^ As in "pretty much every Borg is bad"?  As in "some options are blatantly better than others" I can't think of similar costing borgs right off the top of my head, but in any game where that grappling helicopter is expected to be used in the same game as Cyber Ninja, balance is clearly not particularly good. |

I think there are a few outliers but gotcha force is for the most part balanced.

gotcha force is for the most part balanced. Balanced in as much as 90% of borgs are crap? |

EDIT: It's illogical to say that if you think 10% is in a whole other league then the other 90% are obsolete. Also, much of this can be fixed for competitive play if the players agree on "point fixes" for each borg and then calculate the points themselves. That's the beauty of the game's point system. |

Indeed or just make up your own rules usually my brother and I rule out dragons fortresses g reds and black (he spans me with the charge x) and icbms |

The trouble is that the devs overestimated the value of a lot of things - flying for example. A good number of otherwise good borgs have overpriced things such as transforming which makes them a waste of points, and a good number are just plain rubbish. Like Carrier Helicopter. |

Just agree on a different point value for the borg then. It's what I do with my friends (when they still played).

I like the sword knight recently, he's like the normal knight but superior. He has absolutely no long range and he's pretty sluggish so he can't be a proper game winning borg. But he's surprisingly useful.
Command girl is good as well - you can get close without your borg wasting time on some flamboyant melee combo, the beam laser is good and the exploding sniper is awesome.
Acceleration ninja is great because even mundane things such as jumping and air dashing are now attacks. He can sort of vaguely fly with his long distance air dash and the full throttle thing is great fun to outrun bullets and smash people out of the way like a blade-wristed rugby player.

Well yeah, i try to keep them at arm's length, it's just nice to know if they manage to get close she won't try to get stuck in. One of the really annoying things about g red is his huge melee distance threshold. |

The drill that pierces the heavens! The light from which none can hide! Six spinning instruments of destruction rising from the ground! several needles of plasma!
The Subterranean Warrior Beyond Compare: Drill Robot! Walls cannot protect you! shields will soon fall! none can hit him when he burrows. He bursts from the ground and life bars plummet! a continued attack and all evil borgs are annihilated!
The Armored Hero For Light! The One Who Shall Shine Brightly On Darkness And Vanquish It!:Gold Hero! A citizen with a strong sense of justice don the armor of light! a shining attack piercing all before it burning away the darkness!needles of plasma ten at a time before you can blink ten strikes straight to the core!as they fall the hero moves on dispatching with a ruthless love for justice.A villain manages the dodge the barrage and thinking himself clever and the hero defenseless comes up close...and is rewarded with wrist blade demise "None with sin in their hearts shall escape the hero proclaims back to back with with Warrior of the Earth among the corpses of the evil!
....Damn that was corny! basically i love Drill Robot because his drills pierce the heavens obstacles meaning if you shoot the enemy can't take cover. and when the drills hit they get at least tend hits EACH before they pass through the enemy!and melee...jesus.in summation Drill robot = Multi hit claw robot. ......and he looks like one of my favorite robot masters!
Gold Hero...dear god....my seccret weapon! If a mission is pissing me off I just rolll my all Gold Hero force in and steamroll It! a beams that pierces and does big damage, a range attack that launches ten shot in rapid succesion and a melee combo to make Cyber Hero blush.....bliss...
so yeah i like range fighters with respectable melee!
Honorary Goldwolf hero:G red/red neo/black/every color of the rainbow:we all know why.

Hmm... this is a tough one.
I guess, my favorite borgs are:
1. Death Arc
2. Cyber Death Dragon
3. *Every Single Death Borg*
Death Arc may just be an over-glorified Sirius... but it has the Death Force insignia. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is more fun than blasting all your enemies into dust with Cyber Death Dragon. The exploding barrage is so much fun... and Death Borgs. Because if you throw enough of 'em into the fray, you're sure to kill something.

My top 3 borgs:
1)Nao and angel nurses - I just love using nurse borgs and I beat enemies so easily with them, I beat the dragon's den fight with a team of 1 Nao and 5 angel nurses
2)Death Borg Sigma 2 -He destroys everything in his path with lasers, nothing else needs to be said.
3)Sekhmet witch - who doesn't love to see they're enemies run in fear of a cute little witch 10 times their size!
