i just think use-case weapons are interesting, and i also think they should be unbanned to help with gameplay diversity (namely the base jumper, and imo the bonk as well)
i think 6s is very very stale in respects to meta and map-pool, and adding anything to make the game new/fun/learnable is good for the health of 6s
Tob some funnies were done like skybox demoman rollout, probably the "best" use case. It was unbanned and nobody used it after. Been multiple seasons now
i want to preface that im not saying this to throw shade to EU, i just think our regions have operated differently in terms of meta development
i feel like the fact that the best use-case you could provide for the base jumper being the "demo skybox mid" shows that the item probably just hasnt been touched at all in EU
despite its appearance as a meme unlock i think the base jumper could be really useful for pressuring on open points, because of the ability to get incredibly spam angles by being in the skybox or just by drawing eyes. and its also just really fun to use
i think, not even because of its abilities but simply because its unbanned, the base jumper will see ample playtime this season
at one point both the loch and spoon (beggars too) were meme weapons, so time will tell
Tob They're not even running battalion's backup on last stalemates afaik. If they go parachute before learning that, they're throwing
lol
