That looked pretty easy for u. Hoping you were in a fair league.
Some matches go like that.... real good or real bad.
If i had max everything I'd look awesome too... so utubers who haven't paid for the stuff don't impress me. Same as those who hack or those who tank down to lower leagues

If i had max everything I'd look awesome too... so utubers who haven't paid for the stuff don't impress me. Same as those who hack or those who tank down to lower leagues You’d be surprised. That ability to look awesome and not awesome match to match does NOT charge regardless of how much you invest. You just face people with similar levels of gear and ability. I have max everything and regularly look not awesome  edit: another piece to this is J.u.n.k.M.a.l.e. played that sonic Khepri to near perfection: patience on the sonic reload and not pwew pwewing once it was fully unloaded; always looking for a blue to bond to as soon as the ability was approaching ready; finding what little cover was available while waiting for ability or sonic reload. Go back and watch. His ability to be awesome in that Khepri was carefully honed and executed pilot skills combined with good gear, not the maxed gear alone. As I said, I have maxed gear and can’t often bring it to that level of competence with regularity. |

Same as those who hack or those who tank down to lower leagues Junkmale is NOT supported by Pixonic, his YT is like many of ours here. We post there for friends and to have an easy link to drop here in the forums. shawngonakillyou can tell you, I can look uber with my lil gears.  I also get my face bashed in too.  What's that you say? Oh... I seem to have lost that recording or the thing is on the fritz. I do however have a fresh shiny recording of my gloating over the enemies rusty hulks!  |

Go back and watch....i did watch, and i commented. I realize those comments touch on some poor gameplay practices, not necessarily those of Junkmale, Other than it looked easy... and it did.
We all have good and bad matches, which i also stated....i guess my point was that its easy to have those dominating games if you cheat.
Pc players cheat alot ... so when a player doesn't miss a shot or doesn't take damage or a match looks that easy...i'm gonna question it. Most matches if you hang in centre like that your gonna take some shots...luck maybee.. sure... i just watched manni on youtube exploiting a bug for unlimited mothership strikes, so ... im pessimistic today i suppose.
I tried to be careful to not make accusations, and i did allude to it seemed like a mis-match for whatever reason.
Junkmale... if i offended... i apologize...
Tbh even if peeps do tank and cheat...i can't blame them ...pixo gives an unfair playing field and each will seek to fill the gap in their own way. Meaning if pixo cheats and allows cheats, then cheating is ok.
Its not a moral thing....its a fact thing....
I appreciate the differnt point of views.

I appreciate the differnt point of views. ….and that type of ownership will make you a great forum member. We are all owners of our opinions from what I’ve seen and never afraid to be called out by others here. Well said, and yup - I’m often a skeptic first, admirer second. We get the matches we are dealt and as you state, some matchups make us look godlike and the game will tell us as much  . Other matches we are making others look godlike. I’ve also had games where the completion was fierce and I still had a great game - in the zone type matches. Based on his history I’d think it was a mix on that video. The cheating is very real too and a constant frustration. I have cheated exactly once in this game when a Revenant “respawned” as invincible. I would normally have popped my bot and grabbed the next. But there was a hacker on the red side and I think his cheat created the artifact that I benefitted from. I went on a killing spree on the hacker with my own inadvertent hack. It was honestly so satisfying. He revenge charged me the first time, and I killed that bot while living on my invincible sliver of health. He tried to avoid me after that, but I just kept hunting him down. |

Typhon Johnny No offense here—watching it back I might draw the same conclusions! The thing that would make me suspicious is the low damage vs. high kills, only possible if you’re facing a lot of robots on the flimsy side. FWIW, I don’t tank and I lose a whole lot running solo queues:  Still, looking at the scoreboard? It DOES look a little sus. I’ve had 7, 8, 9 million damage (edit: I mean w/ healing included, natch) games where I didn’t break 10 kills. CHN is a top clan but I didn’t recognize most of the others. Very strong possibility that this game had a lot of Master-level players in it and it threw a Champion red and a Champion blue in to fill the squads. I think part of the reason I got away with so much was that even if many of the reds knew the map and knew where I was recharging or waiting, they very possibly didn’t want to find me, at least after the first four or five kills. A logical strategy would be to avoid the bad man and focus beacons where he isn’t, leaving me to kind of… float around and blow stuff up.

I didn’t record it so you’ll need to just trust me but I had a triple living legend in my bendy paralysis Khepri this morning. I ws much more patient in my play than usual, taking some cues from J.u.n.k.M.a.l.e. video. Competition was all low level champs/high masters, so not scrubs, but not the legends league I often get stuck with. Khepri is a brutal bot when built well and well deserving of the nerf hammer. I love playing it for the synergy side, so it’ll still be there post nerf for me. |
