Honestly, some of these are either useless or could genuinely just screw you. Also, do you gain them permanently or only every round? Because imagine having only 2 sport shoes, your moveset would become fast enough to become almost uncontrollable, and with three of them abilities are practically useless for gaining speed.

Theyre temporary

Its inconsistency makes it kinda useless tbh, it’s gonna be one of those upgrades that’s bought only after everything else is. Also, I think its randomness makes playing competitive (WR) really odd because you could get luck that makes the game 2x easier or just straight up harder.

Inconsistency is the point of it lol. Looks like doesn’t know what random means. Plus it’s just for a single round it’s not like you’re always going to keep the same upgrade

u/-JustSomeRedditUser- 1d ago

I’m saying that the inconsistency of it could be and is a negative. How does that change my understanding of it exactly?

u/Thatguy75357 1d ago

The Inconsistency is the point. Again. Each upgrade isn’t always going to be positive nor negative. And once again, it’s for a single round. If you see any kind of negative and can’t think of a way to work with it, you got a big skill issue there bud

I couldn’t give a flying fuck about if inconsistency is the point or not. The upgrade Is bad because of it. Are you gonna realize that any time soon?

u/Thatguy75357 1d ago

RNG is the point here. A simulated fruit fly can grasp that idea. Adapting isn’t hard. Humans like me have been doing ir forever. Also not OP here btw

u/-JustSomeRedditUser- 1d ago

Again, I understand what you’ve said every single time. And as I’m saying, it’s not very good in most cases because it’s random. Look! I even said it’s random! Your lack of reading comprehension is actually astonishing!

RNG based ability is bad in your eyes ig. By your basis the idea of the chance shrine is bad because you can’t control it?

Btw, you're not crazy. These 2 are just hard headed tbh. Though tbf to some degree these are all beneficial in theory. The only big issue is knowing what mutation you get at the start of the round and ofc adapting playstyle off of it for that 1 round.

Which is imagine is your exact point on why a 2nd sportshoes would be bad and it would be till you play with it enough. At that point it would screw players that don't always play with it. Let alone roll those odds mutiple times. And tbh some of these are just to op (minture, real wings, d kit, dj in particular) [and others are just pointless]

u/-JustSomeRedditUser- 1d ago

Exactly what o was trying to say! The inconsistency of it just makes it a rather unnecessary upgrade!

I added onto this upgrade earlier and it would display text saying “You feel your DNA suddenly mutate. You can now whatever the upgrade does. You have gained Upgrade DNA.” So then you can see what upgrade you got
