I agree Mirage could be shrunk a lot, but I still think getting ahead of Shadow is a big challenge -- improving APS at that level is really difficult! For one thing, Mirage is way worse at 1v1s than Shadow, which means whenever it's paired with Shadow (or another surfer) it gets lots of 2nds and very few 1sts.

It would definitely be a challenge, and Mirage's movement and/or gun might not be the right approach, but I think Mirage is proof that it's possible. If somebody had suggested a mini could beat Shadow before you'd released Mirage I'd have laughed but not anymore!
