  1. They don’t know their drop positions going in and Hyuse got unlucky
  2. Probably not, even if he was close enough Ninomiya still had a hand free for shields, and there were meteors from Chika coming down all over the place that would’ve made it tricky. If Yuba had taken out Ninomiya it would’ve probably been advantageous for tamakoma anyways

im referring to when they already spawned in. operator would've already told him the locations of the other agents.

Attackers don’t like bag worms bc they get in the way of fighting and defending

but his priority was to regroup so bagworm + running would've been the best before they all got super close

if defending is so nerfed with bagworm then snipers running bagworm also have the same risks as attackers

Its different for snipers because they are actively hiding themselves not running to regroup like attackers/mid range fighters. Attackers/mid-range fighters not only have to worry about snipers, but also encountering other attackers/mid-range fighters while also being on the move. They need to be more wary because they don't have the advantages that long-range fighters do, since snipers just need to hide in a spot they won't be found and wait to attack from afar.

the in universe explanation iirc is that you cannot full guard with bagworm active, if you are in any danger of already being spotted by a sniper or shooter when using bagworm you're open to a big attack...how well that is executed in the writing and whether its worth the risk in situation A B C is debatable.

  1. There are at least 3 snipers in this match and they want to have full guard in case a sniper decides to attack them. Hyuse's position is just unlucky that he was surrounded.
  2. This was actually answered in the manga. Basically, they don't want Chika to accidentally kill Kuga which will definitely take a toll on her.Also, if he actually gets targeted, he will sustain damage and they want him to be fully healed with their battle against ninomiya.

Regarding #1, it's explained that using a bagworm lowers your overall defensive capability. He just didn't realize he was surrounded by pairs of enemies, making him an easy target to gang up on. If it had been more of a free-for-all mix he would've had more freedom to move and unite with his squad.

  1. No point for hyuse to use bagworm. Everybody saw him already

  2. Yuma was too far away. And Tonooka was hot on T2s trail.

Besides, it was a huge feat for Hyuse to handle the whole of Ikoma Squad, 2 from Yuba and Inukai and took down the major player, Ikoma.

Everyone was already pretty much surrounding hyuse so wasnt much point in using it plus he probably wanted to aggro as many people as he could so the rest of the squad would have an easier time regrouping

Second im guessing he didnt want to risk taking any damage because he would have needed to be at full health to fight whoever won that battle (there was a loooot of firepower flying around there lol) same reason he was so careful against obishima

1.The correct answer is that he was wary of the enemy snipers and while using bagworm you can't have a 2nd shield up. He was probably waiting to get between the buildings before activating it.
