I can't decide which I want to use.
I enjoy the fun of spitting fire at my enemies with the flame thrower, but I'm afraid of the wind effect, not being able to get full aim, and not doing enough damage.
I love the Holy Hand Grenade. I love it, because it does high damage, makes a big booms that make big craters even in the background and seeing my enemies fly into the air just to hit some hard ground or hit the water real hard or to see them skim across the water. But sometimes, because of my bad aim with grenades and bad escaping from bad situations, makes the holy hand grenade more punishing for my team than the enemy and I end up wasting it.
I like the super sheep. it's awesome, makes just about as big as a boom as the holy hand grenade and I can control it's direction. But there's some places the super sheep can't get to or get out of.
So, what should I use? Flame Thrower, Super Sheep or the incredible and awesome Holy Hand Grenade?

It's not that easy, heh. But you knew that. We had a nice thread about it a while ago now in the WA forum; that would probably be a good place to start if you're after opinions by many players of different skill levels. Here's the link:

Generally, after reaching a certain level of play online, the question becomes less dependent on your own preferences and more on what scheme is being played and who you're playing it against. This probably isn't the level you're interested in yet, but it doesn't hurt to know beforehand. Still, your personal satisfaction should not be disregarded completely and you'll know about that better than any public poll. Anyway, that thread should explain quite a bit.

Thanks. I'm reading it right now.
You know, the Holy Hand Grenade wasn't as strong as I thought it would be. It's not that bad and does good damage, but doesn't always work out in the end, and I was hoping for like a EPIC big bang type of explosion. But it does make a nice big crater.
Update: I read the topic and tried the mad cows, I already tried the pigeon and super sheep, and I say, skip the super sheep because it doesn't work well against darkside tactics, skip the pigeon, because it doesn't do good enough, **** the holy hand grenade because I'm not good at throwing, and they only work well in pits and even then, it doesn't always kill, but now, I'm torn in between flamethrower and madcows.
