Nominating Tyrone the Thug, during a HG round, he had at least beaten 7 peoples faces in with a WOODEN Bat. GG.

Shout out to Victor Furor, an unsung hero in the HG round mentioned above.

Broken and unable to move, he nobly elected to use himself as bait for other hunters, a trap which proved to be the end of Tyrone the Thug.

Shoutout to Leo Backburn last round. Held out with our initial 3-man defense in tcomms and turned it into a full-fledged FOB, turning a game that was almost certainly an alien major victory back into undecided territory. He was then promoted to Bravo SL and lead an assault against the xenos until only the empress remained. They came back, but still... a legendary play.

Shoutout to Harry Cowper as well. The three of us were the core of that defensive fight, and we prevented a costly retreat to the Sulaco and killed many aliens.

SailorDave and a nubcake.

As an Empress, Crusher and Carrier, the three of us brought the xeno team back from the brink. From 3 surviving aliens to what I imagine was around 15, ending the round in a xeno major.

Was glad to have you two on my team. Queen-Mother's blessings upon you both.

I was a CL that actually helped the marines and when the survivors came back I put them to work building combat capable Ripleys. The two Ripley builders then piloted them down to the area and killed multiple aliens. That was amusing to be a part of.

I am Lucas Oliveira...the ultimate HUNTER

After the Yautja lured us into his trap, i rushed in the front and quickly got my knife out of my boots, as soon as me and the Yautja started the battle some few marines come to aid me, i got hit by bullets, scythe cuts...it was a damn good battle, unfortunately the Yautja didn't accept me winning the battle and destroyed himself with the gear he had, after that i lost everything, my scythe, my trophy...then i got depressed and everyone died in sulaco due to of course, alien babies that invaded the ship, may i rest in fucking piss (BTW i fought with an Elder just to know...)

You have no honor... The elder was being shot and fought by what looks like 2 other marines, and you hit it while it was down, which you shouldn't have done according to the honor code. So you, my friend, have no honor

He's also the arse that nearly caused a riot because the RO didn't reserve a barrel charger for him, so I find it highly unlikely he managed to beat a Predator in a fair duel. Sure, he has a chance to, if it was a fair duel. If this is an unfair duel, it doesn't count towards Predators kills. Looking at you, Isaac.

With the support of my fellow Judge Casany, we disqualify this entry to The Unsung Heroes, as false.

Aligations about me winning about the barrel chargers are false, i always pick grip and RDS, it was only one time that i tried to cause some fake drama about the barrel charger the RO wasn't giving to me, if i remember correctly, i only asked for barrel chargers two times when i was standard and SL, about the other marines shooting the predator...he could have cloaked and got outta there, i was DUELING with him while the others were trying to shoot the Yautja, i cornered him and the real fight started, he tried to get out and got shot a lot of times, it wasn't my fault he wanted to go out and take the others, he was dueling ME, the other marines were behind so they could't realy shoot the Yautja, but they indeed help me take him down, but you need to know it was his fault to die, as i said earlier, he could have choosen to cloak and fight another time with me, you can't judge people because of their actions, other Yautjas usually hit people down, but i didn't know its unworthy to hit preds down, as they did the same thing with me in the past, anyway don't judge the book by its front, i am very robust when i pick B18 armor

This might've worked if I wasn't there when it happened. Allegations about you whining about barrel chargers are quite true, but it's an off-topic matter.

Nowhere do you mention attempting to stop your fellow marines. Also, you seem to have faced a heavily injured predator with internal injuries and broken bones from the bullets, by your own admission. Now, about Yautja knocking people down, you DO know that's based on RNG, right? And when they do, they don't hit you while you're down.

Side note, if he cloaked and ran away from a fight with you, as you were challenging him to a duel, it would've been a massive blow to his honour, so he stayed and accepted. Sure, if the other Marines hadn't severely crippled him, and you managed to defeat him, it'd be an honourable kill. As it is, though, it was indeed a heavily injured predator, and even then, you had him backed into a corner and the other marines were shooting him whenever they got the chance.

I was cornering him and the marines could't shoot it, if they had, i would have been dead, there was walls behind him, there was NO chance he would die by the other marines, i was cornering him and he decided to get out, he could have easily choosen to run away when he saw three or four marines coming into his way, he mostly died because of me, the battle wasn't completely honorable, but who harmed him most was me, not the other marines, they only assisted in maybe four shoots, also have to mention this was before the pred nerf, so he was pretty fucking tough to take out, and it would't be dishonorable to cloak in the battle, as far as i can tell, preds usually cloak while fighting too many xenos, same goes to marines, you can't take too many oponents at the same time, by the way, why make such drama about this? i just wanted to share that i killed a pred in a knife fight and you are just complaining how it wasn't honorable, there's too much salt going on already...

Correction, I'm not complaining, I'm discounting it. As for the rest, observe the post you quoted.

As for why I made drama for no discernible reason?
Boredom, and because every entry to The Unsung Heroes must be heavily criticised and examined. It may be the poor man's hall of fame, but it's still a hall of fame. Only worthy achievements must be here! For that, is the Law of Fame(tm)!

Defeating an Elder, before the nerf, in a knifefight, where other marines only got four shots off on the Elder? I heavily doubt it. Elders are the best in the Predator whitelist, and before the nerf the armour was ridiculously strong, as were the predators. Even if you did defeat the Elder, it could not have been without a lot more assistance than four shots! And that, court, is my case.

Aaaaaand I'm not salty. Salt is when you get killed and start screaming in Dchat that it was bullshit. Criticising an entry to TUC is constructive criticism.

EDIT: Might as well make my own entry. Shoutout to Jack Knight for holding off a full-scale riot as RO when he said the marines would get their attachments AFTER briefing, then told everyone he spaced them.

Good to know you're not realy starting a fight, it wasn't easy to get the pred down since he was buffed as fuck, as you can see in the screenshots, i actually broke his chest, it wasn't the other marines, but he realy had a bad weapon, the scythe wasn't dealing that much of a damage to me, i think it was a pretty fair fight since its optional to hit your opponent down, its not a realy honorable thing to do, but doesn't count as being dishonorable, he also almost killed everyone with the plasma caster, i'm not sure if the other marines would have killed the pred actually, from that day i discovered that knifes are deadly as fuck, and can be even better than a machete, anyway i won't start another section of comments about this happening, but you gotta think from another perspective, it wasn't that honorable to draw a plasma caster in the fight, since he was fighting me instead of the other marines, marines help other marines, that's a fact, shotgun slugs helped in the battle...a little and of course if it wasn't for the knockdowns i would have died for sure, so i will consider this a draw from me and the pred, since he could just cloak when he saw the four marines coming in, and for me to be with marines, it wasn't a very honorable fight, but it was a honorable one, peace out!

When me as the RO and a CT killed four aliens (two of which were T3) defending Cargo before dying. (Admittedly they were extremely weakened from the MT messing up and blasting them with superheated air, but the kills were totally ours).
