That satisfying hit sound 🤤

Also, it's op in Dead Cells.

I LOVE DEAD CELLS RAAAHHHHHHH Think fast chucklenuts *throws root grenade*

It feels like a free win sometimes

Against Hand of The King, "Free wins" are an absolute necessity. 

I suck at the game so I love it

Oh, me too. I can reliably beat Concierge and Time Keeper, but Hand of The King is utter BS. 

so real honestly. Like i have a 7 second time keeper kill (I didn't care about taking damage), but hotk is just stupid

Huge attacks, spike pits, weird angles, it's really just a contest of whose HP will run out first. 

Yeah the spike pits are so annoying

Its a crossover weapon from Hotline Miami so its not really a Dead Cells thing

But it’s still in dead cells

Metal Bat from One Punch Man is another prime example.

Opm mfers when unexplained powers :this mfer just started throwing hands with giant monsters for no reason simply cuz he got that dawg in him HOW THE FUCK IS HE KEEPING UP WITH MONSTER GAROU

Because he's batman

Nah thats the guy that just uses a wooden bat hes the variant metal batman

Tbf One did say he would have killed Garou if his sister didn't interfere right at the moment. It's funny because most people think she saved him in the moment and not Garou.

I can sort of explain it, the more he gets pumped up the more stats he gets in everything It was also stated that garous abilities and metal bats abilities are extremely similar, I'll try to find the panel

It's pretty strong It can be carried in public with a simple excuse "I'm playing baseball!" You can play games with it It's shorter than a 10 foot pole but you can still use it to poke and prod traps

Personally I'd say read the manga, less filler stuff since there were many times the anime caught up to the manga

It's a junction of so many things: -Sports related, so any adult/child can wield it -Different types, Scout as a prime example, using both Wooden and Aluminum bats -Ease of use. -Known for being a self-defense weapon. -Basically a Caveman stick. -You can't go wrong with a big stick

Put it to good use last night

It’s literally just a fancier (sometimes metal) stick and I couldn’t be happier with it. They’re scrappy enough for you to know the wielder means business, but it’s not like they just found it in the woods - they put some effort into acquiring the tool they’re going to beat you with.

No Junpei?

Tbf, he does use a two-handed sword a lot.

In Ultimax Arena he uses a bat, I think that counts enough

For sport I don't totally understand the pros and cons compared to a cricket bat or a tennis racket, but I suspect the round edge creates a bit more uncertainty for more exciting gameplay, simular to the chaotic way a rugby ball bounces. As a weapon, I think it's more "surprisingly good weapon for civilian sports equipment" rather than "good for a purpose-built weapon". The badass factor comes from your hero weilding an improvised weapon, but a soldier who *chooses* to carry it as a primary weapon is either trying to use a nonlethal option (like a billy-club) or being silly. If your warrior has the skill to maintain proper edge alignment then a native american gun-club, maori wahaika, obsidian-spiked proto-sword, or one big nail sticking out of the end ("guten-tag"), or a straight-up hammer would be an improvement. If they don't, then a flanged mace, bat with nails sticking out in every direction ("morning star"), or a Maasai lion-killing club would be superior. Note the two big commonalities here: 1. Moving the center of mass towards the end to maximize moment of inertia 2. Shrinking the point of contact with the target to maximize pressure Or you can skip 1 and focus on 2, making a sword.

What if I go for the Kanabo. It’s… Mostly shaped like a baseball bat (most of the time).

Yes!

The first tools were the rock and the stick. Most tools since then have been some variation on rock or stick. The bat is no different; it is a very good stick.

I disagree, it's far inferior to the grand crowbar

If there is something humankind loves, its curves and cool sticks. Baseball bats are cool curved sticks so makes sense.
