I'm actually quite interested. Say you're in Dead City. An Orkan Spectre versus Ember-Magnum Strider. The most common close-range setups I can think for each bot.

All the Spectre has to do is just wait behind cover for the Strider to get close. Say, at the big barriers facing the sniper towers. If the Strider gets close, the Spectre Orkan can jump forwards. If Strider tries to Dash sideways, Spectre can lead shots. If not, Spectre gains 100m or so on the Strider's 250m of Dash. If Strider gets away (which shouldn't be too hard. Although the Strider will still probably be a damaged a bit), in order for it to be able to damage the Spectre, it has to reveal itself. Then it opens itself up to the Orkans. Even if it Dashes, it won't get much damage in, and it'll set itself up to death by counter-Descend.
