As we all know, we have some great stories that we want to tell our grandchildren about. This thread is not about that. This thread is about our greatest failures. Without failure, there is nothing to learn from. So with that, I ask everyone to please post on the wall of shame...

I will be the first.

Yesterday, I thought I would give it a go against Cerberus. Bronze. Firebase Dagger. I figured since I had been pretty successful on Silver and Gold (I'm no rookie), I would be able to take them on, head on, with my Human Soldier level 7. I was wrong...

Let's just say that they showed me the door at wave 3... 2/4 hacking objectives completed.... Then I died.

Silver Reapers. Wave 9, i was left alone after half mobs were dead. (Batarian Sentinel)

Dealed with them like a boss, but died cause of Banshee's warp. Warp!

Them or an unmanned turret.

[Badpanzer]

Been killed by a turret after a wave was completed. :/

[maxtofunator]

Gold wave 1, grenade death... which is bad because I can actually play gold, but those grenades are honestly the hardest part

Ug yes, I ran verse gold reapers on my Geth Infiltrator. I was tearing everything apart quite well but a ravager got really close and ruptured its swarmer glands. I killed the ravager and instantly died to swarmers, got rezed, died again to swarmers before my shield could even go up, got rezed again used a ops pack, died nearly instantly to more swarmers from a second ravager. I eventually managed to die my way into cover. Annoying as hell.

[THE NOOBIE NOOB WHO TYPES IN CAPS]

Died to swarmer. Last man standing.
Let n7 20 play silver with us, died every wave, gave up at wave 5/6

[Grottski]

Wave 9 gold, geth on dagger playing as geth engineer and last one alive with two hunters and a rocket trooper left. Killed two hunters but rocket trooper got me with only a sliver of health left... and no medigel

[TheEldrazi]

Sprinting across the map to safety and walked across a random cannibal grenade. Boom

[Atrocity]

Batarian Sentinel with a Kishock VI. Luckily I decided to test him first on bronze. Saved myself a lot of embarrassment that way. Because not being able to hit a wall next to you with it might be frowned upon on silver and gold...

That's nothing to be ashamed of. The banshee's warp is very deadly. Especially if you're not the host, it can go through walls due to lag sometimes. And if you get hit by it, it's like a 5 or 6 second damage over time effect that can kill you if you're low enough on health. Not to mention during those additional seconds, you won't be able to regenerate shields due to taking damage.

I can't count the amount of times I've died to it on gold because I didn't pop a survival pack.

Oh don't worry, I've died from warp after popping a survival pack. Got to love that fraction of a second delay it has... Though with crappy connections, it's possible to get killed even if the pack has restored you to full health.

Acid bath. Yeah..., not even an enemy.

I think most everyone has died by the damn warp.  And yeah the the delay on those packs has gotten me killed way to often.

I totally feel your pain.  Did this same thing just last night.  All I will say is that it wasn't pretty.  Never using that thing again.

Gold today.

Shot a Cobra at a couple of Atlases and accompanying infantry. Missed. Fired a second one, but before impact I heard that familiar whining sound of another Cobra in the air, which hit what I was aiming at. Two wasted. They would have come in handy later on.

I have many stories like this. I either hit spectacularly with the Cobra, or fail miserably.

Silver, White, Geth. One month ago, more or less. Me asari adept with carnifex 4 or 5, doesn't matter. Teammates: Krogan, Vanguard and Infiltrator. Me and the infil stayed upstares, camping spot. The krogan and vanguard did what they do best, charged like crazy. They died quite a bit during the round. And I'm thinking to myself - Oh God, this isn't bronze you noobs!

So, wave 7 or 8, can't remember, but there is no Primes. All 4 camping upstares. Wave start, vanguard charge and die from a group of hunters and pyros. Me - that's what you get for charging all spawn by yourself! Krogan went downstairs inside and start meleeing everyting. He did okay, for a bit. Me and the infil are working on the LZ. Krogan went down on the other side of the map, behind the farming room. I'm still working on the LZ, when I hear "teammate went offline" and I was like . The infil was here 5 seconds ago! He went to revive the krogan, but didn't make it.

I am all by myself, thinking - now is the time to show these noobs how you clear the wave! Continue to work on the LZ, checking every direction so I won't be flanked. Large group down the ladder and 2 or 3 rocket troopers on the LZ. I'll be soon overrun, fallback! Went downstairs, inside, when the upload objective is. Held them down a bit, all coming from the LZ, when I noticed I'm almost out of ammo. Can't see any enemies upstairs, so I went to the ammo crate, It's 5 meters from me. Sprint down, reload, turn right and what a sight - 3 pyros, 2 hunters, 2 rockets, 3 meters away. Warped one hunter for my bioxplosion, turn right again and , another large group of pyros, hunters and rockets up the stairs. I never died so fast in any match I played till this game! I still have a chance, medigel, quick rocket and I'm done! Just stand up to my feet and instantly went down again.

Well, you'll show to other noobs how to clear a wave....another time

Haha. Same happened to me once. Okay, twice.

I still have no idea how I did that.

You get that when you are killed by running over the acidic remains of a ravager

[dima_che]

Just happened.
Wireless keyboard. Batteries ended, watched my team got slaughtered.

[Biotic_Warlock]

Server disconnection is the biggest insta-kill.

[BoomDynamite]

My group died once on a hacking attempt on Wave 10 on Gold when we only had one small sliver left between us and the credits. None of us had any gel.

[SilencedScream]

Extraction.
One second left. I was picked up by a banshee.

It didn't kill me (since at 0:00 everything around you dies), but it prevented us from getting full extraction on my first ever completed gold round a few weeks ago.
