Crit-a-cola + Back scatter

[Zirkel]

Why....WHY?! I've seen this combinatino WAY too often guys, why would you use these 2 weapons together?!? It basically downgrades scout, now you can do mini crits( which you could already do) and are slightly faster, but at the cost of more damage taken and a way less acurrate gun with less clip size than stock, WHY?!? Its so.......counterproductive.

Whoa Whoa. Crit-a-Cola with Back Scatter, ok yeah that's stupid... The Back Scatter itself, however, is freakin' awesome... Why don't you exist in strange yet my love?

People don't realize that mini-crits don't stack. They think, "more damage + more damage = ... more damage!", when it's not actually true in some cases.

Well, the Back Scatter only mini-crits when you shoot the enemy from behind, Crit-a-Cola gives you mini-crits when you use it, so you can use the Cola for frontal and side attacks and the Scatter's normal mini-crit trait from behind. This way it almost turns into a Soda Popper with the firing speed and clip size of the Scattergun. And the speed boost can be helpful. That's just my take on it.

Oh i'm not arguing that back scatter is a bad weapon, to be honest its pretty decent, just not my cup of tea. My question is why would you want to use crit-a-cola with it, i mean the only reason you would want to use this weap is because it has the mini-crits on back, so why would you want to use crit-a-cola and take away its only good attribute? I mean yeah you could get crits from all sides and move faster, but you might as well use scattergun or any other primary and get the exact same result and with no penalties compated to the Back Scatter. The combiniation just doesn't seem correct at all.

The back scatter sucks... but it's fun to use. :) That's what's important.

Soda popper doesn't get any crits, so you wouldn't get the jumps that Soda Popper gets, and you might have the firing speed of scattergun, you won't get the clip size as it has 4 rather than 6, and it is less accurate as well. Altho the speed boost would indeed be helpful, but just any other secondary would seem more efficient than merely getting a speed boost as well as something you can already get with the gun if you flank people.

[Spoke]

Front-scatter for 8 seconds.

If they use Crit-a-Cola, every bad combo makes sence.
For these ones who didn't get it: using Crit-a-Cola instantly turns you into a noob. And other interpretation is right as well.

Why....WHY?! Shortstop +Crit a Cola I've seen this combination LITTLE too often guys, why wouldnt you use these 2 weapons together?!? It basically upgrades scout, now you can do mini crits from long range and are slightly faster, but at the cost of more damage which could be avoided if you use this combo in mid to long range WHY?!? Its so.......productive.

If you're using back scatter at mid to long range then you don't deserve to be on this planet.
