is flywheel meta? or is cata?

Fly wheel, cata, puncher doesn’t matter. Anchoring to the match load bar is the meta.

The flywheel and cata are good for different things. Flywheel is good for matches , while cata is good for skills.

My team uses a flystick and it is fantastic for matches. It still works in skills but isn’t very consistent.
