      Also it is easier to get more balls when you snap with an electro rather then a mech.BTW i do like mechs alot.

        Volume has proven itself over accuracy.

        Think about it this why, when the 68 Automag was the fastest marker out, would you still be shooting a pump? It sounds like you would. I love my mechs to death, but I can hit more stuff in a shorter amount of time with a electro.

            ugh, It's called money.
            Besides, it is a hell of a lot easier to hit someone shooting 20BPS with a trix or a timmy than 13 with a huge m98.

              Soopa, how many random, completely un-thought-out posts are you going to make? You need to get a firm grip on reality here; in tournament paintball today, high ROF is important, and fast electros are needed to win.

                Players want to be successful, and if they're offered spots on better teams, they'd be stupid to pass it up.

                And yes, you do need a gazillion shots a second. First, it's a lot easier for someone on the other end of the field to run through 3 shots a second than it is 18. And that's not even considering bounces and cheaters wiping. Secondly, if you can rain on the other team's bunkers, that means your players can move around on the field, often without being seen. Thirdly, I don't care how good of a shot you are, it's easier to hit someone with 15 balls than it is with 1. What if their head jerks in first? What if they pull their gun back first? You don't know what part of them is still going to be sticking out by the time your balls get to them... more firepower helps, and that's not debateable. If it weren't a big deal, you'd see good teams shooting mech markers... but you don't.

                    Yea tippmann effect use to be really good. Now the old effect players left and the new ones are the previous team rythm. They're a bunch of little jerk kids who play at my local field. I hate all of them but this one kid. He's ok, but the rest are snobs.

                    Did anyone mention Total Grief? Didn't they play in a couple pro tournies? They use pump illusions.

                        No, and you'll never see a pro team using mech guns in this arms race of PB.

                          honestly, cheating in the tourney scene has gotten to the point where i no longer agree with this statement, i dont think i had anyone come out right away when I 1 balled them last tourney, if i helped em along with 10 or so, then they would get out.

                            It would be great to see the leagues put a restriction on Electros and make the players rely on accuracy. Not Sprayin' and Prayin'. I'm not saying Electros are not fun though. Yeah it's cool to blast 30 bps, but there really isn't a point. Maybe just to impress people.

                              LOL if you go to any real paintball turny and bring a mech gun to play with.... its like bringing a knife to a gun fight...

                              you will never ever see any serius terny player useing a mech. (unless its the rules to play in that truny wich will never happen.)

                                In a real life turny situation (AM and up) you will have at least 5,000 rounds being throw in your direction in about 2 mins. so within that 2mins of a 5 min game you have to be able to pop out and shoot back in litterly split seconds... the more paint you get out the better your chances of a hit as well as a break.
