Personally, I don’t care for assassinations. I hate the fact that they were even introduced in the first place. There needs to be some kind of advantage to assassinating someone in game rather than just giving someone a medal, as beat downs have their own medals as well. I think it unnecessarily exposes you to attack for no competitive advantage whatsoever. I am certainly in the minority with this opinion.

Personally, I love assassinations. When you perform one, you look like a total bad-Yoink- but you’re right, it makes you too exposed. To me, it adds more…“realism” to Halo. In real life, people get into hand-to-hand combat all the time. Also, we all know how much it sucks when you’re the one getting assassinated. It’s almost as bad as a -Yoink!-.
why bother having them at all? they are literally pointless.
I wouldn’t mind a gravity hammer one. However, I’m not sure about the rest of them 
Just my opinion.

BTW OP, this isn’t Gears of War. Save your execution ideas for the Black Tusk forums.
Not sure about the ones with guns. The point of an assassination is to be somewhat stealthy. A lot of these seem to take a long time.
Personally, I like assassinations for forge, custom games and for screenshots, but I try and avoid them in multiplayer unless I know for certain I’m not exposed. In Halo 5, since the Spartans have thruster packs, I’d like to see one where the assassin winds up and then uses his thrusters forward to deliver a deadly punch.
