    So picture this, your trying to solo cap. You steal, but as soon as your out of the flag room, you get pelted with at least 20 eggs by two different ninjas.

    This isnt that uncommon is it?

    My idea to combat this would be to add a ninja egg mana bar (similar to chemist pots). I was thinking about limiting ninjas to three eggs before their mana runs out. Another idea a few others and I had would be to add some sort of friendly reminder to not egg spam. If you are throwing more than, lets say 3 eggs in rapid succession some sort of text would appear in the chat (only you would see it). It would be cool if the text that it displays would be random.

    Text Ideas:
    You dont have enough arm strength to throw these
    Try scrambling eggs instead of spamming
    Sam, I dont want green eggs and spam
    Less is more
    Trying to summon a chicken?
    Bro, this aint skywars
    If you could hit your mark, you wouldn't need to throw more
    Woah there, pitching machine! Slow down!
    Deactivating rapid fire mode
    Who ordered that many eggs??
    Continuing our sustainability efforts, we have halted your wasteful egg usage to give the hens a chance to produce more.

    ^ Thank 915 for all of these

    Another idea we had would be to have the game detect a ninja cap in a comp match, and then prevent ninjas from stealing/picking up again that round. That way it would eliminate people having to call out their ninja cap, and prevent someone from ninja capping twice.

    Thanks

    3 seems v fair - and with a mana recharge rate somewhat similar to chemi, no complaints

    altho not super necessary.... if eggs r that op, id think slowness should be removed since the egg itself already breaks the person's sprint like fishing rod pvp... it's still very effective, and the blindness/nausea imo is signature to its stealthiness

    Something like the chemist or mage class would work the experience bar would fill when your able to throw an egg.

    I like the idea, I also like the "Less is more quote". Maybe should find similar quotes so that it randomizes to something each time.
