    Would be neat to have just in time for the oncoming jetpack swarm.

    Indeed, especially since the fade doesn't have its ranged attack anymore. So the lerk is pretty much the only lifeform which can shoot Jetpackers down...

    I don't think Acid Rocket got a lot of use in shooting down jetpacks in the first place, though. It was all about catching up with them using Leap, Blink, or Lerk, then mauling them with melee.

    I think this raises an interesting question about skulk leap/bite vs jetpack marine. Will leap in it's current implementation launch the skulk high/fast enough to catch a jetpack marine? I think they should, because otherwise it's just silly.

    I can't see skulks killing jetpackers at all until midleap bite is fixed.

    This! Needs really be fixed and the other animations (changing to cysts, hydra delay).

    Webs are just great to get those Marine-flies down. Hope to see them ingame or smth similar.
