I'm sure a lot of people who are MLG and play crucible a lot know this, but I wanna know, how many of you out there use emotes in trials or in normal crucible to give you the edge? Yes, that's right, I said [i]edge[/i]. A small handy trick pros often do is to go to the corner of walls and sit down or emote, which effectively puts them in a 3rd person view, allowing them to scan for those annoying hardscopers or just anyone waiting to shotgun you in the face, without coming in their radar, if you are far away. I am aware many people know this, but just wanted to throw this out there to help people not knowing this handy trick learn.
I want to hear feedback, curious to know how many of you do do it and if you do, do you add anything else or combo it up with some other trick for some godly crucible play? If you have any other tricks up your sleeve, do feel free to leave it down below, so others may also get good in competitive, and hopefully not stay lighthouse virgins like me.... (._.)(;_;)

"emotes tricks" are the last thing that will increase your negative k/d
-
I do sometimes when needed. Also dancing at ammo boxes for two seconds while 360 scanning for enemies.
-
Always sit. If people see you waving and dancing randomly they assume you are peeking around the corner and they back off.

I use it to glitch around the corner and I bow people to troll

All the time

I got the score emote today, and now I use it every single damn time in pvp XD
-
Been doing them since year 1. It helped so much during year 2 during the slow paced sniping meta we had.
-
Constantly
-
The "pointer" emote is helpful playing strikes that have an objective. Cuz most team mates aren't on mics.

I definitely do this, especially in trials. knowing where someone is helps immensely with call outs and strategy. Other useful stuff that won't win your card but can certainly help is team shot as best you can. Obviously two guns is better than one and it seems simple, but just sticking together (not right on top of each other) is always helpful. Make sure you're playing off each other as well. If your teammate pops a super, be there to snag orbs. Lastly is just communication. Generally speaking, a silent Trials team is a losing Trials team. That of course assuming you're not god tier players or something.
