I bought one the day they hit the shelves. I really like the form factor and the comfort. I understand that it's a little slow and doesn't have slam fire, but I upgraded the spring and now it shoots 130 fps, and I use it to antagonize my boss. I also find it to be significantly more accurate than my Artemis, and the Apollo is easily the most awkward blaster I've ever held and I literally never use it. Overall I think for $28 you're getting what you pay for; A Fisher Price lookin' ass sawed-off sci-fi shotgun thing, and I happen to really like it.

Now Dart Zone exists, and they have actual pro blasters, of which Nerf STILL hasn’t responded to (surprisingly so, as they’re not only the name brand who would have the most popularity and recognition, and the pro blasters would be the easiest to build, as well as to provide marketing material to older audiences), but hey, I guess Nerf thinks they’re too good to make good decisions

It seems clear to me that the new Rival blasters (talking about the Pilot, Fate, Vision, Pathfinder and Forerunner) are designed for plinking rather than battling, and that's fine for me. I think they all feel good to hold and operate, and they're reasonably accurate, so it'd be fun to hold a sharpshooting competition where players have to use all of those blasters. I'd also be down to play battles in which these are the only blasters permitted, and in limited quantities for each team (who gets the Pathfinder?).

I agree with this, except for the Pathfinder; a pump-action, mag-fed springer with traditional ergonomics and the magwell before the grip is the bread and butter platform for 'serious' foam flinging. Think your nexus pro, your talon claw, your Elite Alpha Trooper. I'm surprised it took Hasbro so long to release one in Rival, with the closest thing up to this point being the Hypnos. Suppose mags are redundant when the Hades exists with 60 shots onboard

I bought the blaster a while back when it was new to my Walmart. I am a stock class nerfer who plays with friends and family mostly. I live in an area where nerf has to be done indoors for 9 months of the year cause it gets very cold outside. I also don’t have arenas or major nerf events in my area so I don’t like to buy lots of gear like magazines. So this gun is perfect for small wars or long wars where I can “live off the land.” I also like the format of the gun and the colour of the rounds.

The Chronograph Results screen showing a bunch of other blasters is AMAZING. PLEASE KEEP. I love it. I really miss my Artemis. It got me more wins than any other blaster, I don't do long range at all in a war, so Rival is great for me. Honestly the biggest thing that draws me to this blaster is the ergonomics. If they redo this blaster in the future, bringing the power up(I'd hope 95) I'm going to heavily consider picking one up. Honestly, due to it having a limited capacity I wouldn't want slam fire on this. I have second thoughts. One of the secret advantages of the Artemis is how long its 30 rounds will last you. I've gone entire games forgetting to reload my Artemis, never running dry. It has insane longevity without reloading for a blaster of its size, and this allowed me to always have my eyes up and watching for incoming darts or anyone making a move on the field. Slam fire quickly deters pushes or will clear them entirely. We need a re-release of the Artemis, with more comfortable hand grips(this is necessary. The Artemis grips will hurt your hands, but you can get aftermarket ones). I surely will pick one of them up.

Looks quite useful to me. I go to a nerf based sci-fi Larp where magazine/capacity size determines the class of the weapon, 18 is the limit for a rifle, over that you move into heavy category. So a twelve round capacity rival blaster in what looks like a reasonably slimline package is quite tempting. I play a sniper character and most of my kills are marksman calls, so the secondary blaster doesn't see huge use. A quick draw 12 shot backup looks good to me.

As a plinker this one is interesting to me, because it doesn't shoot that fast but seems to still be very accurate. It's nice to see the balls flying into their target instead of just instantly arriving there. They also didn't mess up the mechanics or ergonomics on this one, so looks like a pretty solid nerf gun for in-home target shooting.
@csgonova2trash4
@csgonova2trash4 Жыл бұрын
That's an interesting point. With slow darts, because of the downward arc, the rear sights need to be capable of being adjusted really high, otherwise the darts hit below where you aim. The backspin on the balls possibly allows for a lower velocity. Kind of like a sniper shooting a very distant target, where it takes time for the bullet to get there. Possibly this rival forerunner can sort of replicate that, except for closer indoor distances. The adjustable rear sight should help. The two dart blasters I have, with their fixed sights, I prefer the higher velocity one because it actually hits where I aim, at around say 20 - 25 ft. The lower velocity one simply hits way below where I'm aiming, so the sights are largely unusable. (And the gun basically blocks my view of what I'm trying to shoot, unless I hold it lower and angle it up.) Unfortunately, on most blasters, the sights seem to be an afterthought.

I am a semi-serious Nerfer who enjoys the Forerunner. I love the Takedown with all my heart, it's a great pump-action blaster that allows me to play aggressively and actually tag people. The Forerunner, for me at least, is basically a Takedown with 4 extra shots, a firmer grip, and a pistol grip- it's a match made in Heaven. I prefer these two over the Artemis because the grip is vertical as opposed to horizontal, which feels much better to fire off repeatedly when I'm sliding or just going fast. Additionally, I find it's much quicker to reload because it's a single-slot as opposed to having to open up the top like a P90. This is all me, I get it's not for everyone, and I definitely think Hasbro could have given the Forerunner slam fire, but I personally enjoy it.

I personally only have the Forerunner but chose it over the Artemis (as top picks for this type of blaster) last second because of other online reviews. They stated that the Forerunner had a higher chrono (90 to 100 measures actually), the balls fly straighter, and the front handle on the Artemis tend to crack after prolonged rough use, not to mention more jams due to the more complicated mechanisms. Among those reasons, reloading faster and being more lightweight is my playstyle.

Just wondering how long have you been using your Artemis for? I personally owns a Artemis that is well over 6 years old, and have not experienced any mechanical malfunction. The problems with yours might be a manufacture issue. This hypothesis is based on the fact that my Apollo broke down because of a gear failure.

I picked up the Forerunner when it came out and love it. It has a nice grip, great priming slide, feels great in the hands, has a great 12 round capacity, and is very accurate. It hits softer than my other Rival blasters, but that's actually better for my purposes. I just use it for plinking, and occasional popping one of our cats when he attacks the others (it doesn't hurt him at all, he just looks perplexed when popped). Overall I think it's way better than the Takedown due to the better ergonomics, accuracy, and ammo capacity. Fantastic blaster!

Don't mean to drop the "not everyone is rich" on you Coop, but the Forerunner does go for something like 25 bucks (I think) while I'm pretty sure the Hades runs you 90 dollars on a good day. I imagine a fair share of Nerf's marketshare is parents or uncles or big siblings buying presents for a child, and a whole bunch of them will probably gravitate towards the big, primary-class looking blaster that still leaves them with enough money to buy groceries later that week. A lot of these mid-range options that aren't as compact as sidearms or as powerful as flagships make a lot more sense when you consider there's a whole bunch of children out there whose families just can't afford to buy them the top-of-the-shelf sort of blasters.

I am the type of person who prefers to play with low-capacity blasters on a field with a lot of obstacles. My favorite setup for Nerf fights is a 1-4 (not necessarily it's just to ban 2x4) capacity blaster with 2 bullets for each and 3 hits required to kill. These conditions really push the tactical aspect of the game to its limits in both team vs. team matches and battle royale matches since you have fewer bullets than you need to kill a single person. The most important thing in this fight is to have high mobility, a handy grip, comfortable prime and reload sequences, and be able to dodge and catch projectiles. So, here are the reasons why I do like Forerunner and comparisons with other guns. 1 Artemis's high capacity has no use for us because you have to be really eco with your bullets. Even if it shoots harder, Artemis has its center of mass really far away from the handle because of the drum, making it almost impossible to use it on the run with one hand, not to mention how hard it is to shoot it from a cover because of its barrel location. 2 Then there's the Apollo, which CAN be used with one hand but makes running around with it awkward because it doesn't allow you to bend your arm properly. Another thing about Apollo is that it has some huge space requirements for reloading in vertical plan - just try to reload it while sitting and you will understand what I mean once it will turn into irregular huge sharpy cross. Forerunner, on the other hand, has its center of mass in a manageable space, has a sight for precise shooting attempts, is really thin so you can shoot from a cover holding it on one side, it has a really comfortable, easy to carry rectangular shape with a pretty big projectile absorption area (blocking shots with guns is allowed) , it can be primed with one hand, and you can easily reload just as you shoot. ( I know that there is also a Kronos for my needs, but the shotgun is just cooler and helps the immersion with its priming sound.)

Coop! I love your videos and have a response to your question at 4:51. The Forerunner makes a good selection in our case. A little context, I run a High Powered Nerf Arena in Northern Michigan. We have League Play for our members every weekend. Because of that, many of the member’s blasters get put through the paces on a weekly basis. Due to the wear and tear blasters take while being used that often (which is definitely more than they are really built for) we often recommend this blaster to new members as something that will probably last for a year or longer without replacement parts. The Rival Takedown was our choice to recommend before the Forerunner. The Takedowns last forever! The Forerunner seems to be a mix between the Takedown and the Kronos with the best from both. Something about the bottom prime that is more like a pump and less like a fore grip is super good for longevity. Keeping the strong bottom prime of the Takedown, with the better grip of the Kronos (not to mention the extra internal rounds do come in handy) I think is great. 90% are still cooking with just a little lube after 3 years of parties and member events. With other Rival Blasters you know what will go wrong first. Kronos: Priming handle will detach at the little screws on either side. Perses: One or either switches will need to be replaced Artemis: Will need charging handle pushed all the way forward while firing or else the seal wont be made and it will misfire. Often will misfire or fire 2 rounds at once. All of the Accu-series have also kept their hop up effect better than previous generations. They do in fact seem to be a little more accurate out of the box than other blasters if all are still stock spring. Love your videos. They have helped me so much!

It feels like an alternative to the Takedown, with the more vertical grip. But I would have liked to see a folding (or removable stock), a top rail (although Rival doesn't really have much to put on a rail) and lips around the loading door to speed up reloads. Have the Forerunner be a more compact Pathfinder for lightweight loadouts, rather than a slightly improved Takedown.

Just got one of these and it jams constantly. The jam is in the internal mag and mid prime, so the prime release button does not clear it, you have to force it to finish priming. Not fun. To answer coops why buy question, my son wanted it because it was cheap and looks like a shotgun, also he has a couple of those other ones you mention but in casual play with his friends they complain they are too OP, So it's possible he wanted something that wouldn't just automatically dominate for casual play or sharing.

I just got it today bc I was sorta bored, and decided to use my other springers with it today. The pathfinder (love the ergonomics) a Kronos on my hip (because of course you need a Kronos) and a pilot in my back pocket. Now this was 3 guns to compete with the Artemis and Kronos set up my brother had, but tbh I really liked it slung on my back because it's slimmer then the artimis and let me have a few shots here and there to cover me if my primary jammed. And I loved it! Great play experience gave me a bit more capacity then my knockout. The main reason I got it though is because I normally play with my family and my gfs family and I'm the only one who has any guns so I bought it to help balance the teams. Rival is so funny going from my Prometheus or Perces(not sure how to spell it) to manning in a 12 shot springer but yeah anyways it helps me as a fun little addition to a load out if its only 2-4 people and it helps me balance the teams when I need to supply 12 people with guns.

It's just another member of the rival shot gun family like the takedown, saturn and reaper shotguns

The only use I could think of would be sneaking this into a pistols only round? Which maybe give it a better argument without slam fire

"okayish" is probably the right word to describe this blaster. There's nothing wrong with it, but there's also nothing interesting about it either. Hasbro need to try more with thier Rival line, it's like thier best line right now. All of thier other lines are either garbage (elite 2.0,hyper, ultra) or being outperformed by other brands

As far as the shell design goes, I love it! More than the Artemis for sure. Are Rival blasters incapable of slamfire? Are they limited from slamfire because they shoot hotter?

I find it a shame that so many shotgun-style blasters don't have a stock attachment point.

it works as a shotgun style thing but it looks like a pistol like in ultimate hellsing(a vampire anime) or gun grave or something similar looks like they'd be dual wielded with the recoil of a Glock but hit with the power of either a Barret or ww1 artillery

I bought one mainly because i just like how it looks, sort of like a standard kinda cartoony shotgun, and im not sure why i just don't really like the artemis

The problem is that you never see an Artemis in store and they are hard to find on Amazon below $50 which is pretty overpriced

I think I would enjoy this one for hvz games, because of the aesthetics. But the velocity is an issue. Also, I would need the price to come down. I own several takedowns and a saturn, so the extra capacity is not worth the price tag.

ya rival is past its prime now, but it arguably changed foam shooting forever by getting an older audience to go higher performance guns. it’s not as good anymore but i don’t think it could get any better.

Hey coop, for a video idea, why not do an updated series overview of the first and better elite line. Yeah I don’t think there were that many new blasters since the first vid, but still.
