10 Hilarious Ways To Troll People In Online Games

7. Kill Stealing

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxAZ-DQyEDI Kill stealing is so satisfying when you're doing it, and so frustrating when you're the one having it done to you. When you've spent so long stalking your prey, and then some joker dives in and mercilessly slaughters them before your very eyes, it's both jolting and extremely annoying. But turnabout is fair play, and so if you can do it yourself, collecting some easy kills in the process, why not? More recent games in the Call of Duty series have tried to combat this somewhat, by awarding "assist points" to those who help fell an enemy, but it's hardly a scientific calculation; how's about awarding points based on who caused the most damage, rather than who fired the fatal bullet? Still, this is a great way to wind your team-mates up, especially if you can lurk from the safety of the shadows, sneak in to save their butt, and then slink off again, jumping up the leader-board while your pal gets a few assist points at most...
