Basically, the ducks should have killed all the ronin in a couple of seconds, because the damn glaives would have done it instantly against the buoys

Limpet + duck probably kills ronins. Bouys + picket probably just farm ronin on repeat

Bouy + duck + limpet can probably beat reaver ronin by using bouys to pick off reavers until theres not enough reavers to prevent duck + limpet from overwhelming. You can also move your ducks + limpet to look for overextended glaives / ronins, and force reavers to move up a bit to defend.

Honestly I think this game is turned around if the commander had a few pickets and maybe started building bulkhead. It probably eventually dies to sling, but you woulnt immediately die to that ronin push, and you would have time to make a stronger armyt or a tech switch

Also theoretically, I think microed bouys straight up just kill ronins. Ronins slow when they fire, so you can literally just advance with bouys while dodging rockets. If the bouys get 1 shot on a ronin, its basically dead. And then you can just retreat for free and repeat over and over lol
