here is the screen very begining of the finals. Jove started with 4 cons. And there is 5 squads vs OH 6. If he build t1 there will be minimum 1.5 squads down vs anything OH can do. When he techs to T3 it will be 2- 2.5 squads disadvantage. Thats obvious i dont get how anyone question that

Just a clarification regarding damage
- Both mortars deal normal damage when autoattacking
- One mortar deals reduced damage barraging (the one-shotting radius is reduced by 75%)

Now, regarding the rate of fire:
- The two mortars have different aiming time (0.5 secs vs 1 second) applied between reloads
- This means that the 2nd mortar takes 0.5 second extra between shots
- Given that the reload time for both around ~8secs, the 1st mortar doesn't fire twice as fast
- I am guessing they introduced this so that the two shots don't synchronize to reduce insta-wipe chance

Takeaway: In order to utilize the mortar pit to its max potential, never use barrages. Instead, you should set-and-forget like a pro.

Does it justify their near immortality and the fact that it has two? Hell no.
