Subject: How do you assassinate like a pro?

my friend is a complete pro assassin and gets like 13 assassinations each game. All he says is that he jumps over them and hits their back but it is so difficult. do you have any tips to assassinate like a pro?

He's either lying or he plays against teams of AFKers every game.

It's not too hard to ninja. People in this game are -blam!- stupid and love to blindly chase around corners. All I do is go around a corner, wait until I see their red dot move into the right position, then jump backwards while looking down and hit the melee button.

Just takes a little practice, easy when you know how.

Easiest way:
1) Lure someone into chasing you
2) Go up an incline, look down and wait
3) When he's near enough, jump backwards and melee the back
4) Get yoinked.. Fuuuuuuu-

Do not play halo much anymore. Barely ever come on here.

It's fairly easy if you have 10 sensitivity and you have someone running straight for you. Of course, I almost have an unfair advantage of 3G internet and it's lag, but it works both ways. I've show-stopped people assassinating me by punching them before they do it, and I've had the same happen to me too.

EDIT; Derp, forgot. Just jump over them, turn around in mid-air, and punch before you land.

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

Assassinating is for retards.

Forget it man, and get with the countdown. Shake this square world and blast off for Kicksville.

One's perception of "really good" is often relative.

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

You're not "pro" unless you've chosen it as a profession...which would be rather sad. Unless you're in MLG...those lucky bastards get paid to play.

good players never fall for the ninja.

I like to find a group of crappy players sometimes though and just jump right over their head while sprinting toward them.
If your sensitivity is on ten it's pretty easy to spin and assasssinate.
or ninja, wut evs.

again, good players... will usually just kill you.

I actually use rb to melee...

only really works on crappy players.
In every montage where there are ass/ninja involved.... people never spin around and counter, never hit back really, or just run right at an opponent facing the other way.

granted a few are cool but most of the time it's randoms being random.

Although I don't member where but I saw a montage where a guy was countering ninja's, with ninja's and it was awesome.

People would try to assassinate or sneak up and it was like he had eyes in the back of his head. Not just the jump backwards in the air thing either. I'm talking full on walking on their faces!

thats cool. Ive seen those too.

  • 11.06.2011 3:42 PM PDT

Usually I'll just crouch around the corner and grab the last person that passes me so that I dont get hit from behind by someone else. I don't have the patience to do that often though. Oh and I go for air Assassinations whenever possible.

  • 11.06.2011 3:53 PM PDT

Your presence here is quite unneeded. Begone you!!!

Do it to snipers. They always have awareness fail
