Don't pop it in front of enemies. Pop it around corners.

You serious?

For Gunslinger, yes. But that's because you have the strongest super in the game. You can one shot any opposing player not matter what they're doing and that includes mid-animation for their super.

Bladedance has skip grenades which are a bitch and then you can wear Shinobu's Vow to give you two of the bastards with better tracking.

And don't even get me started on Wombo Combo for Nightstalkers.

I dunno about that man, maybe if you get hit with a shotgun while popping blade dancer you will die, but I've definitely put more than one ineffectual shotgun blast into a blade dancer before

I have definitely shut down Bladedances with full health with a shotgun/melee, but it's required my actual melee to be charged to do it and for my shotgun to pretty much hit right in the face or middle of the stomach. No from the side or anything.


The worst thing you can do with a blade is panic pop it. It's not an overpowering super in any regard. In 3v3's you can wipe out an entire team if you time it right, but I typically use it as a way to get the other team to back off If I have to pick up a res or something.

Do you even Hammer bro? Golden gun gets three shots, 4 if you have the helmet. How many Hammers can get thrown? It is no more powerful than the hammers, just a little more accurate.

Yea, but without Shinobu's Vow, they are pretty worthless. I've stuck somebody with it and it didn't kill them. The actual bladedance lasts all of about 5 seconds too. That is my biggest gripe about it. Its timer goes way too fast, even with the extender.

I've shut down and been shut down by a single shotgun blast with full health. No other character has that been able to happen.

Yep, timing is critical for it.

I wombo combo the frick outta people

I find the hunter/nightstalker to be the best for 3v3 and pretty damn un-ideal for anything else. The super sucks for PvP, so I think I'm going to get that artifact that gives you an extra grenade and melee and just say frick the tether for pvp.

Hammer bros are so freaking easy to team shot after the health nerf awhile back.

In addition, hammers take time to travel. All a gunslinger needs is LOS. It's hitscan so as long as the gun is pointed there, it's a kill. There is no travel time, unlike hammers. GG can also shoot across the map and kill someone immediately.

Ride the hammer bro dick all you want, but a decent GG player will pop his super, peak around a corner for a split second and have a sunbreaker down before he can even throw a hammer.

Sure, you can counter everything in the game. I'm not saying you are invincible as a hammer bro. 1v1 you aren't going to kill a hammer bro though unless you have another super (ETA or heavy). That isn't necessarily the case with gunslinger or bladedancer. The AOE on those hammers is still absurd.

I just love playing the hunter because of Bones and shotgunning.

You'd be shocked how often tether has come in handy as well against Stormcallers in ToO.

Or, you can just use it to piledrive into people's skulls like Luminosity did to me this past weekend

Shadestep. He's the best shadestepper in the entire game.

That was the second time I had played him, we beat him the first time, but he was double carrying. He had Tkiriella with him this past weekend and we lost 5-2. As you can see. I panicked and choked

I've never seen a shadestep like that. It always rolls and and go briefly invisible. How do you do it like that?

He's pressed the buttons to trigger the animation, but then pops his super before it can complete so it triggers the tether pose.

More than anything it's to make me do exactly what I did. just bait me into thinking it's a gun fight and that he isn't going to use it there.

You see, that's something I probably would have never thought to do

Sun breaker is my secondary PvP character and I find better luck in running double fusion grenade, then using simmering flames so they come back 10-15 seconds sooner and only use hammers if I can get a vertical advantage over 2-3+ players. Titan is probably the easiest of the 3 for me to use with hunter being the most frustrating.
