Ever get a feeling that certains reds are out to hunt you? Like an Ao Jun that extends beyond return and flies over 3 blues to come right at you, or you duking it out and get blind sided by the same guy coming across the map. 「whiskey tango foxtrot」 dude? Did I kill your first bot or something lol?

Personal vendettas is not the only reason.
If you are good, reds will single you out as a priority target. Good, cuz they will pay dearly for ignoring you.
Also, sometimes I just pick one guy on an enemy team as my primary target to see if I can empty his hangar. This is sometimes random, or sometimes it is to teach someone in a clan a lesson about the difference between skills and doing well because you have all your homeys to back you up. They remember my name after that.

Would be fun if you schooled him again using your same bot that wrecked his.

I think it's the name... like a mosquito going to the zapper. I've changed title so many times I've blown a lot of Au on just that. This last one I've kept though...

Just yeserday, I stomped a Blitz with my Scourge Ao Guang, and said player proceeded to target me with his Hydra bot. Gave me a good chuckle.

I tend to find myself singling out annoying bots like hydra spectre, spiral GI or flux gekko's other than that I don't pass any reds up

If I see a single red name often in the kill messages I might decide and try to bot him out. Otherwise we can hardly win.
I also often focus my clanmates when they are on the other side.
I always focus a lone Fear, SYK or similar clan player from the start (I assume they are high on a threat list).
I might go way out to kill a disco painted Ao Jun. Because I'm lame.

Would be fun if you schooled him again using your same bot that wrecked his. been there, done that. ? been on both sides of that coin. on a serious note, it gets pretty demoralizing for them as well as me, when I’ve dropped their third vendetta bot with my same bot. All in all though, these days I just say to myself, “man, you really gotta stop walking in front of a bus.” Now that I think about it, thats probably the same logic behind why I tend not to drop anymore than three robots against a full clan squad. If they want to steamroll us randoms, spawn raid, instead of trying to make the game fun for us then some lost silver they will achieve.

Good topic. Today, I accidently dropped my second hangar into the battlefield. I use my second hangar to build and upgrade my future plans. So, robots and weapons are low level in the second hangar and without pilot. I was in my Ares hussar/ marquees, and I started shooting at an Ao Jun that used his flight for reaching to the first beacon. I took half of his health with level 7 hussars and level 6 marqueses. I didn't use the ability because he was over 500 meters. ASA his ability was available he came directly towards me, he didn't even have SB on his AoJun. Then I used Quantum Radar and ability to take him down in mid-air. I'm definitely going to upgrade my hussars and marqueses.

I've been targeted many a time. Had a Pursuer bee line me in a strider right past 2 blues. I died, he died in the crossfire.
I don't target one particular person only sorcery bots and tish chickens. I also make it a personal challenge to take down that lazer pointer or nori zenit. Surprisingly they still exist.

Reasons I will prioritize you over other players:
1) If I see you creeping in the general direction of a blue beacon.
2) If you're in a meta bot I want to take you out while your ability is recharging.
3) If your health is low.
4) If I see you attacking a teammate. Not only to support him but also an attacking red is often focused on his target and won't see me coming.

Phantoms and Blitz have a personal grudge against my Loki. I started learning to take advantage of that hatred and lure them into doing stupid things, most often I lure them into a group of my allies, and watch in glee as they get torn to shreds. How dare they target my lil' sneaky boi.

Also my leech has adamant road hog, I love to chase Loki with it, hey, it’s the Loki’s fault for turning beacons red. Shotgun builds need no quantum radar

How dare they target my lil' sneaky boi. I don't think it's a grudge so much as them knowing they are one of the few bots that can kill you without Quantum Radar and that you will flip a ton of beacons if they don't take the time to deal with you. I often hunt Lokis in my Invader for this reason.

TFalcons do not like me when I'm on my Fenrir. So yesterday, this TFal had a chance to cap the beacon or go 1v1 with me. I shot at him to lock him, stopped firing. He got loosed, kept going to beacon. Fired a few more times, locked him again after cool down.
Guy turned around like "That's it im tired of your...". Didn't cap the beacon and basically did a "come at me bro" charge at me. Killed him and his silly Ares...
But I do notice they make a beeline straight to me. Its like they hate not being the badest tough guy on the field.

Sometimes I fly my au jun past other targets to go for a camper. Then attack but run out of flight time. I can't stand when he's almost dead and I have to turn around to see safety. So I just stay, land, finish my kill and get waxed by his friends. Oh well at least I had my fun and take some satisfaction in killing that flux firing chicken bot.

We need to come at me bro thread where if we see any Forum members in a game, we go at it throughout the game.
Like post your username and rank and those on the link are battle buddies. Winner post they won the 1v1 with username and let it be posted. That would be fun...no prizes, just grudges!!
Whale or not...

I was definitely specifically going after long-range Nats shooting 800-1100 ranged weapons at my Raven today. It was me challenging myself to see how fast I could get into firing range and how much health I could strip off with my RDBs. (The answers: fast, and lots)

Did I kill your first bot or something lol? I was using a strider with calamity and gusts once, killed some guy had a leo with ancile aphid on dead city, first 45 seconds and his bot is sitting on the ground. He got pissed and came after me with an ares. I got him to use his ability, I used PS and got just barely out of his reach in cover diring the PS. He trys to hide realising his mistake, I dash over to him as his shield drops, and I get REAL personal. Drop his health to about 1/3 and he leaves the match! Pissed him off that much! I lost my bot because I was laughing to hard to continue playing lol. Silly man thinking he could kill my strider! Not today!

You know you are good when you can outskill a red for an embarrass kill, then KNOWING he is watching you for that split second aftermath while he asks himself..?whiskey tango foxtrot? just happened?!?.... do a little troll jig then watch him make a beeline for you in his Ao Jun....wait for him...and do him dirty again...or die trying.
It’s these game within the game moments that keep things fresh. Done this too many times to count in my Rogs and Striders.
Before the church comes crashing down on me for being unsportsmanlike, know that I only do this because I worship Satan and drink the blood of baby goats

Did I kill your first bot or something lol? I am the target of every game. Today I had the honor of multiple players using ares buster technology on my fujin. Why? I hurt their feelers when I bug zappered their princess bots. This is in addition to the typical and constant 3 Ao Jun fly overs I suffer all game every game. You just get used to it. If your using a distinctive hangar like I am. And your good with it. They will target you. Frankly I don’t blame them. Considering half my hangar is dedicated one shotting ares / Ao Jun / leech etc out of princess sparkles. I’d shoot me too.

Hydra spammers deserve to die ASAP. If my primary bot is low on health and there is a camper I can get to I'll do a suicide run and take him with me. Often the same person will come after me as I shred bot after bot with my twin avengers.
