Both are considered as good, accurate tourney markers. It really comes down to which you like best after trying them both. If you like electros go for the Shocker if not then the Cocker. Note the Shocker has a larger profile & is very heavy, also a bit of a gas hog, but of course is easier to fire quickly.

I don't really understand your comment about not firing too quickly - surely even with the fastest marker you only fire at the rate you pull the trigger:confused:

Yep, Impys are cheaper than Shockers & are very well regarded as tourney markers :) Or as long as you don't play back, maybe a second hand Angel?

If you want a brick which eats gas.......buy a shocker
If you want a light, economic piece of beautiful craftsmanship.......buy a cocker :D

Well if you play mid/front, don't even THINK about a Shocker. They are very large & heavy indeed, & you should be looking at keeping your profile as small as possible & the weight down if you can.
Angel or Impulse for fronts, or maybe a Matrix.
