He starts with the big bombshell: buy your darts by the thousand packs if you plan to play regularly in all day, planned event games. This is not feasible if using Nerf darts. Part of me can't help but think Hasbro never conceived that their consumers would ever be using so many darts, and in failing to do so, placed too high a priority on up pricing their "razor blades" which eventually served to paint themselves into a corner as cheaper substitutes became ubiquitous. Can they sell them for less? Even given their higher QC standards, to say nothing of their marketing budget that likely exceeds the entire production and distribution costs of all other manufacturers: absolutely. You're competing with the largest toy manufacturer on the planet. But it would alter their business model, which works just fine for the 90+% of their customers who don't buy their darts by the hundreds, much less in thousand pack bricks, and just want to pick them up at retail while shopping for other things.

Most people don't want to spend a month waiting on darts, nor do they want a thousand. Also, younger nerfers do not probably know about accufakes.

Yep, i use Accufake because its so expensive to use hasbro originals. I ran a set if games over a weekend with 200 kids. We were going to lose a lot of darts. Started off with 20 kids, 6 darts each (a strong arm full) thats 120 darts. Rather than 100 hasbro darts that will get lost in no time, I can get 1000 knock-off and play for the weekend. seriously, hasbro need to sort their prices out. Oh yeah, great video. Pleased that you did the Acurecy test, and have to admit, i could see the spotted window comming. Worth watching the footage for that. ;)

Watched it. It was certainly comprehensive. Enjoyable as with all your content, Drac. Keep on flinging foam, brother!

I watched most of it. The important stuff. I find it rather annoying that Hasbro both still makes Elite darts, in the face of Accustrike darts, and massively overcharges for both kinds of ammo, which is made worse by the fact that there is no actual reason for them to do so. Hasbro sucks sometimes.

Unlike Accufake and Adventure Force darts, you can walk in to just about any store that sells games and toys, and walk out with some new Nerf darts. But you may say that's not true... well Dartzone and Adventure Force brands don't appear to be sold anywhere except America and Canada? Certainly not in the UK. I'm sure someone might buy small numbers, import them, and then resell them at increased cost, but I mean, the rest of the world does exist, and foam flinging takes place in it. Thankfully X-Shot now make and sell some reasonable darts at reasonable prices, and shops in the UK sell them. 😁

Watched the whole video thanks for doing this for those who dont have the time or money to do it on there own i came to pretty much the same conclusion doing alot less testing than you did again thanks for all the time and effort you put into this for the nerfing community as a whole

Watched the whole video. Found it informative and comprehensive. Well done, don't let size deter you as long as it is well edited and contains valuable information.

I actually appreciate the long form for something like this. I most certainly did watch the whole thing.

Watched the whole thing dude. Keep up the good work.

Watched the entire video, really admire you as a youtuber, and even more as a nerfer. In fact you're the reason I got into this hobby as I have. Great video and great info as always. Super anxious for info on endwar 2019, but I'm sure you're already hard at work on that. Keep up the great work and keep up your level of contributions to the hobby. Would love to pick your brain for a minute if you get a chance, I'm currently doing some nerf science myself right now.

Thanks drac for using your time to do this. It really helped me because for the last year I have been using horrible hard tip darts. 👍

I only used to catch videos from this channel when my auto channel played them randomly. I've watched a few and wasn't a big fan. I must say that after watching this video the maturity and evolution of the platform plus the performance of the host are impressive. You earned my subscription and thumbs up. Keep up the good work!

Kinda wish that you had tested the x-shot, they're my favorite and have always performed wonderfully for me.

did i just watch a 34:54 dart comparison vid when i already saw the latest one?!

I watched it all Drac... And it was great! Keep up the good work

I watched until the begging of the stryfe test with adventure zone but then skipped ahead

I’ve just become the biggest nerf nerd over the last few weeks and this is one of my new fave channels, thanks for the content

I always watch you vids and I watch every second of them. You make great videos I can tell you work hard on them to.

Not only did I watch all of it, now in 2020 I watched it 3 times now. Thanks for the third time Drac!

Drac thx so much for the comparison never knew I had options

I was so happy when I saw the new adventure force darts at my Walmart. I’m fully expecting(I haven’t finished the video yet) that these waffle heads will win out. Nerf darts are restricively expensive and while my brother got 800 darts for Christmas last year that we can use, they’re voberries, so it’s not as much fun to play with them. I’ve also used the adventure force branded version of the x shot darts before, but since here shorter they don’t function in flywheel blasters and cause jams. These new, cheap but high quality adventure force waffle heads are some of the best I’ve ever used, though, with accuracy, distance, price, and convenience!

Great analysis, comprehensive review. Thanks for sharing

Adventure Force Waffles also have awesome glue. Great for high crush setups.

thanks for doing all this work! good info

Watched! I've followed you from penny modding Mavericks until today. Excellent content, as always.

Very interesting. Honestly didn’t know about the zuru darts and had considered purchasing them as they seem very easily available here in Australia. They are also labeled as “works with all blasters” tag. Thanks as always Drac mic drop!

I watched this and I watch all your videos Drac because they are good and I think you’re the best nerf KZreadr in my opinion. Btw didn’t mind that it was a 30 minute video

Love the Cortana themed stryfe! Super rad!

Adventure Zone is my favorite so far, They perform very similar to accustrike. I haven't got the accucopies yet.

I'm watching this the full way through! Nothing better for me to do!

Amazing video! So much effort - thanks Drac. 'F' to pay respects to the screen-door.

I really appreciate your candor sir. I try not to support knockoffs, but I do understand your rationale and will probably put in an order as a test... maybe... but seriously great vid! and props to you giving props to other channels doing similar reviews!

This has been a pretty good video

Love the disclaimer.. keep up the good work. 👍

Still watching, I love the super nerdy analysis stuff like this

damn that was an excellent legal blurb in the intro!

Even though this a pretty long video, I still watched the entire thing. I actually really like the statistics of things,and found this video both interesting and helpful. Thanks for the video drac and keep up the good work! Think about making more videos like this please, even if youtube doesn't care to pay you and even though many people wouldn't even come close to watching the whole video[I would though :),and other people who care about statistics,specifically nerf statistics ].

i like this and if i need more darts i know where to go however i would like to know why the semisolid little valentines were not included

About time someone did this video. Length is not important when the data and results are what we all are looking for. I enjoyed the whole thing and the 35 min is worth it to see what darts do and what's good for your buck. As for me, I hate waiting so I go for the adventure force. Next will be accufakes

Hy just watched this and I really helped me with Xmas

Thanks for making this!

So for springer snipers (so accuracy is the most important) the Adventure Force darts are the best? I just want to check if I understand correctly. If there are better darts for this, I'd like to know too.

@ajvotto6901

3 жыл бұрын

On tighter barrels and such they do drag more. If you need a high end springer dart. Get dart zone bamboo darts or AF half darts

What is is that caliburn on the right drac?

The X Shot darts work in some spring, cylinder blasters: Strongarm/Disruptor, Alphahawk, also the Roughcut, Firestrike, Persuader, very well. These are the blasters I tested them in where they worked. The Delta Trooper, Rayven, Stockade, mag fed and/or flywheel blasters won't take them because of length. They are no good an magazines but might work in clips, I just don't own any clip fed blasters. They actually work much better than Nerf elites in the blasters which take them and gives me separation between flywheel and spring/cylinder darts. If you only run something like the Strongarm around the backyard or whatever, they are pretty good and cheap.

Watched the whole video. Enjoyed hearing your opinion on the darts and the time and effort you put into it. 👍🏻👍🏻 (p.s. I know you probably won’t ever do this again but get an old bed sheet or large towel to block getting paint dots on your sliding door lol)

Thanks man! I was wondering what to buy for an “upcoming” Nerf battle.

The review really helped me out

Drac please do another show of all your rare crossbows has your collection increased?

I watching this!! Great vid!

Do you have a updated link to the accufakes? The link in the description doesn’t work anymore, and i would like to give my parents a functional link for them to buy them for me and my little brothers for Christmas. It would be a big help

The tedium of this video was insane. However, I TRULY appreciate the efforts you made for this video. I feel accuracy is far more important than fps, and finding out of the dozens of darts available now, even only 6 months after your test, that finding accuracy, and designing accuracy upgrades for our blaster hobby should take priority. Dreaming of a day where you can hit a target 50 feet away reliably, with upgraded blasters, is pretty amazing and would diversify the gameplay quite a bit. Shooting anything is only as good as it is accurate, so there is that. Quality video, sir, thank you, again.

not sure if it's been asked or if you have done a vid on it but what is the rayven with the white kit on it?

Glad to see a good scientific review of these dart types, and yeah, I bet that vid took for ever to edit.

I watched all the way through and nice job Lord Drac, definitely makes the next wish or Ebay dart shop a lot more informed than just going by what's cheap, my only question is how is Cortana is just know getting seen/some KZread love?

I'm watching cause I love your videos

Thank you for this!

Can you do this with half length darts and mags I want ti do a SPAMF kit as my first mod

What off brand darts has a good soft tip for my flywheel blasters?

Watched all the way. Interesting results.

Well worth the length of the video

watching to the end!

I wonder what the testing would be between eking waffles and dartzone ones. I want the ekind but still wondering which is better

pretty crazy with how the scene has changed to see a video from just a couple years ago where "the alpha trooper is the best springer period for like HVZ and stuff" was an accurate statement.

great video. I have bin using the Dart dart zone for awhile and honestly I love them work great. When I say your instagram pic of you deciding between dart zone and the zombie strike darts I was crossing my fingers you would do a test on these. The foam seems to be a tab firmer and peels a little over many uses (in my regulator)I believe its the little roller belt that pushes the darts into the fly wheel that seems to rip them happens to all my darts Ekind,nerf brand as well but in the stryfe and all other fly wheels and springers they work. amazing. and yes I watch all your vids start to finish.

Stayed for whole vid, leaving comment down below. Great work! Is buying accufakes from OODs as unethical as buying them from nfstrike/lightake/ect? Also what about Ekind waffles off Amazon?

I'd watch a video of your views and insights on IP in the toy industry; that would be really interesting.

Drac can you post more of the senc please I have been watching the videos you posted a few years back and loved them
