Dynamo Roller - Techniques and Concepts

opponent hiding below and unsure how to aim at them safely? this technique will teach you how to gauge your aim using visual cues.
-bloblobber (with bounced blobs) BLOCK
-bloblobber (direct hit only, no bounces) [65] THREATEN

you really have to pay attention to the terrain and gauge whether or not the bloblobber can trail its blobs past your range

-nautlius 47 [60] THREATEN

do not engage until it begins to shoot- it could hold charge and swim forward to get the jump

Blindspotting- how and why & what to do

Righthandedness- extended hitbox and dry roll
advanced concept that takes into account your damage based on distance and essentially playing mindgames with the opponent

critical info*

BCT redone for blasters to take into account the extra range they receive while moving forward.

this momentum boost offsets the placings by 5 dmg.

ie: clash blaster is not guaranteed OHKO vflick and joins the threaten tier

all other blasters remain in their same BCT tier.


added section on maximizing range
added new weapons for bct.
- block: ballpoint , same range as hydra
- challenge: explosher , same range as jet squelcher
