Cucumber I'm always up for water 1v1. Just catch me when I'm on. I'd also recommend Xanthe as a good water player.

All good water maps, there's remakes all over the place if you look hard enough. I have them, if they're not anywhere else.

OTA FTW
If you play Anteer Strait for spring, then be aware that it has a bunch of "extras", such as meteors and aliens appearing from them, but these can be deselected in the mapoptions if you want a "normal" game.

Skeeter rush is useless mostly because of capture. Capture is the comms ultimate weapon underwater. If you make 2-3 skeeters, the number required to actually do some damage despite capture, then that costs the same as a vette and you might as well be making that instead, since it will beat 2-3 skeeters. Skeeter rush is only ever good if you suspect air.

Also, Hovers + Subs is deadly, since hovers are immune to everything that hurts subs, and vice-versa.

Who loses a skeeter to capture though? Sure you can't stay indefinitely because of that but it's easy enough to not get fully done. Just pop in and out, wail on that tidal, and force the comm to not building for a moment. And get out alive.

Its main reason should be to just scout anyway, and force the enemy to protect its cons.
