Not really sure what that means.


Lol it's a joke. I suck dick with handcannons. I'd use the TLW if I could get a kill with it.

Trials it is, then. Speaking of which, here is that 45 team kill game.

LINK

Disclaimer: Mystery thinks he wasn't himself, but his "terrible" play is still better than most.

ETA: It really bothers me that I missed those two self-res snipes.



1st of all I have zero recollection of this game. Like none at all. When you talked about it in passing the other day, I still had no idea what you were talking about. Thought you meant you had 45 in a standard game solo. That should tell you a bit about my state. Couple notes.


1. I count 46 not 45.

2. Ummm yes, I was terrible, first 4 rounds I was rushing in like a chicken with my head cut off. That first FOH was so off, I could have just shot that guy in the back.

3. I find it hilarious that I was wearing pink.

4. Thank the Lord you didn't have our mics on in the video.

Hah, just making sure you weren't saying that it's a no skill gun. Some people choose to believe that. It's very hard to use now. I'm actually better with my Nirwen's when you compare just those two, but as you could see, I snipe a lot and TLW is better for me so I have something for up close against shotguns. That's pretty much the case with all three of us. Although, Totes is becoming a damn good shotgunner.

TLW


It had the most percentage of kills of every primary in the game this weekend according to Destiny Trials Report.

I was trying to use my Mida and it was good, but not great. Not the best map for it unfortunately.

Holds onto his tether the entire match.


Finally fires it at no one.

Was it? I didn't even count, I just thought I remembered someone saying 45. I'll edit.

Just one of the many factors that makes that my favorite Trials run that we've done. Random teabagging, The Weekend in the background, and the f-bombs were also part of that.

Good lord. I wish I did, just so I could listen again. I would have kept that out of the shared video, though.

You mean the two dead sunsingers? I thought it was a great play, actually. He waited to use his res until it was gone, but it was already too late because I was able to get your revive.

Edited for poor choice of wording that looked like a sexual innuendo.

The map definitely played a big role in that. I didn't play two weeks ago on Widow's Court, but I would bet that pulses dominated the kill percentages on that one. The patch was also this week, too. People spent months using TLW, Thorn, or Hawkmoon in year 1, so everyone is probably trying to get back to it now since Thorn is gone and Hawkmoon just took a big hit.

Edit: saw you said primary but see below.

If you look at the stats in more detail you would see that it ranked like this in weapon type.

1. Sniper around 26%
2. Shotgun around 24%
3. Pulse Rifle around 14%
4. Hand Cannon around 10%
5. Auto rifle around 7.4%
The others are too low to care.

Now take into account that there are like 6 really good pulse rifles to choose from and only a couple of hand cannons. That is why TLW was used more than any one pulse rifle.

Still pulse rifle was the most kills for a primary. They just have more options so it balances more with each one.

By the way, what was that Mudaro guy, or whatever his name is, run with when you played with him? To be that good, I imagine he can do it all, but I was just curious as to what he typically runs with.

Him and the other guy I played with ran with TLW and Conspiracy theory. When we were loading in I asked if they were going to snipe or what and they said rushing and shotgunning was their strong suit.

The key words that make that so successful are "they" and "their". If you have at least two people on your team that are effective with that, you are set.

Im just kidding. I'm guilty of hanging onto my one for way too long, too. I tend to use it defensively instead of offensively.

Mudaro


Does not snipe at all. He has like 170 total snipes.

Like half of his kills are shotty.

That's definitely how I approach it. I tend to save it for their supers. The one golden gun they got in that match was already weak, so I thought I could get him, but TLW took a while to fire.

I don't see it ever taking over as my long term primary, but I just want to get this and try it out so bad.

Anyways those numbers are a huge improvement.
This is how primaries looked from Year 2 trials until the patch.

8.21% Nirwen's Mercy
7.55% Red Death
3.53% Hawksaw
3.43% Zhalo Supercell
3.41% Smite of Merain
3.24% Hawkmoon
2.91% Bad Juju
2.70% No Time to Explain
2.01% The Jade Rabbit
1.40% The Last Word

Pulse rifles were getting kills at over a 2 times rate then all other primaries combined.

I have been having it. It is not that great. It is pointless for somebody who uses a sniper. Shoots so slow.

It is just like I told you guys in year one, when beef wanted a Hawkmoon so bad. You won't care once you get it.
