From my experiences, copymen and certain death borgs don't get much love, but if used well they can be ridiculously good. What borgs do you guys feel are really useful, but underrated? Yes this may have been asked already, but I'm referring to borgs that are almost completely ignored. :3

Powered Gunman doesn't seem to get too much appreciation. But Powered Gunman is awesome. (Not my favorite, but among my favorite Gun Borgs.)
Phoenix Dragon also has quite a bit of potential in the right hands (not mine, it seems), and Phoenix Dragon is nearly universally hated.

Jet Hero seems like he would be a useful partner for a Blade Wing, Titan Tank, Drill Robot, Axe Knight etc.

^ those were my thoughts, drop his jet? Scope with their range then just fly and provide cover fire. Melee with him is pretty good too tho so perhaps he could also act as a decoy.

Oh yeah, Jet hero! How stupid of me, he's been one of my favorites forever, definitely should have been on my list. When I play with other people he's one of the ones nobody else ever cares to use, but I can use him quite well against them. ;D

Wire Girl is an awesome low cost borg. Most borgs have to stand still to use a strong attack; Wire Girl can get around that. Being able to move while using her strong attack is a big plus and I think she gets overlooked often because her attacks don't really stand out.

Revolver Gunman kicks major ***. And Beam Samurai is like, my ace borg.

Omicron is generally forgotten, but lots of people here like him I think.
Also, I played with Tao Master recently...he's pretty good, especially for a melee based fighter. It takes a while to get used to how he plays, but he's one of the more fun borgs I've used lately.
Also, Megaton Robot. He's not that good, but he's okay and overlooked...

Jack. Because he made it off of a godforsaken island by using his back hair to make a rope that he then used to lasso sea turtles together to pull the raft that he built.....
Wrong jack? Naw he forayed into gotcha force and became yujis partner. As he and yuji have similar personalities. He hid his true form inside yujis head. Why do you think davey jones locked was so empty? It makes perfect sense.
Does your brain hurt yet? ;D
Seriously tho. Jack, jelly diver, and tar diver are pretty underated in my book.

Omicron is another of my most used borgs. Air dash, spam X, INSTANT WIN. Also, Antares. I've used it again. Amazing borg, alpha wings > Sirius.

Seriously tho. Jack, jelly diver, and tar diver are pretty underated in my book. I found myself using Jack to get him to level 10 a while ago (he's up to, like, 5 now), and I must say he's a lot better than I expected. A bit hard to get used to, and even harder to recover from knockback with (he falls EXTREMELY slowly, so by the time you get half-way down to where you can melee you get shot in the face 55.5 times and end up higher up than before), but when he can stay near the ground he can do some serious damage. Also, Antares. I've used it again. Amazing borg, alpha wings > Sirius. In that the Alpha Wings are harder to dodge than Sirius' beams, yes, but Sirius has Antares out-gunned any day of the week. I guess it's really all a matter of how you use them, but I think the general consensus would be that Sirius is better against the AI and Antares is better against humans. I've said it before (like, once) and I'll probably say it again, a well-played Ultimate Cannon can tear through enemy forces like nothing else. Granted, it can't really be called underrated on account of the Flame Dragon doing that much more easily, but the Ultimate Cannon is more fun! ;D

If they get hit by your barrage, they're dead. If they don't die from that, you'll have a nice beam waiting for them but I do find it difficult to use a UC consistently to be any good against human players lol. I also played with a dragon the other day for the first time ever (took long enough lol), and...what the heck!? Why aren't they that deadly as AI? The game would have been much, much harder, and the dragon parade would have been even better!!
