Well the best way I was killed was most definately my fault. In Sidewinder I'm quite predictable. If I get respawned inside the my base I usually go straight to the sniper rifle, take a little safety look with the sniper scope and go through the teleport and grab the rocket launcher on the ledge.

One of my enemies must have seen me and thought he'd teach me a lesson. Rather than firing (with his rocket launcher) at me as I run up the ladders he ran outside and carefully fired a timed judge shot at the area near the rocket launcher. I grabbed the sniper rifle, did the little safety look beforehand (not seeing the rocket mind you) and ran through the teleport. As I reached the other end I ran towards the rocket launcher and just as I picked it up I was blown up and my body went skywards!

I only really found out this full story once I asked the player who killed me. It was probably true as he is known by everyone in our group of Halo system link players as 'The Rocket Judge'. Mainly because he is really good at knowing when to send a rocket on its flight to a long distance destination.

I can't think of a particular example right now, but the best times I've died is when I've been caught totally unaware and it startled me and caused me to jump LOL. The reason I say that is the best is because that is pretty rare hehe.

Multiplayer:Damnation:Slayer. I was being all sneaky and such, then he dropped down behind me, and busted two sniper rifle caps in my back. Kudos to his stealthiness!

I know this one guy that can pistol me from half a map away on BG. But the most impressive (or accidental) was a major 8 player game and I respawned right as a blasted hog landed right at teh spawn spot so I died instantly. Another was when I was in a hog and some guy launched a rocket going nowhere , and for some freak of nature I turned right into it. BTW good idea for a post.

well..i was playin blood gulch some slayer..i was on the base lookin through my sniper scope and i saw a guy pretty far back..like, on that big hill near the cave and the rocket launcher...and he launches a rocket at me! so i move, and it blows up. he fires another one, and i move but a little later.

so im like "this guy doesnt have any sense! he'll just stand there firing rockets ALL DAY!" so i decide to have a little fun. he fires, and i move just in time. now, im gettin a little cocky. on his last shot..BOOM!

killed by my cockyness..

or, i saw a guy at the teleporter waitin for someone to go through to kill em, so i tried to teach him a lesson, unaware of the fact that he was holding a pistol for no reason..warp! switch to rocket launcher! BLOWS ME UP!

One time in Damnation a grenade blew me off the little walkways in the waterfall area, and you know its really misty there and impossible to see anything? Well my friend saw me fall and took aim with his sniper rifle sending a round through my skull without even being able to see me!
I also have a slight medical condition where I get chest pains, small non-lethal heart attacks feels like real bad heartburn, well one of my friends hit me on the back of the head and I was so startled I had one of my heart attacks and had to stop playing! I came back and got revenge later though!

It's no big deal to be sniped while playing halo, its part of the game. You expect your opponets to be steathly and get you when you least expect it. Usually they are on foot, or when you don't have motion trackers in a warthog or ghost. But i have to give hats off to my my friend. We were playing BG and it was all good. I was sniping from a rock. Killing everything that moved at blue base. In 8 person halo that happened alot. We had motion trackers so i could see someone sneaking up behing me on foot or in a warthog or ghost. i always got the sneaky little guy who tried. However, my friend tried it in a tank. Motion tracker and all he got behing me and says Ryvan, look behind you. i do and i look right down the barrel of a tank. Next thing i saw was my face splattered on the ground. hats off to you atabu.

Probably my best kill on someone would be a rocket aimed at the white stallion (aka, the white cliff on blood gulge), I was behind the far base with the rocket launcher. I saw someone driving a warthog towards the cliff. KNowing that a number of my friends jump off the cliff with the hog, i aimed a little out and down of the cliff and fired. I then switched to sniper and followed the rocket. Sure enough the driver drovbe the hog off the clifff, when he had just gotten off the cliff the rocket hit the underside of the hog and sent the driver and hog in an evil death spin. Pretty awesome from half way across the map.

The only time I've been killed out of a hog in the single player missions.
I was playing assault on the control room on legendary, coop, and I charge the dropship at the top of the tunnel exit (you know right after the chamber?) and the ghost charge me, one flips off my windshield, and the other gets blown apart by my buddie in a tank. And I'm thinking the hard parts over. So i go to work on the grunts, and i'm running them over because marines cant aim worth -blam!- and one throws a grenade right as a run him over and sticks the bottom of my hog.

slayer in battle creek...

i was playin one-on-four (i was the one), and it was the four best players that come to my LAN Parties, so i was gettin my buttox handed to me. They were up by thirteen points, so they all decided to get needlers and surround me. I sorta saw what they were planing, so i decided to walk through the center of the field with my handy-dandy rocket launcher (figure one suicide for a killtacular is a good trade). Next thing I know, [color=pink]80 needles[/color] are headed my way, so i drop my controller, stand up, and say "enjoy the show". Turns out that most of the needles were already stuck to me when i dropped the controller, and when the thing hit the ground i threw off a plasma grenade and fired the rocket. My spartan actually exploded like 5x way above the map, and a few people were saying "ooo" and "ahh"!

One of the coolest kills I have gotten was on Blood Gulch CTF, we were playing with hogs only and infinite grenades over XBC. Well there was an enemy sitting on our warp meleeing us as we popped out and he got his first kill like that on me, so I respawned, look out to the warp and see he is still there sitting on it so I got next to the teleport but to the side of it, stuck a plasma grenade on my self and hopped through. *BOOOM* Haha he started using cursive (no not the handwriting) and called me a hacker, n00b, other names and quit the game. :\

well this one time, we were playing hangem high, no sheids, plasma weapons, slayer, 4 guys, teams. For the last kill of the game (50) the guy threw a plasma nade over one of the pillars and I spawned behind it. So he said that he threw it and saw me run around the pillar with a plasma sticking to my face. I wouldn't know what happend because I spawned and All i could see was the warm glowing fuz of death on my HUD. Props Drew, Props.

One time as I was waiting for my teammate to get into the hog I was driving, my opponent lobbed a grenade over the cliffs on sidewinder, from the red base straight to the blue base, and stuck the grenade to the rear whell of the hog. I proceeded to unstring my shoelaces and hang myself.

Right, that's my strategy for the next time that I come into that situation. Usually I just drive upto him in a warthog and run his sorry butt over. But your way has to be the ultimate in teaching someone a lesson. Bet he thought twice before pulling a stunt like that! lol

Sorry to bump this up but I really want to find out the best way people have been killed. Good enough that people will actually admit and say "Well Done. I'll Give you that one".

Was it me you were versing? I always do that to my friends. Anyway, my bro. just jumped in front of me, I saw him coming, however, and was putting pistol lead into him. He jumped threw a plasma grenade right below himself on purpose. Guess where it lands. On my face. I just had to stare at him in disbelief.

I was driving a ghost and was shooting at my friend. Instead of running him over I decided to be stylish and jump out and melee him. I jumped out and was about to melee him when BAM! He gets a point blank headshot.
