What ship is your Nemesis?

Type 9's...


They get stuck in the slot, and flap about like a demented fish and either force me to use the log-out trick so I don't get blown up by a timeout or queue up for ages waiting for them to get destroyed.
Brought one when they were going cheap at L3447, hoping to make huge money in it on my usual trade run. While I did make nearly double what my python did the thing was utterly hateful to fly. It was slow, stupid short range and was concerned that if I kept it for too long I'd have an arm like popeye due to the effort.
.
Now back in the python, it doesn't make as much c/hr as the Type 9, but it's a polar opposite to fly.
 
not really a secret (look signature), i have two nemesis, the two most cheated and OP ships of the game, the Cobra and the ASP

they are so specialized in everything that i'm shocked, never seen so much inegality in any game, it is revolting, insulting for the other ships, i really, really hate there mighty, extremly OP stats, and if it were my call i would nerf them by 20% everywhere or even delete them

do not cross my path if you pilot one of those things, i'm not angry against the pilot, but the ship
 
I have a Python. I have no nemisis

Good point :D

...A nod of respect to the Adder though, it takes a surprising amount of punishment for a cheap ship, i'd make a massive beeline for one if i was starting from scratch again.

The Adder was the ship that got me started fighting, and it was a great joy to fly. Really loved that ship. So good she was that I even though I could beat a Conda all by my own, and without shield cells! I barely managed to scape with 1% hull and a couple of minutes of oxygen, but survived.

Another story with the Conda involves a collision with my ASP (which barely survived) and a big explosion with emergency ejection moments afterwards.

Overall, the Anaconda is the ship that brought me most harm, so she wins the nemesis prize.

Type-9 Heavy. I hate those space cows. They always block up the docking bay and get stuck! I lost an Asp to an NPC Type-9 that rammed me; had to start over from the beginning in a Sidewinder (didn't have enough for insurance).
 
Anaconda here too, especially with those pink ball's o' death - took on one for an assassination mission and it 2-shotted my poor cobra before I could do anything :(. Conversely I find Asps the easiest (combat) NPCs to take down which has put me off upgrading to one :). Not tried taking on a python yet - I remember they were about the easiest to kill in the original Elite, don't think it will be the case here :D.

Sorry but... 10 points for that signature sir...
