    It's mostly a connection thing. I once found that once I got host my shurikens were 10x deadlier than they usually were.

    Until you realized your smoke bomb jump didn't jump.

    Lead the target. Learn some angles along common traffic lanes. Also learn to anticipate where targets will head next, and where they will retreat to.

    I've heard that Armor, RoF, Clip is the best assassin build for someone that can use them effectively.

    Clip, in many ways, is shy of the DPS achievable with reload speed.

    However, clip is great when you have a sniper or gunner reliably standing still on the enemy team, because it makes your attack fatal without reload.

    Other than that, reload speed dishes out that damage. Don't forget to cloak between every clip when you have cloak 3.

    Even with anticipating where they are going it can be hard. Depending on how laggy the match is, your shurikens may have a delay from when you shoot to when they come out on top of the travel time.

    I think he wants to know STRATEGICALLY how to use them.

    Well, remember that your primary job is to kill bots. I use my shuriken launcher to finish off bots that I couldn't kill because I had to bail. I also use it to soften bots guarded by squishies so that I can kill them with a lunge and immediately smoke bomb away. I use it to push back heavies guarding bot lanes, as well, so that I have time to take out a wave of bots.

    If there's a big group of people in the bot lane, I'll just fire from a distance and strafe. It'll slowly put a little bit of damage into everybody so that your team can jump in there and wipe them out, and you'll get a handful of assists.

    I can keep the moneyball down on most maps from midfield because I've figured out some badass shuriken angles. Experiment with different ricochets and stuff like that.

    Lastly, shurikens are great for killing firebases.

    You can bounce shrukens around corners to "spot check" for enemies.

    Just remember, shurikens will bounce off of walls, but not bots or players.

    Why do you need advice on how to use your shurikens? you should focus on becoming a better assassin.

    So how doesn't that fall under the category of becoming a better assassin?

    Becoming better with shuriken launcher = better assassin.

    Herp a derp.

    I second this notion and would like to add that the post quoted by Mrsubguy is a horrible post.
