Sharing my glorious Ace of Spades match and joining the 1k damage club in my Atlas Boar's Head. Running 6 medium pulse + AC20. Feels good bro.

Good job. It's so nice to see the Atlas kicking *** again.

[Narcissistic Martyr]

We still mark 1k damage?

All kidding aside, that's not a bad match and it certainly looks like you carried your team to victory there.

Most of my 1k+ matches are losses frankly because I can't quite carry hard enough... nothing more frustrating than losing the match and seeing that half your team did about 50 damage.

Good for you man. Seriously that achievement alluded me for the longest time. I had probably 20x 7 kill games before finally getting it. Next stop, Death Star! Just kidding.

Has anyone even gotten that in a 100% legit way yet?

I think I've seen 2 people get 11 kills legitimately in screenshots. I've never seen anyone get it without the whole disconnecting exploit that happened before. It really has nothing to do with your skills as a pilot but simply incredible RNG to give you the last touch on everything.

My first "Ace of Spades" was in my Mist Lynx, of all mechs. 2xMPL in Tourmaline, soloed the last 6. I'm not that good, they were just that bad. But, it's a Myst Linx, I'll brag about that.

I'm sure somebody out there has gotten death star legit; killing blows are basically completely random, so probably the stars have aligned at least once or twice.

I got my 8 back in the pre-nerf 5SS days, that mech was so silly

[RockmachinE]

Nice run.

I got my ace of spades in a freaking Commando. I'm not joking, 6 straight kills and 2 afks . There was a brief window, just after clan release, where for some reason it was really easy to get behind enemies. The straight up brutal PPFLD alphas were also not quite the norm at that time.

Nice job, OP! Congrats!

I got my Ace in an ENF-4R with 9 kills and 1309 damage on Mining Collective. It came down to 1v4, with me facing off against two EBJs, a Dire, and a Loki with ECM. That was a match for the memories!

I've seen several people who have claimed to, but never seen a screenshot w/ 12 kills that didn't involve a lot of DCs. I've gotten 10 a couple of times legit, but it would just be incredibly lucky to get 12 kills when playing with any decent players.

Yeah I'm still stuck there. 20 sounds about right, too... might have as many as 25 games with 7 kills.

LOL... I even had 7-kill games back when the game was 8 vs 8! But somehow I can't manage 8 kills now that it's 12 vs 12. /sigh

9 is the most I've done. Can vouch for 10 legit, have seen vid of 11 but 12? Best way I can figure would be to make a T5 smurf account. No way in T1.

Also, congrats OP. That's a big milestone. And 5 solo kills is carrying for sure.

I had an 8 kill game back before the achievement existed and it was 8v8 still. I was in a brawling raven with mlas and streaks iirc. Haven't gotten an 8 kill game since, but I also took a long break for a while too so I'm sure I can make it happen if the RNG gods shine down on me one day.

There should be an achievement for terrible luck like the 900dmg game I had in an unelited gargoyle with 0 kills.

There is one if you get most damage of both team and no kill. Got that one in a Spider...

Does CW counts for those achievements? Should make it "easier" to get the 12 kills one.

[Ryokens leap]

Iceferret D, 1 CERPPC on quirked arm w/ cooldown module, 1 cmplas, tc1. Never overheats, rediculous recycle time.

No, CW doesn't count for any stats or achievements. Every good player would have DS if it did.

[Juodas Varnas]

I got 11 kills twice now (both times in a Locust, yeah, i have no idea why, either, i'm usually a pretty bad Light pilot).
So i wouldn't be surprised if people got legit Death Stars with 'mechs like the Ach or a Firestarter, fast enough to run around the map and steal kills.
