Hopped in the daily to warm up and played a clutch match. Who says Hand Cannons are dead?

I don't believe they exist.
Yep, I held on to my order for like a month to get full auto.

Are you using that full-auto DIS-47 over a well-rolled Hawksaw?

Psshh. That is so last week. It's all about disconnect cheesing in ToO now. Get with the program Polygon!

Hey guys, how much of a disadvantage am I going to have being 290? Are the 300+ guys going to stomp me?
Anyone who's actually done it with pick up groups or new players wouldn't even think about calling the "new strat" an "easy" strat.
It is "easier" I guess if you are underleveled though.

Silver package has always been the superior package. I got a Gjallarhorn from one during HoW. Don't remember anything the Gold package gave me.
Not yet as it's not upgraded, but I may use a Jade Rabbit over a hawksaw In this Trials map. We'll see.
You're a brilliant and patient man. Teach me your ways.
310+?
Lol, what a trash article. How is that strat a cheese? It's simply a new strategy.

inb4 patch. i give it 2-4 weeks tops
I think this a bit different as network manipulation is more explicitly against the ToS. Expecting the ban hammer to be a bit delayed, but to hit hard when it does.

That's rather unfortunate.
Yeah Bungie HATES it when we don't play exactly how they want us to...
Well the templar side platform cheese was patched fairly quickly.
But the oracles up top cheese is still in the game.
I go back and forth about whether this strat is really "cheese". I give it a 50/50 chance that it gets patched.
Indeed, DeeJ has mentioned that network manipulation will ban people. The more they use it, the more they'll get closer to getting permabanned.

b-but Bungie said they fixed this
Still better than moldering shards
I don't see them wasting their time patching it. It is basically just as difficult to execute as the normal strategy except this just allows some under leveled guardians to stay out of the line of fire a bit more. The fact that when people get high enough level they switch back to the normal strategy shows that it's not actually easier, just safer.
That was my take-a-away. As far as Polygon articles go it wasn't bad, it actually paints the fight in a fun light, but some of his terminology and conclusions are inconsistent with the way he presents the article with his title. An actually decent Destiny article and story of the history of our strategies but presented as click bait.

I don't understand this article at all. The last sentence and the headline completely go against his conclusion that the alternate strategy has more luck involved but is good for underleveled groups, which is something I completely agree with. Way to misrepresent your position for the clicks.

no knights strat can be annoying--I think the easiest strat is two titans on daughters towers assisting with knight sniping and just running it normally
Polygon is so stupid.
There was a really good comment I saw on there, that I totally agreed with.

If you can swing it the best one I've found is blessing of light bubble on the ground in between the daughters platforms and the two floaters using ToM to absolutely wreck the ogres. They melt so fast that way and then platform people can run to the middle after killing their Knights for safety until the runner gets invincibility.
Clickbait title
I said he should post a video of him 'carrying' a few first timers using the strategy. Since it's a cheese/exploit it shouldn't take more than 10-15 minutes.

Worse than final round
Yep this is the best if you've got a couple Titans for super every round.
Here is the strategy we used for HM Oryx, and I don't understand how the no-knights strat is better or safer:
1) 2 Titans are floaters, standing in between the daughters platforms on the ground. Pop a bubble just before Oryx slams, and shred all 4 Ogres with ToM
2) The 3 people on platforms help with their Ogre, but mainly take down their Knight that spawns
3) The second the relic runner has the relic, everyone runs to the middle Titan bubble and just waits for the immunity to get to you. Take no risks. Just wait.
4) Once the relic runner has slammed and gotten to the center, 5 people focus the yellow bar knight, while the 6th person takes down the last red bar knight that was left (in this case, it was a golden-gun hunter that took him down). Tethers and supers also help on the yellow bar.
5) Stagger Oryx. (5 people should be able to stagger him if the 6th is still trying to drop the red bar knight
6) After stagger, spend 10-15 seconds clearing adds.
7) Run to bombs, but try to countdown so everyone enters them simultaneously.
8) rinse and repeat.
I don't understand how letting the Ogres roam, hoping you can drop all 4 at the same time, and jumping down into the shit while knights are roaming is any safer or better
