    Just buy an Empire Resurrection, drop in a sweet Inception FLE body and be done with it. That marker will make you X10 the player any electro will. Hell, take Cockerpunks advice and buy a sear tripped blow back.

    I'd say that would be impractical to play with in tournaments, but there's a guy at my field who plays speedball with a ressy and does pretty well.

    For the love of anything you care to mention. Don't buy a Vapor!! They didn't fix much.

    What's the issue with the Geo?

    Actually, at 10.5 Millennium ramping, a mech gun might not be that impractical. Sure, you wouldn't be able to lay down the steady stream, but I'd bet you could get a good mech gun up over 10.5 on a good day. That, and there's the comedy of deliberately running a mech gun in a tournament today.

    It's still assuming a deliberate disadvantage for no reason. Not really what a tournament player is trying to do
    "So you've done this before?"
    "Oh, hell no. But I think it's gonna work."

    From my experience with the Vapor compared to other guns:

    The problems with the Geo are fixable.

    The problems with the DYE are fixable.

    The problems with the Vapor may not be fixable.

    I still feel that irony and personality is sorely lacking in the tournament scene. I'd even support a team I dislike for doing this.
    If there is another group of people outside of paintballers who will jump on a bandwagon faster than the speed of light - I have yet to meet them.

    Did I miss where the OP said he was looking for a tournament marker / to play tournaments?

    Agreed

    His signature suggests it.

    We made broad sweeping assumptions.

    Funny how I'm about the most awful tournament player ever, but that's where my mind went first. Weird.
