Can a juggernaut use the nuclear energy supply?  That seems like the best place to use it if possible.

If you have jammer immunity on can you immediately activate your overdrive after using nuclear energy?

My problem with blunderbuss is the randomness of criticals.  When I use it the critical hits rarely come when I want them.  This can be mitigated with hornet and dictator supercharge ODs but I don't use those hulls often.

Looks like I'll play MM from Monday 11 to Thursday 14, because of the tempting Tier 1 - Tier 5.

As far as I know it will be exclusive to Challenges.

I don’t think the Nuclear Energy supply will change that much. There are only like 4 in the challenge, so you’d only be able to use one every 3 days or so (unless you saved them for a LONG time). 
 

Unless someone is obviously chaining ODs (either one right after another or in pretty quick succession) it’ll just seem like regular OD usage. 
 

We’ll see how it actually plays out in-game though, and I’m expecting to be proven wrong at some point. 
 

EDIT: Watch as someone saves up Nuclear Energy supplies and then goes on a nonstop OD rampage in several months.

Imagine if a wasp has hundreds of these supplies and starts spamming those bombs in enemy base. It'll be like mines in parkour but much much worse.

Imagine hopper spamming jumps to get to higher places with ease.

Imagine crusader spamming its icicles, it'll literally be a secondary turret, same with ares.

Imagine Viking getting this over and over again.

Imagine titan using back to back domes.

Imagine mammoth using this as a better speed boost and killing everyone on the way.

 

Now I want you to imagine how fast players would finish the OD missions with this supply.

Don't be surprised if there's bundles of them in Ultra Containers... at the ultra rare end...

The algorithm is working :)

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

Please can you increase the number of Tankions for the silver tier. I do not need a nuclear energy supply in challenges because I can easily pick this supply up in any matchmaking battles. The free Tankions is what I need most in challenges.

[Incorp 2,084]

I have new compliments to you tanki. Sorry for my last negative post. I just found out you were giving paints in the silver tier. Kudos to you! Eat resistance for hopper... oh my you have learnt your lesson well tanki.. F2P ALL THE WAY!!!

Harpoon.... I love you all the way devs!

Did you ever heard about "delay"?
And they will be rare so no you can't spam them like mines.
A player saving the new supplies for months wont spend them all in the same single match.. just think about it.

They'll eventually make it available to purchase in the garage, shop, and earned through containers and missions.

 

As for the delay, we will have to wait and see if they add it. My hunch is telling me that they will botch it like alot of others they have done before.

[Flexoo 6,980]

To be very honest, the nuclear supply does not seem necessary.  The game is already way too much centralized around using ODs in the battle. Half of the time in battle I am spending just by dodging enemy ODs or timing my own. Yes, the supply might not be distributed in large masses, but still, it seems like adding more fuel to the fire, even if just by drops.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What would be the incentive for doing that?

One word: money.

They'll go back on their word eventually.

If Nuclear Energy made it into the garage, containers, and mission rewards, wouldn't that make it more common and less valuable, and thus reduce the incentive to buy it for real money? I feel that making it rare and locking it behind a battle pass paywall keeps its desirability high.

Well, I agree, they should keep it rare. However, I don't expect them to keep it behind challenges forever.

i just remembered that i got fire resistance for hopper so a blanked tier to me

Well they said it was for now only, as the supply is very rare and giving them elsewhere (in bundles etc.) would make people buy a lot of its quantity which in turn would ruin the balance of the game. Thus, it is available to all the players, irrespective of whether they are a buyer or not on an equal bases. But yesterday I saw in the vlog that later on they are planning to release it by other means.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

Please, please, please give players more free Tankions.
