He wanted to join the Failboat, but we were afraid he was too fail, even for us.

I played a game a few weeks ago with a guy who, I would presume was an experienced l4d or l4d2 versus player, but not realism. Ran straight to the witch, walked around behind her, and unloaded with an autoshotty. He died. It was pretty funny.

Yeah, seen that a few times with people who didn't know RVS took the crown out. It's hilarious each time.

If you fire fast enough, you should be able to drop a witch with an autoshotty before she activates, even on realism. Witch only has 1000 HP and takes extra damage from shotguns. You can't crown her, but you can still drop her.

That said, it's still a lot safer to simply headshot her and gun her down. Crowning is for showing off.

AFAIK you CANNOT kill a witch before activation with ANY method in RVS. Even shotgun spam from an auto doesn't seem to do it. It's almost like Valve gave the witch temp immunity for her activation period or something.

Pounced - Hunter is on you.

Leaped - Jockey is on you.

Smoked - Smoker has you.

Charged - Charger is on you.

Boomed - Boomer got you.

Good pop - good job getting that boomer
