Post medals and what you think they mean. Like:
The gang's all here - no deaths on your team.
Either killing the enemy team in a certain amount of time, or good teamshooting? Does not seem to mean the same thing as D1's wrecking ball as I've gotten it with only a single kill personally.

Same here. Still trying to figure out "Fight Me!"

Kills are counted differently

You essentially get kills for participating in the kill now, not just for the killing blow.

Yeah totally aware, which is why I'm confused how it works in D2. I've literally respawned, jumped into a fight and defeated a single enemy, and gotten Wrecking Ball. Whatever it means it's very different from the previous usage (which was killing the entire enemy team in a round of Trials).

Could be a bug too, maybe you aren't supposed to get it if you get killed?

Gang's all here means you're all alive at the end, not that you had no deaths.

Guuhhh there are so many. Between all the medals and Chatty Shaxxy, I could barely stayed focused on the game. I'm pretty sure I remember getting ALL of these.
Pin Cushion - Killed by hunter melee.
Now you see me... - Dodged a Titan shoulder charge
Whoopsy Doodle - Fell off the map
Ghost Town - Touch all three control zones without firing a shot
Haha U Dum - Pop your super but never use it.
Joke's On You - Game ends before your super charges.
Younicorn - Hunter knife headshot death
Pente Party - 5 shots, 5 kills with fusion rifle
Pente Pooper - 5 shots, 0 kills with fusion rifle
Party Pooper - Take power ammo, immediately die
Goodneeeeesssss - Be named ManKitten and go on a 5 death streak
(No but seriously, Played with Ragashingo and Fire Thief earlier and we wrecked all. It was a blast. 3 straight hours, only 4 losses I think. 3 wins by Mercy.)

I saw a medal that was something like "I live here now" pop up quite a few times while tearing it up in control. No idea what it could be though. I may have to start streaming again just so I can go back and see what happened before the medal popped.

I think it's getting a kill while in a point or something. But great idea, I should stream tonight

In Cold Blood - seems to be a revenge kill?
I got a medal for killing a super with my super (golden gunned a phoenix), but I don't remember what it was called. "One in a Million" maybe?

I think Cold Blood might be a revenge kill a significant amount of time after being killed. I agree with Claude that I believe Blood for Blood is a revenge medal.

I don't think it's a revenge medal, but an avenging medal. I've gotten it for killing someone who just killed a teammate. Not sure if they killed me earlier, though...

Blood for blood - I think it's for trading kills. The net code flaws have medals now.

lol - I think it's just a renamed 'Payback' medal. (I got one right after respawning and killing the guy who killed me.) Would be funny if you were right, though. ;)

I figured the "Best served cold" was the payback medal since I was getting revenge.
I've noticed "Blood for Blood" pop up when I've avenged a fallen teammate.

Here are some that I've seen...
Quick Strike-
Get a kill within the first 15 seconds of a match.
Ruthless-
Kill the same person three times (in one life?).
Combined Fire-
An enemy succumbed to fire from you and a teammate.
Blood For Blood-
Avenge a teammate that's just been killed.
I Live Here Now-
Get a Kill while standing on or near a point (But I have seen it pop up when no enemies were killed, so it might just mean that you hold a certain point for a certain amount of time).
Unyielding-
Get a 10 kill streak.
Dodge this-
Kill a Hunter while they're Dodging.
Power Overwhelming (Gold Medal)-
Have double the enemy's score when you hit 50, or Mercy is called.
Dominant Advantage-
Hold a majority of the zones for a period of time.
Cold Fusion-
Get three kills with a Line Fusion Rifle (or just a Fusion Rifle?)
Lethal Cadence-
Get Five Kills with a Pulse Rifle.
Flagbearer-
Win a control match.
Fight Me!-
Get the most weapon kills in a match.
Undefeated (Gold medal)-
Complete a match with at least ten kills and no deaths.
Never in Doubt-
Hold the lead for the entire match.

Can confirm, definitely works with regular fusion rifles as well

Are you sure there's a ten kill minimum? I'm pretty sure this popped up the other night, but the best I've gone is 9-0.

Is this not First Blood (first kill of the game)?
Ruthless-

Pretty sure it's just a renamed Merciless (5 kills without a death), actually.

I've gotten this one after seeing someone else pop up on the kill feed first.

Interesting. So does that mean there IS no more First Blood medal?

It would certainly be preferable if the bounties changed to needing a Quick Strike instead of First Blood.
I think this just means the spawns flipped.

...I want this to be true so bad.

Barricade Breaker - Kill the titan behind their barricade? I saw this on Cruel's video, he ran through the barricade & punched the guardian down.

I assume it's killing them while they are standing in their own Rift.

It's either stopping a Super before they kill anyone, or stopping it with your own (More likely the latter).
