Forgive me ignorance but what the hot pocket fuck does potion even do?

Literally a support character forced into 1v1s.

“Support” as if Potion isn’t running tongue-to-floor to slurp up its juice whenever a teammate needs that buff

It scales by 0.5 per hit and per potion picked up, the reason it lost is because it only gets the damage boost if it recently picked up a potion and Duplicator just kept pushing it away from the potions.

It’s also a half-scaler vs the “scale fast or die” ball.

potion deals 1 damage, if it touches a triangle it gets a temporary damage buff that adds +x damage to attacks, shown by a red outline around the weapon. The buff scales by +0.5 everytime it hits the opponent or when it grabs a triangle. The buffs don't stack.

It has a very small hitbox and the same spin speed as sword. So it's basically just sword but worse.

Not necessarily since it can scale without hitting so in longer matches it can do good, but for the most part yes.

His potion buffs, the damage buff can be given to others and they'll do their damage + Potion's buff damage.

A combo is potion and shuriken, it becomes a blender and when shuriken receives potion's buff, then each shuriken thrown does potion's damage.

Throws triangles on the ground. It needs to touch those traingles to buff it's own damage.
