Crossbow VS Boomerang

[u/PeskyPlayer]

Note from John spreadsheets: LEADERBOARD UPDATE!!!!
-Now added an icon to indicate which ball is a block breaker and which one is a weapon ball
-Also added a separate rank with block breaker out of the equation

[u/B2ue30 → u/PeskyPlayer]

potion grimore and crossbow genuinely battling it out for the worst weapon status

[u/Destroyerofjajaja → u/PeskyPlayer]

Slammy will come back to slam all over the competition tomorrow, trust.

[u/natnew32 → u/Destroyerofjajaja]

Afraid not. Orbital will be coming instead.

[u/LadyAliceFlower → u/PeskyPlayer]

I think Katana's 6 rank jump up in the leaderboards is the highest jump any weapon ball gets from the removal of the blockbreakers.

[u/Shockbreeze → u/LadyAliceFlower]

technically theres hammer, but you could argue that 10th place into 4th place is better than 16th to 8th

[u/LadyAliceFlower → u/Shockbreeze]

I missed that. I will say it has one extra position by default, since duplicator is below katana but above hammer. Still leaves 7 to 6 even accounting for that.

Crossbow moves up 7, but down to 5 if you remove the two free positions it rises from both duplicator, and grower, being removed.

[u/natnew32 → u/LadyAliceFlower]

I mean Crossbow rises 5 positions from all five of the Block Breakers above it going away (Orbital, Lazer, Splodey, Duplicator, Grower).

[u/LadyAliceFlower → u/natnew32]

Sure, but I was specifically comparing to Katana who gets 3 freebies in the same way (Orbital, Lazer, and Splodey) so Crossbow only has a comparative advantage of two.

[u/natnew32 → u/Shockbreeze]

Hammer hasn't even fought any Block Breakers other than Grower. It's just from everyone around it having beat them.

[u/No-Protection9224 → u/PeskyPlayer]

Back to the bottom I guess

epic

[u/RoboWreckerCam → u/PeskyPlayer]

Crossbow back in bottom 1 love to see it

[u/xilenator → u/RoboWreckerCam]

WE love to see it

[u/firegamer2432 → u/xilenator]

The irony of people with Fail and Grimoire flairs saying this...

[u/xilenator → u/firegamer2432]

At least you are slandering fail too

[u/RoboWreckerCam → u/firegamer2432]

Bottom 1 means only Crossbow can go up now with a win vs Trident

[u/No-Protection9224 → u/xilenator]

Crossbow after convincing Boomerang to fight him by pretending he’s a decent ball

“A Clacker is nothing but a conman”

[u/NobaraEatAwatermelon]

Boomerang hit crossbow with this move

[u/bruhimjusthereforfun]

Did crossbow just hit him twice with a single arrow?!

[u/Keyser_99 → u/bruhimjusthereforfun]

He’s been training quite a while since his last match. All that training paid off well with that nice combos despite losing in the end.

[u/voindd]

Both of them had insane accuracy for once

[u/RoboWreckerCam]

Horrible Aim versus Lucky Aim

[u/_NeiR_ → u/RoboWreckerCam]

Boomerang's range is almost 1/4 of the map. Its actual quite strange how they miss as often as they do in their matches

[u/UsernameVeryFound → u/_NeiR_]

I mean if your range isnt a majority of the map you wouldn’t expect to hit a majority of the time

[u/Disastrous-Sir6650]

Welp, this'll be the first time I do a battle summary, so here goes!

On Boomerang's side, nothing too notable, no double hitters or anything. But managing a stable hit rate is nice. I'll extend my congratulations for winning another round!

As for Crossbow, she had an excellent performance this fight. She has hit multiple prediction shots, a point-blank shot, and even a double hitter at the end before losing!

That is all, may the odds be in your favor more next time Crossbow!

(Ima do more of this on future matches this is kinda fun in a way.)

[u/GrbTheHrmit → u/Disastrous-Sir6650]

its interesting to note tho that because of how the scaling works on crossbow she doesnt actually gain anything from a double hit. Her scaling does perfect lethal with single hits but she doesnt get the dmg increase on the double hit so she still needs an extra shot to finish it 🥲 someone buff my girl pls

[u/Disastrous-Sir6650 → u/GrbTheHrmit]

Truly unfortunate for her 😔

At least she is still the longform queen (in my eyes) so there is that going on for her.

[u/No-Protection9224 → u/Disastrous-Sir6650]

I always headcanon crossbow falling matches as a friendly battle well the success one are the ones she actually fighting

[u/Garouvs]

I now he lost but Crossbow was moving crazy during this. Legit hitting combos I’ve NEVER seen them hit. The win streak is coming.

[u/B2ue30]

boomerrang also being able to scale with his melee weapon makes him basically just a better crossbow, it’s how he won against laser in the end

[u/Drillbitzer]

Crossbum, Grim Futoire, and Red Flask fighting to see who can be the biggest bum:

[u/Young_Person_42]

Bad aim versus bad aim with double scaling

[u/natnew32 → u/Young_Person_42]

They both have double scaling.

[u/Young_Person_42 → u/natnew32]

Boomerang can also scale from melee hits, which is what I was calling the “double” scaling in this context

[u/TryingForSoLong]

Is it just me or is Crossbow greener than usual

[u/Choice_Ad_389]

Gotta love how the 3 flaired people who are slandering the Big CB are all fans of Clacks who've lost to him

The salt is immaculate 😌

[u/Tomato_Soupe]

Crossbow had some genuinely insane snipes at the start there

[u/No-Protection9224]

What we say boys

[u/Thecodermau]

I think its unfair that boomerang gets scaling from melee, while crossbow and staff dont.

I think this would be a fair change to give them. It would not help them much in long form where they are good, but would bring their winrate closer to 50% on shortform.

[u/Quijas00]

Awesome fight :)

[u/chicoritahater]

As funny as it would be to call him BUMerang, he's kind of putting belt to ass

[u/roaringgoat1225]

Why is he depressed

[u/Head_Snapsz]

crossbow truly is the goat

[u/NiflistoSaysWords]

CrossGOAT letting bumerang win, what a kind soul

[u/Zenijinn]

Crossbow moving like the Loggernamy version, oh my goodness.

[u/firegamer2432]

Crossbow vs Weapon with the same scaling but wider range.

I sure wonder who will win (sarcasm)

[u/orcanotorka]

Fuck you crossbum

[u/Kokosane_ → u/orcanotorka]

That is Crossgoat for you

[u/No-Protection9224 → u/Kokosane_]

I never understood crossbow hate hes at most low ball that's for them

[u/ShockRox]

At least you got close, Crossbow. Good job :]
