I think the machine gun should be named Barrel because of its apperance

Pizzaslad, that may be true, but M1 and M0 Freeze is better than M0 and M1 Firebird, making it a tie. also, beginners might read this to see which turret is better. So they may not get to that point in a long time

In gameplay, I think it would be a tie, as long as they have the same upgrades, and on a hull with the same stats. Freeze deals slightly more damage, allowing it to destroy Firebird first. However, Firebird still deals damage after it stops shooting, as a result, shortly after the battle, Freeze will be destroyed. this is not for heavy hulls If a heavy hull was chosen, Freeze will win because of a shorter reload time.
