The Ninja Rope is one of the most popular movement utilities in the Worms series. Used in several modern schemes including Shoppa, WxW, and Rope Race, this transport utility is one of the most convenient and useful things in the game.

Tactics

  • Useful for getting across the map without losing a turn.
  • You can fire weapons from the rope and make a quick getaway.

Criticisms, Problems and Weaknesses

  • In modern versions of Worms, the weapon's power setting controls the amount of shots that can be made with the rope at a time. Low power settings are a big inconvenience to players because they have to land, detach from the rope, and reattach a new rope before they can continue roping.

Glitches

There was a trick that allowed a player to fire the Ninja Rope downwards into the terrain. See Indian Rope Trick for more information.
