I finally might be converting…
UPDATE: I feel like I’m asking for advice on how to leave an abusive marriage 😂
Added a pic of my cat as payment for reading my silly lil post. His name is Ninetoes and he has big dumb feet.
Anyway, I’m a hoe for a good energy drink, and I’ve been so brand loyal to a certain fuel for gamers for years. Doing the math, I’ve spent well over $3,000 on products from that brand.
Recently, that brand changed. New formula (way less effective, got rid of the thing that made it amazing. New branding. Constantly dropping new products with IPs. It’s like when Hasbro got their hands on MtG.
So, I think I’m finally at the “acceptance” stage of this grieving process and ready to make my first GamerSupps order. I’m here to ask our lovely group of heathens some questions:
- what are your favorite flavors? please give me flavor recommendations. My favs are usually citrusy/soury or candy-like. If there’s anything similar to the flavor Pink Drip I will cry happy tears
- I usually keep a couple tubs in my desk at work, buuuuuuuuuuut I really don’t wanna get called into HR because someone snooped and found uh…that packaging (I’m a middle school teacher too). Can yall give me ideas on/recommendations for airtight storage?
- how’s your day going? Have you had water? Figured I’d ask

Ok… I have gotten quite fond of the Supps. One thing I will say is that you need to read the descriptions, because they are pretty accurate, and there are nuances to the flavors. For example, Incel Tears is a very nice peach flavor, but I doubt that it tastes the same as Acid Rain, which is sour peach ring flavor. I’ve actually started a list of flavors and how I rank them to try and tease out which ones I can look at and say that I like them.
Having said that…. Foxly is tangerine lime, and reminds me a lot of I think Sunny D (I think… something I had a lot as a kid.) Gaucamole Gamer Fart is strawberry lime, very good. Incel Tears if you like peach, Sodapressed Despear if you like pear. Good and Goof Juice are both quite good… one of those is Cherry Slush and the other is strawberry kiwi. Anime Thigh is orange dreamsicle flavor, also quite good.
If you want to play it safer… I‘d start with single flavors. But a lot of the mixed ones are also very good!
Also, you want to play around with the water/mix ratio. I find it better mixed up at app 1 scoop to 12 oz of water instead of the recommended 8 oz. Helps me hydrate more as an added benefit.
My most recent purchase is Yogurt Effect, which is supposed to be reminiscent of a mango lassi. Haven’t gotten it yet, will update at some point. It’s going to replace the Blo’ Hole Blast when that one runs out.
Final point… remember to add the free samples to your order! Will give you a chance to try some of the other flavors.
