It was probably one of the best days I've had in months! There were plenty of fun, close matches, but at least this time, I actually won most of them. I really don't know where to start: I've got so much to tell! Let's see... I started today by squadding up with some guys with NKU and an 0.H guy. We played a fantastic Skirm and I went 23/1 - my best score of the night. Overall, all my matches today have been great. I achieved pretty impressive scores in all of them, like 16/2, 19/4, 23/1, or 11/0. There's one particular match that I distinctly remember. I was squadded with Bright Steel, SiraJKnight, and some other cool dudes. The match itself was so frantic and fun - it was the kind of match that made me wish I had a capture card. So much blood was spilled by my knives. There isn't a much better feeling than seeing multiple unbroken Knife kills in the killfeed. Many 'splosions, many stabs, many pew pews. I ended up going 19/4 - the best K/D on the team. I was feeling particularly ballsy, so I decided to run my Officer Minja fit, with a Luis' CR and Nothi's Knives. Unfortunately, I was concentrating so hard on not dying that we lost the match by a hair. And yes, I did lose my Officers when I ran straight into a Minmando, thinking it was a Caldari Light Frame that had just ran around a corner. The Knives are very nice. The charge-up time is basically non-existent, and the movement speed increase whilst charging the Knives is mild but noticeable. The extra damage isn't as noticeable as one might think though, because there aren't many things the Ishukone Nova Knives don't OHK anyway. Irritatingly, I entered a Skirm with a full squad where our team's MCC only had about half-armour left, whilst the enemys' was still on about half-shields. But, oh, what a close match! Our squad fought hard, and we managed to capture all the Null Cannons. The match ended in a victory, despite our MCC not even having a single tick left! I had to dry my hands on a towel from all the sweat that had accumulated whilst trying to win that match! I feel so special I made into dries' blog
I went like 23-10 that match despite the terrible lag. Must have knifed at lest 7-8 ghosts that round.

Day 11 - Casual Stabbin'
Today was a nice relaxing day...
UNTIL I STARTED PLAYING DUST!!!
I jest, I jest. Today was a very good, chilled, enjoyable day. All I played were a few pub Skirms, but they were all very well balanced and fun. I started out by being thrown into a match vs Pocket Rocket Girl and Bud Greenly, and the match was fairly fierce. In the end, I lost, but it was by a nano-hair. I went 20/7 - best K/D on the team - and stabbed Pocket and Bud multiple times.
Scotty put my squad into a few matches vs DAAAA BEAST and his corsy lot, and fun is always had when fighting them! In one of the matches, I went 13/2, and in another, I went 32/5. I stabbed DAAAA BEAST right in his rump. BEAST has assured me that he will upload the match where I went 32/5, because it was a damn fun match, so keep an eye out for that!
Finally, I ended the day by going 22/1 in a Skirm on Highlands in the same match that PARKOUR PARCTIONER went 31/7.
I'm becoming more famous for my knifing. More people are sending me messages about it, and there are several references to me as a Minja on the forums. You must understand that this means a great deal to me, so naturally, I'm ecstatic!
I'm even showing my head in PC! Soon, I will win the total respect of the PC community; I guarantee you that. Do you think I can achieve that by Day 30? I think I can. You know what though? It would have been all thanks to you guys; my readers. Without your support, my blog - along with myself - would have faded into anonymity. You have molded me (whether it seems like it or not). You have given me the will to carry on my journey as a Minja, even when [url=https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2738877#post2738877]times were hardpurl], and you have made me who I am today! So, for that, I want to say 'Thank you!'.
Damn, I wish I had a capture card...

I'm glad I was able to squad up with you. I had my worst day of Dust so far. I think I managed a 12-6 in that match we faced DAAAA BEAST.
I don't know how you run around in a minja suit these days. I don't even have a combat suit set up with my minja. Just a go fast uplink suit and a hack suit.

Day 12 - 'Notice Me, Senpai!'
Fun fun fun in Warlords 1.1!
I played a few rounds of the new mode - Acquisition - and I have mixed opinions, to be honest. Remember that these are the subjective opinions of a Minja though.
Acquisition plays out a bit like Dom and a bit like Bush, both of which are not the Minja's strong suits. It's definitely not as tactical as Skirmish, and there are often lots of easy and irritating ways to die. So many people concentrated at one objective can make it difficult to flank properly. My best score in Acquisition was 11/0, and my worst was 12/3. Overall, I still prefer Skirmish, but I'll carry on testing Acquisition for a bit longer. The thing that worries me - and almost tempted me into transgression - is that I know I would have #R3KT in Acquisition if I were running my Assaults. Of course, I didn't actually put them on and corrupt my progress!
I participated in two PCs today - both against DMG. We lost the first round, but won the re-up, once Blitz got on and kicked our butts into shape. We were short of people for the first round though, and had to use a few dubious ringers. In the first match, I went 20/6; 2nd place! Minja, of course. In the second match, I went 9/6; 10th place. Still, I'm pleased that I was able to go K/D postive both times. I managed to stab TheD1ck again, plus a few other notable guys.
One thing I found interesting was that even though I was scanned occasionally (I was running two Proto Damps - 18DB), it was still ok, and I didn't instantly drop dead (as had been implied to me by 'the vets' )! I just hid amongst the blues until the 'YOU HAVE BEEN SCANNED' message disappeared off of my screen.
I'm really getting my act together: it's all coming together. My skills are developing even further, and I feel like I'm starting to make a good impression on people in the PC community - one of my goals. I mean, I must be, if I'm stabbing them over and over, right?
I also bought around 35M ISK's worth of Officer stuff; including about 60 Luis' CRs. I'd really appreciate it if anyone could guarantee me their unwanted Nothi's NOS-47 Nova Knives for when we can finally trade Sidearms.
Notable people encountered today: Regnier Feros, VAHZZ, Syzygiet.
Notable poeple encountered in PC today: TheD1ck (Stabbed), Pagl1u M (Stabbed), LHughes (Stabbed), Haerr (Stabbed) [I think... , Manboar Thunder Fist (Stabbed), Jarrel Thomas, Poison Diego (Stabbed).
Stay tuned... o7
P.S. I also bought Kaze Eyrou a little gift. :3 <3

Had a blast with ya bruh. You was getting scary in Acquisition man, every time I looked at the kill feed, I saw your name and the person you killed. REdonkulous. I'm sad you had to see me at my worst. Though I did have a nice 1v1 HMG match with 7th Son 7 that I won. Seems I may have to weem myself away from the Sentinel ways. yOU MUST TEACH ME THE WAYS OF THE MINJA! I'm sad and rusty!

Great fights, though having an NK duel in the middle of PC vs 0.H is not exactly straightforward. But we still managed to get a few in (bar you blowing my brains out with ACR) and they were fun
After that I was impressed to notice you made a choice to take out the NK's anytime I approached you But from your actions you are too worried about survival, and will whip out a rifle when you lose NK opportunity a true Minja kills with Nk's or dies with them though you certainly have the reactions, so trust them ..
Cool blog though, I'm glad you pointed it out, hopefully it encourages a new age of Minja's

About those duels... I'm kinda reluctant to duel in PC, and I'll probably just whip out my rifle if it's more effective because, y'know, it's PC!
But if it's Pubs or FW, you're damn right I'll accept a duel!
Even so, we did have some frantic NK moments in those PCs when you appeared out of nowhere lol.

Been running my minja in a few PC, think I'm the only knifer in our PCs. Horizons edge just got back into it and I have only had the chance to run them a little. I have done pretty good overall but the other night I had a terrible time.
What's your go to PC fit? Do you knife with cloaks often?
I usually run 3 extenders, a damp, and two complex kincats with proto ACR and NK and a scanner. (No cloak)
I'm pretty sure I was getting scanned passively the other night and didn't think to pull out my double damped fit. -smacks forehead-
I also favor city sockets over outer objectives which if I remember correctly is opposite of you... Thinking the cloak prolly has to do with that.?.?

I do use cloaks often, but am not sure how effective they are. Some games they are effective, others not so much.
Your fit looks really good, I find that a complex Myo really helps with extra mobility, so maybe try that out. And its good you have a double dampened fit to accompany your other one. I have honestly even just forgone having less than 2 unless its on a hacking specialized suit, but this is highly subjective and depends on play style.
With city sockets, you are maximizing cover that is available for use, while playing outside you are vulnerable to being spotted and easily taken out at range even while cloaked.

My kincats are a double edge sword.
One side it allows me to move throughout the socket and respond to vulnerabilities in the enemy lines and seek cover, as well as being a must for knives...
But in the city socket I believe a cal scout can still get a large enough scan range and precision to be a problem forcing damps...
The de look delay kills me! Hardly used it before, but now...

What's your go to PC fit? Do you knife with cloaks often?
I usually run 3 extenders, a damp, and two complex kincats with proto ACR and NK and a scanner. (No cloak)
I'm pretty sure I was getting scanned passively the other night and didn't think to pull out my double damped fit. -smacks forehead-
I also favor city sockets over outer objectives which if I remember correctly is opposite of you... Thinking the cloak prolly has to do with that.?.? I feel that since my knifing duel victory vs Dreis on day 7 or 8, I am qualified to give my personal perspective. ROFL

Day 13 - Paying My Dues
Oh, the pain! The agony! The sorrow! The anger! I experienced all of this whilst playing Dust 514 today.
I decided to give Acquisition another go after last time, and my opinions of it radically changed.
I hate it.
It's absloutly God-awful. It's detestable. It makes me want to curl up in a ball and die. Acquisition is an unholy combination of Domination and Ambush, with none of the tactical aspect of Skirmish that Acquisition was implied to have. All the matches of Acquisition I played were completely one-sided and and frustrating. Although that was just the matchmaking (which I'll talk about in a second), the mode itself has issues. For example, 5 minutes is far too long for an objective to be active. It makes Acquisition feel stagnant, much like Domination. There is also not enough opportunity to earn many WP, meaning that OBs are scarce. If I can help it, I will never play Acquisition ever again. #skirmishmasterrace
Now, the matchmaking. Hoy... Whatever change or modification CCP aquarHEAD made today - and I can tell that there has been a change - I implore it to be undone. The matchmaking is now horrible. I ended up losing most of my matches today in harsh stomps. It was incredibly irritating - to the point where I almost logged off.
I also lost 3 sets of Officer CR and NK in one match, which certainly did not help to improve my mood. I was ready to hit something. The lag was noticeably worse today too. I can only assume that this is what I owe the Server Gods for the enjoyment I've experienced recently.
Things started to improve a bit later on though - not much; just a little bit. I stabbed a couple dudes, sprayed a couple dudes, you know how it goes... I went 20/3 in a match against Master Kail and Pocket Rocket Girl, which I was pretty pleased with.
I also spent about 70M on Officer gear, including 70 CRs, 66 NKs, and 59 SCRs. I'm so poor now: my wallet finally dipped below 200M!
Best Nova Knife kill of the night? Uh... I, er... Hmm... Ah! I had ran out of ammo on my CR and there were no Nanohives or Supply Depots in sight. I spied with my singular rusty eye a Caldari Assault who was engaging my teammates out in the open, completely exposed. I decloaked and sprinted straight at him, head on. I have no idea why he didn't shoot me, because I'm sure he noticed me, and it was a good full 7 seconds of straight sprinting before I reached him and stabbed him in the face.
Worst fail? I spawned in my Scout MK.0, fitted with a Luis' and Nothi's, and was promptly erradiacated by a stray Core Locus Grenade.
I suspect that I haven't fully repaid my debt to the Server Gods yet, so more bad days are probably on the horizon...
Notable people encountered: Master Kail, Pocket Rocket Girl, Coochmaster Flex, Crusty Clown, Kill3r H3llh0und, sir RAVEN WING, and a couple 0.H guys, including Tards-R-Us, Doushe Gabbana, Yonkou Ifrit, and Shooter QC.
Stay tuned... o7
P.S. I've been milling over writing a Minja/Knifing guide: would that be something you guys would like me to do?

I'd love to help with that bud :) Oh and about the question Bright Steel on City sockets and what to run for minja, it varies.
Slayers city- You have a solid fit Standby speedhacker- Two damps and a Codebreaker in your low slot for quick adjustments :) For outside maps, I prefer to use my Cal Scout with a cloak and Boundless CR, not my Minja, as you scouts usually guard homepoints, and Nking a scout while rewarding, is extremely hard and rare.
07 Dreis broski, hopefully my internet gets sorted, and you can cleanse me with Minjaness :) If you want someone to share accounts of the horrors of running speedhack fits, ask me or the **** lol.

I disagree on killing Scouts being rare, anyone who has fought me in PC knows you can put a shotgun to the side of my head and I will still go for the NK kill dead Scouts are my favourite kind
Though this may be half of how my deaths stack up, the other half is scrubbery
I have all 4 Scouts at proto, but can't resist taking the Mk.0 into most battles, NKs are too fun especially in a Scout duel, one of them Vs Dreis, I got shanked, survived managed to swing about and stab him. Speedhacks.. can be messy but you don't stack a suit with codebreakers to go 1v1 everybody, deaths expected

Day 14 - Tax Evasion
Oh ho ho! I managed to be rather slippery today and avoided paying the obscene interest on my debt to the Server Gods, but only just!
Unfortunately, I only managed to play two Skirms today, and I lost both of them, but they were still pretty fun nonetheless.
The first match was vs The Dark Cloud, Gideon McAllistar, and a PFB dude. I managed to carve into The Dark Cloud's thick, juicy Commando CK.0 rump once, and sprayed him down with Six Kin ACR bullets another time. I'm also pretty sure I killed Gideon at least once. At the end of the match, I had gone 7/3 - best K/D on my team - and I recall The Dark Cloud went 12/6. There was a bit of lag, so I probably could have done even better if I had a better connection in that particular match.
The second match was very interesting. On my team was Ian The Conquer and a few 0.H guys, and the enemy team included Shotty GoBang, () and Breakin Stuff. It was an incredibly hard-fought battle, but in the end, our team conceded defeat. Regrettably, I didn't encounter Shotty the entire match, but I stabbed Breakin a few times. The lag got so bad at one point that I had to abbandon a seemingly easy Knife kill because the red was teleporting rather than running. I produced a comparatively fantastic score - 11/1 - when the next best K/D on my team was 10/8, a 1.25 K/D. Ian The Conquer went 12/10, and Shotty went 14/7.
I got ready for a PC against DMG, but irritatingly, we were all kicked from deployment and the contract disappeared from our Battle Finders. I was really looking forward to an opportunity to tangle with TheD1ck again...
Best Nova Knife kill today; when I put The Dark Cloud on my dinner table and carved him up like a Christmas Turkey - a tasty meal for all the family!
Worst fail; definitely when I tried to stab that Amarr Assault but the lag said 'lolno'.
Notable people encountered today: Shotty GoBang, Ian The Conquer, The Dark Cloud, Gideon McAllistar, Kill3r H3llh0und.
Stay tuned... o7
P.S. Apologies for the late entry: I unexpectedly ran out of time yesterday when I was almost finished writing Day 14's entry. Expecting a draft to be saved, I shut down my laptop. Naturally, a draft wasn't saved, and I had to rewrite this entry. You're looking at Day 14's revised second edition!
