Best/funniest kill wasn't done by myself, however I died from it. This was on CoFR. We were on NS_origin, had a phase TF forward base in cargo. Aliens had 2 hives, we just lost biodome. While we were slowly getting heavies on our three nodes, aliens pushed on cargo to clear us out. Two HA's and one LA (me) were on the bottom bringing the elevator down so we could get to the phase. Suddenly, The_Spectre xenocides, pushing us all under the elevator which then crushes us. 3 marines, 2 of which are heavies, killed. Spec, of course didn't get the rfk, but he got props.
I knifed 2 onos on hera one time, back to back, they were trying to run away from holoroom after they had rushed in a messed it up a bit, but I was on my way there with no ammo, HA and a knife. Came around the corner, blocked their retreat, starting swining. The first one fell the 2nd didnt know what the holdup was, i came through the 1st' dead body and took it to the 2nd one.
I once killed 2 fades and 1 onos... with 3 bullets from my pistol... sure they were both pretty badly wounded, but it was cool as hell and saved our base.. which ultimately made us win the match <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Also, i welded 3 hives to death (beta 1.04) on ns_hera, everyone was yelling "GET HIM! GET HIM darnit!" while i was jetpacking around the map lol I also knifed 5 gorges in a row while the comm was spamming my Medpacks lol!
Hmm, in one 1.04 base siege (our base, kharaa everywhere) unloaded all my lmg and pistol ammo, then proceeded to knife two fades and an onos, before dieing.
Also, I took a lerk out of the air with a grenade one time, that was pretty cool
My most amazing kill as alien must be while using my new-found tactic that I wont reveal. I took out 5 marines as a skulk, and they weren't bad marines.

Just thought of another cool kill, I sneaked into the sewer hive on ns_caged and saw an egg, I was about to shoot but it evolved and was an onos then it went to an egg again to upgrade so then I shot it and killed the egg.

Mine was recently in a 3.0 playtest server, It was a combat game on angst. Anyway In the hive room a JPer was flying like mad when I accidently leaped and fastswitched to bite and managed to kill him. He must've been damaged because my focus bite killed him. (In combat you need a couple armor upgrades to get jetpacks) Anyway it all happend so fast I even managed a few "Nice"s from some welll known clan people around here.....felt good <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Well, I haven't played NS that much yet, but yeah, I've got some stories.
I've killed once 7 marines with one skulk life. Just rushed into their base with level 3 carapace on ns_eclipse. Everyone was humping the armory. I just crunched them.
Once on ns_tanith I sneaked up on 5 'rines that were going to waste. Came from behind, and took them all off. It felt good.
And when my friend was at my place, he got lucky. He had a shottie and he was doing some ramboing. Skulks rushed at him. He killed 15 in a row before died.
And umm... Well, once I crushed 4 'rine teammates under an elevator "accidentally". They were all HA guys. :)
In ns_eclipse, the 'rines were sieging the CC hive. They had a small base FULL of turrets and like 5 HA guys. I just leaped in middle of them as a skulk and managed to crunch 2 marines off before dying. And on the next life I crunched one more.
And finally, I love killing 'rines with cloak. It's so hilarious just to sneak right at his face while he's ducking, and chomp chomp, he's dead and wets his pants.
Killing a lerk in a cloud of spores with my knife. Had no help from other players on my team. Everyone couldnt stop laughing at that. <!--emo&::lerk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/lerk.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='lerk.gif'><!--endemo-->
In 1.04, i was at (well actually sitting in) the res node outside sate comms on tanith, and i heard a fade, had nothing but a lmg and pistol with a good amount of ammo. I then saw him come into the room from the hive entrance, and wasnt sure to leave him or not and get a phasegate... i decided to take a chance, as he went up the sloop i fired my 50 bullets into him back, he turned left to go back into the hive, proberly still wondering why his health suddenly went down and just as he dropped down i fired 2 pistol bullets into his back, and that mighty fade death sound played. Was well chuffed as taking a fade 1v1 was very rare in those days <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> and without taking any damage was awesome <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Edit: Also knifing two onos in a row, i was knifing one in the back then he died and another one was infront of him so i started on him even though about 4 marines were lmg'ing them was still cool as nearly all the aliens and marines saw it <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

Recently on ns_caged; I was at double as rines with a few teammates and we were getting a few skulk problems. I was out of ammo from previous fights, so I pulled out my knife and killed three skulks with it. Albeit I did pick up a stray med-pack and it wasn't one kill directly after another, but it was within the span of a minute. Eventually the comm answered my pleas for ammo, but I died soon after. =( Hooray for irony.
Not sure which map, it's the one with "Horseshoe"... We were just setting up 'Rine base, I was guarding. FAR across the MS (like a football field or so, loox like), I see this skulk come out of the vent and just hang there on the ceiling watching us- probably gearing up for parasite... hey, I would have.....
I could BARELY see him, but I carefully lined up my LMG, emptied it into him and finally he fell off the ceiling. I love long-range shots like this, there aren't enough spots on the normal maps to give good ones. Sometimes your quarry will just sit and spin, looking for the attacker, and then they're dead. Anyway like 3 'Rines saw me do this, and they typed "DAAaamn!" or similar.
Another thing, not so challenging but sneaky at least, is to lerk up on MS with Adren (it's possible if you're careful, on some (mostly custom) maps), and spike the CC to death. I guess the Comm figures his "base under attack" warning is a bug, and nobody will notice 'till it's too late. Chances are you can kill any welder-defenders anyway. I've done this twice successfully and one more ALMOST, from full CC health to Dead. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
As a side note, if the Lerk loses his spikes permanently, and I can't find enough 2.0 servers anymore once we've all got 3.0/Steam rammed up our collective... er, anyway, I won't be lerking ever again... so your CCs will be safe, humans. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
my best kill? probably when the whole marine base was being attacked by ono's and i was camping in a vent, from there i took out 2 ono's using lvl3 lmg and a skulk(then i ran out of ammo and got gassed by a lerk) we lost in the end... We only lost because of all those stupid n00blars who kept going "jp/hmg comm." Just a little note for anyone who reads this: the lmg is leet when its lvl 3, its enough to take down ono's and the best part of it, ITS FREE, u spawn with it, so kids, DONT FREAKING STAND AROUND THE CC ASKING FOR AN HMG, your lmg is good enough, why else would they have it? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
My favs are as follows: 5 HA train as last attempt to take a hive on hera. lots of nubs rines, me with a classic gl, the other 4 have a sg and 3 hmgs. aliens have sens and def. the skulks take out the four other ha and after trying to knife the cloacked skulsk all around me, before i die i pull out the gl and fire all 4 nades at my feet. i get 5 kills and SURVIVE. thats prolly my favorite.
as aliens, silence lerk on mineshaft, sewer hive is our last hive, it goes down, and im sitting hidden. i spike a ha before dieing from the attrition dmg from no hive. rines never knew where i was.
just today on tanith. im comm, really lazy rine team. should have won, had ha and lvl 3 wep 1 armor within 9 mins. end up forced to relo upper waste and still rines will not elave the protection of the armory. one alien is leaving but hes onos so he offers to let me knife him. while im knifing him another onos comes up but he cant get me cause im jumpin around this one and i knife both of them from full health. granted one let me but i got the other one trying to kill me too! funny ****. oh and in that same game i snuck out with a jp and sg and took down 6 skulks, 2 ono eggs, and almost got the hive without any meds or ammo packs before dieing to a fade when i got stuck on the wall. also funny as hell.
then theres the dozens of times hitting skulks/lerks/fades flying through the air leaping blinking etc with gl midair and taking them down. thats always great
and in a 5 on6 game i was comm on eclipse and a onos comes in and destroys my base before running to let me rebuild. i jumped out of chair and grabbed my hmg i dropped just before losing the armory and chased him down killing him. he was ****.
btw, im on dialup so the best ping i ever get is about 250. =)
We were being dominated by JPers, and as a result, we were losing (obviously) and we hadto hold our ground in the hive, which unfortuantely happened to be Engine Room.
So I go Gorge, since nobody was, to put down some OCs. Then bam, 5 JP marines from the vent fly in and start opening fire on the OCs. Later they were killed and were heading for the hive.
But later they spotted me, and went 'lololol a fatteh!' and soon they tried to kill me. But this was where it got stupid.
I killed them with spit. All 5 of them, no backup. And they were firing with their HMGs.
on NS_Nothing I was a Gorg and a Lerk dropped me in one of thoes cages in generator (when it worked) and then the rines invaded generator and I was healspraying them to death. They couldn't get me..
Then there was one time when I was in Port in ns_nancy I leaped into the vent and leap-killed a gimpy jp/hmg guy. That was pretty funny.
Knifed an Ono from full health while he had a rine in his belly Killed 3 man HA train as a skulk with aid from an Sc Killed 5 man Shottie LA train as skulk with aid from an Sc Leap killed an LA by accedent (so weak i feel it note worthy) Went head to head with a HA as a lerk in a vent, and my spikes beat his HMG
And the best kill i've ever seen (but sadly did not to myslef) was a well timed xeno that happend in the middle of a Beacon call- 7 kills in one attack
The most note worthy game i played was on a pub with appereantly no com. Marines are HA steam rolling through the hives, and in 5 minutes i rack up over 10 HA kills. aliens lose, but was very odd game.
Knifed an onos and welded another, in the same game <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
NS_Mineshaft, 2.01e, tournament mode. OK, I have JP/shotty, and I get an order to find out what's going on in Sewer (we had taken it earlier and set up a small turret farm) When I arrive, I find an onos attacking the TF. I open fire, and it goes over to the ramp and starts walking down. I fly up to the TF, it turns around and comes after me. After a while it dies, but not soon after two more onii come in. I try to use the same strat, but they get smart and get me stuck on the ramp. They made the mistake of both coming at me at once, and try to gore me as I fly up onto one of their backs and start unloading my shotty into it. the second Onos was trying to gore me, but ended up killing the guy I was on >XD I eventually got help, 3 HA/HMGs who shot down the other onos. Pure luck, because I was out of fuel and he was like 3 inches away from devour range <.<
A LONG time ago when I was onos, I kept paralizing a marine and he kept shooting at me (I had lvl 3 regen so it did not hurt mutch) with a lmg, eventually he stopped and just stared at me and I stared at him....then 10 seconds later I killed him, it was realllly funny
Coolest kill ever was in 1.04. I was skulk, 3 hives. Runnign around a corner I see 4 rines itting in a corner. I fall back. I regenerate a bit and rush around the corner, xeno activated. Then, all of a sudden, I realised 4 other rines coming around a corner, perhaps reinforcements <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->.

Then there was a CW with another clan, I was going Onos (6 minutes of game had passed) when a HA train of 5 rines with HMGs and SGs was coming to furnace hive. I was evolving in Bio, no MC there, yet. So I rushed to the hive per pedes, but while going there 2 gorges and 1 skulk killed ALL HAs! Well, HA rushing withour upgrades is fun. For the aliens <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
back in 1.04, in the port hive, i was in that vent that was opposite from the hive. i sat at the end with another clan mate. it was full of nubs, so they were ALL gesting on that platform thingy, right in front of my crosshair. we took turns shooting, reloading and flying back ocne we ran outta ammo. on one of my runs, i killed 8 enemies, not sure what they were though, since they all lined up on my crosshair trying to get in the vent <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

I had to reload, so I ran around the corner. Suddenly, the fade bliked around the corner and sttod in front of me, regenrating. I went WTH?!, pulled the knife out and killed him in 2 slashes. Suddenly, the lerk flew aroudn the corner, but flew against an edge and came closer to the ground. I kept slashing and was thinking "ROFL if this worx....." Suddenly, I hit him and he died. Riens and aliens went WTH h4x!!!!11, buit I just jumped around, happily, right into a WOL.

And Impy, I trust you. I know funny stuff happens with knives *points at above*
I remember two kills right now that really made me say "WOOOHOOO it's good to be me!"
One was in Veil: the rines were sieging the hell outta Pipeline, and their entire team was right around the corner, constantly fighting skulks and that one fade hammering them with acid.
I was a lerk and had just finished securing Nanogrid, when the sieges started singing.
For some weird twist of luck, the rines were all VERY low on health, so when i arrived and shot a ball of spores amidst them...........BAM! it was like lobbing a grenade! i made like six kills in one shot! omg!
Another kill was as a rine.......in the map.....aww i have little memory for map names.
Anyway we had relocated in athmospheric processing, and the base was taking a serious pounding from two bile-tossing gorges, an onos and a fade.
A buddy of mine managed to kill one gorge and repel the other, but got sliced by the Fade.
Then i spawned.
It happened in seconds: the comm handed me a shotty...and i BAM BAM BAM! three shots.
The first two killed the onos, and the third one creamed the fade.
Comments
I have killed a fade from full health with lerk support with only 10 pistol shots and the knife.
Best killing spree must have been 7 kills in a row outside marinespawn as a skulk with no uppgrades...
One memory from the 1.04 days is when I, as an onos on ns_nomblizkikko won by paralyzing JPers to a falling death...
sure they were both pretty badly wounded, but it was cool as hell and saved our base.. which ultimately made us win the match <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

As a side note, if the Lerk loses his spikes permanently, and I can't find enough 2.0 servers anymore once we've all got 3.0/Steam rammed up our collective... er, anyway, I won't be lerking ever again... so your CCs will be safe, humans. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

5 HA train as last attempt to take a hive on hera. lots of nubs rines, me with a classic gl, the other 4 have a sg and 3 hmgs. aliens have sens and def. the skulks take out the four other ha and after trying to knife the cloacked skulsk all around me, before i die i pull out the gl and fire all 4 nades at my feet. i get 5 kills and SURVIVE. thats prolly my favorite.
as aliens, silence lerk on mineshaft, sewer hive is our last hive, it goes down, and im sitting hidden. i spike a ha before dieing from the attrition dmg from no hive. rines never knew where i was.
just today on tanith. im comm, really lazy rine team. should have won, had ha and lvl 3 wep 1 armor within 9 mins. end up forced to relo upper waste and still rines will not elave the protection of the armory. one alien is leaving but hes onos so he offers to let me knife him. while im knifing him another onos comes up but he cant get me cause im jumpin around this one and i knife both of them from full health. granted one let me but i got the other one trying to kill me too! funny ****.
oh and in that same game i snuck out with a jp and sg and took down 6 skulks, 2 ono eggs, and almost got the hive without any meds or ammo packs before dieing to a fade when i got stuck on the wall. also funny as hell.
then theres the dozens of times hitting skulks/lerks/fades flying through the air leaping blinking etc with gl midair and taking them down. thats always great
and in a 5 on6 game i was comm on eclipse and a onos comes in and destroys my base before running to let me rebuild. i jumped out of chair and grabbed my hmg i dropped just before losing the armory and chased him down killing him. he was ****.
btw, im on dialup so the best ping i ever get is about 250. =)
It was 1.04, map was ns_bast.
We were being dominated by JPers, and as a result, we were losing (obviously) and we hadto hold our ground in the hive, which unfortuantely happened to be Engine Room.
So I go Gorge, since nobody was, to put down some OCs. Then bam, 5 JP marines from the vent fly in and start opening fire on the OCs. Later they were killed and were heading for the hive.
But later they spotted me, and went 'lololol a fatteh!' and soon they tried to kill me. But this was where it got stupid.
I killed them with spit. All 5 of them, no backup. And they were firing with their HMGs.
i was in the middle, and there was a lone marine running full tilt across, and i timed the drop perfectly (no leap, to keep it noiseless)
i chomped his head <i>perfect</i>, it was spectacular.
Then there was one time when I was in Port in ns_nancy I leaped into the vent and leap-killed a gimpy jp/hmg guy. That was pretty funny.
Knifed an Ono from full health while he had a rine in his belly
Killed 3 man HA train as a skulk with aid from an Sc
Killed 5 man Shottie LA train as skulk with aid from an Sc
Leap killed an LA by accedent (so weak i feel it note worthy)
Went head to head with a HA as a lerk in a vent, and my spikes beat his HMG
And the best kill i've ever seen (but sadly did not to myslef) was a well timed xeno that happend in the middle of a Beacon call-
7 kills in one attack
The most note worthy game i played was on a pub with appereantly no com. Marines are HA steam rolling through the hives, and in 5 minutes i rack up over 10 HA kills. aliens lose, but was very odd game.
OK, I have JP/shotty, and I get an order to find out what's going on in Sewer (we had taken it earlier and set up a small turret farm) When I arrive, I find an onos attacking the TF. I open fire, and it goes over to the ramp and starts walking down. I fly up to the TF, it turns around and comes after me. After a while it dies, but not soon after two more onii come in. I try to use the same strat, but they get smart and get me stuck on the ramp. They made the mistake of both coming at me at once, and try to gore me as I fly up onto one of their backs and start unloading my shotty into it. the second Onos was trying to gore me, but ended up killing the guy I was on >XD I eventually got help, 3 HA/HMGs who shot down the other onos. Pure luck, because I was out of fuel and he was like 3 inches away from devour range <.<
Then there was a CW with another clan, I was going Onos (6 minutes of game had passed) when a HA train of 5 rines with HMGs and SGs was coming to furnace hive. I was evolving in Bio, no MC there, yet. So I rushed to the hive per pedes, but while going there 2 gorges and 1 skulk killed ALL HAs! Well, HA rushing withour upgrades is fun. For the aliens <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
back in 1.04, in the port hive, i was in that vent that was opposite from the hive. i sat at the end with another clan mate. it was full of nubs, so they were ALL gesting on that platform thingy, right in front of my crosshair. we took turns shooting, reloading and flying back ocne we ran outta ammo. on one of my runs, i killed 8 enemies, not sure what they were though, since they all lined up on my crosshair trying to get in the vent <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
On ns_lost at temperature control there was a fight between 4 rines and one lerk+fade. I had to reload, so I ran around the corner. Suddenly, the fade bliked around the corner and sttod in front of me, regenrating. I went WTH?!, pulled the knife out and killed him in 2 slashes. Suddenly, the lerk flew aroudn the corner, but flew against an edge and came closer to the ground. I kept slashing and was thinking "ROFL if this worx....." Suddenly, I hit him and he died. Riens and aliens went WTH h4x!!!!11, buit I just jumped around, happily, right into a WOL.

And Impy, I trust you. I know funny stuff happens with knives *points at above*
One was in Veil: the rines were sieging the hell outta Pipeline, and their entire team was right around the corner, constantly fighting skulks and that one fade hammering them with acid.
I was a lerk and had just finished securing Nanogrid, when the sieges started singing.
For some weird twist of luck, the rines were all VERY low on health, so when i arrived and shot a ball of spores amidst them...........BAM! it was like lobbing a grenade! i made like six kills in one shot! omg!
Another kill was as a rine.......in the map.....aww i have little memory for map names.
Anyway we had relocated in athmospheric processing, and the base was taking a serious pounding from two bile-tossing gorges, an onos and a fade.
A buddy of mine managed to kill one gorge and repel the other, but got sliced by the Fade.
Then i spawned.
It happened in seconds: the comm handed me a shotty...and i BAM BAM BAM! three shots.
The first two killed the onos, and the third one creamed the fade.
I HAD SAVED THE DAY!! WOOHOO!!!
