Funniest moment playing online?

It doesn’t matter which Halo or when. I’m just curious what hilarious events happened to you in matchmaking.

One that always sticks out for me is in Halo 3. Dual Slayers. Aka only dual wielding weapons. On the stage Snowbound I think. Anyways, back then if you killed an enemy player you could hear their mic for the few seconds they died right before they respawn. So during this match everyone picked the same obvious weapons. Plasma rifles, SMGs, Spikers. I got creative. I grabbed two Maulers. For those unaware, firing two at the same time at close range is the equivalent of a shotgun. Aka instant kill. So I just kept creeping around, popping around corners and killing enemy combatants unsuspecting me. Finally after about 12 or 13 kills I hear someone yell “I F***ING HATE THAT GUY!!!” And I laughed so hard, knowing that I was truly doing my job.

Two more instances were in Halo: Reach. One was me and another player were shooting at each other on some map in Forge World, can’t remember which. They then threw a frag grenade at me. It bounced off my chest and flew back at him, exploding on him and killing him. It was then I realized that I have abs of steel! Another instance was in Battle Canyon inside a base. I knew I was gonna die so I threw a plasma grenade at my enemy and stuck them. As I died, I watched at they initiated Armour Lock. But since their character didn’t land their fist on the ground before the grenade exploded, it killed them. Soooooo…Armour Lock was definitely not going to save them then!!!

Anyways, I’m just curious about your laughable moments. We could all use some laughs right about now anyways.

One moment that always gets me was back in H3’s days.

Playing slayer on Guardian, I have a hammer and I can hear someone breathing moderately heavy into their mic through proximity chat and I jump out yelling “SURPRISE MOTHER ****ER”.

He was clearly surprised from his reaction lol.

I don’t know if this is “funny” per se, but off the top of my head:

Back in the Halo 2 days, there was this obnoxious guy trolling everyone in the match. I was playing as an elite and he immediately took notice of me and started to harass me. He then condescendingly boasted “Oh! Now I’m going to betray the elite!” He tried to team kill me and I killed him first. Immediately after that he quit the match or had shut up for the rest of the game, I forget what exactly happened, but the guy never talked again.

Usually when people grief me they end up getting away with it. But I have this under my belt. Felt good.
