Funny Things that Happened

Something that happened to me was quite fun. I was in a match and me and an enemy Mellka were fighting but we were extremely close to my base. (I was Miko, so she would have won if we were not near my base.) Both of us were almost dead and just kinda… Staring at each other, we both were to afraid to continue fighting I guess. So I decided to taunt, and she taunted back at me and then we had a BADASS taunt battle!

Then OM came and shot me in the back, party pooper. I made it out alive though, and taunted when an ally of mine did about all damage on OM and I stole the kill. ;D

A Reyna and a Phoebe were capturing the 2 thralls camp in Incursion mode, I decided that as a Shayne&Aurox I would try and go steal the camp on my own.

Phoebe wasn’t having it, she sprung towards me trying to kill me, I got some damage in, retreated a bit while both of them stood in the contract circle thing and Reyna threw up her ultimate, I think I managed to get my Tag-Team Ultimate into the bubble causing them to flee from the circle, I then stealthed into the circle to fulfill the contract while they weren’t around.

After I got out of Stealth Phoebe saw what I had done and charged at me and I killed her with a Fetch + Melee/Boomerangs and then stomped out the Reyna as well.

I’ve never had another game like that where I was fighting with 2 other enemies on a 1 v 2 to capture a location. It was very fun, rewarding, and hilarious.

I did the exact same thing I thought I was out of range of the turrets but nope I got hammered by bullets and died to which I say to myself I deserve that.

#13

Ah, I sent someone flying outside the map as Miko as well. It was at a thrall camp IIRC?
that move actually made laugh someone that was watching waiting for respawn. Went with a “LOL MIKO” on the chat :stuck_out_tongue: .
(I’m not sure that this intended that we can send peoples flying over that ledge at that place though. )

I noticed that oscar mike are often party pooper. Those clones are probably too dumb to read the mood ;p

I just remembered a time when I was playing Gal and for whatever reason I found myself up in the air and flying towards the enemy sentry. I decided **** it and charged in with my shield toss to take out as much of the sentry as I could. I ended up taking out the shield and… maybe 14 damage to the sentry? I still don’t know why I went flying. It’s happened a couple of times on a few characters, only in Incursion.

Anyoner knows about Miko’s sticky spore bomb mutation?
That spore bomb is HUGE, and the fun thing is… It sticks to allies.

Was in mission once, but someone was afk and we needed to stand on those pads so we couldn’t continue. I think it was only me, my sister and a random Montana. So I threw the sticky bomb towards him and it got stuck on his knee. Looked pretty funny, yet Montana did not notice it. So after the cooldown, I threw one on his other and he looked down and realised he had those things on his knees.

I could almost see the reaction of the player, he was looking down, running and jumping around. XD Was really funny.

I also threw one of those things on an ally Rath once, it hit his chest. And the spore thingy was so huge, it actually looked like Rath was wearing upper body armour. He looked derpy af.
(Maybe I have a screenshot of it…)

My very first exposure to the game was a PvE with Thorn. I wandered what that move with the bow was that she was doing every minute or two. Then I realized I was pressing “G” by mistake all the time.

#17

hah here something funny

#18

I wish I had been recording when this happened, but during an Incursion match I had an enemy Benedict jump off the cliff near the Thrall camp very, very slowly. He double jumped backwards from me to create some distance, but he created too much distance and Benedict tends to drift slowly towards the ground. By the time he figured out what he did there was no time to fix it and I just watched him go below the lip of the cliff seemingly in slow motion.

This is all i have at the moment but shows 3 more funny moments

So I was chatting with some people in Void’s Edge, and at the last gate, I told them that I thought with 5 players, you could send two up (which had been a big problem; every time we sent someone up, they’d go down once or twice, burning lives needlessly). So we get there, and everyone is so excited that we could send two up that we forget to protect Wolf. Oops.

And another time, I was playing as Ambra on Meltdown, and our opponents had Galilea. I could tell this Gali was going for the “Frenemies” lore, cuz whenever she saw me, she’d chase me no matter who else was there. So naturally, my team takes advantage of this, I lure her into a trap with Rath and Ghalt a total of 4 times in one game. I got the kill the final time, only a few seconds before the win. The last thing she saw before victory was me taunting her, it was beautiful.

You know those peoples you meet regularly in matches, that push like crazy alone, apparently thinking they can handle the 5 opponents + the sentry and the minions all by themselves?
I’ve seen soo many montana do that for example lol. The funniest here is that sometimes it actually worked with my support as a healer. Got some Montana actually saving the day by downing the sentry in one crazy and kamikaze attack, that I supported as healer without believing it could save a game we were completely losing.
Well,
One time I had 3 of my teammates completely reckless (Montana, Thorn and oscar mike), pushing like crazy on overgrowth map. They were all on the side of the map (in the building allowing you to see the sentry from inside), right from the start, and always going back here and pushing like crazy.
Didn’t have one second I could stop healing as they were taking so much damage from everything. Lost some of them several time but… It actually ended up in a completely one sided match after a while. It WORKED lol. They probably don’t know how many times I almost had a heart attack at how fast their health bar were going low at the same time! And it lasted sooo long without working too! That completely felt like the longest game ever (even though it was actually short in the end) due to how much craziness was going on.

I hope they don’t do that every game because most healers will just let them die lol xD. And they won’t have a 5th player taking on him to do everything else (thrall camp, turrets, minions reachign the base and so on) during that time either lol. that was funny though, never healed as much in such a short time during the beta than in that game. Never remained so long in that building on the opponent side without retreating either, by far. I think it lasted like 5 minutes without me settinga foot outside that small building.

Either way, that was crazy to see that. Thorn tanking sentry missiles again and again and not stopping even if dying. Who were those three anyway ? that’s a mystery, as they didn’t say a word from start to finish. But the word “retreat” wasn’t in their dictionary, that’s for sure. After the sentry went down, I was like "you peoples… can you give your healer a break, please ? Just, like, 5 seconds? No? ok, how about 3 seconds? ". Most exhausting game EVER. But this remains as a good memory nonetheless. x)

So the most funniest thing that happened to me was when I went to Meltdown. I was playing as Caldarius and when I was jumping around I landed on one of those staircases that are next to one of the buildable stinger turrets. So anyway I landed and out of nowhere I died I was confused until I looked at what killed me and it was Marquis ult that killed me I realized that there was someone else right below me he shot at him missed and the blast killed me instead. It was the funniest thing to me because it was just so random that I laughed out loud at it.

I always hated taunts, especially when it was a 1vX or you were killed by someone for the last 200 HP after a duel. A taunt by someone 100-0 me, fine, you earned it. The others just feel childish.

[quote=“F34RLEzZ, post:5, topic:1367741”]This video. A couple of friends and I were dominating this team and were near their base. We found this marquis and we were about to kill him. Then I melee’d him into my friend playing Ghalt, we decided to all just Melee him to death before I was like “PUSH HIM OFF”. The Galilea ended up with the kill, and taunted him.[/quote]My friend managed that against a Phoebe (IIRC), but the player instead congratulated him for the ejection.

Me, a Boldur, and my friends a Gal and Isic.
We were in the enemy bunker and just trying our best to take some shots on sentry, when our OM and Ambra came in the three of us formed a connected shield wall, completely blocking the bunker entrance with our shields.

Our OM and Ambra were able to fire over my head as the enemy melee jerks fell futilly on us, swinging helplessly as their back line unloaded clip after clip into us. It was just fantastic holding the line, felt like we were in 300!

Haha, taunts are okay. Usually I’m the one kicking ass, so when someone taunts me I’m just meh about it, and I might taunt them back next time I kill them.

If I really outplay someone, I’ll taunt, but that’s usually it.

I always taunt when I get a Eins Zwei Drei with Marquis. Just feels appropriate

#28

It might feel childish, but there’s just something awesome about someone taunting you, just to get themselves killed by one of your nearby teammates in the middle of the taunt

One time I was dueling someone as Thorn at level 1 and we were both so low, and I lost, but I had put a Blight field down before I died.

Dude is standing in my blight field when he killed me and he decided to taunt. I just get to watch him die on my screen as I get the kill, lol.
