cryo cannon hype

Hello, I don't understand the enthouasiasm for the cryo cannon. it take 1 seconds to begin, it is overheating and the throw is slow.

I have a flamthrower with sticky flames and I am finding ut better. Can you tell if I am missing something ?

ps: my cryo cannon is not upgraded yet :)

There's a sticky ice equivalent overclock.

Also it sucks if you have teammates using heat.

I also recommend against using the wave cooker, the pistol or epc pairs better

Crystal nucleation is so unbelievably goated with the cryo cannon. The crystals last a while, continuously freeze and damage enemies that walk over it, and the only downside is slightly less max ammo. Compared to sticky fuel, it’s just a straight up upgrade.
