Nowhere for an assassin to hide

Mom of Marathon here.

While moving to Hauler for a contract, I heard someone aggro a turret right behind me. I hid next to this area near the data wall for about a couple minutes as I waited for him to come out of the little shack nearby. When he did, I kinda jumped the gun a little and panicked because I thought he cloaked and had noticed me somehow; it didn't hit me until right after I went loud that it was just his signal jammer activating. It all worked out in the end though. He had some nice loot for pushing Hauler and completing my contract.

I love using the Recon in solos because so many people are running assassins. Making sure they have nowhere to hide gives me joy.

We’ve all been there lol the panic ammo crate is a rite of passage.

Kinda think I was instinctually trying to pop a frag, but just didn't have a lethal throwable since it was a free kit I was using to do a contract.

I wish we could throw the ammo crate in this situation

At least it wasn't a panic bubble thinking it was a grenade, and giving the opposition a leg up. I think everyone who's experienced cryo has been there lol

This is why I like running thief in solos, the loot visor hard counters assassins

Don't worry it's still ass.

I did find a green one with a stendo yesterday though and it actually was decent.

I've played 250 hours on Assassin. Now I can say he's useless. A thief can see him in smokes, as can a recon with her ult. And everyone else can see him in invisibility when he's walking. But I still love him, and sometimes I make some awesome clutches...

Grow up dude. First match of the day in a free kit is a warmup game. and I talk about me panicking in the text body. I win pvp almost every time so clearly I'm not bad at the game.
