I played on this 9ft Brunswick with ball return recently. What's the model?

This is at Splittsville Tiki Social in Tampa, FL.

This video shows how the Subzero Pulse consummable is very effective against Hyperion, particularly in phase three. He's hardly the most dangerous boss. Still, it feels good to thrash him properly. This is one way to do it.

Sometimes, a glitch can be favorably exploited. These Obolites feel deserved after all the times I've been screwed trying to fight Nemesis as the joiner Scout in co-op. This Obolite trick works elsewhere too.

This video shows how pausing at a new doorway can help you plan to maximize your effectiveness in a room with a timed event. I would have gone for the malignant chunk as well, but ran out of time at the end. I'll just have to be faster next time. Always the student, never the master.

I previously posted another video about not barreling through new doorways, here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Returnal/s/g7EdPiZesX

I think my meaning was misunderstood by some there, which may well be my fault. Perhaps I gave a poor explanation. I'll try again here. These particular videos are meant for beginner or intermediate players. I don't claim to have perfect methods or the best methods possible. Just ones that work well, which may be helpful to those who haven't found their own style yet.

I hope that newer or less experienced players may benefit from such videos and that these help them avoid death, maximize advantages, and have a great cycle. My ultimate purpose is to help others enjoy this game that I love so much. That said, I hope everyone enjoys my OC, not just new or less experienced players.

For the record, I oppose fighting through doorways in every scenario, which is not what I was doing here. In the linked video, I kite the teleporting Mycomorphs to me one or two at a time in a room with good cover instead of fighting them all at once in a room with no cover. I don't have to rush in like Leroy Jenkins when I can bring the enemy immediately to me where conditions are better. I do this partly because it optimizes my chances of keeping my shield and adrenaline. I also do it because it maximizes my chances of getting every Obolite possible out of this fight. If rushing in is more your style, that's fine. You're welcome to it. In fact, I'd love to see your video showing you rush in and collect all obolites from these four Mycomorphs without getting hit!
