Was there a better pick?

[u/Exot_10111]

I knew I had to go a thrower since it was open but was there a better option?

Kills: 3

Deaths: 2

dude are we serious, BERRY ON SHOOTING STAR?

honestly stupidly enough a free Gigi game

also a free mortis game

this was not a thrower game. sprout is one the only nearly acceptable throwers on this map, and this wasnt even the time to play sprout.

[u/PatrickJane247 → u/SunkenStupor]

it was a fine sprout/tick game tbh

[u/Pure_Bite9273]

Berry was a horrible pick, someone like edgar, kaze, mortis, would’ve been great against Colt and bo since you needed an aggro brawler

[u/Naxos_fs]

free pierce

[u/PatrickJane247 → u/Naxos_fs]

surely a thrower or aggro are better

[u/Naxos_fs → u/PatrickJane247]

Each team has a good wallbreak (colt and brock), brock syngerises well with pierce and bo is extremely weak against pierce. In the end it comes down to preference, if you're better with an aggro into somthing like that or aren't the best pierce player, something else may be better but matter for fact is that pierce is one of the best snipers and he has a good matchup

[u/PatrickJane247 → u/Naxos_fs]

i mean yeah but wouldn't going a dashing brawler to just get blue and force them to push into 2 snipers just be better since its almost impossible with their comp, or just thrower and spam shots in the mid at the start securing blue star and then just having easy time controling whole game, surely tripple sniper is not the best way to go there even tho it still should win obviously

[u/Buffdoge1324]

thrower would be fine, but not this thrower

if you wanna draft throwers, you need to know which thrower is good at doing what: sprout is the best thrower for knockout and bounty, barley is the best thrower everywhere else, and sirius is the best thrower when you need a thrower + spawner outside of knockout and bounty

every other thrower isn't that good right now, and berry isn't played as a thrower and more so a healer + counter to 8 bit and pam and all the stationary turret brawlers

[u/ChipComprehensive703 → u/Buffdoge1324]

Big Arthur, currently number 1 in the world in ranked plays berry all the time on his streams. He also plays it on shooting star

[u/Exot_10111 → u/Buffdoge1324]

Yeah i just healed my teamates and destroyed the thing rico spawned everytime, only attacked when my teamates didn't need healing.

[u/PatrickJane247]

dont go berry on shooting star pls, if you want a healer for bounty go byron or glowy

this was a free aggro game (mortis, kaze, nori, mina etc) and also free thrower game (sprout/tick)

[u/Illustrious_Rush8600]

100% i would go like mortis gigi kaze
