The prevalence of Plasma bomber and SMG gunbeds.

What about making the rotor based bot's needing a tail rotor for actual stability. IF they are going to rotor spam, cut the efficiency of it in half. Or keep rotor's as top and side mount parts. If you flipped a rotorblade in real life it would collapse in on itself. Rotorblades would need to be far more rigid to deal with the weight of a bot on top of it.

Normal bombers... I'm kinda okay with, they have their share of problems. They generally need to keep moving, they loose stability if sides are uneven, weight plays a huge factor aswell I've seen plenty of bombers that flopped back to the ground like concrete paper airplanes. If there was more of a trade off between the two types of planes like, rudder based planes needing to be lighter weight, and aerofoils being a fair bit more sturdy and having the superior lifting capacity.

And as a way of compensation for dealing with both a tiny smg buff to limit that smg crosshair spread. Flying unit's received a fair amount of love actively, and as side effect's of the new mode. I feel like giving smg's a bit more capability of dealing with flying unit's wouldn't be too bad given that they have a guaranteed heal zone, and medics hanging around.

I just don't want to see air unit's going back into "LOLOLOLWHYWOULDYOUMAKEONETHEYAREGARBAGE!" Right now they feel like they nudge the scales towards being somewhat too powerful... And the ground unit's keep getting hit with nerfs and buffs, but mostly nerfs.

In general I feel like what khoa said about making more of the ground unit's faster was true, and mixed with the measures to make guns less effective with stupid levels of redundancy and rewarding smaller designs who are going in a bit softer a bit more speed not just movement wise, but damage wise aswell.
