(eg) more time on the front line = more creep killin = more money = exploit
If he's been hosting for a long time, he should've figured out by now that people won't listen and stop hosting "noobs allowed" games when he BANS -every- single noob in them!

OK look, buying a hull costs money, that money can be used instead for weapons or a new tank which can cause your new, more powerful skills, to overcome the hull!
This may shock you m0rb, but there are only 6 slots for items, having a hull reduces your damage capabilities because you have less slots for weapons.
Let's say the frost robot dude has 13khp (theoretically, don't flame at me you people who crunch the numbers daily) and my heli has 2 gold hulls with 13khp, I can only have 4 weapons, the frost robot can have 6, or the usual 5 and a speed pack.
Let's say we BOTH have the exact same weapons - I have 4*TLF and he has 5*TLF. all upgraded. Now, he'll do more damage and me and beat me and also then kill more creeps and buildings. Killing me = more time on the front line uninterupted = more creep killing = more money = exploit. So NOT having hulls is an exploit. Furthermore the skills of the frost robot are more powerful than those of the helicopter so the frost robot would be able to kill me faster and not sustain as much damage, being able to stay in the creep lines and use the runes to heal.
