Post here your nominations for the Worst Super Soaker of All Time, along with reasons why. I've listed a few here, but others might have other ideas. After the nominations have died down, a poll will be added, and once that has died down, this will be moved to the New Members & FAQ forum.
  • XP BackFire - back nozzle more powerful, can be suicidal!
  • XP 85 Triple Shot - weak and nozzles have little use on battlefield
  • SC Triple Charge - difficulties with angled firing

XP-Backfire. Bad concept, bad production.
XP-85 could at least have some usefulness if all three are angled forward.

CPS 1-3-5: Can be both bad or good, but I look at it as a bad soaker overall, seeing as you are forced to mod it to get any good use out of it (we are, after all, referring to the stock soaker).

I think it is the Backfire also that is worst, However it is usfell to fully pump spin in circles and fire but otherwise it stinks.

Small-ish XP's: Such as the XP 40, have tiny water tanks, are cheaply made, and have nozzles the size of a pin's head.

EDIT-specifically the XP 40, XP 240, XP 20, XP 65, and most of the early XP's.

Yeah but the early xp's didn't have big nozzles to start with and hey, some of those are just meant as sidearms, not main weapons.

But they are lame weapons in combat. I know, I've used some of them, and they straight-up suck.

Well, the activity in this thread seems to have died down, so now it's time to add the poll. ;)

EDIT: 750 posts - Elite Commander. B)

I voted XP Backfire. Although EES and 2004 guns aren't great either.

I'd have to try out all of those guns to know, and I have not. Null vote.

They all equally suck, so I had a null vote

Cloud, please check with me before editing a poll. It's getting tiresome. <_<

I don't understand why the 1-3-5 has the most votes-it beats everything else on that list! Sure it sucks, but its still CPS, and still better than EES, Xp Backfire, 2004, etc.
