Simple Yet Awesome: Difference between revisions

Less impressive than [[Awesome Yet Practical]], but not as dull as [[Boring but Practical]]. Something that's [[Simple Yet Awesome]] is something that you'll find yourself using over and over again, and enjoying it, despite its lack of [[Visual Effects of Awesome]].

* The Iroquois Light Cannon in ''[[Age of Empires III (Video Game)|Age of Empires III]]''. It can't be built until the Industrial Age, and doesn't do as much damage as any other cannon in the game, but is long-ranged and has enough bonus damage modifiers to fill the roles of ''three'' European cannon units at once, and has an incredible level of mobility. It's also slightly cheaper, and (with [[Support Power|Siege Discipline]]) takes up relatively little [[Arbitrary Headcount Limit|population]].

* ''[[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|Team Fortress 2]]'': The Spy's main weapon is a simple [[Butterfly Knife|butterfly knife]]. It's the weakest melee weapon...unless you [[Back Stab|hit them in the back]], resulting in an instant kill. This knife has been the bane of players everywhere since the beginning of ''Team Fortress 2''.

* In [[Kingdom of Loathing]], most classes have special skills like the ability to drown your foe in sauce or [[Dance Battler|dance battle]] them until they are rendered harmless. Turtle Tamers get the ability to headbutt, knee, and whack them with their shield. Oh, and, they will always hit, the second delevels, and the third stuns, which makes for a very easy fight for as long as your MP keeps up.

* The ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'' series is full of this sort of thing. Someone running from you? Create a roadblock of stolen cars. Need to avoid a swarm of heavily-armed enemies? Drive a car up to a wall and climb on top to hop over.
