1) Cossack pilot is weird. He should be taking beacons and not fighting snipers. That might save your Natty.

2) Good work with a shield, I especially liked the moment when you (it was your video?) turned robot sideways to move faster, instead of switching shield on.

3) Very good cornershooting in Gal. I think this robot suits you well.

4) Another issue with Raijin - it's legs :( And nobody can do anything about it. You were trying to let Rhino pass on ~6:30, but he stuck due to big Raijin legs.

5) For Natty and Galahad time from spawn to the real action, is about the same, approx 1 minute. Natty is slower, but its range is longer. Galahad is faster, but his weapons are short-range. Raijin spawned at ~5:55 on video and got into a real fight at ~7:30 due to slow speed and short range weapons. Though you got lucky shot at ~6:55, but sniper would finish him off anyways.

So,your other other bots were fighting around center beacon in 1 minute after spawn already. And yes, it partly happened due to its legs, which are also a bad thing to have in tight places.

Part of the solution is to mount some midrange on Raijin to compensate and shorten his "involvement time".

6) Good job on not using the shield at 7:36. You saw that this guy's splash would come through anyways, and decided to conserve both shields and time. Nice.

7) At ~8:30 mark another issue with Raijin - weapon placement. Left Thunder is basically shooting into a wall. It is a good thing for cornershooting, but I believe Carny would make a better job with his closely placed hardpoints.

8) Again, at 8:54 yet another Raijin issue, compared to Carny and\or Britbot. You move out of the cover, switch shields, and you see that you are taking fire. So you need to switch sheilds OFF, receive some more damage to relocate yourself. More than that, you are getting hit due to 2 seconds you need to switch mode.

9) Carny is spawned at 9:28, and by 9:50 he is already shooting at the distant enemy; for Raijin it took period from 5:55 to 6:55. And by 10:10 you already fight for center beacon.

You drew a lot of enemy fire to yourself, and by doing that let your team win. But I suspect that with Leo\Lance\Carnage in place of a Raijin you would do even better job, making this both faster and taking less damage; but again, that's just my opinion.
