We all have that one thing: that one circumstance that always repeats to you and always screws you over. You can’t escape it. Every time you try something like X then Y will happen and it’ll cost you a life, game, or any dignity you’ve managed to keep up to that point. What’s yours? For the sake of size let’s limit it to 3 things but you can elaborate on those things as much as you see fit.
Here’s mine:
Whenever I grab a power weapon, I get sniped or snuck up on and die.
Whenever I get a vehicle, somebody else gets a tougher vehicle before I can do any damage.
When I throw grenades at an enemy, my teammate that I didn’t see approaches said enemy and is on top of the grenade and dies.
Promethean Vision: Occasionally, enemies can see me through walls as if they have Promethean Vision from Halo 4. Boarding Pass: When I spend 6 hard-earned energy points for a tank in Warzone, I get a free hijacker who immediately boards the tank and blows it up Deus Ex Machina: When I’m fighting a guy one on one and winning, just before or after I get the kill all of his teammates teleport in just outside of radar range and kill me.
-Start reloading when I think no enemies are around and as soon as I start, one rounds the corner
Set up a ground pound or someone running for an assassination, just for someone else to get the kill
-Go to take a long shot with a sniper, and just as you shoot a team mate spartan charges getting the kill and I get the betrayal…too often
Becoming spaced out/not paying attention and then losing my bearings and ending up walking into stuff like walls/ledges etc during a fire fight. Essentially getting “stuck” on something and then inevitably dying because I can’t evade the other guy’s fire.

This. All the frickin time. Objects and other Spartans are a pain for bumping me or getting caught on.
Whenever I try to spaltter an enemy using my Ghost in Warzone/Warzone Assault, I always end up finding they’re a walking ramp and I go airborne, whilst the victim in question plods on with no shields and I get stuck somewhere waiting to be boarded.
One game I play as red, the second game I play as blue. I see a red player and think of him as an ally just to realize I am on the blue team. About the same time I’ve got a mag of AR rounds in my head.
Another thing that has been happening is accidently pressing the melee button which effectively stops my firing for 1-2 seconds just to secure my death. :3
Arena:
Fighting a 1 v 2 with two of my team mates watching me get killed while they’re crouched waiting for them to come around the corner.
Warzone:
Fighting a 1 v 2 with two of my team mates watching me get killed while they’re crouched waiting for them to come around the corner.
get snipe, see enemy, line up shot, fire as teammate steps infront of my shot, get headshot medal as the anouncer says “BETRAYELLLL”.
on pegasus no matter what power weapon i push for my other 3 team mates push for the other one, if i go snipe they push rockets if i go rockets they go snipe… And so on.
get suprised by 2 enemys, get them both weak maybe one of them one-shot, get no assists…even if im calling out!
Too many times have I held the melee button while in air to try that amazing ninja, but instead tries to charge a ground pound, and I die. I really wish ground pound and melee weren’t on the same button
Also when I get a power weapon/vehicle in Warzone to take down a LB to win but I die with it by either:
Passing by enemy armory and getting boarded - Random enemy takes potshots at me from a long way and somehow manages to kill me - Sniper gets a cheapshot on me - I get caught off-guard9/10 times when this happens we lose.
Also when I see a power weapon, and I get within 10m of it, then the entire enemy team pops out of nowhere and just REQ’s me and steals the weapon.
I emp a tank while dodging its fire manage to climb on top and…jump into the turret… then get destroyed by enemy team mates. 2ND I spawn an AD victorIum as warden eternal health is getting low, and take him out with the final shot, but some scrub spams an smg round into him and gets the enemy the win.
Human Shield: Every time I go down a tunnel/hallway/corridor of any kind first in a group, I walk into an ambush and get killed while everyone behind me fights them. Occasionally, when I’m in the back, an enemy follows us in and kills me before anyone can react.
Super-Attractiveness: When traveling with a large group of team-mates, going toward and about to engage a large group of enemies, the enemies usually seem to target and shoot only me. Out of everyone in a large group, the enemies all go after me, killing me.
Grenade Un-Luck: Normally, I’m actually a crack shot at throwing grenades. My friends say that I can lob one just about anywhere. This amazing ability occasionally comes with amazing bad luck, in which the grenade will be thrown off course by accidently hitting the smallest of obstacles/protrusions/whatever. Can be augmented to have grenade bounce back at me or at a teammate.
Bad Timing: This one comes in a lot of forms. Sometimes I spawn a super power weapon, or any kind of tank only for us to win or lose not five seconds after wasting the REQ. Sometimes I get power weapons and spawn right in the middle of a battle in which I am promptly killed. Sometimes I waste a REQ on a battle that I was watching before spawning, only to spawn and discover that the battle is won and I have no use for the weapon.
Clearing out a base of Spartans only to be finished off by the last marine.

Any time I am playing breakout, I get a kill, then somebody ALWAYS comes around the corner. Thankfully, I’ve started expecting this to happen so I can usually counter it. =)
All power weapons give me a random teleportation upon spawn. I know this because if I choose to spawn with a sniper rifle at the Spire, I’ll suddenly instead be down on the beach right under Captain Hestro. And his Phaeton is a major threat.
Co-Evolution: Whenever I find a power weapon and think I have the upper hand with it, it’ll turn out that the other team got an even better power weapon than me. Ex. I grab the shotgun and the other team will get rockets.
