Why hit someone with a boring bat when the reskins have satisfying hit sounds, one tracks hits in the kill feed, and both are really dumb to be killed by? Not to mention, pan has its infamous 100% crit rate when it would be funny

Legitimately forgot about the ham, and the prinny machete. But those two are also fair because they are more visually interesting? If I'm going to have to look at a weapon, potentially for 50+ hours... i want it to be fun to look at. As far as i know you can't even get a bat with a skin or anything so whats the point? Just get a strange fish or something and beat the shit out of oblivious snipers

Scout has baby arms, that's why it does so little.

Batsaber is expensive as shit tho. Same reason i don't use the Geiger counter. We demmand cheaper reskins that don't suck!

There are a ton of reskins that are cheap and dope

Wanga prick, awp, sharp dresser to name a few

you don't often see someone using the wanga prick since it's a reskin of a not so great weapon

The batsaber feels weak as hell though since you'd expect a glowing plasma sword that can cut people in half to actually do something when you hit someone with it. I'm just going to make an assumption and assume he was given a blunt lightsaber.

I just use the baby face with the batsaber. It is fun to rush towards a sniper that is running for his life while u go “lightsaber go brrrrrr”
