Fang Moveset Mod Recommendations

[Thokk]

I'm sure most of us can agree that the blasted sniper is the worst character out of the vanilla cast. That's no surprise, of course, but i'm not here to clown on the poor Jerboa.

I'm here to ask YOU what's your favorite moveset mod for the guy. C'mon, any recommendations are valid, from ones that change how he fundamentally plays, to more smaller scale ones that just tweaks some aspects of his already existing moveset.

Imma say one real quick: XMoveset

While it is a hodgepodge of different open assets mods, the way those assets are melded together is really great. Fang, I believe is the character that benefits the most, thanks to the fusion of his XMomentum moveset, along with a stomp move that can be canceled into a fast-fall... Oh, and a head start that can be activated with C1. Its snappy, fast and honestly quite fun: blasting enemies and bouncing your way to victory!
You can find it on Zyphyr's. Chances are that if you've joined that server, you'll have a version of the mod lying around your Downloads folder. View attachment srb20193.gif

I checked this out, and I've gotta say
1. Man I kinda hate the rest of this mod, I can't even tell how Metal Sonic works. Kinda runs into the problem a lot of mods that change the vanilla cast do where everything is lumped together and some of it works a lot better than the rest--of course, in order to make this I'm pretty sure they needed to cut some things out of other mods that likewise have the same issue! I really do wish more of these big overhauls also had optional standalone mods for the parts.

2. Okay this Fang actually kinda slaps.

Personally I've just been running Fang with Rphys Lite, and then never actually picking him for anything but boss fights and when my randomizer gives me Fang + Someone Else just playing as someone else most of the time. I just checked out Bopgun and it's pretty cool, though, and is also the first Fang mod I've found that can at least kinda be combined with First Person Sniper, which is cool but a bit too much of a change to a vanilla character for my taste.
