Suicide is now the best way to counter Spectral Blades
No joke, my buddy has a 5 year old son who is fascinated by Destiny. He was running crucible the other day, popped his Spectral Blades, and handed the controller to his son. Little dude got 3 kills just mashing away at the buttons. Skill-based pvp, lol? Currently, there exists no counter to Spectral Blades. None.
If you're ahead on points, best option is to just suicide yourself to preserve the win.

So when they nerf it are you going to go back to complaining about how OP Arkstrider is?? Or will it be Golden Gun or tether next time around? Asking for a friend...

You haven’t played this game in 3 months. You have a 0.7 kd in crucible. Even if you did play, you’d need to run from everything to enjoy crucible.

Literally every super in the game can counter spectral blades - though some do it better than others

30 RepliesLet’s take a look at your comp score... Not worth sharing how to beat spectrals because you won’t even know how to do it anyways.

16 RepliesSupers have never been skilled based. They are there to get easy kills just like heavy! I’m not defending Spectral Blades because they are annoying but let’s face it no super takes skill. Hammers you don’t even need to hit someone because the splash damage will kill them. Sentinel shield you don’t even need line of sight because of the ricochet and aggressive homing. Smash no aiming at all. Dawnblade has homing projectiles. Same with Nova bomb. Novawarp no aim again. Stormcaller again no aim. Tether plant it and see which muppets run into it. Bladebarrage no need to explain. Arcstrider mash the trigger. The only 2 exceptions are top tree Dawnblade and Goodengun. Because at least with them you need to aim. People might think their favourite supers take skill but in reality they don’t.

those 3 players are ass cheeks if that really happened to them

I love how all these responses suggest there is only one spectral on a team at a time. After I 'counter' your blade with my nova bomb... oh joy look another... and another .... and another... The super is a joke especially when there is ALWAYS more than 1. I have NEVER faced 4 or 6 warlocks. I have faced 4 Titans maybe twice in D2 but NEVER 6. I have faced 4 Hunters EVERYDAY (all Spectral blades) and have even faced 6 hunters (not all spectral but pure aids none the less).

1 ReplyCan’t die to it in a raid or strike or on patrol.

Melee supers should be adjusted so they're low health, high risk. What i mean by that is Shotguns should be a serious threat to you at close range, currently you can sponge multiple shots and insta-kill everyone in a room with a quick spam of the trigger. Melee supers should require the user to actually think before running into a room full of enemies, to plan their attack instead of walking into a room and killing everyone then travelling to their spawn and killing them again.

5 Replieshow much skill does any super take? if you had skill you wouldn't be crying that spectral blades killed you. just like most supers counter with yours, its not that hard.
-
That aligns perfectly with how much I wanna kill myself everytime I see a Spectral Blades Hunter. I dig it.

3 RepliesSuicide is the only option to avoid any super. They’re running rampant right now. Way too many ways to extend duration, regain health, way too much armor, way too many being popped per person per game and way too easy to use. The middle third of any game where everyone has supers is the most aggravatingly unfun part of all crucible games. It’s literally spawn kill after spawn kill of supers

5 RepliesEdited by Kiro - 13: 4/10/2019 11:20:37 PMThe nerf is long over due. PvP meta is spectral blade hunter & shoulder charge titan or GTFO. Till then exploiting it in conjunction with Gwisin Vest. Sorry warlocks for not having maximum pvp potential/optimal skill sets. Just like how blade barrage hunters are kings of Mayhem or how titans are highly un-preferred for reckoning. Bungie has this awesome brick wall I have heard that you can speak to about these balance issues to. It is located right next to the Whisper of the Worm reserves nerf( which was needed but 9 was to harsh, 12 seemed reasonable). & permanent account bans for using Razer and Logitech peripherals.... that you cant contest.
-
Or you could either counter with your own superior team shot. It’s not all that difficult.

2 RepliesHmmm I kill spectrals like nothing 3 tap in the head and a shotty shot and they dead :) maybe stop complaining so they don’t mess up the game more they already nerfed everything so let’s nerf spectral blades then after that is trash let’s nerf bottom tree smash right ?

2 RepliesI play hunter, void top tree. One hunter pops his blades? I tether the biatch. I also use tractor cannon. Hide by crouching in a corner and then "SURPRISSEEE MOTHA-blam!-A" and boop them hunter blades biatches. "Not today byatch, not TODAY" is my motto.

...heard the sound go off in comp, last person alive and they already won anyway....i just jumped of the edge
-
This is true for every super !!!!
-
I always jump off the edge if I see anyone with a super. I like denying the kill and also hope if its has minor auto tracking so they go off the ledge with me.
