There certainly are some strong feelings about Natashas. Clearly players at higher levels are not going to use them because they can't compete at higher levels. But I don't think they were ever intended for top tier play. Beginners don't play with level 7 or 8 weapons (or higher) and there are no premium robots or weapons in lower tiers, so a Natasha can be really competitive, especially with 2 thunders. Yes, there will be games where they are taken out quickly but overall, the skills levels are generally low so having a Natasha in your hangar is a great asset.

As I've said before, as a beginner player it was my main silver earner, no question about it. Its a great training robot, and if its bought early the 110K damage points make it seem really strong. It is easier to arm and use for a beginner who hasn't learned to hide or what weapons work best for them. I would recommend a Natasha as a great training robot for beginners.

Now, having said all that I would also add that these days I'm not impressed when 3 or 4 Natashas with long range weapons spawn with me at the beginning of a game.
