No, that guy deserves all that he gets. Besides, the franchise never really died, it just wasn't in the public eye for so long.

I guess you could call those dark years where everything was barely even completed anime and that Kiss Players abomination a coma of sorts.

I take back everything bad I said about the bamboozler. You don't even need to charge it if you have decent aim, just spam the gently caress out of it. It needs burst bombs or something though.

It is. It's pretty weird, which is probably why I want to get good with it. If I had my way, though, I'd drop the ink wall and the killer wail and replace it with burst bombs and burst bomb rush--I want people to think twice before closing in on a bamboozler.

I'm pretty sure it can be a one-hit-kill weapon if you stack damage ups. I fought against a guy on flounder who was using a bamboozler and had damage up in every primary ability slot, and it sure seemed like he was one-shotting me. I tend not to pay attention to my health until I get splatted, though. :v:

If you land a fully-charged shot, a second totally uncharged shot can be fired instantly, and that's enough to finish the other player off. Those double-taps might be why you felt like you were getting one-shotted.

The biggest issue with the Bamboozler is that it doesn't have the satisfying glass-shattering sound effect when you nail someone with it.

Mario vs Link is more classic gaming rivalry, while Mario vs Luigi is just a sibling rivalry, and more a younger generations rivalry (in my opinion, most people didn't start repping Luigi until 1st Gen Smash Bros)

This is a very sound theory. I just went 8-0 with the bamboozler in walleye, and I was doing exactly that. Ended up third on my team, outshooting a guy with a dual squelcher. It helped that my team was real good while the other side was...not.

I dunno, I don't see why people care about either of the generic voiceless protagonist dudes who front their respective franchises. Though choosing based on franchise quality would be hard. That's why a Luigi option is personally more appealing.

I feel like Mario vs anyone else would result in a huge popularity loss for Mario. You wouldn't vote for Mario in a Splatfest for the same reason you wouldn't play him in Smash, he's the most boring possible option.

Except Mario vs Sonic which is a clear Mario win

Abilities that are noticeably better than other options; Cold-blooded, Comeback, Tenacity, Recon, Stealth Jump

Everything else is either only useful on certain guns, not very noticeable, or outright useless. If you're not playing ranked you shouldn't care about gear at all. If you are playing ranked, you should think about it more for each mode since you want every edge you can get. Still, try to be fresh and not look like a complete idiot otherwise Marie will make fun of you behind your back.

No, the number of hits needed to kill someone with a specific weapon is hard coded into the game. You cannot use damage ups to decrease how many hits it takes to kill someone.

What you can do with the bamboozler though, is cap the damage to 99.9 so that literally any amount of them touching enemy ink will make it a 1 hit.

I'm pretty sure that enemy ink cannot kill on its own, it just brings you down to about half health. If they enter enemy ink and then you sit them, that'd work even with add unlikely as it is.
