Everyone Knows If You Have a Super or Not, Use That to Your Advantage
Destiny 2: Countdown Multiplayer Tips and Tricks
One new thing that Bungie decided to not only do for Countdown, but for all Destiny 2 Crucible modes, is provide an information bar on the top of the screen that lets you know when a player has their super, and what super they have. This may seem like a small addition, but it really changes the level of mind games you can play with your opponents.
When you get your super, whether it be the Arcstrider’s staff, the Dawnblade’s flaming swords, or the Striker’s evolution into an electrified juggernaut, it will pop up on the top of the screen. That can either make you a target or a person to be avoided, both of which can be used to steer players to exactly where you want them.
If you’re being pursued, lead the enemy towards an ambush where your allies can pick them off. Alternatively, you can use the knowledge of your super, especially if it’s one that covers a wide area, to flush out players. If a bomb is planted in a small room, the defending team may not want to fight you in there, and they’ll be forced to flank you outside, which is the perfect opportunity to set up a trap. Remember, you don’t have to actually use a super to be dangerous when you have one.
