As an aphid user I will tell you why: 1. They force enemies to either stay behind hard cover, attempt to hunt you down for a proper fight or retreat further than 350m.

2. Forcing enemies into a fight works in your favour in bots with Orkans (e.g. Griff/rhino/Galahad with aphid/Orkans)

For pure aphid bots the aphid salvos are quite devastating to big bots or stationary unaware bots, and can cripple your bot in 2 salvos or kill them with a few more.
