Warthogs have been underperforming in many ways for a while.

The Jackrabbit had a bug that people brought to our attention which decreased the LOS when you picked a leader power for Jerome.

So, when the Yappening happened, a fun idea was put in place to make Rangers really good. Well, they are a tier 2 anti-infantry unit so why not help them out even more! To make them better we have added an additional 3rd elite into the squad. However, to not make it 50% stronger, we have reduced the health and damage of the individual rangers by a bit to still make it a buff, but not a ridiculous one. | So, when the Yappening happened, a fun idea was put in place to make Rangers really good.

Scorpions are getting an overall damage buff to help them be more viable in general. Hornets are getting a survivability nerf as well as damage against AA reduced so that AA can be more effective against mass air spam. In addition, the Cyclops is under performing and is receiving a small HP buff for now, this will be watched closely and addressed again as needed. | Scorpions are getting an overall damage buff to help them be more viable in general.
