finishing off a damaged catapult with a headshot while flying through the air, as well as an awesome and an atlas (also with a headshot) when left as the last mech in a single-ppc spider.

[Barkem Squirrel]

Just this week I had a game in the forest colony where I got a few assists, but no kills. This was in a 2X Raven with 2 MPL, 2 ML and one Streak 2. I was watching where the other team was and hitting their flanks. Then this untouched short range weapons Atlas just disappeared while we were hitting the rest of his team, and a Catapult just went down so I turned back up the hill. Then I saw that we were being caped, so I called for help on the in game text and someone responded. Going 80 against an Atlas will get you killed if the Atlas pilot is any good. I pulled up behind him and tried staying in his rear arch and firing, but he did a good job of forcing me to cross in front of him with his movements. Then one person in a cataphract came back to cap while I was playing the annoying and distracting target. After a few hits from the other mech, he changed targets, allowing me to unload on his CT, so he switched back to me and blew off my left arm and left leg, but this allowed more time for the other mech to hit his CT while I was still firing and being blown to bits. This Atlas Pilot was good, but by teaming up we defeated him. At the end the other pilot sent, "good team up for a kill." I wish I could remember who this pilot was to thank him, since the match ended just after the next mech went down. Thanks for coming back.

This was one of the time's that will stay in may memory. Good Atlas Pilot, and back up coming to help that I needed. Even though I did not get the kill, it was a hard fought kill.

Any Raven 3L kill brings me great satisfaction.  This is done preferably with 4 AC/5s. Or lately I have been enjoying the Krakatoa boom of 2 LBX10s, SRM 4 and 6 and a ER PPC.

Holding my 6 large lasers total burn time on the head hitbox of an enemy mech who mistakenly held still, while I torched his face off at 700m.

My very first game I was playing for maybe 5-10 mins and then brought down a Commando with a laser attack. =)

[Souldoubt13]

was in my cent (2 med lsr, 2 srm6) there was a commando running away and ran into a low wall and was trying to turn around i unloaded on him. right when my lasers and srm's were on the way another commando jumped off the ledge in front of him. they both exploded at the same time...it was a good day.

Got 2
At Frozen City, Trying my best to keep some support fire with my cicada, (3-C, 1 LL 3mg)
An Atlas comes over the ridge, he's pretty beat up with a few open spots but was still pretty well armed, I start to circle, alternating between my LL and my 3mgs, the mgs strike true, (either XL engine or ammo) and one atlas comes sliding, face first down the hill.

River City, Stalker 3-F,(4SRM6,4ML,2LL) making my way down upper city, my sensors go dead, raven rounds a corner and right into a 4SRM6,4ML barrage. he was nothing but sparks and smoke.

[Max Immelmann]

locked in CoD with mech, neither of realized we went out of bounds, we both die.

[spiglnigl]

Mine best kill was in forest colony. I was the last man (mech) standing on our side after enemy catapult have just killed our atlas. My damage was just minor when we started to fight, while his armor was already orange, but standing everywhere. But I was only in hunchback with enty LRM and 5 medium lasers against cat's multiple lartge lasers.
Finaly both of are were about to die. I have changed the circle to the oposit side and fired full alpha with 95% heat on the beginning. I was never so happy when my mech went sutdown just after a great explosion.

[RiceyFighter]

I don't know why but when I kill ravens in my commando, so satisfying man. COM 2D vs Raven 3L

[Tesunie]

I had one match that was filled with awesome kills. I was playing conquest, frozen city. I ran through the tunnel to cap their base and kappa. The rest of my team fights at the hill line. After I get kappa, I check my team, we are ahead in kills and caps. Run to Theta as my team seems to be holding their own. Find another light at Theta and fight him. I kill him, but loose my leg in the process. Being the Cicada pilot, I'm in bad without that leg. I check teams... I'm the last one left and the other side has three mechs still around.

An enemy Cataphrate falls down the legde to kill me. I shoot out of instinct, and kill him in one Alpha. Okaaay... Anouther mech falls down. This will be my death. It's another heavy and I can't move. I'm so dead, but I might as well shoot. Another heavy goes up in smoke. Okay. I can't take that last one, but if I can survive, we win...and down drops the last one. I am SOOOO dead. I don't even get time to lock as he falls right in front of me. I shoot blind again and... am rewarded with a fourth mech wreck on Theta... and my team wins by kill. I just sit at my computer with a stupid "I can't believe I just did that" goofy grin on my face.

I do want to give credit to my team though. Without them causing as much damage as they did to the enemy, I would have been dead. It was, in the end, a lot of luck and teamwork.

[Spiketail Drake]

Most recent and satisfying kill was an Atlas D-DC vs me in a Stalker 5M with the (nearly) stock weapons. Managed to overheat LESS than the Atlas and cored him with SRMs. Stalkers are bad in a good way. >

[E_Crow]

Killing a Raven. WITH LRMS!!!!!!!
Just joking (but it was fun).

The best time was when I was in my founders Hunchback, with two med. pulses, a gauss w/ four tons ammo, and some other stuff. All my armor was down to yellow, I had thirty two shots left in Gauss, and I come face to face with an enemy Cata

ct in mint condiition. Through some fluke (Or so he claimed) I not only dealt more damage then him, but he actually fled after our short engagment. After chasing him behind some Atlases on his side who were occupied with my larger friends, I backed him into a corner and finished him off with my final Gauss slug, coring him.I survived the battle (barely) and with only lost the right torso, with it ammoless gauss in it, to a pissed off but almost dead Atlas. Final score- Me two kills, their team eliminated, and I survived with only one team loss. (Surving a battle is hard for me.)

I'm in my Hunch 4H versus a Cataphract 4X, we're the last 2 on the field on Forest Colony. Both my arms are gone but I have almost full armor on my torso, he is almost unscathed except for his left torso armor is gone. We exchange a few AC rounds and lasers, I take out his left arm and he takes out my left torso destroying most of my AC/20 ammo (luckily i had a case on it). I finally square my aim on his unarmored left torso and fire my AC/20, critical damage blows out his XL engine and sends him up in flames, VICTORY!

Here's another one:

Frozen city night. I'm in an Awesome 8Q, sporting 2ERPPCs and one PPC. I take up position in the city to provide ppc support when I find myself looking at the back of an enemy srm catapult, who was shooting at my allies from behind. Obligated to evict this unwanted guest, a few shots with all my ppcs to its rear ended the catapult quickly. I then continued to offer fire support as the enemy advanced to our position, softening up some targets for the friendlies to kill. It was after I took down a Cataphract that things got pretty dicey --

An Ecm raven wanted to play with me, and I did not wish to partake in his harassment. Even better, a Flame - sporting a gauss rifle - joined forces with the raven to try and end my career while I made a run for it, using the buildings as cover against their suppressive fire. My front and back armor of the torso were glowing red, much of it shredded by their combined fire. Under duress, I continued to maintain a consistent fire of ppcs at the opposition, firing it after 80m to ensure actual damage while this continued on for a while. Eventually, As I see that I am unable to take another gauss rifle shot to my weakened front, I entered a quickdraw with the Flame.

He shot.
I shot.

But apparently, I was more accurate with my ppcs than he is with his Gauss. BAM! A direct core, and the enemy exploded in a satisfying kill.
All that was left was the Raven. There was only two of us left versus the moderately damaged Raven, but my remaining ally - a catapult with only one missile pod left - was unable to provide much support, most of his weapons shot off during the match. The Raven danced and peppered us with its missiles and medium lasers, but eventually, when he rounded the corner...

I fired, and the Raven went down from the alpha strike.

[Sifright]

This one.

[MmmBe3r]

My favourite has been running on Caustic with a very terible PUG and wiping all 8 enemy mechs in my jenner with 6 small lasers. The end of the match beign the best kill with a cent trying to cap my base within a fraction of the enemy team winning.

[Sandslice]

I have one that could actually fall under "most satisfying DEATH." Forest Colony Assault, we start on the side that puts the river on the right. A K2 and my Awesome go tunnel to flank, and we get word of the enemy position: f5-ish. There also seems to be good coordination on our side, which is key. Once our flanking group gets out of the tunnel, I let the K2 go forward toward d8, while I turn right, and put an alpha into the back of an unaware CTF.

This gets his attention, that of a SECOND CTF, and also a Hunchback and something else, either a Dragon or a Centurion, I forget. So I kite them into the little niche in front of the tunnel, kill the CTF I opened on, and put considerable pain on the other three before being taken out. Because of this, the team was able to fight 7:4 while I stalled four myself, and we won 8:2 with me topping damage at 547.

[Mechwarrior Buddah]

an awesome (the mech) cockpit shot in a Catapult dual AC/20. In frozen city tunnel. I even apologized, he thought it was kinda funny

[RawheadRex]

I had the yellow screen bug and no one would kill me so I ran around Full R e t a r d and shot randomly at anything I thought was an enemy mech. I lucked out and hit a massively damaged Ragin Steel and killed him
