As of the launch of Season 5, BR starts in ranked have been replaced with Bandit EVO starts. For those who do not know, the EVO variant has a scope with slightly less zoom than the BR.
Have you tried it? What are your thoughts versus the BR starts?
I’m digging it, but only played 7 games.
I miss the BR but I’m sure I’ll adjust. Struggle with the last shot.
Chugged through my placement matches last night. I loved the original bandit, so I was really looking forward to trying the EVO.
I think the single shot makes a difference in landing the final kill head shot, you no longer have a three round burst where it is more forgiving if one shot of the burst misses, I play keyboard and mouse, and had pretty good accuracy, but ended up shooting a lot of shoulders instead of heads when it came to landing the perfect kill.
Overall, I had no issues with it, just need to get some practice, but I played with a friend who hated the WBO by the end of our placements and was going for the sidekick any time they could find one.
