Starting To See More Marine Wins

Since the release of 2.0, I've seen aliens win time after time, with apparently little effort on their part. Things seem to be changing now as marines adapt their tactics to the new game. They are aggressively expanding instead of trying to fortify their base plus double res room, and it's working well. As the aliens become starved of resources they get weaker and weaker as a whole.

However, I expect we'll see a comeback eventually as aliens adapt *their* style to combat the marines more effectively, and begin to play as a cohesive team rather than just randomly roaming skulks picking off rambos and res towers.

    I still think that a organized HA/HMG/Welder team is a bit overpowered (due to too fast welding) You get 300 armor in 4 seconds? Oh pls it takes forever to heal a Onos.

    Edit: (even if no one posted yet: I said organized so think of a team that can shot at a onos with 3 hmgs at once)

    The more powerful team has this combo in the team (going on 6 a side teams)

    3x Shotgun/HA/Welder
    1x HMG/HA/Welder
    1xGL/HA/Pistol

    Although, ive as of yet to see,

    2x GL/JP
    2x Shotgun/JP
    1xHMG/JP

    Countered at all.
