This is fact. It cannot be contended.
Edit - I can't believe how many butthurt Strikers are out there. The post was meant as a half joke but now that I see all the posts trying to say that blinking and using Thorn are more cheap I am convinced these people I talked about in the title have no idea how lame they are.
Let me explain a bit why the blinking and Thorn arguments are less valid. Thorn is a hand cannon which means that despite the poison ability, it still requires more precision aim to hit something with a single bullet versus a whiff of grapeshot. You also can't one-shot someone with Thorn, unlike a shotgun.
Blinking, to those who only use Titans and don't realise this, actually requires aim and timing. Unless there is a perk I am unaware of, there is no homing blink. It is actually the most complicated means of traversal in the entire game. Learning to blink shotty, while cheap, at least requires the skill to blink properly so you're not jumping at the ceiling or something. It is still scrub since it uses a shotgun but again, requires mastery of the hardest platforming skill in the game so it seems less scrubby to me.
Also, Fist of Havoc requires zero aim unless you're using the superman dive and that still requires minimal aiming, roughly the aiming skill of a nova bomb.
Furthermore, although Shoulder Charge can be used as a means of platforming, the main use is for offensive purposes and it can do damage in and of itself. It is impossible to physically hurt someone using Blink alone.
Viking Funeral can be considered cheap...but how can it cause physical damage in and of itself? Oh wait, it can't. You can't panic kill someone with VF or Blade Dance or Golden Gun. Literally the only two panic kill supers are Nova Bomb and Fist of Havok. But a Warlock with Nova Bomb and Blink and a Shotgun still is less scrub because of the reasons mentioned above: Blink takes at least some skill and can't cause damage versus Shoulder Charge that can.
So Strikers with shotguns have the move set and loadout that requires the least aim, least skill, has more offensive options and allows panic supers.
Seriously. I do not understand how people do not see how it allows the most scrub kills in the entire game. Yes, you CAN be a Striker with skill and get plenty of kills not using these methods and when I am killed by a Striker who uses a primary weapon or who uses FoH to take out more than one person I have no complaints. That usually doesn't happen though.

Tips for scrubs. 1. Don't get close enough for them to kill you with it. 2. Fight or flight instinct is important. 3. No one cares if hate shotguns. They're a buck shot spread, close quarters combat weapon and they're gonna kill you 1 shot (most of the time) 4. Again, don't get close enough to be killed by them.

5 AntwortenBearbeitet von DatNeon: 8/5/2015 12:06:06 PMFirst of all, your argument about shotguns being more "scrubby" then thorn is irrelevant, thorn is a primary, shotguns are secondaries, but shotguns are annoying, so whatever. That nonsense about shoulder charge is also pretty stupid, shoulder charge is an ability we have to take up a perk tree for. Blade dancers can use blink and still use hungering blade, which is in the column that Titans have to give up if they want shoulder charge. Plus, there's one big difference here. No matter how much more difficult it is to use blink than (shoulder charge? I just realized that's what you were arguing... Shoulder charge is a melee ability, blink is a jump, that doesn't even compare.) but even so, the major difference here is that during blink, you [b]cant take damage[/b]. I've been killed mid shoulder charge plenty of times, but I've never been killed while using blink. And then about FoH. Do you realize how close you have to get for FoH to be affective? If Titans had blink, they could just blink in close [b][i]while taking no damage[/i][/b] and smash people, but they don't. And don't even argue the panic thing. So what? Hunters and warlocks have the best panic button in the game! Blink! And don't try and argue with that, anyone with thumbs is capable of blinking backwards, it's the easiest way to dodge anything, and you don't have to have your super ready to use it!

Thorn does not take that much accuracy to be good with lol. Complaining about shotguns? A. They're getting nerfed. B. Use a sniper and don't suck. It takes all of about 2 minutes to figure out blink, and that jump definitely needs a rework because it's broken as hell. If you can't kill a titan before he gets close to you, then you need to GIT GUD SCRUB

5 AntwortenI Have a maxed Titan but rarely play him They have no homing grenade No blink No ranged super I know they have shoulder charge but still I don't remember the last time that killed me. They can panic super but so can voidwalkers. I see no issue with Titans. In fact they're underpowered for Pvp if anything. Blink shotgun thorn bladedancers with hungering blade and QuickDraw however

13 AntwortenWouldn't call it cheap. Just because shoulder charge is easily counterable (coming from someone who did a 2 hour stream using it and my super only and almost won every match) and is very inconsistent in games with latency problems.

Bearbeitet von choon doonga: 8/5/2015 11:26:44 AMShoulder charge you don't disappear, you can actually get killed during the animation, very easily. Blink you teleport, close the distance faster than most people can react and adjust to, and survive direct hits from shotguns and rockets during your animation, just because you were thinking about blinking again. It's like having a titan smash/nova bomb/blade dancer invulnerability anytime you want. Keep button mashing away and claim that it's skill, though. :P

3 AntwortenTitans need shoulder charge since their melee is basically a t-Rex trying to box

In my eyes a blinking thorn user and a shotgun shoulder charge user both warrant a tea bag.
