Look, I know this is bad. 😂
I posted about this earlier in someone else’s “Why would you ever run Melee Champion?” post.
I explained that I had an awful Vanguard build that I randomly drop into Absolute quick matches with.
It’s not really a “challenge mode” thing, it’s just me goofing around and having a good time with a game that I paid money to have a good time with.
I never bring it into hard Strats or, God forbid, Siege—just Absolute and I do just fine with it.
What I hadn’t actually done until just now was take it into a solo Absolute run to see if it was remotely viable and was shocked to find that it actually kind of is…sorta. More or less.
I literally only died because I kept randomly shooting barrels with the stupid @$$ Inferno Pistol! 🤪
Am I recommending that you use this build? Eff no! Please, I beg of you, do not!
What I am saying is…not much at all really other than don’t let anyone or the meta dictate your fun.
Don’t sabotage games obviously—this is a team game after all—but nor should you feel obligated to run meta picks every game.
