Which ships are you best at controlling?
My answer:
Slylandro; I have become quite skilled at zipping through the enemy's attacks and attacking the other ship in a similar fasion that the cyborg fights you.
Cruiser vs. cyborg; This is because being able to exploit the cyborg's weaknesses with a Cruiser is a very essential skill when being the bad guy.
Also, what are your worst ships?
My answer:
Drone; We all know why 
So? What about you guys?

I guess my speciality is Supox.
Worst is definitely Melnorme.

That's a screenshot of my recent melee performence against the Awesome Cyborg. I wasn't very tactical in this game, in every single battle I just zipped in and attacked relentlessly with lightning until either:
- one of the ships was destroyed
- the Probe's battery ran out, in which case I zipped out to grab an asteroid
- I was unable to keep up with the other ship, in which case I wrapped screen
- I was taking damage without being able to hit the opponent, in which case I zipped out and waited (for a couple seconds) for a better oppertunity
So why am I showing this off? Well, if I wasn't tactical, and the AI is an inhuman sharpshooter, I must have been somewhat good at dodging the projectiles.
Particularly good matchup: VUX was completely pulverized.
Embarrassing matchup: When the Scout warped in, I mindlessly attacked it just like any other ship. When I made my first attack, it detonated itself, then I realized what the ship was.
I'm just bragging here since this thread looked so empty. 
Also, I fought a fleet of Pkunk with a fleet of Slylandro 7:7. The game says I destroyed 4; In reality I destroyed about 15 (because they were regenerating so much).

I suggest bragging about fights against human opponents. The AI is stupid and can be tricked in many ways.

Well, I'm somewhat good at controlling a Mmrnmhrm (thus I use it so often). The Chmmr is mostly a no-brainer, so I guess I can use that somewhat well, too.
I could use some serious improvement with Kohr-Ah, Utwig, Druuge and Melnorme - most of the heavy-hitters  . I'm also not too good with Slylandro or Chenjesu. And with Umgah, I'm horrible. Can't use the retro-propulsion for squat

I'm pretty good flying Mycons and Chenjesu , really bad with Slylandro and Umgah .
Those are against AI and local PC fights against not the best pilot out there .

For me, Kohr-Ah is the _easiest_ ship to play. I cannot say what ship I play the best.
My worst ship? Mycon, maybe.
On other note, I can't beat the AI controlled umgah. Any hints?

Although I am supreme newb to any kind of super melee I very early became fond of two ships - the Pkunk Fury (for it's agility and combat insults  ) and Melnorme Trader (very good primary weapon and I like captain Greenish). Currently I'm trying to master Arilou and Kohr-Ar, the latter being somewhat more difficult than the Skiff :p

I feel sorry for you, EP. I hope you haven't completely wasted your life on UQM. Can we ban him soon? How about now?
Surely you know that I wasn't being serious? <_< (Heck, I've hardly got a life.)
I think Shiver's goal in life is to get me banned... I didn't know you hated me THAT much. In that case, why don't you just stay put in the SCDB where I am already banned forever? But then again, you would have failed at your goal, right?
Of course I still think there was no one reason why I was banned from the SCDB... Sedodes complained about all my "junk posts", while some were complaining about my childish behavior (the more sensible beings...). Shiver must just hate me because I wrongly believed I was great at Melee and I never said "Sorry I didn't bow down and submit to your overwhelming power, almighty Shiver the Great". So Shiver is yet another guy who is just being dumb about things. Grow up, Shiver.
