Fun fact: The reason I decided to actually download Paladins, in 2021, was that when I visited the Paladins website, I was greeted by the name "Bomb King" and a picture of his face. I read his ability descriptions and got hooked instantly. He's been my main/onetrick ever since.
I love the bk voice actor, especially for the announcer pack. You can tell they just locked the dude in the recording booth and he went balls to the walls into that mic, especially for “annihilation” and “15 in a row”
oooh I just tried bomb king for the first time yesterday and already discovered atleast 3 very different playstyles. I like royal subjects the most atm but I will continue trying out different things to find the style that fits me the most. this video came just at the perfect time :D
Great video Andrew and thank you for sharing this with us! I haven't played Paladins for quite a long time and with this video, I am motivating myself again to play it! 👍👍
I recently got back into the game and I switched from a PS4 to PC so Im starting over again (because PSN isnt included in cross-progression unfortunately) and I used to be a Koga main after seeing my friend play him a long time ago, but I found out about Poppy Jumping with Bomb King so I really wanna get good with him now Thanks for the tips! :DD
This is great, thanks. I'm a sucker for a full grumpy loadout as it does well against noobs like me but will certainly try to take my BK further with this.
I'm so glad they reworked royal subjects. I'm sure this will come off as gate-keepy, but old royal subjects was textbook definition of dropping the skill floor to the depths of hell
some niche tech you can drop poppy ult then detonate poppy for small vertical mobility example of this in last push stone keep when you are below the enemy spawn and you dont want to get shoot .
I think i shall be the judge of this tutorial... I remember shock, awe was only movement speed on kills. Craazy how different they messed with my 1 trick. Bomb shelter is useful for throw away card. If i remember correctly my build was Kings new clock 5 "personally this was mandatory for all my builds" Bomb Shelter 1 "Filler" Reinforced Casing 2 "convivence" Kings Court 5 "mandatory" Backdraft 2 "Useful even when going chain reactions" Granted last time I played comp was I think season 4.... when royal subjects was still the increased splash radius. Overall Good tutorial for my old beloved...
You should've made a disclaimer: "Warning, I made this guide while armor plating is op, so it is unlikely someone is going to play a DD but whatever." 😉
I've been trying so hard to optimize Bomb King's Chain Reaction build (and it IS funny to fully execute people with the click of a button), but I had just hit such a wall and been so frustrated..... after taking the advice of this video, I don't even care if my win rate goes up, because I am having WAY too much fun playing as the human ping pong ball lmao
How did u not mention that grumpy bomb also makes you fly more if u use a poppy before it and in the direction of the grumpy explosion, the timing is very tight tho you should try it
The ping comment is a skill issue(just kidding) But, when I was little, I used to play with 150 ping and 10 MGB of internet and still hit master in zombies and multiple player in Call of duty 3
Missed opportunity to say: "This is how to play **intro starts** 'Bomb King!'"
This is how to be **intro** "INVINCIBLE" with **intro** "BOMB KING"

0:29 that Corvus sacfricied himself for his team
This is my luck when I play corvus

Ah yes. My main... the character that made me fall in love with paladins
Yeah! I have been waiting for this one
Can't wait to try this tips. Great vid/guide. Also, cracked up at the VII blushing. LOL

Great video Mr Chicken. I will now try to learn this bomb king
If I saw a Bomb King just fly across the sky like you just did… I would leave honestly there’s no way I’m winning I’m out
AS much as I am a drogoz enjoyer, and even if drogoz has more counters... Yeah, bomb king is harder.
Great vid!
Hey Andrew your guides are awesome ! Keep up the good work ! :]
some niche tech
you can drop poppy ult then detonate poppy for small vertical mobility
example of this in last push stone keep when you are below the enemy spawn and you dont want to get shoot .
I've been waiting so long!
Love the "how to play" series
THX for the vidoe i hope we see VII next
Good video. :)
I think i shall be the judge of this tutorial...
I remember shock, awe was only movement speed on kills. Craazy how different they messed with my 1 trick.
Bomb shelter is useful for throw away card. If i remember correctly my build was
Kings new clock 5 "personally this was mandatory for all my builds"
Bomb Shelter 1 "Filler"
Reinforced Casing 2 "convivence"
Kings Court 5 "mandatory"
Backdraft 2 "Useful even when going chain reactions"
Granted last time I played comp was I think season 4.... when royal subjects was still the increased splash radius.
Overall Good tutorial for my old beloved...

I would love a vatu/evie guide
now we get to see what bomb king is andrew's intro...
How did u not mention that grumpy bomb also makes you fly more if u use a poppy before it and in the direction of the grumpy explosion, the timing is very tight tho you should try it
Winter Witch guide pls! 🥶
Accelerant can Pretty much only be usefull with a yagorath on your team and a shield heavy tank to force them to buy wrecker and not unbound
bomb king has never been a bad champ he will always it within top 5
Drop a dwarf guide next
Imani guide?👀
Is detonate ability damage or weapon damage?
13:32 - me with 250 ping by default 😂
Accelerant buff idea: grumpy bomb explodes instantly on impact with any surface, but its cooldown is increased by x seconds. Is this busted lol?
Yes, it is (but still would've been hard-countered by Unbound). Cool idea tho.
Andrew, do you know why when I dismount and try to use the poppy, 2 are consumed instead of 1?
You're using Jolt in your build, aren't you? That card is bugged with Royal Subjects, don't use it!
@@AndrewChicken thx buddy ^^
Yeah I think I'm just going to give up on Bomb King since I have horrible accuracy because I am on controller.
Remember when poppy could shoot you across the map without shenanigans?
and when mal damba could stun lock you forever, good times man
Vatu and Rei guid
VII guide when
thats my job unfortuantely, as andrew doesn't like VII
nah vii fell off
Try playing bk with a ps4 slim and a xxxx connection. You'll be hating this guide 😂😂😂
The ping comment is a skill issue(just kidding)
But, when I was little, I used to play with 150 ping and 10 MGB of internet and still hit master in zombies and multiple player in Call of duty 3
