Subject: I like elite slayer more than regular slayer

I'm in love with Jesus and proud of it!

Title says it all. I prefer elite slayer to other game types. Doesn't matter if it's in rumble pit, team slayer or btb, I like it more. I tend to perform better as well (I only choose evade). Plus, I chose the General as my elite model. I love being the only one on the battlefield with a rhino horn, it's like the GUNGNIR of elites.

I remember when the game first came out everyone complained and said that all everyone did was spam needlers, AL and plasmas... which they did. Now, I see more players choosing elite gametypes at the matchmaking lobby, even if the other gametypes are on better maps.

So, am I the only one who's found that elite slayer has become not only more common in slayer gametypes, but also more enjoyable?

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

Me too.

I don't like GUNGNIR, it looks like a lunchbox.

I don't know, there is no elite slayer in MLG or Team Snipers.

Does the rate at which the elite slayer gametype is available depend on how much of the player population is choosing said gametype?

You know, supply and demand? Because for a while I didn't see a single elite slayer game for like 3 months.

I like it for 2 reasons:

1) You can play as an elite

2) It's crazy and hectic fun

Still do from my experience. Not a fan.

They took away a plasma grenade and made it so AL users no longer get a needler. I still see a bunch of players choosing AC to get a needler, but at least you can tag/sword lunge them and they can't AL. Besides, if you use evade you can dodge most of the needles. In my experience it's usually the bad players who choose that AA and weapon combo in ES.
