any caste can win the game if the right player plays it.
I think I used to main runner/lurker and I wish I could main ravager but since it's so rare to get to T3 I'd rather claim I main specialist instead.
T3 is easier to get than specialist, though. Just be roundstart xeno and don't fuck up when its time to evolve (aka low plasma / attack survivors and have low health).
With how difficult it is to get any of the fun Xeno castes, I can always rely on my good ol' Sentinel Caste to kick ass and not die too easily. Moreso when you reach elder and above.
Even Pre-mutations, A max-age Sentinel can be as tough as a lurker. And if you are in a one on one fight with a shotgun user? No need to worry about point blanks when you can spit them down before they get close.
shut up gabo you main lurker
Anyway, as a serious MLG Ancient Sentinel (169) main, I think I make a lot of opportunities for fellow sisters. Neurotoxin is extremely strong, allowing others to just murder marines with ease. I also excel at spamming neurotoxin at the same target until the ragequit, since i stun them for a minute straight until I run out of plasma.
I'm hivelord main. I dab on your combat hugging skills drones, for I am the alpha hug. I average one 20 more hugs than the best carrier any given round. And I know the secret hive back door where I can ErP wi.th t he capturhhres ujntil they. Pjop larvea all ovyer the hive :@
Sentinel/Spitter mains rise up. That neuro is too strong
