    but at the end of the day...you tried to tell him he doesn't know how to suicide at point blank as the lerk correctly<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    I was just saying that you are bad at biting people if you collide with them.

    <!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->seriously..you think we haven't tried these things? if I can trade my shotgun for a dead lerk, I'll probably do it every single time...unless I know the lerk player is the worst on the team and I want him to stick with his useless pres investment flapping around. there's no notion of "building up spores" either..<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->



    Building up spores meaning after several passes around the base the smoke starts getting thick from the marine perspective.


    And I know the lerk sucks, but he's on his way and not as hopeless as people make it out to be which is why I made those examples.

    Give an example?

    Keep in mind this is a natural selection board so your answer may be detrimental to your argument.

    That's not arrogance, this is arrogance.

Lol. After I started playing the Lerk exclusively for a while to really get good at it I can tell you it's not so hopelessly useless as people keep trying to pass it off as since they don't want to put in the work to really get skilled at it. The extremely fast gameplay style is not for everyone and I hope they never change that aspect.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Fly next to someone? What are you attacking, the Titanic? You just gonna glide next to them while they shout about being king of the world? Jesus what servers are you playing on for you to think this actually works rofl.

    Ye, my anecdotal evidence of how the output damage of a level 1 shotgun is 90% of a lerks health. How anecdotal. I suppose you considered all of Math class anecdotal as well.

    Ye, go lerk, spend 5 minutes being useless, then be the final nail in the coffin. Meanwhile, everyone who didn't go Lerk saved for fade and actually won the game, while all you did is seal the deal.

    Hourly reminder that spikes being useless is the only thing potentially keeping lerks from being useful.

    I quite like the new Lerk spikes, actually. They're fun for pub play; too soon to say more.
