Mobile Newton would be OP as fuck!!!

As much as I want it to be real, if it were real the game would be so very broken...

Although I suppose it could be another selling point for ZK, considering the kind of tactics needed to beat Mobile Newton spam.

Sumo is not spammable. Sumo is not a support unit. Sumo is an expensive assault unit.

If there was a mobile version of newton that hovered (let's call it a Ramiel) that cost the same as a newton (220 metal) then that would be very OP, as it would be able to literally push the enemy front line back.

Maybe mobile Newton could be a hover factory unit?

I think Jumpy could thematically fit a new unit, call it the (Linebacker? Bouncer?) that has a 4 second reloadtime on a uber-high-impulse melee attack with a 45* arc in front of it that is pushed, enough impulse to make a zues bounce backwards and make a small group of glaives fly to their deaths.

Sumo is next to useless vs defenses, I bet even napalm bombers are better "assaults" at this point. Sumo is just a weird unit right now.

Any mobile version of a turret that keeps the stats but gains mobility will be broken op, this doesn't really have anything to do with Newton specifically.

I have only a solution for that. A unit that used to exist.

It was called JUGGERNAUT

A mobile Newton would probably have 800 HP or so.

I have played with it using /give and it seems to be somehow intelligent in how it throws units, how is that?

Sumo is basically a more useful gorg with a cool kill-move now.

Also it can be quite efficient vs shieldballs.

not sure it really is that much more useful, juggler had better almost everything for cost, except no jump.

sumo with newtons would be great if it had a real weapon too.

You couldn't chase a shieldball with gorg and fish Racketeers away from it :P
