    ho bro, its specail can give a lot of damage. but depends on your timing for me im having difficulty executing its special. also its fast and always infront so sometimes ur msa will only hit the mecha. yah alot of players using it. actually im thinking of changing one of my unit with it.

    yesterday i played with a player using these units: (as what i can recall)

    hopper mecha
    caterpillar
    elephant
    zombie
    morden
    allen
    flying tara

    and i cant get close to his base. everytime i release my msa it always hit the mecha. he dont have jking and yet he can kill my jking so easy.

    Metal Slug Defense (by SNK Playmore)

    Let's see... 5 missions, 10-ish new units in the shop (I'm hearing good things about Gunner Unit and Native. Flying Killers looks fun, but probably not competitive). Two new areas in the extra maps (no POWs, thankyouverymuch), they probably unlock more units, like the crazy jumping boss Slug unit.

    hey thanks man.. but im quite positive snail special is invincibility for 1 sec..
    anyways there are alot of unorthodox openings as of late from all rush to all end game setups... I find some quite funny and some are jaw droppers(totally awesome but scary at the sametime :) )

    Let's hope the metagame doesn't homogenize like it did the last couple of versions! It's sounding good, so far.

    version 1.4.XX is pretty balanced, its becoming a real strategy defense game now :)
    and they should also implement better security too...

    Oh, well, they worsened the snail and caterpillar(or not?), but still the appearance of Jupiter King turns crushing defeat in a landslide victory. In short it is necessary to accumulate on Jupiter and win every game.

    Emergency world , BOSS, Stage 3 : -40 Sortie Points, difficulty : Hell.

    How to solve it without -10 medals and all at max? There are 2 tanks at the beginning of the stage which are close already to my base.
    AP buildup is slow, and does not allow me to produce units in time, as the tanks start to hit me.

    Erm...! I'm from iOS, so I'm going from 1.3 to 1.4.4. Android has had most of this stuff for weeks.

    I was able to win by spamming hopper mecha, with other units in between. There's a video on YouTube of the strategy.

    the shoe and karn boss stage you say? hmmm... i cant remember well what happened to mine back then but I'll try...

    1.all units max (lvl20)
    2.all home base max (lvl20)
    3.(pow upgrades will be a big help... preffered 100% or close to that)
    -vital pows to need-
    hp unit pow(fio and whip stages)
    production pow(gimlet and utan)
    hp base pow(trevor and lilly)
    attack damage pow(nadia and cynthia)
    oh and maybe msd charge time and msd attack up may be needed..

    strategy:
    1.upgrade ap (cant remember how many...maybe twice or trice?)
    2.collect ap til you only have much about near 20-30% left(it gets tougher onwards)
    3.I think you can hit MSD at this point(pushback is vital here).. if not yet bring out a high hp tanking unit (a damage absorber is your key to winning)that will go forward absorbing damage/protect for your base(sarubia perhaps)
    4.summon up with some low to medium cost ap units (sv 001,di cokka,sam tank or anything that you have,preferred units with medium range with high fire power)
    5.if you manage to dent 25% or something to the enemy one of them will explode... cutting you some slack of facing 2 powerful units
    6.at this point its easy now... but trying to have an S rank will be another challenge

    and if all things fails try again and experiment... or use the item "ap max"...
    you can get this item in new world map (green background) but rarely

    Spamming hopper mecha is indeed a good strategy now. It can be countered by a very good-controlled snail, but you can switch strategy if you see one. Most importantly, it's the most cheapest way to stop the first MSA.

    But I wonder if playing other units in between the hopper-swarm is good. If your opponent is not that unclever to spawn unit one by one, a stacked troop can easily overwhelm back and the single units would be more like an AP meal to them. Though I only tried the skinny Trevor.

    I think hopper+snail is strong, provided you won't explode the hopper while hiding the snail :p

    I was advising anima123 on how to beat a boss in singleplayer. I have encountered hopper spam in online play and was considering putting the hopper in my deck, but like you said, I don't want to provide free ap!
