The Combat Axe being scrubby...
NOTE!!!: IF YOU'RE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO POST BEFORE READING A THREAD... PLEASE CONSIDER READING MY WHOLE THREAD BEFORE POSTING.
Hi, I've been having plenty of knife matches...
I'm a beast at 1 v 1 match, 50% of the time in 8v8 (cus I didn't get to be Ace
).
Within these matches, I've discovered something disturbing... The Combat Axe being scrubby...
Now... don't post your replies too fast because I'm not done discusing.
The Combat Axe is ONLY scrubby when it's in certain hands... most people use the combat axe/ shovel using the right click attack. The right click attack on these weapons makes it so easy for me to kill them in a counter attack (I dodge their strike, and right click with knife in their head/body).
This is how the Combat Axe becomes overpowered:
It's overpowered if it's in the hands of people with the same melee skill level as me or higher... When the wielder uses ONLY left click and always aim for the head. The Combat Axe's left click attack's damage is the same Knife's right click attack, but it's more efficient (faster) and longer range... That's basicly how the Combat Axe is used properly (most people don't know this), that way it's devistating.
If you enter the Axe User's personal space, he left click attacks you in the head, you are dead most of the times.
When the Combat Axe is used this way, it's superior against lower skill leveled Axers/Shovelers and "Pro Knife Users".
Some of you are probably thinking that the Shovel has the same features too, you're wrong. The shovel's left click attack does 90 damage to the head.
It'll be great if they'd make a TRUE knife only match... knives only, no Axe, No Shovel, No Katana... This won't be ridiculous if people are at an even match, it's like Communism, no one is rich no one is poor.
NOW REMEMBER... I'M NOT SAYING THE COMBAT AXE IS TOTALLY SCRUB, IT'S ONLY SCRUB WHEN IT'S USED PROPERLY.

Also the axe is not over powered, let me smack you across the face with a combat axe, lets see how well you do eh?
I'm just pointing this out... I'm not saying "REMOVE COMBAT AXE!! NERF COMBAT AXE!!"...
The Combat Axe is only good if it's used properly. I swear, it does 100 damage when left click to the head. -

I not saying you want it removed, but you just asked it to be removed from the knife mode, a knife is good if its used properly. I swear, it does 100 damage when left click to the head. -

no, knife does 90 damage to the head left click...
Not removing it from Knife Only Matches (to be more specific, it's Melee Weapons Only Match)... I said I really wish they had a "Nothing Else But Knife" Match. -

The challenge has reached it's limit when it comes to using knife against pro combat axe user.
Peace out I'm going to bed.
This is from my personal experience btw (every fact in this thread is not a lie, my nose is not erecting)... -
I use the axe mainly for this fact. Easy to kill with. However, it does take some skill to get those headshots that matter. Even a knife's stab can equal to it. The downside of the axe is the lesser power overall and the weight that is added to it.
Any weapon in the right hands can be devastating. But I see your point, but it doesn't make a weapon any less so. Otherwise AWM's would be noobish for their general 1 hit kills.
As a personal favour please don't say scrub. I get that enough from the MW2 noobs. -..-; -
Hm, true, but not that much people can use it properly. And IMO, when well times, I can land 6 or 7 Kills Combo with the stab. Not with the slash.
Also, you might want to get some coupons. 50 coupons = perm AXE. I have two, and I highly recommand at least one. -

yea true and all but the shovel does 90 but WAY more range the range is abit 2 unfair if they recued it abit it would make the game better also with the shovel ranges alot of ppl noob shovel (left click only) using the range so u cant hit them but they can hit u (even if u use an axe u cant hit him) also if u noticed if u get hit u stop moving so with the range of that once they hit u left click by the time u able 2 hit him he hit u a second time (to kill u with the second slash
EDIT: also knifes and axe r the best the only reason they put axe for copons most likly is to make it more fair to fight shovelers -
no, knife does 90 damage to the head left click...
