of Support bringing you the opportunity of getting High Ground all the Time and this for sure is King on Wargames in general. I can't count anymore how often I stood save on a Rock killing Bugs arround me and saving Team Members in a Row. It also provides with the fastest Method to creat Distance like nothing else and is of course the best Way to play this Game without beeing touched at any Time. Don't forgeting about you can ride Bugs with it. May on Robots all of this won't work so well like on Bugs but on Bugs this is deffinetly God Tier and I bet by using it right also becomes minimum A Tier on Robots too.
You make a good argument for the jump pack, I just personally find it unwieldly to use so I put it in B tier, but I also don't consider B tier to be bad. And yeah I most play against bots so I'm biased on some things.
10:28 - How did you not die?? I saw some of that shrapnel land behind you… I’m calling witchcraft or wizardry Love the video man. People need to remember that these are opinions. Great quality and explanation I love that all of these ranking videos are different because it shows that people play differently. If you love the gas strike as much as I do, you ought try bringing gas grenades to bots as well. Does surprisingly well, and buys you time to get away should you be in a pinch
@@grandmofftogan yeah it has been a staple for me ever since they reduced the call in time lol, gotta get the timing right, but it can one hit anything
The orbital rail cannon strike isn't S tier. It has a way too high cool down to be useful. Why would I bring over a quasar cannon that can one shot all of the targets the rail cannon can but I don't need to wait 3,5 minutes for that. Secondly the OPS is better than the rail cannon bc as soon u have the skill to use it it's just better and has a lower cooldown
Commando has the option to turn off guided missiles. So it's basically the same as the EAT at this point. It's just a matter of preference and play style.
Rail cannon in s? Dude all your placements are by someone who doesnt play on 10. Precision strike is far vetter than rail cannon. When you play on harder difficulty recharge time matters. Thats what makes the 120 barrage so good and makes the rail cannon a horrible choice.

Maybe I should try it some more, sounds like it could be pretty good when you use it right
I love the strafing run, its very versatile. Definitely give it another try.

I'm glad to hear that the audio is good, this mic only cost around 60 CAD if I remember correctly
Air burst over HMG is insane
Great vid. I disagree with like half of the rating but still had lots of fun.
See in the field Helldiver
Thanks! Good luck out there o7

actually you can choose to guide missiles or not to , just same as flac round swap on autocannon

Thanks! Sadly i'm a thermite addict so it might take a bit for me to try out the gas grenades
I love the precision, can blast something every minute pretty much, I use it so much hahaha
Maybe the problem is with me and not the stratagem lol, I'll admit the cooldown is great on it

Orbital precision strike can be used as a weaker 500kg
And until you get 2 500kg, it has more uses

In the intro I clarified that I was ranking them for 6+, not 10. I think that's a fair way to rank them since you need to play 6+ for super samples.
L video. Play however you wanna play
I agree, I never meant to judge anyone for how they play, just thought it would be a cool video to make
