Kaos Shopper is a RubberWorm Shopper scheme that explores the "/sdet" command (Shot Doesn't End Turn). It's basically Shopper with Kaos elements. The scheme must be played bo3. Collected weapons will stay in inventory through the rounds. The command "/ldet" (Loss of Control Doesn't End Turn) is off.

Rules

  • AFR - Attack From Rope
  • KTC - Kill The Cow
  • 3 CBA - Every turn there will be 5 crates to pick. Every player must collect MINIMUM 3 CRATES before attacking an opponent!

Note: the rules were mainly designed for competitive play, so casual/"funner" free for all games can be played with the rules open for interpretation to either the host or the players' mutual agreement.

Tactics

  • Drop multiple Cluster Bombs at worms in tight tunnels.
  • If worms are in a hole, drop one or two Petrol Bombs first, and then drop explosives.
  • Use Petrol Bomb to block worms in tunnels.
  • Drop multiple Cluster Bombs to create a rain of explosions on an area with enemy worms.
  • Concentrate the grenades to explode all at once.
  • Use Low Gravity to plop worms on maps that the ceiling has openings (not fully closed).
  • Try to pile as many enemy worms as possible before attacking.
  • Battle Axe is useful with worms with a lot of help (usually in the beginning), two Axes in-a-row to initiate an attack is common.
  • Flame Thrower can cause a lot of damage if used from top if there's an enemy worm exactly below it touching a wall.

Echiko's Kaos Shopper

Despite the name, Echiko's upload is a variation of Supermarket Shopper and not Kaos Shopper. However, the scheme is still very similar with Kaos Shopper.
