THE CATCH, AND WHAT COMES WITH IT
  • GunslingerGunslinger from Tech arrives 5:03 · 3% of role by thenTech makes it and hands it over.

Paid for by sending allies about 630 metal and 13,000 energy by 5:00; standard pond sends 180 metal and 9,500 energy.

Where those units first fight, in 36 games with kill data: in the middle 86%, on their own side 14%.

Those units destroy a typical 1,480 metal of enemy units by 15:00.

Then transitions into tick (23% of army), centurion (12% of army), pawn (11% of army).
