Top 5 Friday: The Best NERF Blasters of 2021

[@Thesnakerox]

Isn't it interesting how Dart Zone has been #1 on Drac's top 5 best picks for 3 years in a row now? 2019 - Pro Mk 1 2020 - Nexus Pro 2021 - Pro Mk 3 Other companies should probably take notes...

[@mkendall8393]

The problem I have is Drac never acknowledges the issues that plague these Dart Zone pro blasters. Some of these issues render them almost unusable. The MK 2 is a 50/50 if you get one that shoots as advertised or a sub 30fps dud, which is inexcusable for a $70 secondary. The Full Auto on the MK3 is almost unusable due to inconsistent/skipped shots and it is NOT compatible with a ton of aftermarket mags. And don’t get me started in the MK 1 which has multiple widely reported issues including cracks near the pins. But do you hear these issues on this channel?

[@laurencebarnes5361]

@@mkendall8393 Any sources regarding that? Never read that anywhere

[@thekinection424]

@@laurencebarnes5361 source: just trust me bro nerf is better

[@laurencebarnes5361]

@@thekinection424 I mean seriously, the springers Nerf has have much less internal stress, and yet people definitely had issues with blasters breaking. If we hold all the (injection molded) blasters of companies up to the same standards, I doubt that any is better in terms of quality, but all will replace broken/faulty blasters. Even funnier is the MK3 mag compatibility issue. It has been proven several times that most, if not all, Aftermarket magazines fit in. I do not own the MK3 yet, but with the Max Stryker I heard in multiple places that 18 dart nerf stick mags do not fit, but by pushing them in properly, even these worked (and all the worker magazines I tried fed flawlessly as well)

[@glockfanboy4927]

Wake up Nerf or in die dart zone's dust!!!!!

[@samuelhartmann1824]

An interesting and *highly* controversial video that would be cool to see you make would be the 5 or 10 most important/influential blasters over the last 20 years. For me it would be in no particular order stryfe, longshot, stampede, dart zone nexus pro, and maybe the perces or similar rival blaster.

[@anthonymah7075]

As a new nerfer who is currently trying to learn everything he can about the hobby I love this idea

[@clippeh908]

dont forget the hammershot, that thing was loved to death and we havent had such a good single handed springer since

[@Thesnakerox]

I'd say the Maverick, Jolt, and Dart Zone Pro Mk 1 were also pretty influential. The Maverick and Jolt are just iconic, and even though the Pro Mk 1 wasn't the most accessible, it was the first time we saw a major blaster company make a blaster with competitive performance.

[@clippeh908]

just watched the video nvm LOL

[@shawnthehondaguy2617]

I agree with the whole list actually. I have everyone of those. The conquest pro with a pump grip is my favorite secondary, and the dz mk3 with an out of darts crooked cousin is my best primary

[@tristan.o]

Surprised the conquest came at 2nd instead of the Stryker, I would have switched those two around.

[@TheSybermedic]

I agree with you, I love my Mk III and my Stryker.

[@GameKnight07]

I knew the dzp mk3 would be 1st. I'm happy that some nerf blasters have been able to get back to the top

[@Burasta]

So Dart Zone called their darts Ember and Ruby? Aren't those stripper names?

[@singlish76]

Some ideas fore more top 5 Fridays, Top 5 competitive blasters, Top 5 least competitive blasters, Top 5 goofy blasters, Top 5 unique blasters, Top 5 Heavy MGs

[@chriscapps206]

I absolutely agree that the MK 3 is #1,I obtained one this Monday and got it for $100 or so,mod parts come in 3 days or so,definitely the most high performance and favorite blaster I own,and only the 2nd Lipo powered flywheeler I have now(1st is a modded Perses)

[@Bukkarooo]

I love my conquest pro. It's more comfortable to me than the Nexus pro (I don't like how loose the first half of the prime on that is stock). It's a cool looking blaster too, I actually keep that muzzle break off! I like the flat nose to it.

[@13slot28]

By no mean am I a hardcore "nerfer" but I love buying a new blaster and having fun with my kids! This list is awesome!

[@smittzero8463]

A Stryfe with a massive dinosaur head on the front? This should be in everyone's top 5 Predictions for the worst list (not certain on numbers): 1) Buzz Bee Thundershot - Wanna go hunting for the ones that won't break on you? 2) Mandalorian Amban Phase-Pulse Blaster - Even the cheaper option is a scam 3) Flipshots Flip 16 - What do you get when you cross a company with no concern for quality control with a blaster containing SIXTEEN smart ARs? There's a reason they delayed the 32... 4) Roblox Armory - The worse part is that kids will still buy these blasters 5) Hyper Siege 50 or Mach 100 - Rush 40? More like Rushed to market Special mentions to the Fortnite Pump SG and Halo Mangler for being offensively lazy designs, and the blue repaints of the Alpha Strike Tiger and Wolf.

[@ramsey6227]

What about the Warden

[@smittzero8463]

@@ramsey6227 That was 2020, fortunately for Hasbro

[@jonathanwieler8315]

I would like to say that the rush40 is awesome. I have it and experienced hyper, and it would not belong on a top 10 worst list

[@smittzero8463]

@@jonathanwieler8315 Yeah, I hear the Rush is pretty good. It's the other two I've seen people have feeding issues with

[@Semicolon7645]

Great throwback to the Zoids series, one my personal favorites.

[@singlish76]

I almost died when I saw your number 4 pick. :)

[@bleachsmoker]

I got both of the honorably mentions (tomahawk and striker). I added a worker folding stock to the tomahawk. I also got two Fortnite revolvers for some revolver ocelot spinnin.

[@firetroop2775]

I'm glad the sh6 made the list I haven't owned a hammershot yet and this being my first introduction I absolutely love the thing and it's a go to secondary for me Also the Mark three definitely deserved top 1 (I still don't know what to paint my Mark 3 I need help)

[@nicoofthenight8403]

Purple/tuquiose Look at Halo Covenent weapons

[@SouthernGentleman55]

Honestly. This video convinced me to get the dino stryfe for my little brother. He's only 5 so not ready for the good high powered blasters but I wanted to get him something fun and competent. Thanks Drac

[@ITS_JAYJAY_2006]

I’m possibly gonna get an adventure force Spectrum for Christmas. Great video

[@ArmegeddonCraft]

The 6-Sh is the best nerf pistol ever, coming from the most unlikely place, the Fortnite line. I don’t like Fortnite. I don’t like it’s fans, I especially don’t like it’s haters, and I don’t like it’s gameplay. But the nerf tie in came completely out of left field in terms of quality. The designs were goofy, but ergonomically comfortable, and reasonably priced for a tie in line, and they kept getting better. The IR was amazing, and while there have been a few stinkers (literally) the blasters have largely been really good.

[@pv8685]

Bobo is a very entertaining person. Would be a good addition to the top 5 fridays. But number one sidekick is Jinx! 😁

[@robertbrunello]

Great video! I own the top 4!

[@slagfoamer809]

BOOMDOZER. You want a fun blaster, that’s the one!

[@colemanstryk3r557]

I would love a Max Stryker, it just looks so cool and something I have been wanting for such a long time. Perhaps I can buy it for myself for Christmas.

[@CainSuzuko]

I really wish the Dart Zone and Adventure Force blasters would become much more common in the Southeast Asia region. Also, too bad Dart Zone's not available in Australia. Edit: Oh shit nevermind, a local nationwide toy store's now supplying Dart Zone blasters here in the Philippines.

[@OBLOfficiall]

What store?

[@ZakLeek]

Thanks for the brilliant video Drac! 💙💜

[@MisplacedMoose]

Going to do a top 5 hobby blasters? Seems like a bunch of new cool stuff has been coming out lately.

[@nerftalk1163]

Lol, Drum is easily removed! Is it me or does Bo Bo kind of look like the Big Show? No offence! Nice to see some Nerf blasters on the list. I like the look of the Worker Swift. Hope to get a Conquest soon. Great top 5! Thanks!

[@thomashines100]

Really would have made number 4 and 5 honorable mentions, and the honorable mentions number 4 and 5

[@410itsdevo3]

You should do Farcry Blood Dragon colors for the Dino blaster. The neon colors would look insane on that.

[@mechanwhal6590]

I get the feeling that very few of these will actually be from Nerf.

[@MeanBeanComedy]

WRONG AGAIN BUTTMUNCH !! 😎😎😎

[@elevation9123]

2/5, higher than I expected, yes my opinion of hasbro has sadly fallen that much, but I understand the the choices, T. rex is a cool stryfe and a upgrade of the hammer shot is great, might have to pick them up

[@awes0men0b0dy9]

The tomahawk 60 and spectrum are the 2 blasters I want this year

[@GameKnight07]

I think that the nerf mandalorian blaster will be on the 5 worst

[@smittzero8463]

It'll come second to the Buzz Bee Thundershot, after that blaster's disastrous launch. At least the Mando sniper works...

[@captsomeguy1]

@@smittzero8463 nah, the Thundershot is only $10. Disastrous? Definitely, but mere pocket change. Nothing to lose sleep over. Mando is $120, a super long wait and a middle finger to the people who pre-ordered when they showed off the cheaper $50 version.

Been waiting for this all year.

[@themorrigan1312]

Solid list, Drac! On an unrelated note, as a nerfer who at least used to play Destiny, and for all I know, might still, what are your thoughts on the Nerf Gjallarhorn that'll be coming next year?

[@TheJony623]

I’m not drac but, unlike literally every other limited nerf gun this one seems to be worth the hype and price as it does something unique and innovative and has use combined with a sick cross over makes it worth the price if you’re into destiny. It’s uniqueness if you don’t know is a top breaking shotgun mechanic that fires 3 mega darts at once with a shell that most likely ejects the shell but that eject part is uncertain.

[@yevanasvetya5486]

Can you mod the fortnite revolver so that it symetrical?

[@morshu3124]

Is getting DZ blasters worth if i dont mod whatsoever?

[@dragonstwilight6389]

You bet it is! They have the performance of some modded blasters right out of the box, they average roughly 150 fps with no mods.

bro, it would be absolutely amazing if they made a mimigun with like a 1000 round capacity. Short dart only, 10 darts a sec, and even a spinning barrel. Dartzone would probably price it at $400 but I wouldn't even care b cuz it'd be worth it.
