General Enquiry to the community:
Anyone here have skill dropoff between modes?
i.e. proficiency at raids, spotlight (master), arenas, etc. but a general weakness at say AM?
Am I the only plonker with this issue?
I am capable of RoK with R3 5s and R5 4s, can do master with those as well, and am capable of raiding 65-80K bases with 100% proficiency.
Arenas I can grind to around 50x streak with my 42 bots.
But AM...not so terrific. A squad of 4.5K R3 barely scrapes thru AM 3.30 (I kill Tronus, usually without revives).
When i see those iNightskies or similar videos i feel incredibly inadequate, but only during AM battles. It's like i can't consistently anticipate the AI, but only for AM. What gives.
Would love some feedback.

Keep a good risk adverse fighting strategy and it applies to all modes.
You're right. It's my fighting style, come to think about it.
I'm about efficiency and trying to deal as much damage as possible in the shortest amount of time.
I dance, draw out SPs, counterattack. That's my schtick.
Just must do better. Adapt.
High level raids no longer teach me anything.
At the moment I can't read AM attack patterns, which is plain embarrassing. I'm terrible vs nodded bots!
Yes, that's why you need specific bots for them.
Because even if you're a ninja you can't dodge a Sp3 😂
You can use Grindor or wheeljack to stop an SP3 before it fires. You’d need a lot of skill to do that though.
or luck. When a an enemy has 3 bars and i try to dash to either stop/ delay, MOST OF THE TIME, they USE it IMMEDIATELY.
Arcee is the worst in this case.. (to me) She almost always keep her power meter until sp3 and she immediately throw it if it's complete... And her sp3 is devastating in higher AM lvl even with Grimlock #critseverywhere
Yeah, he's too tight. You can't have a power mod like his and then make him hold specials that's so cheap, to put it nicely. And then have his broken SP2-Will of Unicron trigger on top of that.
And that's another thing I hate, when Jazz's Confusion fails when you need it most. And I think Jazz's heavy still gives power with the Power Flow mod, even though they aren't supposed to gain power unless they are already Confused.
YES!!! Jazz's heavy definitely gave power to spotlight cheetah! That's definitely cheating!
He’s named “cheetor” what the hell did you expect?
