This is a pretty average shot for good BnG players though.
The difference is that this was made in 1 second, after walking a few pixels to the right.
Done.
In the context of making an attack during THAT turn, the LG double bank is the ONLY shot that would work. This makes is easier because there were no distractions, and you would be planning it in advance.
For the record, 3s would work as well, though that's much more difficult coming in from the other side, to get over the land protecting that worm. Though it is possible.
What makes his shot easy to skilled BnG players is a few pixels more or less power and it would still hit. With the 3s it needs to be precise.
I feel like the bad guy here though I'm just being honest, it's not so impressive when it's your only option. If he misses, big deal, he can't be hit back anyway so what's the harm in trying?
Shots like that are actually very common in Hysteria because Hysteria itself is full of panic and even unskilled players can pull off great shots at least once or twice in their life lol.
Don't get me wrong, it's a nice shot and I wouldn't call KinslayeR a stranger to BnG, though if you are looking for a gif to showcase the power of grenade there are more impressive examples to choose from, from dozens of players. As someone who is extremely passionate about BnG, to the point where my Steam name is "Nade" with an image of a worm throwing a grenade... I've got 5 tattoos planned and 1 of them is related to BnG, It's a bit of a disappointment... For Grenade in general. It's fine for Hysteria though I guess.
You've got so many shots to choose from the b2b video alone!
Even my avatar shows a further extent of what's capable with a grenade!
Though to be fair, I'm an absolutely geek/nerd when it comes to Artillery schemes... I can't expect others to share that same level of intense excitement
