Congrats Lute, glad you prevailed in this one, seriously......
this last Friday KOTH.......which was full of crackshot HO artist might I add.......
I was in a fight with this new person ( new to me anyways had never seen him before) we will refer to him as "popcorn".......well from the get go this guy had the smack down, always I did this because I am better atitude....
during the turn fight he comes in with advantage, I quickly reverse it on him and started gaining angles, he breaks off and runs, calmly telling me over vox, I was gaining on you and could have shot you down but I extended, well his extending was because he did not have the ability to manuever for angles, so he extends and yep you guessed it, revs for the HO train..does this for about 6 extends/HO merges...avoiding them are easy most times, but some of these people practice nothing but the HO tactic, or 90% of the time practice this, I took an oil hit then a pilot wound...all because he could have kilt me in the manuevering but decided to break off and reverse for 6+ HO attempts......
then another HO artist, one that has caught alot of flack lately on this board comes in, does the quick pull trigger HO, pull trigger HO, routine and yep I was rusty shot down in flames again..........well I throw out my idolized & quoted "WTG HO Boy" congrats to him to just make him ill thinking I was mad or sumtin, I admire how much these profound ACES of THE HO Sky, have practiced so hard to make this tactic work for them
it truly made this last KOTH an unique experience, not in a good way either....
where 4 of the rounds won if not more were from these self proclaimed HO artist.........here's to you the almighty HO Boys WTG ~S~
