yup, u r right. But, even if Hammer wins against Firebirdin 1v1, its not like that when u play in TDM or DM.... if we have TDM between a team of Firebird and a team of Hammer players, ill go to bet on the Firebird team... if they have anti Hammer paints its even more clear they will win...(talking about experienced players not starters)... In my opinion , the Firebird playing style can be improoved and developped by trying a Hammer playing style... its verry similar, in my opinion... And about Vulcan, sincerly , i think its verry bad ... i'd rather buy Smoky M1 than Vulcan M1 haha :)

Firebird and Hornet is my best combo... but Hammer makes the best change if u want to try new things... still, i think Hammer and Vulcan are not the only OP in game... Firebird is another one too

i really think Hornet is the best choice for starters and even experienced players. It has speed and a good armor level ... the size of the hull makes another advantage. it can get through all the small spaces in all maps, just like Wasp can.. but it still has more armor. non-skilled players may not know how to manuvre Hornet well, but manuvering Wasp is even harder. Anyway, in my opinion Hornet is best choice for all ranks but Hunter stands a great option and i strongly recomand to try both Hunter and Hornet gameplays. im looking forward in haveing Hunter M1... ( i already have Hornet M1)
