It was said before that the best combos are ones made with cov op pods. Co attack class only works if you use beetles alongside ter/zik. FR is a def only class as it has no answer to sylph and since viper got the big Co nerf you cant even use vipers to help the fr team. Zik BS is useable but there arent enough caths going bs yet for it to be viable. And zik Cr is awful. So over all zik is a hard target to hit if you are using de or Cr otherwise zik is just another easy target that can get rock-paper-scissors def and win.
Imo FR is ok as atking class. It is covered by sylph, but hulls 1 def is hardly fakeable, so each terran can cover one inc usually. Furthermore, sylph is fragily against cutlass and phantom, so the defense either cover for FI (which this round is not that easy task) or will risk losing sylphs.
Co on the other hand cant land Phantom defense. And each xan can stop 3 incs alone. Furthermore, CO can't be faked easily. Unbalanced.
