Knife Trolling

[Chikun]

Wait, are you complaining about a strategy that actively encourages the other team to camp?

Well sounds to me is that your just having trouble getting kills lol, b/c if most of your team is knifing then that leaves alot more lvls to gain for you, i would actually prefer to be on this team. Sure the other team might be winning most of the rounds but not 1 person is getting all the free kills their whole team is, and so you being the only person on the team shooting gives you more lvls then the other team winning all the rounds, so its not necessarily any harder or easier for 1 person on either team to win. P.S. ive won a few times knife only the whole game with ppl shooting.

I'm not sure what you actually mean by this.

Rellik, the problem doesn't really exist until knife/nade level, as I mentioned earlier. Appreciate your insight though, and I agree, half a team of knifers generally makes getting to knife/nade pretty easy. I honestly don't have a problem getting to knife/nade regardless of what the other team is doing these days though.

Viable strategy. I recommend not leaving. Playing against a team that does this only makes you better. Don't forget, when fighting knife trains, your bullets go through each body. If, we'll say, you're on deagle and this happens, start prefiring. There are what, 6 avenues for them to train down? This means that if you prefire, you're likely to catch the first or second. Secondly, when doing knife trains, most people are cautious and don't swipe until the person in front of them is down to avoid tk'ing. This is a HUGE advantage. Your thread is whining. You're bitching about wanting to leave when this starts happening. I say, do it. Less shitties.

i suppose we should expect a post about OP races on wcs and how we should ban them or some scrub is going to leave the servers when they are being played next...

Please see my response to Rellik, since you both basically said the same fucking thing.

I agree though, less shitties when both of us aren't around.

Does this happen on any maps other than deagle and spacetower? I can't speak for the rest of the CT's that one game, but I only knife for practice, and because knifing people is fun. I don't do it specifically for the purpose of trolling people. And for the instance of deagle where you got knocked off nade round and I won in the end, I'd say a majority of my knife kills were against T players who were also knifing. My only advice is that if you're playing deagle and don't want to be knifed, join the CTs. I know it's frustrating, but it's not like we play deagle 24/7 and it's pretty rare to have that many people knifing at once I think.

It's typically deagle and wootday. It's all good. I wanted to post the thread to get the 'official' response, Owns gave it and I'll stick to what I said - if people want to knife troll, I'll just find something else to do. It's just frustrating when I have a window with which to enjoy and play the game and dicks wanna be dicks is all.

there is no rule we have that would cause this to not be allowed...

shoot well. it might take a bit longer to get levels, but if everyone is knifing it shouldn't be too bad.
