Voidwalker on Twilight Gap - DestinyDB Holiday Giveaway
# Dec 22 2015 at 10:35 AM Rating: Decent
I was playing with a group of friends on Twilight Gap. It was a close game the entire match. I was doing very well with my Warlock (voidwalker), mainly using my chaperone. I remember each team had around 18.5k points. We had A point and they had C point as well just took away our B point. I ran over to B (from A) while they were capturing it and went in through the side door. I launched my nova bomb in the control point to get a triple kill. Then I guarded/captured the point by myself getting 3 or 4 chaperone/gernade kills as the enemy trickled in one by one. Felt awesome being able to go on a roll right at the end to secure a victory.
Best Iron Banner Game

I've had a few decent IB runs. But I think the one that stands out the most is one in house of wolves where they made helmets available. I remember trying to grind out rank 5 IB for that sweet loot on my warlock. At the time, I was running a
Voidwalker with full IB gear ( minus the helmet of course) and my weapons were Messenger, Felwinters Lie, and Jolders hammer. I wound up going on a 35 kill streak and went unbroken that game. It was just so fluid and smooth switching from messenger, to shotgun, to chaingun, then back to shotgun and wiping everyone out. Poor guys on the other team never saw it coming. :) That match, without a doubt, was the most satisfying IB match I have ever had.
good moment

Iron Banner

So I was with a fireteam from LFG, im on the xbox 360 so we started going on a nice 6 win streak, I needed one more win for my bounty and then it happened. We got matched up against a fireteam of 6. You could already smell the tryhardedness (LOL) In the pre game lobby. And thats how it was, the B zone was not captured until we had our Sunbreaker clean house. It was always a very competitive game and very close. I didnt want to lose, I wanted to buy my Nirwens Mercy and just sleep. I had my stormtrance saved up the entire game, just saving it for when needed the most. Towards the end of the match I couldn't find anyone, I was afraid if wed lose it was my fault because I had this one super saved up the whole match. And then.. It happened, I went to the A flag (they were taking it when we had 2 flags) and used my super, thank you impossible machines.. TRIPLE DOWN!! Capped the flag and we won the game. Everyone was happy though.. I received some not very friendly messages from the enemy team after the game haha!

My team was pretty high on the points and the round was ending, so I decided to head over to "A" to back up a teammate. When I got there a hunter came in from the left with his golden gun already activated. He unfortunately made quick work of my team mate, but not before falling to a sniper body shot which takes him down. With 2 more enemies hot on his trail I use the rock from right side door for cover while I use my primary (thorn) to pick off the remaining 2 with headshots. Looking at my radar I noticed the ping behind me and I also notice my super is not charged; however, looking in front of me I noticed a pile of orbs left by my fallen team mate. I make the decision to go for the orbs which immediately charge my super, and as this happens a hear a scatter grenade explode behind me. To try and survive what I thought might be an imminent death, I run behind the stone for cover and activate my golden gun hoping that the armour will allow me to survive (which it did). I then strafed out and notice that the remaining 3 enemy team getting ready to charge through the door. The first shot hits the mark and takes the one of them out, the second one misses as the hunter actually jumps over the shot, but the third hits him and makes short work of him. I then take my time and line of the 4th shot thanks to the Achlyophage Symbiote, and kill the last enemy player taking out the entire team to close out the match.

Here's the video if you're curious as to how the whole scenario played out.

Iron banner
# Dec 22 2015 at 10:19 AM Rating: Decent
So the last fun moment I remember in iron banner, was before TTK. I was with a fire team with four others and we were playing in the asylum. We were having a bad game. A really bad game. We were losing something like 3000 to 7000. No one had hope, but we were playing to have fun, so we still tried. Eventually most of each team were on B flag where a friendly fist of havoc destroyed the enemies, and we took it over. I died and spawned on A and thought, hey why not. We then had all capture points and got and idea. We all used our supers immediately, if we thought we could get kills. We eventually won the game. It was, hands down, the most fun game of iron banner I had ever played. -Note, I also got my felwinters lie that game.
Don't challenge a Defender

I main a Titan, and as such, I play Iron Banner as a titan quite a bit. I joined in late, to a game on Exodus Blue. we were losing 15000-11500. The enemy had all 3 control points and we only had 5 people on our team, including myself. I knew I would have to put the "try-hard pants" on, so I switched to Defender, put on Armor of Light, and equipped Helm of Saint-14 and Invective. After taking C flag and getting a few kills, I had my super available. I charged into the B flag and dropped my Ward of Dawn. As I did, an enemy Titan popped Hammer of Sol and rushed into my bubble. I tanked a Hammer, then sprayed him down with my Invective. A few seconds later, a Warlock activated Stormtrance and charged me. I mowed him down as well, only losing half my shield. Immediately after I killed the warlock, the remaining 4 enemies decided to charge me with shotguns. I put an Invective shell into their chests the moment they entered the Ward. Half of them missed their shots due to the Blinding effect of the Helm of Saint-14. Having cleared the entire enemy team solo while the rest of my team captured A flag, I took B unassisted, and took 2 of the enemy's supers out of the equation. we won, 20050 to 18500. Never underestimate a Defender titan.
my best moment in IB

it's not like i am a good player on pvp, i think i am a bit above average, but anyway, my best moment on Iron Banner was in the first Iron Banner of year 2, where I out of nowhere started going on a rampage with my shotgun, it was kill after kill after kill, it must have actually been my best moment in pvp, Those moments were really exciting and awesome just 1 shot-killing everyone in my way :)
Come back while maintaining the bad spawn
# Dec 22 2015 at 7:45 AM Rating: Decent
My greatest moment was back on the 360 (thus I have no recording) with 5 other friends.
We were playing on Shores of Time and got the bad spawn, the enemy team took B and C right off the bat.
Then proceeded to hang back with snipers (back then Praedyth's Revenge was the go to sniper) and defend those 2 points, which is more convenient from that side.
After we started getting behind I went through the round room near C, then continued to the passage that doesn't lead to point C itself but to the left of that passage, past the special ammo spawn and then I floated up to the building that's half sunken into the mud. When I got up there I killed one or two with my suros and the enemy realised I was there they started chasing me. But I ran around the building and since they didnt have a close ranged weapon it was hard for them to kill me. In the mean time my friends managed to capture B. I then died because there was no place left to hide and about 3 people were onto me.
It's quite hard to maintain B when not spawning at that side but somehow we managed by keeping to throw our bodies at point B and often trading kills. In the end we won a close match all due to that one capture, because the enemy was playing quite passively and desperately wanted to get point B back.

Edit: Typo in the subject.

Defender Titan Chase Down
# Dec 22 2015 at 7:16 AM Rating: Decent
The best moment I ever had in Iron Banner was when I was playing my Titan as a Defender. I just managed to live in this heated duel between me and another player and as soon as it ended two players began to shoot at me. My shields were constantly falling and recharging as I ran. I was saved when I turned the corner and found a globe of light which was just enough to charge my super. I dropped my bubble and as soon as the two players caught up to me I was able to give them some good right hooks and survive. It was heart racing to be chased like that and still pull off two kills.

Well i started not too long ago and i entered iron banner after seeing it was the event thingy, well lets say it ended well... for the enemy team. I got a amazing kd of 0.0 because of the 0 kills and 10 deaths. The life of the newbie
Epic 11.0 KD
# Dec 22 2015 at 12:35 AM Rating: Decent
I'm not the greatest at PVP but I'm not terrible either and during the last Iron Banner before TTK dropped while playing on my Hunter i went on an unbelievable killing spree. It started with one or two normal kills then a 4 kill Arc Blade with which I stole their heavy ammo. With my BTRD (RIP) in hand I murdered at least 5 guardians probably more. I kept circling around the map and ran out of heavy just as the next one was about to spawn but guess what my super was back up! I used Arc Blade again and got another 3 kills as well as stealing their heavy again! I got a couple more kills with my trusty BTRD and then the matched ended. I went 22-2 with an 11.0 KD i was way to hype it was epic!

I know it not a video because sadly I don't have one but here's a screenshot of the match results!
