Level 1 Lazer Blazer

If the other team has built a level 1 lazer blazer (or level 2) and I'm on a tank on your team, please, please, pretty please with sugar on top, don't destroy it.

Being able to juice over and over again without spending a penny is the best feeling in the world.

You can use LVL3s as well, but you'll have to Juice while deployed - as Dead Stretch taught my team today...

I'm going to steal this thread and ask;

Why the heck does it take so much longer to overheal a Level 2 Lazer than it does for Level 3?

Yeah I was getting used to juicing on lvl 3s and it sure does take a little practice. Works well with bots too.

A level 1 or 2 lazer blazer just begs to be destroyed.
It haunts me, calling to me... "Destroy me... it's easy money..."
:lol:

I think that's the match where I pulled the Hudson double deploy trick.

I especially like any hacked Lazer Blazer, since I can deploy further away and get cover from Air Strikes.

Deploying near a Lvl3 can be really risky though, because if one pro is around I usually die right as I gain full juice.

Indeed. This is great advice guys.

Level 1 and 2 Lazerblazers are essentially free tank juice. If the other team doesn't get out to upgrade it to three, then leave it alone!

Play tank for awhile and abuse 1/2 LB's for juice. You'll see what the OP means!

The Coug is right, LB's, especially after the dlc/patch, are free juice machines for the tank, if i have a good tank on my team, i'll leave one alone for them.

You can't bloody do it when I'm watching my turrets as a Sniper, guys. So stop it or I'll pretend I can headshot you more.

I just pulled Juice 4 times in a Row thanks to Hostile Paradox and some Shave-Ice turrets, and I think a total of like 10 juices throughout the whole game. It helped that his team had mostly Assassins.

A split party can be fun sometimes. :lol:
Sorry Hostile.

It didn't help I was the only one trying to build defenses. Every time I ran off to build another turret while one was already building, you were already there getting juice from it. :lol:

Noobs: I know the assassin might be a tempting first class... because ninjas are cool and junk, and you love to pretend to be Naruto, but if you go 0K and 22D... I don't think it's the class for you.... :roll:

Yeah I pulled a few chain juices with a lvl 1 in a game about 10 minutes ago. Some poor gunner kept rushing me spawn after spawn to realize I had already gotten juice back.

I have this very strange feeling this will get nerfed eventually. Although since Uber had a TU already and now the free DLC I suspect the next patch to release when the next DLC releases.

Unless Uber wants to bother Microsoft yet again? :lol:

I dunno, sure it's a good tactic but you are still immobilized and the leaves you open to a lot of things like head shots.

Maybe make it so air-strikes do 300x more damage to deployed people

I'll never destory another LB again.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! teh botz!!!

Recently, I've been playing with people who build LVL1 Lazers in every available slot. These people make me cry.

Me too. :cry:

They think it helps, but it cripples the base. Leaves the nubs unusable when the enemy wrecks it in 2 seconds. And it earns the destroyer a free $35.

At least it's not as bad as people building ShaveIces and Longshots next to the Moneyball. I generally send them a message saying "You're doing a great job, but building a LVL1 is like trying to hold back the tides with a wall of shredded newspaper. SPEND MOAR".

My conversations with Scathis before posting those videos basically led to him saying "if you let a tank deploy infront of your turrets to pull juice, he deserves it."

This might change over time, but it seems like the devs were well aware of this tactic when scathis and I discussed it. It is a guaranteed head shot for snipers, as well as a head crab magnet. Against level 3 laser blazers, front loading even only a 1/4 of the tanks health in damage will prevent him from living long enough to pull full juice off of it.
