Leperman, your diagram has happened quite alot, but there's a reason Delta has three weapons to fire in unison as any given time. The idea of the YASYA is indeed to pressure the opponent, but it also changes the battlefield by quite alot once one is deployed. So the given scenario you provided was almost exclusively possible with people that do nothing but backpedal for entire matches.
As I said before, the newly limited area is somewhere the opponent won't usually go. This allows me to close-in to a more ideal space and really put the main source of damage on my target, namely URANUS + PIXIE3 + DRAGON at once. YASYA is intended entirely for control of the battlefield.
I assure you, chasing Dacapn when he OBs away after deploying the YASYA wasn't easy at all, but this allowed for me to have a very good estimate of where his next course of movement was. What I need to do is get in close with my target, deploy, and watch them either take the most likely route to 'safety', or run straight towards the OC and be caught in the pincer.
Just remember, the YASYA is entirely for battefiled control, and it is by no means Delta Mk.II's primary method of attacking. When the enemy moves away from the orbital by in any direction, I'm already right on their case in an up-close manner. Because my targets rarely go near the OCs, I'm able to close-in without having to worry about them going right behind me.
If they do go behind me, they'll anwer to the YASYA OCs (or even the pincer if they hesitate going around or through them).
I'm trying to make this sound as simple as possible, and this method hasn't worked more than 40% in each match, but I attribute that to my lack of practice with it against human players.
Besides, if someone really does use 100% backpedaling tactics, I'll either drop the YASYA for the extra speed and EN Supply, or just quit the match out of boredom. I'm not the AI, and when someone says 'they have no choice' but to backpedal, they're wrong.
Unless they're a tank, because tanks can do anything just like ninjas.
Regardless though, Delta Mk.II has the speed, defense, and overall firepower to perform just fine with this difficult-but-awesome method of attack.
And Leperman, there isn't a single player I have met that backpedals Delta Mk.II at a range of 110m or less, because that's the ideal target range for the URANUS + PIXIE3 + DRAGON to hit their target with great accuracy. I usually deploy the YASYA right next to them and close-in.
DFA is also heavily discouraged by the YASYA OCs because no-one wants to hover above or move in a downward direction towards them for any reason at all, lol.
I encourage more questions, it helps me see any possible flaws in the design.
