Orange Team v. Red Team @ Lockout, Team Slayer

Recorded by RelentlessRecusant

Introduction
"Ryan! How are we going to win? They have all the power weapons!"

- Relentless70

"We'll kill them four more times."

- Ryanngreenday



"Okayyy..."

- Relentless70

See this game in detail on Bungie.net

Orange Team:

Relentless70 (RelentlessRecusant) - Not very relentless King of Swords Ryanngreenday (Ryanngreenday) - The nonchalant killer

Red Team:

star wars fan94 (Darth Tater) - Sticky masta birdlane32 (non-Halopedian) - Battle Rifle whore

Overall tone of the game: Relentlessly rocking...

Orange Team takes Sniper Tower
The close quarters action of Lockout inevitably led to the presiding of the Energy Sword as the key factor to dominance. There were also other power chips: plasma grenade (one-stick kills) and the sniper rifle (used to annihilate enemies from the Sniper Tower).

First blood was scored when Ryan secured the sniper rifle, perched on the platform, scoping 'round to find perpetrators. His bane came when Red Team fired a Battle Rifle at him, except not at him: behind him. There was Ryan, hitting the zoom button to find where the report came from when the fuel cells behind him ignited and immolated him in fire. 1-0 Red.

After Relentless took the snipe tower once again and Ryan rejoined him, Red decided to (suicidally) charge the snipe tower, learning pain from Relentless's newly acquired sword. Ryan also redeemed himself from his dismal first death, racking up a Double Kill with a handy-dandy Battle Rifle attained from the lift-tower. A few attack waves occured, in which one Tater charged the snipe tower, somehow uber-pwned Ryan, and as Relentless leapt up with the sword...squarely stuck Relentless.

To quote Tater:

"The Empire strikes back!"

- Darth Tater, alluding to Star Wars Episode V

However, Orange recovered, beating the helluva outta Red at the bloodied, contested grounds of the snipe tower, and Red learned quickly not to continue charging, and withdrew to the BR tower. Relentless and Ryan (hey, they both start with an "R"!) insouciantly trashed Orange, that is, until Birdlane got ahold of the BR...

"The Two Towers"
The game soon became "The Two Towers" (no, not the LOTR film). Birdlane's prodigous skill with the BR and Tater's penchant for grenade bombing from afar drove back Relentless, who was desperately trying to snipe out Red Team from the snipe tower, but was unable to, admist the hail of flying shrapnel from frags and Birdlane's continual salvo of bullets from the BR Tower. This playing around continued for awhile, but eventually, progress was made. Relentless sniped out Birdlane, was in turn somehow killed by Tater, etc...but the War of the Two Towers remained.

However, soon, Relentless's glorious skills (hey, Ryan, stop kicking me! owow!) Okay, I mean, ahem...Relentless's and Ryan's joint skills, broke the back of the Red Team, which osmotically dispersed from the top floor of the BR tower to the labyrinth of subterranean tunnels of Lockout. Relentless advised going Tom Clancy tactical (i.e. sitting on his @$$ and waiting for Red to come to the tower), but Ryan insisted on killing the usurpers, and forced Relentless outta his comfy perch at the snipe tower to play a game of cat-and-mouse.

Bad idea.

Ryan was too relentless (haha), and got Orange Team pinned in the bottom room of the BR Tower. Now, Birdlane and Tater had the upper hand, and from their santcum on the second floor of the BR Tower, only had to chuck down a flurry of 'nades down the stairs and the one-way hole interconnecting the two rooms.

Red Takes the Upper Hand
This became agitating, until Relentless broke out with da sword. Birdlane was impaled, subsequently died, and Relentless rounded the corner into the second floor room to find...a plasma grenade stuck to his helmet! -BHAM!- and Tater claimed the sword. Then, the unopposed wizard of stickies took a walk and slew Ryan in the third floor room with his newfound toy.

It was then that Orange belatedly Red had the sword - a problem for Orange Team. A large problem. A titanic one. A gargantuan one. An immense one. A stupendifying one. A tactically intractable situation for Orange Team, to be precise. Thus began Tater's incredible 7-kill spree. A few minor firefights (or more precisely, swordkills) later, this was exacerbated when Birdlane got his hands on the sniper, while Tater still possessed the sword. While Ryan charged like a zealous dog, intercepting sniper rounds like an amoeboid in the process, eventually, Relentless convinced him to play it tactical. Or just for a moment.

Under Relentless's micromanagement skills, Orange Team slunk out of the bottom floor passageways that had caused so more dolor for both Ryan and Relentless, and then with utmost precision, flanked Red Team, which was holed up in the BR tower, on the top floor... Ryan steadfastly advanced from the left ramp, passing by the superjump location, while Relentless un-relentlessly came from the ramp from the library room.

Ryan sneakily attacked Birdlane, thinking that his mad close-range SMG skillz could own Birdlane's noscoping skills with the sniper, just to find that Birdlane had the sword and Tater had the sniper.

There was a bloody epiphany for Ryan as Birdlane lunged and stabbed him to hell, leaving Relentless sneaking up on an unaware Tater. When Relentless commenced to deluge the hapless sniper with SMG slugs, the Sith Lord swiveled in circles, unable to bring about his sniper's reticule on Relentless, and was unilaterally owned by a sole SMG (UBER-PWNAGE!). However, when Tater respawned and Red Team surged from the second floor of the BR tower, pwning Relentless, his small victory was gone.

Finale
At the end, things got bloody and close-cut. Orange Team held the sniper tower, and pathetically defended it from Tater, who, armed with his sword, slaughtered both Ryan and Relentless. However, Orange Team ascended to glory as Orange respawned, and launched a small guerilla war - SMGs vs. power weapons, eventually crazily and incredibly claiming the lives of Tater and Birdlane in the end. Relentless scored the last kill on the top floor of the BR Tower on Birdlane, concluding the game at 18 minutes and 12 seconds.

50 - 41, Orange Team Wins
