The Goo Gun is a Heavy class specialization that allows its user to freely place goo by firing blobs of goo that solidify on impact.

Effects

The Goo Gun can be used to create blobs of goo. The goo will stick to the first surface it hits, which can be another piece of goo.

The goo can be damaged by opponents and teammates to destroy it. The created goo is also highly flammable. A nearby fire will quickly spread to all of the goo and destroy it after a few seconds.

If a goo piece is fired at a contestant, they will be momentarily trapped. The goo will destroy itself after trapping a contestant for a second.

Usage

The Goo Gun can be selected as the specialization gadget of any Heavy build loadout.

The gadget can be held like a weapon. The trigger can be pulled to fire one goo blob that solidifies on impact with a surface or contestant. The trigger must be released before firing again.

The secondary trigger can be used to zoom in slightly, though this slows down the user and has no benefits. Its accuracy also remains stable while moving.

The weapon automatically reloads when its magazine is empty, or the user can do a tactical reload before this point. The user has unlimited spare ammunition.

Strategy

Strengths

  • The Goo Gun can block off potential all the entry points of an area, such as windows.

Weaknesses

  • Fire can get rid of constructions made by the Goo Gun.

Tactics

  • The Goo Gun is an integral part of making a flying machine, by attaching a goo construction to a detached Barricade and throwing an Anti-Gravity Cube to move the Barricade up, and by extension, the goo construction that is holding the Anti-Gravity Cube and the user.
