Miner anim cancels? Bottom map bombers? Wing Fly-overs?

It's all very subjective ofc but charrog infinite jump bug right outside a garrison is the shittiest thing that can ever happen.

Doesn't quite work like that, but yeah.

Charrog inf jump is so obviously unintended, buggy and quite broken.
Anim cancels and positioning tricks are more unintended gameplay mechanics as a result of how the functioning code works.

And I'll ruin that by saying I'm personally of the opinion it is no fault other than the dev's when buggy gameplay mechanics are broken, and no one should ever be punished for playing smart. However I'm not the devs of this game so, meh.

While the dev has some responsibility for fixing known and reported bugs, players have a responsibility not to purposefully abuse them when they are clearly known... but honor is generally not a high priority among gamers...

If a mechanic is in, abuse it. It's up to the developers to fix their game, not to punish the players for using their broken mechanics.

Rather, it's the dev's call whether they want to keep the "bug" in the game.

You see, if anyone who knew how to do it told you, that would be them giving you a very strong advantage, and we still don't know if the devs are going to punish abuse of this bug.

I was joking.
I hate watching someone abuse an unintended game mechanic.
So far we got anim cancel from miners, kiting, and charrog infinite jump. God mode positioning for elemental scorps and v at bottom of map is always funny.

Kiting could be replaced with hold kiting (which theoretically could be the same speed as g-kiting), and I really like anim cancel as it opens up miner all-ins and allows miner micro to play a huge part of dealing with pressure. Charrog infinite jump on the other hand is game-breaking because there's nothing you can counterplay at all.
