Nobody here plays at Hell Survivors in Michigan anymore but I need a place to warm up for my crusade.

I must say I have NEVER seen worse paint in my life than the field paint at HS. I just can't fathom that they get $60.00 a case for this crap.

Here's the first 6 balls I pulled from a left-over bag and all of the paint we got had flat spots.

Wow, that looks worse than the monster balls I got, and they were only $30 a case.

Diablo blaze?
Worst paint I ever seen was year old allstars. 100dollars a case at a tourney and 2 bags out of each case had broken paint. Halos were blending like crazy, barrel breaks and chops were non stop all you can shoot out of your gun was yellow soup.. everyone that used allstars were throwing them away and geting the cheap diablo recsport crap.

I set a friends tadao cyborg to NXL unlimited and tryed to shoot. looked like the gun was peeing.

Theres a field here that has the Worst paint ever. At least 10 rounds a bag were broken. And on average you would have about 20 break in the hopper just from movement, chop at least 30 and barrel break about 50. That left about 400 rounds that didnt go where you wanted them to because of the previous breaks.

Now this wasnt my gun doing that, it happened to just about everybody. I played there once and never went back. Only reason I can think why other people go back, is because its so cheap. But the cleanup job on my gun was Not fun
People who are organised are just to lazy to look for things.

I would never pay more than $60 for a case of paint. I can find perfectly decent paint for $45 or less.

I pay 50 a case for Evils and Allstar here.  In my opinion, it is the best paint money can buy.

$30 for some practice paint. Works great with the pump.

You should've seen the bucket of paint my cousin bought once.  It was one of those $35 per bucket crappy paint deals you always find at Scheel's, or whatever sporting goods megalomart you shop at.  Shooting those things was almost like shooting boomerangs.

On an unrelated note, I want to create my own brand of paint, blue-shelled only, called Blueballs, solely for the fact that when people buy my paint, they can tell everyone that they have a case of the Blueballs.

I've come to realize that the closer your field is to a paintball making factory, the better the paint is.
Example. At my field, the empire paint is the best paint at the field and the factory is only 45 minutes away tops from the field. Even the lower quaitly empire paint is damn good.
The evil paint, which is supposed to be extremely good, is just terrible.

I really must say I was rather impressed with monster balls/ They shot decently good and $30 a case. They worked good considering we bought four cases of it and we went through all of them.

I use Triax. $8.00 for 500, and I find them reliable. Not the best, obviously, but great for a player on a budget.

At my field it's $80 for a case of 2,000.. it's actually GOOD paint though (RPS Premium Field) On the field you have to use THEIR PAINT, When i'm off the field I use RPS Premium, OR Diablo Heat. Diablo Heat is $40 a pop for 2,000.. best paint I've shot so far.
