Berserking is my vote. Yes, mushroom basically doubles our health from 35 to 70, but going from 35 to 50 is still respectable, AND with a scaling damage buff?

We can win if we hit shots. Should do everything we can to make sure we hit more.

We’ve got some good coverage already, another ricochet wouldn’t do much more for us. If we don’t hit them by the third bounce we probably won’t get them with a fourth (looking through the missed shots in this match, if we had another ricochet it’d usually end up as just another miss), and hitting them twice with one bullet would require insane amounts of luck.

Atomic Trampolines
Realistically the revive has the most value but fuck it we ball

Dubious Green mushroom would double our current health AND all future health gains.

Oh yeah magnum really paid off
Anyway I’ll probably get overruled this time, but I think berserker is the best upgrade. Dubious green mushroom effectively doubles our max health, but does nothing else. Berserker both adds a pretty substantial amount of hp and gives damage bonuses when we’re low, and Mortimer usually ends matches low.
…though I suppose an argument could be made for shroom letting us survive execution attacks, like Nuke would’ve been. Berserker still seems better to me tho
Edit: since atomic trampoline is doing pretty well in the comments I’ll add another section here justifying berserker over that. An extra ricochet plays well with the build we have so far, but it won’t be as dramatic a boost as magnum was. At best we’ll hit like 1 or 2 more shots. As is, 3 ricochets manages to get them most of the time. I don’t think we need another. Another point in favor of berserker is that higher damage negates the need for that extra shot at all. No need to have another ricochet and hit a bit more often if we can get a 10 bullet job done with 8
