History VideoGame / Krunkerio

* SkillGateCharacter: The Rocketeer is commonly chosen by inexperienced players, due to its obvious power and the reduced need for aiming. More experienced players tend to avoid it, especially in [=FFA=], because the winner is determined by the score, and it's hard to get more than the minimum amount of points for a rocket kill.

** The fff_kanji map has a billboard that references "Be like Bill" meme which states that he did not do "Hacks" or [[Videogame/{{Roblox}} "Roblocks"]].

The game supports a clan system, and there's already genuine rivalry, with dedicated clan Discords, a Clan Central used to set up Clan War matches, and the tournaments with a series of ranking matches. It is also easy to mod, and there are already [[https://krunker.io/social.html?p=maps hundreds of playable custom maps]], with some of the most notable collected in [[TheWikiRule the wiki's]] [[https://krunkerio.wikia.com/wiki/Map_List Map List]]. There is also a variety of game modes, though most are only available on the aforementioned custom maps:

* MacroZone: By far the [[https://krunker.io/social.html?p=maps most popular custom map is AIM_Room]], which is a remake of Andy's room in ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory'', where all the players are toy-sized. The Krunker wiki [[https://krunkerio.wikia.com/wiki/Map_List#Tiny_player_maps has a list]] of the other macro maps like it.

* BrokenBase: Everyone argues over everything in Krunker, whether or not Vince is a GameBreaker or he's [[JackOfAllTrades Completely fair and balanced.]] Needless to say, the Subreddit for Krunker is incredibly toxic. Enter At Your Own Risk.

* LightningBruiser: Chaining slides and jumps together makes you go faster. What makes the slide hopping faster? Frequent jumping and sliding. What makes the jumping (and sliding) more frequent? A lower jump height. What class has the lowest jump height? Spray N Pray.

* RapidFireFisticuffs: Pretty much a modified version of GoodOldFisticuffs, since you can expand the fire rate of any weapon. Yes, that even means the melee weapons.

* EmergencyWeapon: The Pistol acts as one for Triggerman, Hunter, Vince, Marksman and Rocketeer, and no class uses it for their main weapon. Due to its weakness, killing someone with it is rewarded with additional 25 points.

* JackOfAllStats: The default Triggerman class. Has perfectly average health and movement speed, and his main weapon is an assault rifle with a balanced damage, range, accuracy and rate of fire.

** '''Triggerman''': The default class. Wears a typical "businessman" suit. Uses a [[JackOfAllStats balanced]] Assault Rifle and a pistol sidearm.
** '''Hunter''': An archetypal sniper in brown clothing. Uses a SniperRifle with a 3-bullet clip and a slow rate of fire, but which can easily kill other players with a single shot, but carries a pistol as well. Has the lowest health in the game, with 60 [=HP=].
** '''Run and Gun''': A man in blue clothing, who fights with a submachine gun, and nothing else, and possesses the fastest movement speed. His weapon is more accurate than Spray and Pray's [=LMG=], and has the fastest rate of fire, but also has a quarter of its clip size (34 vs. 60), and does the lowest damage per shot. Back then, in Vertix (one of the older games by the De-Vries Bros), however, Run N' Gun is actually shown to be a child. Said child could [[ChildProdigy create guns of his own]], and despite looking like a [[WeaponJR harmless toy gun]] and holding 8 shots dealing 17 damage, it could easily kill a [[TheBigGuy Spray N' Pray (which back then also had a 200 HP health pool)]] with 1 and a half clip. [[TagalongKid Considering that the Krunker's Run N' Gun are one and the same, then this is the youngest of the bunch in the]] CompetenceZone, though they've switched their deadly toy gun in exchange for an UMP-45.

** '''Marksman''': Wears green clothing, main weapon is a Semi Auto rifle that's an archetypal Marksman gun, with lower damage than a Hunter's Sniper Rifle, but also a faster fire rate and a higher mag size (8 bullets [formerly 6] vs. 3 for Hunter.) Has a pistol as well. 2019 patch increased fire rate and raised mag size to 8, but also lowered his damage.
** '''Rocketeer''': Wears green clothing, and uses a rocket launcher and a pistol sidearm. Has the second-highest health and the second-lowest/lowest movement speed in the game.

** '''Commando''': Wears a fully black clothes and has a 3 burst Famas and can wield sidearms.

* {{Bizarrchitecture}}: [[https://krunker.io/social.html?p=map&q=Slender_Burg]] utterly twists the old version of the well-worn default map into something barely recognizable. [[https://krunker.io/social.html?p=map&q=TREE-HOUSE]] map features a couple of utterly enormous trees, comparable in size to the World Tree from ''Film/{{Avatar}}''.

* DeliberatelyMonochrome: The [[https://krunker.io/social.html?p=map&q=Dark_Burg]] custom edit of the default Burg turns every object into the darkest shade of black, with only a little presence of milky ambient light. Even the players only appear as black silhouettes, though the guns of many classes begin glowing turquoise instead, due to the way their base model was originally coded. This makes it a good map for the Infected mode, especially if the nametags (which highlight players' healthbars by default) are turned off.

** There's also the [[SawedOffShotgun]], a sidearm variant of the normal shotgun that has only one shot and with a fairly weak damage cap (considering it fires 5 pellets like the primary and each pellet deals about 12 damage when shooting the body, you can get 60 damage in one full blast, enough to only kill Sniper and Deagler. For headshots, 18 damage per pellet and considering you shoot them point blank, you get 90 damage, enough to kill Vince and Marksman.

** '''Vince''': Black man wearing a purple overall. Uses a shotgun and a sidearm (which may or may not also include a [[sawedoffshotgun]] to give him 3 jump shots in total).
** '''Detective''': Wears brownish overcoat. Uses nothing but a [[revolversarejustbetter 6 shooter revolver]] that has the second-highest damage per-shot after Hunter's Sniper Rifle.

** '''Agent''': Wears suit much like the Triggerman, but dual-wields Uzis. The shortest-ranged class in the game, as his guns spray really wildly unless he crouches still in place.

** '''Run and Gun''': A man in blue clothing, who fights with a submachine gun, and nothing else, and possesses the fastest movement speed. His weapon is more accurate than Spray and Pray's [=LMG=], and has the fastest rate of fire, but also has a quarter of its clip size (34 vs. 60), and does the lowest damage per shot. Back then, in Vertix (one of the older games by the De-Vries Bros), however, Run N' Gun is actually shown to be a child. Said child could [[ChildProdigy create guns of his own]], and despite looking like a [[WeaponJR harmless toy gun]] and holding 8 shots dealing 17 damage, it could easily kill a [[TheBigGuy Spray N' Pray (which back then also had a 200 HP health pool]] with 1 and a half clip. [[TagalongKid Considering that the Krunker's Run N' Gun are one and the same, then this is the youngest of the bunch in the]] [[CompetenceZone]], though they've switched their deadly toy gun in exchange for an UMP-45.

** '''Spray and Pray''': A Light Machine Gun user in green clothing, who lacks a sidearm. Has the largest health (180 [=HP=]), and the slowest movement speed. His gun has a 60 round magazine (originally 100) and can be fired for a long time, but also has horrific accuracy.
** '''Vince''': Black man wearing a purple overall. Uses a double-barelled shotgun and a pistol sidearm.
** '''Detective''': Wears brownish overcoat. Uses nothing but a revolver, which carries six shots and has the second-highest damage per-shot after Hunter's Sniper Rifle.
** '''Marksman''': Wears green clothing, main weapon is a Semi Auto rifle that's an archetypal Marksman gun, with lower damage than a Hunter's Sniper Rifle, but also a faster fire rate and a doubled mag size (6 bullets vs. 3 for Hunter.) Has a pistol as well. 2019 patch increased fire rate and raised mag size to 8, but also lowered his damage.

* ShortRangeShotgun: Less egregious than the usual examples, since it is almost as effective at 10 meters or so as it is at 2-5 meters. Moreover, its spread gives a much larger chance to score headshots at shorter ranges than virtually any other weapon.
* ShotgunsAreJustBetter: At short and even medium ranges, shotguns deal enormous damage, can easily score headshots, and unlike Hunters, they are able to fire two shots one after the other, before needing to reload. The insane damage up front combined with slide hopping makes Vince infamous for one tapping even the Spray N Pray.

* ManlyFacialHair: The Rocketeer, the Commando, and the Deagler all sport a beard. Well, the Deagler has a goatee instead of a beard, but it still counts.

* ManlyFacialHair: The Rocketeer, the Commando, and the Deagler all sport a beard. Well, the Deagler has a goatee, but it still counts.

* BadassBeard: The Rocketeer, the Commando, and the Deagler all sport a beard. Well, the Deagler has a goatee, but it still counts.

* GlassCannon: The Hunter has a mere 60 [=HP=], in contrast to the 100 [=HP=] of most other classes, let alone 130 and 180 [=HP=] enjoyed by Rocketeer and Spray N Pray. However his damage output is so high he can kill a full-health "normal" player with a single body, and any class but Spray N Pray with a headshot.

However his damage output is so high he can kill a full-health "normal" player with a single body, and any class but Spray N Pray with a headshot.

** '''Deagler''': Wears black (or grey) clothes, and simply has a Deagle and a knife. He's literally so forgettable that he doesn't even exist in the Community's eyes.

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Rocketeers are not immune to the exposions from their own missiles.
* JackOfAllStats: The default Triggerman class. Has perfectly average health and movement speed, andhis main weapon is an assault rifle with a balanced damage, range, accuracy and rate of fire.

* TheWorfEffect: Vince can one shot Spray N Pray up close, Bowman can one shot Spray N Pray as well (although it needs to pull back the bolt in order for the full effect to take place) and same with throwing a knife. Take note that Spray N Pray is 180 HP.

** Then there's the Desert Eagle, which is unlocked at level 15, but it's much better than the Alien Blaster since it's powerful
