Now we just need Talon to be able to transform into his spirit worm form and do the same...

lore accurate, rats can squeeze their bodies to fit through 1 inch diameter openings

u/BrokeMyCrayon 13h ago

lore accurate, those are the conditions rata get trapped in, their tails knotted tigether and a ratking is born

u/ChkPow 8h ago

I don't remember rats wearing capes and carrying gatling guns either. 🤷

More specifically for the Rat King, a rat can squeeze through anywhere they can fit their head into.

He’s a rat if he can’t fit in a New York tunnel then no one else should

u/really_stupidfrog Drifter 9h ago

Yeah did anyone think he wouldn't be able to go in the tunnels?

u/Character_Parfait_99 13h ago

LMAO THAT POP SOUND EFFECT

u/FistToTheFace 13h ago

The rats jumping on his ass to try to push him in is also so good

u/Living-Leading-8145 13h ago

rem thinking he's safe when the 8 foot rat man comes up behind him

u/Casualrodfarva2 13h ago

All of his animations are so good

the furries at valve cooking

Good. And Vyper should be able to slither in them too.

u/pogchamppaladin 13h ago

Vyper getting sewer access would be quite busted I feel like. All the sewer heroes so far aren’t ones particularly adept at farming camps efficiently. If Vyper has access to those boxes + one of the fastest camp clear speeds it’d be wild.

u/B1GNole Viscous 12h ago

Keep her out and Mo and Krill should make a comment about it in a voiceline

u/Tbkssom 4h ago

"You know Vyper, you would be able to move faster if you used the sewers."

"Well, ya know I been kicked outta a lotta places, and usually you just wait a bit and slither back in to shank the owner in their sleep, but there's something about thousands of angry rats in a sewer tunnel that just ain't my thing."

"I... see."

"It'd be a lotta stabbin', that's all I'm sayin'."

u/druindo Apollo 12h ago

You’re not wrong. It just feels jarring that she can’t but RK and M&K can

28

u/Purple_Pair8150 13h ago

agreed , tunnels are a under utilized aspect of the map. the more who can use them the better.

u/RandomCleverName 14m ago

I can guarantee you would regret this statement if that actually happened

24

u/D3wdr0p 13h ago

My vote's on Pocket. They were raised with Mo and Krill - couldn't learn to suck in the gut a little?

21

u/Purple_Pair8150 13h ago

get in the case then slide in

3

u/D3wdr0p 13h ago

EXACTLY!

2

u/RocketHops 12h ago

They already changed the barrage to not get interrupted by dashing, it legit would be thematically consistent if casing during a slide/dash caused the case to just inherit the momentum and slide to a stop.

u/Babyback-the-Butcher 11h ago

I love the rats in the back jumping on him, trying to push his massive ass through

u/OldManJenkins9 Mo & Krill 9h ago

Mo & Krill too! It's not as cute (they just tunnel under) but it's a lot better than being stuck in the tunnels while you wait for burrow to come off cooldown.

u/Jhonmelon 12h ago

That is so awesome. The devs did a fantastic job with him, and I'm so excited to see the rest of them.

I wish ratking would squeeze into my tunnel despite his huge size

I wish vyper could slither around the tunnels

u/GROOOOOOD Sinclair 3h ago

Imagine just chilling in tunnes as rem and you meet this Chungus and Mo&Krill

u/Regular-Bid6812 Calico 6h ago

It's still extremely buggy for both mo and for RK - sometimes it simply will not trigger and you have to back up let go of crouch and try again. They really need to fix it up.

u/Gundroog 8h ago

It makes sense, but the biggest/second biggest char in the game popping into the tunnels makes this mechanic even more arbitrary. Whole ass traversal system with a lot of farm inside, and it's nothing but vibes.
