5 I don't think this is valid. If Picket reliably defeated high-skill Blastwing rushes, that would have been alright at this cost. It's almost guaranteed to kill something later anyway. 5 I don't think this is valid. If Picket reliably defeated high-skill Blastwing rushes, that would have been alright at this cost.

7 The problem is that preemptive picket defense has way less than 100% success rate, and that one enemy blastwing they lost cost 55 metal vs Picket's 100. And they were expecting it to die anyway, it's single-use. And the next one will come in from a cliff or from a building's shadow. Or there will be three at a time and the Picket will only shoot one. Or they will use a Locust to tank the shots. 7 The problem is that preemptive picket defense has way less than 100% success rate, and that one enemy blastwing they lost cost 55 metal vs Picket's 100.

9 Blastwings are so low-investment that even if you fail disastrously, you're still not in that bad a state. 9 Blastwings are so low-investment that even if you fail disastrously, you're still not in that bad a state.
