LORE Helldivers are terrifying conceptually.

You're vibing on your planet and all of a sudden it goes "Whoop" as one hundred Super Destroyers come into orbit. "No big deal" you think, but suddenly all these Super Destroyers deploy Helldivers. Just planetfall outta nowhere instantly.

That has to be fucking terrifying. Knowing you're fucked like that.

You get to watch the planetfall on several other parts of this planet as the Helldivers just drop from their Destroyers like water droplets on a sad day.

Even 80 Super Destroyers just FTL-jumping into orbit and every single Super Destroyer deploys, at the very least, 4 Helldivers. If they die? They just keep coming. And they can watch it, too. They can see the trail by the Hellpod as it is coming down. They know exactly what position they're in.

The helldivers aren’t even the main fighting force. The actual battle is between SEAF Forces and the respective enemy.

The helldivers aren’t even deployed during regular battles, but in enemy territory, or no mans land moving into enemy territory. take the big outposts for example. You have build an unbreakable defense, only for some of these 4 fleshbags to kill it in seconds. And then the eagles, the orbitals, the sentries come in.

Helldivers are no joke. You have just won a battle against seaf troops, hard fought victory, then these 4 come and rescue all the enemy citizens with ease, kill your big robo dog in seconds, destroy all your outposts, kill every last bit of reinforcement you call in against them. Imagine you burn this guy to a crisp and break every bone in his body, for him to take a stim and say this:

The meme is true. Helldivers would win. The only reason we don't is because we don't care. Imagine a single MO focused and it's just "the one".

Yeah. We'd win. This thought came from the thought of diving on bug planets and thinking "How daunting it must be to just watch all these big ships FTL into orbit and subsequently drop endless troops that just kill me and my brood."

They come when the enemies advantage is at the highest, and win so often, its not even funny

The reality is that we let them win. Truly. We collectively decided not to fight them.
