today, I had yet another bunch of rainmaker matches with good ol'
@VeryButter, on Moray Towers.
some things happened that I thought were pretty sick:
1) I'm just wandering around, and all of a sudden I'm splattered by a sniper on the ledge right before mid. (the last drop between Spawn and the mid-ground. you know that one, right?) so, I take a look at him and suddenly realise he's using a scope: all he can see is the mid.
So, sneaking past that laser to make sure he doesn't see me, I went on the little ramp, inked the wall, and swam up right next to him. I stood there for a few secs, waiting to see if he's noticed, then back-stabbed him when he didn't flinch.
obviously, the guy gets real ticked off, and decided to just charge straight back to that ledge, with no-one to back him up. not the best of decisions, especially when I'm rocking a .52 gal with a Splash wall ready.
so, he just charges straight at me, doesn't even try to hide....and then gets murdered by my Splash wall.
7 times over! eventually, he decides to bring the
entire team straight to me, and they, too, get wiped out. we won by a long shot.
2) another match, we're carrying the rainmaker, and only
@VeryButter remains. I Super Jump to her, then realise too late that she's been surrounded: I'm dead meat. so, in a desperate attempt to get a trade, I throw out a splash wall...and kill the enemies.
no, not just one enemy.
four enemies.
the entire team was standing there like sitting ducks! and they were up against
one team member!
seriously, other team: how do you mess that up?
3) this was on port mackerel, which I wasn't too familiar with. match starts, and I grab the rainmaker. I got someone else to back me up, thinking nothing of it.
turns out, that person was
awesome at their job. they splat anyone and everyone who dares come near me, and we won, by knockout, in about 20 seconds. the enemy team didn't even get a chance.
yes, they were an S+ ranker. go figure.
4) so,
@VeryButter has the rainmaker, and we're heading for the goal, surrounded. I'm backing her up, and all of a sudden I'm taken out by someone behind me.
So, I'm just standing at spawn, thinking, "It's all over now. she's a B- rank, they're A's. no contest." and then, for some reason, my eyes are drawn to the map on the gamepad. I saw a small line of our ink, surrounded by enemy ink. it went closer and closer to goal, and then....
all over. we win by knockout.
Kudos to
@VeryButter for this; you rocked those matches. I managed to rank up at the end of the day, and it's all thanks to you!
and for the record, let me say this: I'm
never judging someone based off their rank
ever again.
