I unlocked Emile’s helmet in Avatar rewards last night by scoring a Killtacular in Griffball. To get a Killtacular, you have to kill five enemies in a row five seconds within one another. Since teams on most maps are between 4-8, this is a little difficult. I did it in a 4 vs. 4 match, using my fist. Griffball is a game where your run at the other team with hammer and swords, and try to dunk a bomb into a tiny hole in the ground on the other side of the map, which will then explode, scoring you one point and killing you in the process. Everyone dog-piles onto the guy with the bomb, who has a little extra health and can hit a little harder with his fist, but has no other weapons. Typically, you can only kill him with a sword hit, or hit him with the hammer twice, but he has three players hopefully backing him up.
For my streak, I killed off the bomb carried with my hammer after my teammate weakened him with his and died in the process, then scooped up the ball and made a run for it. The first guy on me came at me with a sword, and I punched him to death in his stupid helmet-head. Same for the second guy, and the third. That brought me up to four, and dunking the bomb scored me my last kill with an explosion and an avatar award. It was kind of like Roadhouse with punching and explosions in the place of kicking. I still lost, but I didn’t care after that. What made it so sweet was the apparent lag the game had. An enemy was killing me a medium range with a weapon that only works at close range. I almost thought of dropping out, but stayed on, and now I have a helmet no one can ever take away from me.
