I don't know if it's a highlight, but... (Destiny)

Speedracer and I had an unexpected game. Ottermack got disconnected as we landed, so we fully anticipated things to end horribly.

In the end we won 5-0 despite being down a man, with a combined total of 19 kills and 1 death. I was so close to a Mark of the Unbroken I felt genuinely bad for the guys we went up against.

Other than that, we had a solid run at the Lighthouse. We were lucky enough to get Black Shield maybe 3 times, which happens to be both mine and Speedracer's favourite map, and I could see why - he's a scary sniper.

We had a couple of very close rounds including two in a row that ended in a 1v3. The first time, all Ottermack and I could do was watch helplessly as Speedracer Hawkmooned 2 guys while the third wandered aimlessly into a Lightning Grenade Otter had left him as a present. The very next round saw Ottermack Shotgun 3 guys in 5 seconds as the last man standing.

My personal favourite moment was purely accidental. I was last man standing, freshly out of Shotgun ammo when their final guy popped around the corner. He threw a magnetic grenade at me but missed, and I lunged at him with my Melee in the desperate hope I could punch him out before he shotgunned me. I hit him once, and he was dead. Whaaaat?! I couldn't figure out what had happened, until the other guys told me his grenade hadn't missed. He'd stuck me, my melee had given me a Flame shield, which saved me from the detonation. Of course, as I was stood right next to him when it went off he wasn't so lucky. Oops.
