I'm also in the camp of "we should support this, at least to just keep more competition in the game" which is ultimately what we all want. Say what you want about Hasbro, at least they did it (finally) and that alone is a good thing.
True! Plus they gave us a ton of the things we were asking for. Talon compatibility. The standard size half length darts. 150+ fps performance. No one thought any of that would happen yet here we are.
Another great in-depth review! Good point on supporting the Stryfe X if you want to see more pro blasters from Hasbruh. I'm certainly curious to see what they do next.
with hasbro modernizing their flywheel blasters to have high FPS offerings, I'd love to see a lineup of high FPS springers with SCAR or BCAR options either included or sold separately at a reasonable price. Springers are capable of incredible accuracy over longer distances with attachments like those which is why they've always been my preference over flywheelers.
I agree! We should totally support this blaster and see what they do next. The possibilities are extremely exciting. Great perspective! I personally would love to see some first person gameplay with it, if you decide to post that kind of content here, of course.
Thanks! And there is some first person gameplay at the end of the video. Not sure if you meant like that or if you meant like a dedicated video of gameplay
yo forgettin dem Worker Phoenixes (1,2)as alternatives, one is consistently cheaper, does not eat darts like stock MK3, two is much much much better form factor, smart function availability and both of them are made of better materials, both are pretty small if you don´t use any attachments, can house 2300mAh batteries and are pretty much infallible and indestructible, do not need any additional modding for optimal performance unlike MK3
I didn’t forget. I just genuinely don’t think it’s comparable… Worker is not a “big box store available brand” like I mentioned. That blaster has no semi automatic function. Which all but eliminates it as a “pro” blaster. It also takes a proprietary mag exclusively and is $180 for the 2.0. And while all the ones I compared hit 150fps on a single stage flywheel set up, the Phoenix 2.0 is a TRIPLE stage flywheeler that hits the same performance…. Is it a great blaster? Absolutely. But it’s not in the same category as these Semi automatic, single stage , “pro” blasters. Also to get that smart feature you mentioned the blaster jumps up in price to $260
Hasbro does not undercut the market, they upmarket everything or just does not do anything. We need a half dart drum mag. Stryfe X is just to expensive for what it offers.
I can appreciate that perspective. There is already a half dart drum mag though. It’s just not made by hasbro. It’s called the “mythical drum mag” and it’s made by Ezekiel.
Thanks for the video. Just curious as to your opinion or findings on which foam dart blaster (nerf, ZURU, etc.) is the best overall in terms of durability, most darts (magazine/ring capacity) loaded from start to finish, and most dependable!?! Please share ASAP. Thank you in advance.
That is a very complex question. If you’re using half darts like the ones in this video… Are you looking for a flywheeler or springer and what is your budget? In terms of Highest capacity mags for half darts is tachi mag 29 rounds. Or mythical drum mag at like 50 rounds But if durability is your concern then a Koda mag is 23 rounds and more durable than any other mag.
@@kingofgames234 Thank you. I’m wondering about both a flywheeler and the standard versions. Also, which one in the full dart (like the Zuru X-Shot Skins Dread Blaster) and the half darts as in the Styfe X. Durability is of concern, but we’re not brutal on them, so the focus may be more on the cost factor (budget $50 and under). Thank you for your time and thoughts. 😎👍🏼
@@flhandster4395 under $50 for a flywheel I’d have to recommend the dartzone Pro MK3. Shoots half and full length darts. Hits 150fps. I have a full review of it in my early videos.
I really want to buy one of these blasters but at the moment in the UK there’s only a small supply of them and they’re around $270 each. It can’t be justified
@@user-kx9eg1jt8g I think that depends on if it’s indoor or outdoor. And what fps. Flywheel or springer. If it’s indoors I’d run something like this: amzn.to/4794Ilx If it’s outdoors I’d recommend something that gets much brighter. Personally I rock a Romeo5 but that’s a lot more expensive than the $20 one I linked above.
