Correct me if wrong, but wasn't bolas added specifically as a counter to heavier raiders (scorcher, pyro, kodachi, panther) |
Not sure exactly what was intended, but I find they are pretty generalist.
They have decent enough dps to deal with light raiders, such as glaives.
Their slow damage makes them reasonable against lone heavies, such as assault or even some riots.
They are fast enough to typically close in on skirms, but will often take damage/losses on closing.
As far as heavy raiders, bolas will crush pyros, but are about even with koda/blitz imo.
They can even trade reasonably well vs light to medium porc (defender/llt/hlt/stardust) due to their slow damage and ok health.
I wouldn't say there is any unit class that massively counters it, but similarly, no unit class loses especially hard to it. The above commentary is considering a ball of bolas only. Things get more complicated when you start combining unit types.
