Sweet Tooth Special

I'm getting comments on Youtube saying his special looks like it got nerfed. Do you consider it nerfed or buff? He shoots less missiles but the damage is still big when all missiles hit isn't it? I mean the offline version shoots a lot of missiles but it takes longer to get that extra damage when 20 missiles hit. Also the special can be dodged so a lot of missiles means nothing if their not hitting anyone.

The TMBO ST special is better than the one from TMB. Yea, less missiles, but they do more damage. The ST special is fire missile based and because of that, it is easy to dodge. The best way to use the ST special is to fire it on someone that is in mid air or use a gas can/sat to knock the vehicle up. Sometimes you only need one missile from the special to land, because it will knock the vehicle up and the rest of the missiles will land, however, this only happens maybe 50% of the time.

Anyway, with all of that being said... I personally think ST is bottom tier, prob 3rd worst vehicle in the game.

Buffed. But to a degree other cars got buffed? No. But buffed yes.

Exactly what Dark said: hes actually better than TMB version, and if they stuck with TMB version he would be even worse and even easier to dodge. Damage for both versions is identical in the end but ST in TMB fires twice as many missiles. So if they kept that it would be even worse.

Hes better at firing two specials in a row, or getting someone when they are turning into your view and don't expect it. As well hes probably a bit better in team games than 1vs1 where he can assist and overwhelm an already engaged enemy. And hes better against big dogs who struggle more to dodge. Setting up freeze can be key as DF also said.

ST advantages? Hes good at dodging missiles himself, and hes got good armour.

This clears things up. I wanted to make sure because people think less missiles = nerfed. Nobody in TMBO is going to stand there and take all 20 missiles and the damage output on that is slower.

Bingo. 20 missiles would also make you an easier target, and taking longer to deal 50 points of damage? Not worth it. The time it takes to dish out 10 missiles doing 50 is ideal and actually syncs up well with a double freeze for 100 damage if timed correctly.
