Ratings - Magic Gridlock Gun
Rating:
8
This weapon will only be rated for Regular 1P/2P use, since it doesn't have any niche or league use.

Price (2/3): Magic Gridlock Gun, Tyrannian Sceptre, Yooyu Knuckle Duster, and Turned Tooth are the staple for relatively cheap constant attackers and their prices are usually good and affortable for someone that's been saving up for a week or so. You should always choose whichever's cheapest at the moment. If you're just starting and need a strong weapon you should only buy this or the weapons above if they're at an acceptable price range (Around 100-200k). Otherwise it's better to get The Power of Friendship for a stable and cheap 13 iconer instead.

Power (5/5): 14 or so icons is the bare minimum nowadays for a GOOD weapon. for 1p icon types don't matter much so as long as you get enough icons you'll be able to do intermediate level battling just fine. 2p is a completely different story but most people don't focus on that, and if you're doing 2p you're usually doing either high level battling where these weapons won't be enough, or one of the respective leagues that have their own restrictions.

Uniqueness (1/2): The list of 14 iconers and similar is rather small, so these will always be sought after, at least until icon inflation makes the bare minimum higher.

Overall It's a staple by now. Every battler that does 1p at a decent enough level will most likely have this weapon or one of its alternatives. If you wanna buy them, make sure to check the other options and get the cheapest one, since they all do the same basically. Because of that its final rating is 8/10.

Price/Power (5/5)
14 incredibly spread out icons in a multi-use item and for a cheap price. Icon inflation is insanity.

Countermeasures (5/5)
This does so many different icons it would take an actual effort to block them all.

Alternatives, Upgrades or Downgrades
Yooyu Knuckle Duster has the same amount of icons but is highly physical focused. I would likely pick this over it though.

Other Points (1 Penalty)
I just- I can't I can't encourage this crazy inflation and this is even still after it was nerfed.

Final Thoughts
Crazy idea- make this hit for 3x as much and make it require a three turn windup before each shot
