Bumper Overview
Bumper is a defense assist blade from PerseusDark, a wide shield-like ring that absorbs shocks and adds bulk under the main blade. It sounds great on paper, but in practice it has been one of the harder assist blades to get results with.
Strengths
- + Wide, rounded profile absorbs impact from many angles
- + Adds defensive bulk under wave-shaped blades like Dark
- + Decent weight at 5.3 grams for a defensive part
Weaknesses
- − Community testing found it hard to translate into wins
- − Sticks out enough to give attackers something to hit
- − Outclassed by Charge for anti-attack and Wheel for tanking
If you run Bumper, keep it under defensive main blades like Dark, Flare, or Antler on a low ratchet with a defensive bit like Wedge or Needle, launched flat to sit and soak hits. Its rim bulk works best when you expect constant contact rather than a spin race. In a 3v3 deck it is a budget defensive assist, but Charge or Zillion usually do the same job better.
