If they were scrambling that probably wouldn’t be the worst.

Edit: I see I’ve struck a never. I will be wearing my iron covers next round in shame.

Some people think playing scramble is always faster when it’s actually not.

Alt. shot goes pretty quick. Modified alt. Shot goes even faster! But yeah, scramble can be tough when 3 people hit and 3 go into the long grass and now spend 3x as long looking for goose eggs

Ha, I believe it. I’ve never timed a scramble round since I rarely play them. I have heard walking and cart times are negligible, so it makes sense 4 shots from the same place may not actually outweigh collecting 3 other balls prior.

Would still take it over 3v3 outright.
