Hydrae better stay to the back of the pack that's charging forward as Sofa King mows them down with that Gatling. Maybe play dead for a few as the body parts settle, then jump up and squirt the cat piss into Sofa King's eyes point blank before he runs him through with the cutlass.

But, at 15 feet, those bullets are going to tear through some flesh pretty easily. This one is going to be tough for Hydrae. Need to know how accurate he is under pressure with a Super Soaker filled with cat piss.

Holy shit. 15 feet, not a problem. Start cranking at go and he’s dead! Easy

**Buehler445** · 08-02-2018, 10:57 PM

Yeah I like sofa here unless the thing jams.

NJChiefsFan · 08-02-2018, 11:10 PM

Hydrae needs to be at the end of the line and hope Sofa King sends 2.5 bullets into the first 20 people. Really playing dead is a good idea. Gets you out of the line of fire and Sofia King may not see the ploy as he is spending all his bullets.

Sofa is dead before he can crank off all his loads. 15ft apart and barns aren’t 4ft wide, sofa has one line of fire for a few seconds before he bleeds out

Let's be real, at least 10 of those people are not leaving the venue without harm.

Hydrae better grab a human shield and follow them in.

Hydrae · 08-03-2018, 08:42 AM

Gatling guns fire in one direction only and cannot be used to sweep at all. All I need to do is step to the side or, better yet, take the 5 minute preparation time to get into the loft. Then it is a pretty simple matter to drop down beside or behind SK and run him through.

Not sure what I need this squirt gun for.

**kysirsoze** · 08-03-2018, 08:51 AM

Pretty sure Hydrae can cover 14 ft in the time it takes Soda King to crank up the gun. Add to that the decoys and no strafing ability and I see no way this doesn't end with a sword in Sofa King's gut.

Is the gun already aimed at Hydrae?

He has 25 seconds to get it in place. Good luck getting a bead on the real me.

Actually, per the rules, everyone is handed their weapon at t=0, and then they have to aim it or whatever. He finds out 25 seconds before the match what the weapons, venue, and distances are.

Still think it is a pretty simple matter of dropping and rolling to the side at t=0. While he takes out my doppelgangers I am moving up beside him. This will end quickly with me standing in a smokey barn with Sofa at my feet bleeding out.

A lot of the 25 seconds will be spent identifying Hydrae in the crowd.
