Edit: eh nvm about that. I'm stupid.
[quote]Edit: I'm on YouTube! I'm featured in Hush's latest Palindrome review, in which he insults me for using Cocytus SR4 and Plan C in Rift on Last Exit.[/quote]
I'm gonna be that guy...
On that video, I'm pretty sure that Hush wasn't insulting your weapon choice, but your playing style (in that moment).
You looked as if you were playing really passive, crouching, scoping down the hallway, and throwing grenades (which is understandable since you were running a low rof scout).
I think what made him (Hush) salty is that everyone seems to play very passively now in crucible: always beginning engagements with grenades, never committing to gunfights and running away; it can be frustrating to deal with in large amounts.
While you were justified in playing like that, he associated that kind of behavior with you and got salty when you territorially killed him.
And don't we all get rage sometimes (especially against passive people? some people pair passive play with "camping")? Unless you're blindingly positive, it can happen to the best of us. When something stupid happens, the way someone plays, other people's weapon choice, etc., we all can at least let out some expression of irritation. We're all human.
The point is, I think [i]that's[/i] why he raged like that, and not because you were using those weapons. Iirc, he actually likes fusions, and I'm sure we can all agree that they're one of the farthest weapons from the meta atm (Plan C, second to Salad's Vigil, is kinda meta in terms of fusions tho).
Btw, congrats if you find that (getting a YouTuber mad) a win. I wish I could (somewhat) say the same when I played against Aztecross, but he ended up getting a triple on me with the Burning Eye scout in the stupidest way on my part, so yeah lol

Edited by Hawpy: 5/6/2017 1:15:37 AMYou deserve a large thank you for being a reasonable person who has provided me with an alternative opinion and presented it in a way that doesn't insult me or my choices. You're the real MVP. In hindsight, that remark was made after a salt-fuelled discussion with a friend of mine who was in that same match (who caused Hush to stop midway through a sentence by killing him with, believe it or not, The Branded Lord).
