User:Oldlaptop/Counter table

This page contains a table for ship countering in Player vs. Player Supermelee games. The table is read as follows:

• Left-most cell: The ship for which counters are listed
• Hard counter: Ships that are almost certain to destroy the ship
• Soft counter: Ships that might destroy the ship, but usually require that the ship is either damaged before hand or some luck is involved.
• Odd matches: Ships that might do the trick, but may just as well fail awfully.
• Stalemates: These are matches which will result in neither of the ships getting any hits in. Avoid these matches at all costs.
• The definition of a counter is "A ship that can take out another, more expensive ship"

Note: If you think something belongs in this chart, please ask on #uqm-arena before doing your changes.

¹While this is not a true counter price-wise, it is necessary to use overwhelming force to reliably take some ships down.

²This ship is not necessarily sufficient by itself, but can do enough damage to soften up the enemy before another ship.

³Slylandro is a ship which is as powerful as its pilot is. At times Mmrnmhrm can defeat Slylandro without taking much damage, but a skilled Slylandro pilot can avoid all Mmrnmhrm fire

⁴Thraddash Torch is usually banned in competitive Supermelee as the ship is broken beyond repair
