Not to be a smart-mouth, but if you want to bandy it about, I suggest spelling it better: avant-garde.
LOL, I was in a hurry and paying little attention :p
So it seems to me like the Wasabi Splattershot is the main weapon that everybody's using, followed by
the Fresh Squiffer and the Permanent Inkbrush. Everything else seems to be few & far in between, especially the Tempered Dynamo Roller. I wonder if the swim speed nerf has anything to do with that...
That's not surprising, the Wasabi is the bog standard "standard" weapon. Balanced in all things, and now finally is the most bog standard shooter with the most bog standard sub. Hard to top complete balance. But it's boring :p But who DIDN'T see that coming? :)
Squiffer and inkbrush, I don't think everyone's using them because they're so good, but because they're finally actually viable forms of really fun weapons that were previously of limited viability due to the kits :) I doubt we'll see droves of squiffer and brush mains pop up after the fun wears off, we'll just see more of them than before.
Lol, I'm actually going to be using the Fresh Squiffer over any of the Boozlers, but I just liked the idea of Burst Bomb Boozlers. . . Too bad they went off and nerfed the Burst Bomb to hell and back. With that said though, I feel the MK II is the best of the three. Disruptor + quick Charge 2HKOs is pretty amazing and tough to beat. The Mk II is what I mained for a little while until I saw the Fresh Squiffer's loadout.
If Hydra does get that loadout, I'm sticking to my custom/Vanilla. . . Beakons are cool, but I can't stand Inkstrike. Disruptor/Suction Bomb + Kraken please and thanks. :D
hehe, the burst boozler, I haven't tried yet, I imagine it's fun but I can't imagine it keeps up with mk1 and mk2. I've seen a lot of people that prefer the mk2 but I've been playing with both the mk1 and mk2 and they both have their uses. Saltspray zones for example kind of "meh" with disruptors but walls are DEVASTATING. AnchoV zones on the other hand, disruptors all the way! Compared to those two options, burst bombs are just so...bland.
But Fresh squiffer, I saved that and inkbrush for today when I'm more awake patch dropped way too late last night) because I'm going to looove those weapons! :)
They don't like giving great kits to heavy weapons. It'll be beacons and inkstrike :p Though I can see suction bombs and kraken - they like mainstreaming stuff, I can see Hydra going that route. Too similar to CLiter with the kraken, though.
FWIW I briefly played with soda slosher (It's a good weapon but I'm kind of ambivalent about it. Never was a slosher fan but it's a lot better now!) Berry SSPro is amazing though I think most of the awesome comes from the main weapon buff and the fresh paint job than the suction bombs. IMO it's a better squelcher than squelcher now, and the range and speed might be a little TOO much. It feels less like an SSPro that used to have to be used charger-like and more like a more powerful JS. It's awesome...and I'm good with it....but I fear that SSPro in all forms is the new TTK. OP NEEDZ NUURRF!! ;)
All the bomb rushes now though are kind of game breaking and highly irritating. It shuts down too much of the map too long, and grinds the framerate into non-stop lag. That's not what the WiiU hardware needs.
