It was my old one 2LpL and 3 MpL. 340 std.(But for this fight i didnt have money for second Lpl, so had only one )
Pulled this one on my first match tonight. Low damage, high kill-count --- gotcha covered! Basic Ember build, never stops being OP.
8's my best. Surprisingly it's in my first Open Beta 'Mech that I purchased: the Gauss kitty(Closed beta was an Awesome-8Q, lol). The funny part is that this was right after the Gauss charging "nerf." My kills are legit, and this was a PUG drop. My team was spreading damage badly, so I was shooting to kill with every shot I fired. No components targeted; just Head, CT, or ST if it was an XL build. Two of those kills were headshots. As you can see, the one other player that did noticeable damage only harmed 6 enemy 'Mechs. No hate, but IMO that's way too much damage for only 6 targets. That's enough to kill 6 targets and have assists on top of it.
Key point: Rush, face hug, aim for torso or the most damage part. This is my new build, waiting for SRM fix Lpl, 2 med and 3srm4, std340
Ow nooooooooooooooo!!! No Weapons left in the end... and then got killed by the almost cored Stalker in the last 20seconds before ending the Match with a Draw... AARRGHH!!! .... and gone is my chance for a 9Kills Match..
I can generally pull 6+ kill matches about every other day if I sink more than a few hours in. I also mostly run ridiculous troll builds with MAXIMUM ALPHA! Two of my favorites - 1. Absolute trolling in a triple gauss ilya after a few months away from the game... 2. Similar to Solahma's story, in the 6xSRM6+A 1JJ frontloaded armor Splatcat days I watched my 8 man team run off into certain doom on Forest Colony Assault. I managed to jumpjet to an area that should have been out of bounds above the cave and powered down. While my team screamed profanities at me for not having joined the fight, I jumped down and cleaned the remaining 6 or 7 (can't remember) who had mostly paired off in 2 man teams and I swept in behind them down each lane heading to our base on the hill. I managed to take out 2x2 groups by popping one from behind, and the other in the chest before he could finish turning around and spotting my position for his team. After cleaning the remaining few off the base, I'd turned the entire match around from certain doom. Even got some apology PMs on the forums afterwards for all the crap they'd initially given me. Really wish I'd recorded that one.
Never underestimate the power of bacon. Also cheese sniping from the top border of HPG. I kind of wish I recorded, but then again I feel pretty dirty for this game. Doesn't help I dropped an arty and backstabbed the 5 damage champion atlas 2 minutes into the game... The end was a '7 v 1' technically but the only one who could reach me on my perch was a firestarter who I depants'd early into the match. He was promptly legged when he trekked up. While he was getting up to me, I finished a BJ I cored out just before my last ally died. I then proceeded to eat out 2 Jager side torsos, the hunch's hunch, a cored out TBR who's missing a ST, finish the hunch, then leg the last TBR trying to reach me (but was hopelessly lost looking for a ramp). The build, for those interested:
Got a 6 kill round just now...not bad, especially for someone who prefers lights vs assaults. Still, was a fun one If I hadn't overheated at the end, I would've gotten a 7th.
Finally unlocked the Ace of Spades achievement (it's not my first 8 kill game though, but the first on a long time). I actually was soooo close to a ninth kill, but I guess I need to work on my ammo management (and learn not to shoot at the wrong leg) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TI0PYO0TvA8 To be honest, the new solo queue really help with killing sprees.
Great run by Fierostetz too...I would love to have had a spectator mode available to watch that match from both perspectives. Looks like it was a good one.
