The Nemesis MXVII-10K is named after Nemesis, the Greek goddess who enacts vengeance on those who succumb to hubris.

If you are involved in a day-long NERF war, being able to sling your blaster during “breaks” is so much more convenient. Fill the easy-loading hopper and unleash a blistering blast of rounds at a velocity of 100 feet per second (30 meters per second). As you would expect, the results were almost identical to the Khaos, which essentially shares the same flywheel mechanism.When it comes to bonkers ammo capacity, the Nemesis is by far the greatest official option, but there are other DIY mods to go even further.

Apart from the slight delay between trigger pull and firing, it feels like pretty much any other full-auto blaster – short squeeze and you fire one or two rounds, hold it down and you get a string of darts. If the Nemesis does jam (which rarely happens), the entire hopper chamber can be pulled out, which gives you almost full access to the internal mechanism.I always win, my husband will tell you otherwise, but he is wrong…) The pictured nerf RIVALs are not the same as the new one we got this year though, The Nerf RIVAL Nemesis MXVII-10K Blaster is quite different! If you find your Nemesis will not spin up, the first thing to check is whether the hopper door is shut. My only complaint is that I wish it was in more colors, but other then that it is a very fun blaster. The Nemesis uses the same conveyor belt feeding system as the other Rival blasters, the Perses and the Prometheus, to pull rounds from the hopper into the barrel to shoot.
