My team sucked... but wow, look at this comeback!

This round of four kills was fun ‘cause the enemies made it easy:

These three were fun ‘cause I played the angles well and had excellent situational awareness.

Here’s the battle you’ve all been waiting for. My first encounter vs the infamous Thorn. Of course, my The Last Word wins!

Eh... but I only won that one out of sheer luck and an epic miss with a fusion rifle. But look here! Here, I... uh... miss my first four shots and get the kill with a bullet that was very clearly aimed at the wall. Such skill... :/

So far I’ve encountered 4 or 5 Thorns and lost once, and that was in a terrible join in progress game where I was stuck with half the enemy team flanking me. My feel of it at the moment, with an admittedly small sample size, is that Thorn is no more dangerous than any other hand cannon in the Crucible. I was surely threatened more by the IKELOS hand cannon not even counting Thorn’s current rarity. My guess is that Thorn is much better at PvE.
