Is Lyth`s worth while?

I was wondering what do people think about Lyth`s expensive cost/upkeep for Virals? is it practical to be in a viral`s stack?

There is other ship you could use a viral then the Lyth. Unless you want to spam fast...you have to pay the price. BUT It`s a nice missile ship...nice as spam as well(I know something about that lol )

Tyr is better than lyth offensively but not defensively.
S Squaks
lyth perob one of the best ships in the game atm, the only prob its its expensive but if your tax income than you shouldn`t be bothered by its cost
P PistolPete
Depends on the application.

Is Tyr a better Lyth ?

" It`s a good ship though,but the new upkeep renders it useless at higher PR ( if you`re a viral)."

Guess you missed this line from my previous post.What I meant is,Lyth isn`t commonly used if you`re a Viral fighting at high PR. It`s still a very good ship,and often used by Virals till 50 mil PR . From my experience I dare say I haven`t seen A SINGLE viral spam Lyths above that. If you`ve got the economy of BadWolf or some other fat Viral,you might even spam it,but I doubt you`d prefer spamming Lyths instead of something cheaper and more efficient.

Other than that,everything I said is similar to DMs.

lyth is a very good ship! And keep in mind that the upkeep may be lowered.
D DrunkenMasters
Lyth is a good ship. Don`t listen to Lord. You just need to pay the right price for it. At higher PR if you have good economy it is very good spam ship. But in a stack it is not quite efficient, unless it is in the lower stacks and it is just a flanker with no ship against it in round 1(if you know what I mean).
L LordaeroN
After the latest Lyth nerf,I`d never ever use it again. I personally used it when fighting under 100m PR,but above that it`s no good. It`s a good ship though,but the new upkeep renders it useless at higher PR ( if you`re a viral). It`s always nice to have some lyths in your stacks in the form of flankers or dummies,but I wouldn`t use it unless the ocassion is special.
