Having finally gotten my hands on one of these, I can say that the curve gimmick is a hell of a lot better than I thought it was going to be, but not in the way you might think. Rather than using this to shoot around corners without hitting walls, I find that this blaster shines best with rebounds and ricochets, since you can adjust the hop up with the muzzle, you can rotate the tab to face the wall you want to bounce your shot off of, giving it much more speed on the rebound than regular rival. This thing has been amazing for CQB and preforms above average in regular wars in my recent experience with it. Just wish the stock was longer

I would LOVE if someone made a 3-D kit to make it look like that EDIT: also this gimmick works way better than I expected and it’s actually useful because not all existing rival blasters can be tilted sideways to curve shots (specifically the nemesis and the Perses because their hoppers are gravity assisted)

I don’t care that much so I will not bring it back for that but note that piece can break before you get it.

Audio balance is a bit messed up on this one; the music is (I think) fine, but your own audio is heavily skewed to the left channel. My right ear feels left out. That is a good thought on the downwards curve, though. Being able to rain shots down from a steep angle on people trying to hide behind a wall or other obstacle might be a real 'gotcha' feature.

Great video, you are 100% right about the downward curving shot being this blasters secret weapon. The admin. at the gym we play at has a rival nemesis that for some reason curves down and he knows how to use it. It took us a while to figure out how we were getting hit, from where , and by who. I speak from experience when I say this feature can be pretty crazy when used correctly. The gym owner even has a video that features it in use on his KZitem channel (ALDOSS). Can't wait to get back to playing, hopefully soon. Keep up the good work.

I think more people need to yell at Hasbro to stop cost cutting on stuff like the catch just because they are salty the community mods their blasters. When you make it so people can't replace broken parts because you got something as stupid as a plastic catch on a blaster that is otherwise good..we gonna have a problem here. I see the mentality behind this and it's "We don't like they mod our blasters and we want them to spend more money buying a blaster again when a part inside breaks"...the PROBLEM with that is people won't buy a second blaster if out the box they have issues with a part that constantly breaks, and will instead tell everyone NOT to buy the product in the first place...see every review about the 2.0 line's Roughcut that Walcom himself reviewed and it broke..in seconds..and he had to buy a second one to try and get ranges and it broke as well, Coop had the same problem as Walcom and the whole "Glue and clips" situation with the 2.0 line REALLY came back to bite Hasbro in the ass.

@sydneywhite1893

ok So - unless hasbro fixed it the reason for the lower FPS is probably the exact same as the finisher - when the blaster has been primed and is in the ready to fire position there’s a bit of play in the cylinder that slides forward to seat the rival round. if the priming bolt is not held as far forward as possible, the cylinder can move out of position and the seal will be somewhat broken, leading to a loss of power. This can happen from just moving the blaster around so it’s quite common. It can be fixed though! The lock that holds the bolt forward after it’s been primed just needs a little extra material on the surface that engages the bolt. Doing so will allow the lock to hold the bolt forward as far as it can go, keeping the cylinder in position, so the seal will be drastically improved. A layer of Teflon tape underneath the o-ring will also help, but not to the same degree.
