Its a cheese, you are avoiding having to take out the Knights that spawn after ogres die.
Avoiding a mechanic is a cheese.

its not a cheese if you pop the orbs before the knights get there, its basically the same thing.
-
you win

Incorrect it's a strategy. The Knights still spawn no matter what. You just better hope you can do it in time before they reach you. I always end up killing the Knights while I'm detonating my bomb.

Edited by tgpumpkin: 10/26/2015 3:46:47 PMincorrect, it's a strategy. Cheese is abusing the mechanics. That's not what is happening here. All you're doing is timing the deaths of the ogres so you can get to the orbs faster than the knights. You're not abusing mechanics. How is it any different than leaving the boomer knights alive so you don't spawn wizards in Crota hard? Or going to the shelf instead of using the lower room and dealing with the gatekeeper that's invincible? By your logic you should kill the boomers and take on the wizards. Or just dodge the gatekeeper knight down below and put up with him. Just because it isn't the same way as kill ogre, turn around kill/snipe knights doesn't mean its wrong/cheese. I'll be the first one to call a cheese a cheese. This isn't a cheese.

"It wasnt done my way so its a cheese" lmao.

Teams are making sure they don't kill knights.... By avoiding a mechanic you are cheesing. Crota, vog... Ppl avoided mechanics... They were cheeses. As for ledge on crota that was not a cheese. That was finding a safe place to stand. This is skipping a step of the fight. I believe it is a cheese, that's my opinion. I'll continue doing the way that I think isn't hard but teams seem to not be able to do.
-
Agreed! God I can't believe the straws players cling to to keep the from getting patched. It's pathetic lol
-
so not killing the adds after you detonate the orbs is cheese? so far oryx does that for you, or is it the orbs that do the killing of the whole place?
-
it's still a step in the fight! Those knights can still kill YOU while you're in the orb. It's a cheese in your opinion because it's not the one way you've done it. You're not looking at it from a big picture scale. This was a brilliant strategy to whoever discovered it. So finding a ledge on Crota as a safer place to stand is NOT a cheese but finding a safer place to stand in Kings Fall up above IS a cheese. You're contradicting yourself here, I'm sorry.
-
You aren't skipping a mechanic, all you're doing is detonating the bombs before the Knights have time to get to said bombs and absorb them.
-
EXACTLY.
-
Yeah...so when are you running for president?
-
Who said killing knight is mandatory? Game mechanics is detonating the orb. People are doing it. if people find a way to detonate the orb without sitting there and by some method that game developers didn't intend, that would be cheese.
-
Like on hm crota, people went top middle to be safe and kill the knight. Thats not cheese. Its oryx its a tactic no cheese
-
To be fair, the cheese/ no cheese debate on that strat raged on for months.
