I refreshed the page in anticipation,
My essay a victim of procrastanation,
As i saw the jar of pee floating by,
My mouth blew forth a relunctant sigh,
For what hath been a great april fools,
Turned out to be an unlock, one of Valve's tools.
But wait, i thought, look at the stats!
It might not be as bad as those bats (sandman.....obviously)
35% more dmg to splashed foes,
makes it kinda easy to kill close foes.
But a snipers job is to be far away
but a good sniper just won't stay away!
So mabye this weapon aint so bad
(as long as victims aren't too mad) (well, i don't think anything can be as annoying as stun)
Sniper who camp will be yelled at more
for being no more useful than a dead rat on the floor
For putting out fires and assisting kills
is better than sniping from waayyyyyy over the hills
The only thing i hate about this new jar of pee
Is that it'll counter sniper vs me (spy
).
See, spies are to snipers as pyros to spies,
Getting killed by one is as common as house flies.
A significant advantage those classes should own
Over the ones with low defenses against them they will pwn.
So when a sniper can render a spies defense gone
I think that this weapon has a huge con.
In paragraph form:
Look, to use jarate, a sniper will have to be close (hopefully). A close sniper means that said sniper cannot be camping. Putting out fires makes a sniper more useful, and stops those annoying 100% crits from machete (i think that's what it replaces).
Also, making spies unable to cloak is HORRIBLE. Seriously horrible. A spy against a sniper should be a HARD match for the sniper, relying on teamates who are beter equiped to spam for spies to deal with them.
We have to wait and see, but i think jarate should just provide no or little help for spies, or make the deactivating cloak dependent on how far away the jar hit.
