Are You Gifted?

<div class="IPBDescription">Curious topic :)</div> I just wanted if some people seem that they are "gifted" to do something in the game.

For Example:

Me; I always seem to find a blind spot on a TF in a matter of second, usually before I die once.(As alien)

also pretty good with lucky shots with GL.

    I sometimes manage to block fades when they try to blink away (the only way to kill a decent fade) heh

    Ability to be stealthy without silence/cloaking. Also making <b>logical conclusions</b>, I can't believe how some people completely miss out on that kind of stuff.

    i seem to have the ability to subconciously hear something and act on it subconciously, doesn't help that much in ns (does sometimes tho!), what i mean is if i'm running down a corridor in dod all of a sudden i stop and start backing up without conciously realising i'm doing it and then a nade blows up where i would have been <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I am a tactical Gorge.
    I study the maps and look for the areas that are best to make a WoL, that will be the most helpful to my team. I use web in traps, not as tinsel.

    Sadly in 2.01 Flayra has turned my fav thing to do into a joke.... My WoL are useless now!

    I'm pretty good at dodging the first (or second, if he surprises me) skulk bite. Unfortunately, my aim sucks, so I usually don't manage to kill him. /:

    Paradoxically, I'm pretty nasty with the pistol.

    Ability to stay in plain sight and not be seen (as marine) by any alien. Gorge, fade, Onos, skulk, it dosent matter! They NEVER see me until I shoot!

    Using this ability to sneak behind enemy lines and get a phase going, preferably right next to the hive <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    ehhh i can tell exactly what we need, even without seeing what the marines/aliens are building (although my team doesnt listen to me 80% of the time... i get alot of "i told you so"s in <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo--> ). I also have this strange "feeling" every time i play... i get it and think "Hey... no one has checked cargo hive in a while" then i run over there and kill the Marine building the phasegate... clearing the hive.

    Also, i preform magic tricks with the shotgun, like being able to kill an onos with a shotty, a railing, and lots and lots of ammo by myself.

    BTW: nothing pisses me off more then getting stuck INSIDE A RESOURCE TOWER... while 2-3 marines shoot at me the whole time. I spammed /stuck and it wouldnt free me, till i finally killed it and blinked out. The RT must have blocked bullets or something.

    Well, i pretty much suck at NS, except for i'm an above-average Skulk. My main skill was as a permanent Gorge back in the days of 1.04, but that's gone now, i lost my skillz. Bah.
