Hey guys,

are Micro / Small / Medium Smart Bombs of any use for PVP purposes? I know the large ones can be used to insta-pop frigs but the smaller ones have less range and significantly less damage.

medium shadow serp retails at about 20m if your flying a rapier/falcon/azaru stick one on there and see how well it works

The non-large ones can be used to pop ECM-drones. I feel that they're actually the perfect counter for this tactic.

Smartbombs are mainly for killling drones off these days, and for that mediums work just fine. Smalls can still kill ECM drones in a semi-reasonable timeframe, but take too long versus t2 drones in general.

Micro's? Uh maybe on a covert ops that's trying to aggro someone before they log off, but ECM bursts are generally better for that.
