Looks very different from either of the ext lists I usually play
#My Ex List

Amp seems really out of place to me
And I'm not sure about detonia either
There's more to pick at as far as my preferences go but most people will also say lack of Q is odd

Detonia is a slot that I'm experimenting with. I don't love her in there. I think I'm gonna swap her with Beatrix to have an Armored 2 drop to thrown down against early aggression.
Or just one of the Ranged 2 drops

Is that the 5 drop that gives movement?

That also sounds pretty wild to me, probably a piece that will get you good mileage on the mirror and nowhere else (re beat)

I think I'd be more willing to slot that one in when the patch drops. Right now having it stuck in your Bridge in the early game can really suck
I just don't really value a super expensive utility unit that much in this version of the game with Bridge RNG
winged trout
Not at all really
I thought the same thing before I played him
But the turn he comes down you basically get to make 1 to 2 unopposed trades if you had other units deployed
And he lets you take some very passive positioning in the early game to still win the midgame

So what's the wincon here?
The original reason I went with Detonia and Shrapnel was to really maximize AoE damage against Astra spamming the board with units. But Detonia is so expensive for what she does that I think she could be something else. I've really had good success with Shrapnel though, and Bitol + Shrapnel can lead to a lot of damage.

Hmm. Okay, that makes sense
winged trout
Piece trading astra doesnt usually work well for me, you can go pretty even but eventually haste just swings that board hard in her favor most times

Crank + Snareling help me position and lock down key targets. Shrapnel, Det and Ex to really maximize AoE against spammy lists. Furia is my finisher (I like her better than Switchback, I think. If you only need one activation she only does one less damage than Switchback and without spending Cinder on her ability) and sometimes she can just win games outright. BV, Torian and Max are just generic good stuff units. Blindsider I've found to be pretty useful in chasing down evasive targets and getting some solid damage in against ranged units that like to bully Ex.
The weakest parts of the list are probably Det and Bitol. They could be other units for sure.
winged trout
Agree, thats why they were my first callouts
The rest I think works but is pretty far from my preference
Both my ext rosters only share max, blind, crank, and torian with your list
And I've considered cutting torian pretty often just haven't yet

I'm trying out swapping in Deadeye for Detonia and Nectarvine for Bitol.
