I had a battle this morning that while the actual numbers are nothing to brag about, it was the trash talking and who ended up with the top score that was highly satisfying.

I was in my Ishizuchi in a T4 battle. Big Race map. I started on the upper right side of the southern end of the map. I had a player in a Charleston cruiser beside me. As we moved forward, I aimed to go between the first and second island and swing left between them so I could fire on nearly any opposing ship coming at us. I would then be broadside to the oncoming bot fleet.

I made my left turn and had nearly cleared the islands when a bot DD nearly land in my lap. This forced me to turn south and head back into our base area to avoid being torpedoed. I destroyed that DD and was able to turn back westward, to the south of all the islands. Because of the battle conditions I just continued to travel west firing on any ship I could target.

I ended up in the western pocket of islands wildly turning as I battled it out with the remaining ships.

The Charleston player ended up having to face a BB (The bot Ishizuchi) and CR alone on the eastern side. About three quarters of the way through the battle he started making smart comments. The first one was:

“Is our premium BB still running away?” (I had the only premium BB)

Then near the end. “Solo killed the Ishizuchi, take that BB!”

While he could have meant that toward the bot, I’m pretty sure he meant that toward me since I “ran away” leaving him to face the bot Ishizuchi alone.
I never said a word to him or anyone in chat, I was too busy fighting. I rammed the last bot (BB) in our base for the win.

When the score came up, I laughed. I had top score, by a wide margin, with four bots killed. So much for his claim that I was running away.

I had another battle very similar to this about a month ago, in my Fuso. One player trash talking me horribly, making all sorts of wild claims that I was hiding and running away and camping. All the while he was hiding behind an island while making these claims. When the battle was over, I was top dog by a long shot with five kills and he was near the bottom with no kills. I nearly snorted because I laughed so hard.

It’s this type of battle that is particularly satisfying to me. They get to eat their words when the battle score totals come up. I just wish I could see their faces when the numbers hit them.
