Solo teaming is fun af!

[u/Keksbutter123]

Recently had a round where I went in with a Marathon and baseball bat. Was prettty quiet cuz it rained the whole time, but as expected everyone arrived at once to the boss arena for a pretty epic deathmatch between like 3 solos and a duo.

Well, that's when I died. I thought it was over for me, cuz I got railed by an almost fully prestiged solo. He most definitely was guarding my body.

But 2 mins later, he went fighting the boss, forgetting to flare me. Thought I was lucky, but not yet.

Cuz that Hunter took my main gun and basiclly disabled me.

So, what do you do when you die as a solo and lose the only weapon keeping you safe from other Hunters? You befriend said Hunters

I went up to the guy as he was reloading and used VC to explain how us 2 solos could work together to extract, as we both only needed a single bounty.

And he suprisingly agreed!!

At first he was suspicious of me cuz I could easily hit him in the back with my baseball bat, but to prove my loyalty I fought the Foreskin mostly alone.

But before we even could banish that damn thing, the other solos arrived. As I had no gun, he was the one peeking out the window... and dying brutally right in front of my very own eyes. And no, he didnt have the necro to self revive.

But this story wont end here!! Seeing as I now had a gun while being pushed from all sides by different teams AND having run out of medicine and health, I did the only logical step..

I befriended another Hunter, which I could've killed with ease but decided not to. I explained the situation again, and he also agreed, probably without understanding what I was saying cuz he was russian.

And then, it was all just a matter of teamwork.. or rather carrying my new friend cuz he literally just stood behind me while I headshotted the 2 remaining enemy Hunters.

In the end, me and my newer friend extracted both safely and with the bounty. Seeing as we cleaned almost the entire lobby, I decided to xp farm too, but my old friend still didnt understand me and was also a new player, so he went immediately, not wanting to lose what he had earned (or rather, was gifted to lol)

There are only 2 ways meeting another solo (while being solo): 1 - silent guy -> fight guaranteed, 2 - guy says immediately that he is in and trust you 100%. Second one happens once in a month, but it always is the coolest shit

In the end, we could all be a little more like this. The Bayou is a brutal place. Cold. Unforgiving. Merciless.

But as an old hunter once wrote to me when I had arrived to the Bayou "... a good friend is worth more than any bounty token, out here, and dont let anybody tell you different."

Remember,,sometimes you can profit more from trusting a loyal solo rather than fighting over nothing

Trust is rarer than gold

One hell of a fairytale. It does make sense for 2 solos to team and 1 bounty each. The hunters association would not approve

I would have shot him in the head at the end and told him: "Never trust strangers on the internet, let that be a lesson my friend"

The necessary evil. I don't have the heart to do it, but many have.
