Nice video and solid tierlist! Love the suggestion to the turrets, sounds fun (and maybe OP). The hunter really should have more range and there are certainly groups of units (eg core melee, t2 Aoe,...) that need some internal rebalancing. The beta, with all the patches, rotated through the rock-paper-scissors of units (AoE > DPS > Tank > Aoe) so fast, it's hard to really say much about balance but the tierlist shows you ended on tanks being strongest (while I ended on AoE being strongest)^^ The only units I strongly disagree on (2 tiers off) are the turrets and locusts. One mistake (I think), they changed the Predator in the last patch to super high single target damage (at least 1200, one shotting Butterflies) from medium AoE damage. Thanks for the videos, hope to see you upload again during the next beta!
Yes actually, on the 7/8 balance patch they changed predator to deal high single target damage. However, they said, "We wanted to test a more single target based slow ground to air unit at the advanced foundry and decided to use the Predator to do this test with." I ranked the splash damage version, because I believe that it is the intended version that will make it into the full release.

Great analysis! You might see some more uploads before the next beta. :)
Agree mostly, but I only did 11h of play, I got a lot to learn
You should have put another tier between your current A and B. It feels like that niche is sorely missing.
Did the predator not get changed to do only single target damage to air?
