What role do you usually play?


So when you're playing MLG with a team (or even your team), what role do you take up?

Main Slayer
Fight to live another day! The main slayer’s job is to kill, a lot. They are charged with controlling one or more of the power weapons and look to the objective last. By trying for kills first and foremost, the main slayer makes the rest of his team’s job a lot easier. They typically have these traits:
- Superb BR
- Power Weapon Master
- Confident
- Play-Maker




Support
Help me! Support players do a little bit of everything. While they may end up with the most flag captures, they may also end up with the most kills. Supporting your teammates means stepping into fights where it’s needed and not stepping on toes. If you know that you are not the first option to grab the sniper rifle, don’t grab it! A strong support player enjoys using the battle rifle above all else. Here are some traits of a successful support player:
- Team Shooter
- Main Communicator
- Encouraging


Objective
It’s a rough job, but someone has to do it. The thankless position of any Halo team is just as difficult than any other. While we remind you that a good teammate can assume any position, the objective player’s role is straightforward: you put yourself in a position to rack up objective time or grab that flag. Here are some traits that indicate a strong objective player:
- Team Player
- Supreme Awareness
- Melee Master
- Does whaterver they can to WIN
- Fluid Movement





Note*
You can also basically have a mixture varying through games.
One game you can be the slayer, the other, support.
If this happens commonly, you're a Slayer/Support.

I would say support more then anything however I go to objective here and there.



PM, VM, or IM me for help with the FH forums about:
The GnA Section, about Graphics in general, or just to talk about something

I'll always respond :D

Oh and add me on Xbox Live if you want im a pretty fun guy to play with once you get to know me :3.

As much as I try to not be the objective in the game because I find it boring I usually end up being it... :( If not then I'm usually a supporter if I have better players on my team but if I'm going in alone I usually am the main slayer lol
