How come bits and funnels can do a lot of damage and slice a MS in half.

Meanwhile Balls, which are a lot bigger, can't do shit.

Shit comes from the ass, not the balls.

Balls are like those old cannons with wagon wheels
They pack a punch but fuck you actually have to hit something
Funnels are basically mind controlled flying glocks

It seems like the average viewer is really underestimating just how bullshit fighting against a newtype is. Try putting yourself in the shoes of a soldier rolling around a cannon and blindly firing a musket into a dusty battlefield and then you see a bunch of sentient flying swords coming your way

Balls didn't have beam weapons like funnels and bits. By the time E-PACs were standard, any other MS is more cost efficient to deploy.

>Balls, which are a lot bigger
Balls also need a cockpit and life support. Funnels and bits don't. They're a small reactor or battery, a few thrusters, and a weapon.

>>23901322
>which are a lot bigger
That's the entire fucking cause of the issue, dummy. Because Balls are larger and have more mass, they're less agile and far easier to shoot down. The thing that makes bits and funnels dangerous is that they're extremely small and can boost and twist and turn on a dime, in no small part due to not having to limit their acceleration for fear of whiplashing the pilot to death. This not only makes them more difficult to destroy, but also allows them to quickly maneuver into enemies' blind spots and shoot them in the back.

I doubt the average pilot can even see bits/funnels before they kill them. Shit is small. Balls on the other hand are slow and large enough to shoot first.

The ball fucks

Bits are beam weapons which are directly controlled by an autists' brain while also being significantly more maneuverable than a Ball. Balls are typically piloted by normal people while being significantly larger, heavier, and less maneuverable.
Balls manage to kill things now and again but it's typically not very glorious. They get some kills on Gattles in 0079 for example but the scenes are all very quick.

There are probably some super-powerful Ball units that are like the units from Heavy Object but optimized for Gundam's combat.
