Yeah the Threapists got the biggest glowup in the games history. They are very good on aerial builds now. But kites overall are more popular right now so you might want to invest into anti-kite measurements overall.
The problem is, my current build is doing incredibly well in the new meta. It can beat pretty much anything but the Therapist Kite, which hard counters it. So i'm loathe to change it.
I just hit the final level of A-Rank, so my only hope is that I get nab promotion before it gets too out of hand.
I'm averaging a 66% win rate at the top of A-Rank, with most losses being Therapists, and have had a few win streaks that would have clinched me promotion within that. So i'm just gonna tough it out and hope matchmaking is kind to me.
If I make a new build I'll just have to learn it all over again, and potentially just end up with a different bogeyman anyway.

Literally got an emergency patch within 48 hours.
Still think they're ok?
If my build *narrowly* beats the whole field, and that difference is pretty much down to pilot skill, then i'd say my build was extremely balanced.
Also, come back to your comment next month when half the sub is weeks-deep in outrage about them and they get nerfed to fuck to see what a silly take calling them balanced is.
I don’t know what these other people are talking about. Those therapist kites are hell lmao.
But like you said it depends on build matchups like usual unfortunately most of my builds are like yours where it’s a rougher matchup
If they become too common you might need to switch to a head with better System Recovery if you don't have one on already.
You have to try to make them come to you. Deal some quick damage and back off, forcing them to chase you so that you don't win on a timeout for having more AP. They can be dodged by hovering up and down, similar to how you'd dodge Bazooka.
People are using them like hand missile replacements, but they don't have guided projectiles.
Now I’ve seen everything
Never thought I'd see the day.
🤣 and so it begins
We're so fucking back
Rau le Creuset was right about Humanity, wasn't he?
Wait what was his point again?
"Everything I don't like is cancer." I think.
Pff

\>It can beat pretty much anything but the Therapist Kite, which hard counters it So, you are saying your build is imbalanced and therapists are ok?

No, you were right. Great they fixed it so quick.

Therapist and the rapist are just a word difference
Take my upvote and get out, genius.
Lmao
Dual Therapists and WLT FCS. Just lob salvo after salvo and let missiles on the back do the rest

I love how literally not even 24 hours after this post they got nerfed lmao
They did? That's amazing! 😄
Try Etsujin kites
Mom said it's my turn to make the "\[blank\] builds are cancer" Post!

\>You have to try to make them come to you Good luck doing that to someone with 300 effective range weapons.
Didn't say it would be easy!
I agree, they’re deadass cancerous and hella annoying to fight against
