hey i was just in mm and was playing double team. My team one because not only was the other team terrible but one member left the game early. So we won 30-5 on his host. Sure we had more people but we were spread out so the other player kept saying we sucked and he was better even though most of our kills were noscopes. So he tells us to play 1v1. so i do. I join his party on his host again and its smg starts with map defalt weapons so he uses sword only. and when you did kill him he got nub combo and played cheap and unfair. So i start a party. Br starts and rifles on map. after i get 2 kills on him he leaves and tells me to join his party and he has his bs 1v1 again so he could nub out. After all of this i was just wondering what the rules actualy were for 1v1. I have also found rifles on warlcok is very fair and shows true skill since its br and carbine only. So what exactly is the true 1v1(MLG style or your own.) thanks.

I think Lockout would be better, lots of cover and ways to out maneuver the enemy

lockout or midship i think

Warlock with carbine starts and human weapons on the map are the mlg settings and by far the most balanced 1 vs 1 settings.

i played a lvl 40 like that. score was 15-9 me loosing, then lockout 15-4 he had snipes so ya i agree warlock is more fair for all around than lockout. but why carbine starts?

Lockout used to be one of my favorites, but it definitely isn't the most fair. I would have to say Warlock or Midship, depending on the settings.

This is a RETICULE, and that is a RETICLE. I'm using the latter to aim. And what are you using?

Lockout. Even if your opponent has the best weapons, you can still outsmart him.

Lockout, Midship, or Warlock.

On Lockout, even if the other guy gets the sniper, you can still take him out.
On Midship, the plasma grenades scattered throughout the map make it possible to flush out campers.
Warlock is symetrical -nuff said. I never thought of having it Carbine start though, I'll have to try that out.

P.S. Why can't this board be populated with more constructive threads like this one? Meaningful discussion for the win!

Lockout is fun for assassinating nubs. Even if it is 1v1

HALO<3

definatly warlock its the true test of skill with rifle starts but lockout is more fun though. and i just hate those people who make smg 1v1's on stupid maps like desolation i lose to some lvl 26 15-0 because he made smg starts and just kept getting rockets

Midship, IMO.

There are plenty of weapons to go around (BR + Sword, BR + Shotgun, BR + PP), no one person can camp the high ground (I.E. Warlock, although sometimes both spawn on high ground), and it's symmetrical, meaning that it will be based more on skill then where you are in the map.

Plus, there are no completely safe spots for one person to camp the whole match with power weapons.

Warlock or Gemini, all the others are too in control of the weapons on the map. Gemini has a sword, but you have Carbines, Beam Rifles and Brute Shots to counter them. Midship and Lockout doesn't. Backwash isn't considered good(but I like it).

not to dis lockout or midship because i believe that there both fun to play 1v1 on but on lockout its all sniper control and camping sniper or br tower. and for midship camp p2 or gain some hight advantage and youll out br or carbine your opponent every time "if your good =p". as for warlock though it is the most symetrical map and truly shows that you are better than the other, even if one spawn traps, they must be at least a good if not exellent player to achieve that

I agree, actually I only like Warlock 1V1. At all other times I hate that map.
