    Moab against dying soldier and mark of j.


    How is that impressive when he doesn't even bother trying to cap a flag and they go on to lose?

    His team of randoms are clearly getting shanked by a really good party... trying to cap on his own would be pointless... its far more impressive than 99% of moabs which are gotten in a party vs really ****ty players... where they don't even have to worry about capping flags or playing objective since the other team are so bad and probably can't even get out of their spawn.

    so yeah... if any MOAB's are impressive, this would be one.

    Fair enough. I just don't see how it's very good when he's not playing to the objective :confused:

    It's not even a hugely skilful MOAB. Credit where it's due




    ...just not here. Nothing special in that one.

    That's not impressive. If you kill 4 people on a flag, any non-dickhead would cap the flag. Also lol at 'strong players'.


    Impressive would be capping 2 flags then defending them largely on his own, he wasn't playing tdm FFS.

    Why is that funny ? Because they don't play competitive CoD "LOL"?

    You don't get 25 kills in a row against strong players. Competitive, public, anything.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,127 ✭✭✭✭Leeg17


    ..... that's a ridiculous statement, of course you can.


  • Posts: 12,836 [Deleted User]


    You don't....the players quite frankly aren't strong if they're letting somebody get 25 gun kills in a row against them.

    I play against 'strong' players and teams a lot more than most and it just doesn't happen.

    There's video evidence right there. Could be luck but I doubt I'd be able to get one against a team like that

    There are loads of moments in that video where he gets 3/4 kills at times when the opposition aren't even looking at him after he kills their team-mates, they look awful.

    Maybe you're not 'strong' enough? :p

    Look, just because you can't/have not gotten 25 kills doesn't mean to say it can't happen, it's a bit of a fleeting statement. The standard can vary wildly in comp from what I've heard and quite frankly there's a good number of people on here who solely play pub that I'd say could hold their own quite well in comp.

    Having played against strong, organised teams for years, I can tell you now that getting 3 kills in a short space of time is a 'big moment'. 25 just doesn't happen.
    You can't tell at all whether somebody's going to be doing well in comp from their public play. I actually know what I'm talking about when it comes to comp and 'strong players' but again on boards, this is another topic where logic goes out the window.

    You've just said that the standard can vary wildly in comp (the very worst teams are ones who have recently made the move from publics, all have big kds, w/ls etc and get dicked on), even against those bad teams I've not seen anyone get killstreaks that high, and even if they did it wouldn't prove your point right as the players they're against aren't 'strong'.

    How are the players he is playing against not strong?, also i dont think you realize that he is 9v9 ground war so its abit easier to get a 25 killstreak if you play smart

    If thats 9v9 then I apologise. 3 good players may not get a chance to kill him in 9v9.

    Moab against dying soldier and mark of j.


    Now I know ppl here are saying he doesnt play the objective while getting this and I am also someone who values playing the objective,but even still consider who hes playing against here.MarkofJ won that COD commentators showdown last year between the top guys on youtube so hes obviously a very skillful player.Dyingsoldoer is a beast too.I remember seeing a vid of his playing ffa on nuketown-he won the game within 80 seconds or something ridiculous like that.Anyone who can get a moab against these guys should feel proud of themselves in my opinion.I know I would.

    Pretty much sums up everyone's prejudiced responses to my posts ^

    Wind your neck in would you. Just having the banter, like you supposedly were elsewhere in this forum.

    You know my opinions on most things pub v comp related stuff already Adam so I rather not go there again so not to derail this thread. I'll just say, I recommend re-reading your posts from a different perspective if possible before going out about prejudice responses. You might then understand what people are getting at then. Not the first time I've said this to yourself anyway be it on Skype or here(?).

    As for the vid, fair play to the kid. Not playing the objective as such does take the shine off of it somewhat in my eyes. I'm not going to lie. But still, against markofj it's impressive nonetheless.

    I think a lot of the maps look better after a MOAB :o

    Ze younger bro has 4 MOAB's in a dozen games this weekend after a 3 month break from the game (or any game) and one was with a PM9 or whatever the Uzi is called. Other guns were MP5, UMP and L86 LSW running support and achieved it solo bar for the LMG.

    Prat :pac: Was half tempted to post this in the megabitch thread :p

    I tried the PM9 seriously this weekend and cried myself to sleep. I'm really liking the UMP now though and don't think it's half bad otherwise that's an impressive list of MOABs.
    The UMP comment is not a criticism I have none myself :)
