1 Many of you are forgetting a big part of the problem. Dealing with skirmishers. Currently, tanks don't have a counter to rockospam. Neither do they have a counter to snipers. A fast panther( pre-redesign panther) would be able to deal with those units, the current one can't any shape of form. 1 Many of you are forgetting a big part of the problem.

3 Both kodachis and banishers can make cost vs rockos with lots and lots of manual micro, but they are not counters. And they can also easily die without making cost. And by the time snipers get out, it just gets worse, as kodachi speed and weight units will never really get to snipers cost-efficiently(just put some glaives with your snipers or simply retreat snipers to safety). 3 Both kodachis and banishers can make cost vs rockos with lots and lots of manual micro, but they are not counters.

5 Scorchers don't really lose much speed when turning. Panthers do. That's one of the reasons why they need to be faster than scorchers in order to have similar effectiveness at dealing with rockos. 5 Scorchers don't really lose much speed when turning. Panthers do.

7 In short, if tanks don't have a fast unit like the old panther, the factory is unviable in 1v1. With the awesome unit roster that ZK has, it is kind of a shame when most games on relatively flat maps are just vehicles vs vehicles. 7 In short, if tanks don't have a fast unit like the old panther, the factory is unviable in 1v1.
