"It will not be we who reach Alpha Centauri, and the other nearby stars, it will be a species very like us, but with more of our strengths and fewer of our weaknesses, more confident, far-seeing, capable, and prudent. For all our failings, despite our limitations and fallibilities, we humans are capable of greatness."-Carl Sagan

Linda by far

I think Fred might beat Jun.

He was 2nd best at everything.

Until Jun does something as impressive as hanging from a rope with one hand whist holding a sniper in the other, sniping Elites out of Banshees from over a kilometer away, I'm going to say Linda.

I hope Blue Team are in this new trilogy. But Linda needs an Irish accent.

Evanna Lynch to play a young Linda in the upcoming Halo Potter. ;)

OT: This is not even a question, anyone with even a single brain cell knows Jun would be on the floor with his brain oozing out of his helmet before he could move.

Never will I be welcomed, amongst the heartless monsters you surround yourself with, feeding off the pain and misfortune of others, a maniacal breed of sub-human parasites, thrown into a feeding frenzy with the smell of fresh blood, open your eyes and see the creatures for what they are, a swirling mass of hatred and envy, and do not be naïve enough to think you are unaffected, the conversion has already begun.

Fred Wasn't Second best at everything. Read the quote in context.

  • 07.09.2011 7:54 PM PDT

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

Jun was a horrid sniper. Linda would win with a slingshot.

I second this.

"Haha... dont you know... Spartans never die"

Linda.
Jun wasn't that good of a sniper.
And as said above, we're still waiting to see Jun do a hanging upside down shot with one hand.

Gameplay =/= Canon

He may not be quite as good as Linda but he is certainly a good sniper. Probably better than Mark.

Don't know about Mark, we were never really told anything about his skills, except him being the best sniper in team saber.

Exactly, I'm not going by gameplay, but since we don't know enough about Jun's sniping abilities it would be unfair to match them up. I would like to point this out, just to stick my neck out for the underdog, yet again, Halsey did say that as a Spartan his skills as a sniper were unmatched in the A Spartan Will Rise: Vidoc. So that does go in his favor (but watch people be -blam!- hypocrites and say "no it doesn't count", even when they went behind my back and said Halsey's quote about John's luck counts in his favor. Biased trolls is what they are but anyway back to the topic at hand), but I won't vote since there isn't enough knowledge of his background.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

I'd just like to point out that Jun is called a "rifleman" by Carter, not a Sniper.

I think that "Sniper" is more of a colloquialism. I think Carter was just addressing him a little more officially, as a "good-bye".

It's just that Jun is always seen holding a DMR in cutscenes, he only holds a Sniper in Noble Actual and Nightfall (that I can recall).

Huh. I've never noticed. Since the VGA trailer he's just been "the Sniper".

Linda > Johnson.

I do personalized physiological analysis on Spartans, in the same format as the "Personnel" category retains.
Send me a short bio of your spartan including Rank, Name Date/place of birth and favorite weapons, vehicles, battle tendencies, and all around personality, and I'll compile a Evaluation of him/her.

Linda>guiltyspark>Johnson.
