Best way to use a blue shell is to be last place until you get it, drift your way to second place, and then use the shell while first place is on a jump. At least that's what I'd do to my older brother, he was better than me at the game but I was creatively petty.
The probe gun from saints row 4. You literally cram a probe up their backside, run around with them on it flailing around, then launch them into the sky where they explode like a bottle rocket.
My issue with the blue shell is that it won't even help the player that uses it. If you are in 8th-12th and you bomb first you gain nothing. All you did was screw over a better player so some one OTHER than you can take 1st
I hate the fact that Call of Duty decided to cater to quickscopers. I actually like using snipers, but I use them properly. Find a nice spot, try to take out a couple, then move so people can't find you. But they made it harder and harder to actually be a sniper while making it easier to quickscope.
No one feels bad for using the Blue Shell, the Splat Roller or the Ancient Arrows. Ancient Arrows are useful against enemies you don’t want to deal with, like the countless Yiga that try ambushing you, the Splat Roller has a LOT of fans, and several people main the Splat Roller, and the Blue Shell is great for taking out somebody who is in first place.
@@Nyperold018 You can not imagine how many Yiga tried to ambush me and I just pulled out my Ancient Arrows, as I didn’t want to deal with them when I’m walking somewhere. Especially if it is a Yiga Blademaster and I’m on a ledge that I could be knocked off of. Sure I won’t get the drops from them, but I don’t care. If it means I don’t have to waste my weapon’s durability in a fight against a Yiga Blademaster, I will gladly use my Ancient Arrows. I also use Ancient Arrows against Guardians, because they are a one shot against Guardians if you shoot them in the eye.
The Splat Roller is my weapon of choice. I love melee weapons and at the time it was the only melee weapon. It also is great for coverage so you aren't being a dick if you use it. You are a different kind of teammate.
@@joesunday199 I’m generally a Dread Wringer user in Splatoon 3, as it is my favorite Slosher. Now its stats might not be good, but it’s got a good Loadout of Suction Bombs and Reefslider, and is able to be a good Trick Skirmisher and help support your team by Zoning out opponents.
I agree with everything you said except the blue shell, the blue shell is BS. If you are the better driver in a racing game and you're in first you shouldn't be able to be knocked out of first place by an unavoidable item. Getting too and staying in first place requires actual skill. Hitting someone with an unavoidable attack that locks onto the person in first place is so overpowered and just honestly unfair. I've played a good amount of Mario cart and unless you have a really good gap on everyone else in the race then that shell pretty much guarantees that you get knocked out of place. Anytime I get hit with it too it seems to be right before the race ends so I have no time to try to retake first.
Dickish honorable mentions: Cerebral bore- turok 2 Rebar crossbow- halflife 2 (might not kill you, but pinning you to a wall by your leg/arm...dick move) Insect ammo- oddworld strangers wrath and bioshock (torture swarms) Taser-splinter cell (?) Infinite ammo stealth weapon that causes you to combust
In one of my Scion 2e RPGs, one player was playing a Scion of Din (she homebrewed a Hylian pantheon) and created a quiver that randomly gave her different arrows and the Ancient Arrow was one of those... I think the random roll only ever gave her one, but she definitely found it fun. Also, the Shark Mastery epic power set in City of Heroes has lots of summon-shark uses. And one is a ghost shark that you can summon to attack and shake up an enemy.
If the blue shell's on here, then the warp orb from Crash Team Racing: Nitro-fueled certainly earns a spot. Not only does it do exactly as the blue shell does (aims for first place), but it can hit everyone along the way, and worst of all, YOU CAN GET IT IN SECOND PLACE. We have a rule in my house, unanimously agreed upon, when playing split screen: second place with a warp orb has to wait for first to get a shield. EDIT - unless using it is funny.
Deliverer from Fallout 4 and before I get alot of hate hear me out, you can get it really early only taking a short trip to railroad hq and the next quest, it requires a stupidly common ammo type, its silenced and with a vats build (theres a build that just focuses on this gun) the gun is a monster able to clear out entire areas without being noticed without leaving Vats so you dont even have to aim it if you dont want to and with its legendary it reduces vats cost so early on the gun gave so many vats shots they couldnt track them all till they patched it. Literally makes open season in Nuka World a joke.
Once my friend and I were playing goldeneye64 in multiplayer with golden gun mode on (one shot one kill), and I snaped a shot at some movement I thought I saw. Got the frag.
I think the Penetrator on SWT3rd shouldn't be here. The Blackhole Generator is much more of a meme weapon or even the Dubstep gun (which literally kills your opponent by dancing until dead) but should come on further videos. Still pretty accurate entries lol
( Just my opinion,Chill) Never liked Mario Kart because of the rubber banding it did to the driver in first place. If your driving skills are way better than riders, you shouldn't be punished for being way too far from others. Also Jules you're awesome, it's crazy how you can sidetrack from the story then come back like nothing happened is hilarious. Keep up the great work Champ
I was awful at Titanfall so I used the Smart Pistol while I while I was getting to grips with the rest of the game. When I was more confident about playing the game I found a new weapon that I felt comfortable using and switched to that and happily settled into my middle of the pack position. That said I can imagine just how horrible if someone who was actually good at the game used it as their primary weapon.
Always one that comes to mind is the cerebral bore from Turok 2 seeds of evil. Locking on to brain waves and then drilling into chosen cranium (enemy screaming in pain) before exploding
The Energy Sword was the only melee weapon in Halo when Halo 2 released. I prefer melee weapons. I'll go for either Energy Sword or Gravity Hammer. You aren't being a dick if you use it. Often times if you don't catch your opponent by surprise you're at the disadvantage. Although, it does depend on what they are using. Same can be said about the Splat Roller. It's mainly a melee weapon that has short range if you do try and fight at a distance. You aren't a dick for using it as it's meant for map coverage. Which makes you a different kind of teammate. Focusing more on map coverage than enemy kills.
Y’all forgot the chicken gun from The Suffering! I’ll never forgive myself for those wasted eggs 😢 Also them cute critters from Oddworld Stranger’s Wrath.
Everyone talks about the Golden gun but no one seems to mention the better version and in a way more dickish version form perfect dark the one shot kill golden revolver so 6 shots before reloading duel weilding allowed and tiger skin handles to add to the dickishness of it.
The very first Mario Kart, Super Mario Kart for the sneyez, didn't have a Blue Shell. Other issues that were ironed out by later entries? Sure. But no Blue Shell. I've only played Melee and Brawl, but according to the wiki, going for the Hammer does come with a risk: the head might fall off on rare occasions. Does the handle do damage? Apparently not. Can you simply drop the handle? No, you're stuck swinging it ineffectually for the same amount of time you would have been using it to whale on the other fighters. And you can't double jump, either way. If you get knocked off the stage, which is still entirely possible even if the head is there, better hope a single jump is enough! Ah, the Ancient Arrows, my weapon of choice for one scenario and one scenario only: The Yiga Clan Hideout. Now, maybe I should be more concerned about sucking people into a vortex because they were a bit miffed about the ingrates who shunned them after their tech helped people... but considering who they sided with, not so much. Chew-sing? Because they're being eaten? Eh?
Similar theme to the last one, there’s Sir John Phallustiff from Cyberpunk 2077 Literally a vibrating sex toy and also an extremely effective one-handed club If severe head trauma wasn’t enough to defeat your enemy, the humiliation will finish them off
Fallout 76 legacy weapons most got removed but the explosive energy weapons you could paint the area and just kill everything in seconds making so your the only one getting experience pretty much
the Cranial Bore from Turok shoulda bee on here. Being kept alive while a robotic bullet literally drills your brain away for a long, excruciating, albeit badass death? Nightmare fuel. Also, the plasma rifle with the heat seeking lense. Used to make my step son rage quit our matches with that thing... yeah, I was that kind of dick. I regret nothing.
@@rodgerbroadway5555 It basically homes in on the player in first place and explodes, stunning the first place player. The Super Horn, introduced in Mario Kart 8, is the only thing that can stop a Blue Shell.
@@rodgerbroadway5555 It is. Mario Kart 64 was the first game to introduce the Blue Shell, and you had no way of defending yourself from it besides someone else passing you and getting in first place. And even with the Super Horn’s introduction in Mario Kart 8, it can be stolen by someone using a Boo, or you could lose it by getting blasted with Lightning.
Be a jerk all you want in single player. Whatever, play how you want. If you want it easier (guilty, casual), do it. Multiplayer, however, you may be a jerk, but the weapons are still in the game, so might as well use them.
@@thomaswilson4292 That’s why games like the Splatoon series have different roles for their weapons. The Splat Charger is an Anchor role weapon, so you aren’t feeling bad for using it but you are doing your role. Same deal with the Splat Roller. You aren’t feeling bad for using it as you are using its role to help your team.
Spec Ops: The Line has an infamous scene in which you have to use White Phospherous, and then you spend the rest of the game being shamed for using white phospherous.
- EZ Gun, Metal Gear Solid 3. That gun has infinite ammo, is silent af, and it boosts your camo rating to 80%. - The Patriot, Metal Gear Solid 3. Again, infinite ammo, but who needs stealth when you can just run in, and let loose.
Most of these are developers having fun, and trying to get people having fun too, not every loss should make you angry " Karen ". Super Monaco Grand Prix on Master System, my mum would use her feet to play when I was 7 I never cried about losing, just asked how did you learn to do that ( the answer was playing while fold school uniforms )😅😅😅
Nothing compares to getting shafted by an energy sword and then teabagged
Swish-swish stab! Bow-chicka-wow-wow.
An energy sword that's also a key all the time, and when it stabs people, it unlocks their deaths.
The fact that the Perfect Dark railgun isn't on here is a travesty. There better be a user submitted follow-up to this episode!
I remember the Land Shark Gun. The most fun I've had. Turning on the infinite ammo cheat just turned the battlefield into a plane of chaos
The Perfect Dark game for N64 had a sniper rifle that let you see and shoot through walls.
The Farsight.
@@joesunday199 That's the one
Yeah that was banned in our house rules haha
What's worse? The secondary mode actively moved your reticle to the closest enemy.
Ef that smart pistol was my go to and actually takes skill to use since it doesn’t instantly snap to pilots
Getting Blue Shelled after you cross the finish line is such a good feeling....Like, you almost got me homie
Joe Hendry 👏🏾 👏🏾 convinced me on this channel years ago that the blue shell isn’t actually the worst weapon in Mario kart. It’s the lightning. Bc it’s indiscriminate in who it attacks. You could be 2nd to last and it still attacks you too.
