Seeking Senior Assassin Strategies and Stories!
Hey everyone! Hope you’re all doing well.
As I’m heading into my final semester of high school, my school is hosting a game of Senior Assassin. I’d love to hear from anyone who has experience with this. Specifically, I’m looking for:
-
Any effective strategies, tips, or advice you’d recommend for playing? I want to balance having fun with the goal of winning!
-
Any memorable stories related to this type of competition, whether it’s from your own experience or someone else’s.
Just to give you a bit more context, we’re playing in teams of 6, using an app to track locations, and we’ll be required to wear goggles if we’re not playing at the moment. I’m open to investing in some quality gear (we’re using water guns), and I’m ready to get a little creative with tactics, as long as it stays within reasonable limits.
Thanks in advance for your input, and have a great day!
Hey there! Senior Assassin sounds like a blast! Here are some strategies, tips, and a couple of stories from similar experiences that might help you out:
Strategies and Tips:
Team Coordination: Make sure your team has clear roles—who’s on lookout, who plans ambushes, etc. Communication is key, especially when you’re tracking opponents. Use group chats to stay connected.
Stealth is Key: When you’re on the hunt, blend in! Wear darker clothing and choose your environments wisely. Parks, school hallways, and other enclosed spaces can be great for surprise attacks.
Location Knowledge: Familiarize yourself with the layout of your school and surrounding areas. Know the good hiding spots, escape routes, and safe zones.
Camouflage Your Gear: Make your water guns less obvious when you’re not actively hunting. Cover them with bandanas, or keep them in a bag.
Fake Outs: Use distractions to your advantage. Have one team member attract attention while others flank the target.
Stay Informed: Keep an eye on the other teams’ activities. If you notice them tracking another team, that might be a prime opportunity to strike!
Goggle Strategy: Use your goggle-wearing time to scout the area for your opponents. Remember, you can’t be targeted while you’re not active, so this is a great time to plan your next move.
Stories:
Surprise Attack: During a similar game, one of my friends disguised himself with a poncho and sat still near the school’s entrance. When another team walked past, he jumped out and got them completely off guard! It turned into a hilarious moment and a legendary tale among our friends.
The Decoy: In another game, a teammate pretended to be unarmed and sat by the school fountain. When the opposing team approached thinking it was an easy target, the rest of us ambushed them from both sides. It turned out to be a great strategy!
Remember, the most important part is to have fun and create lasting memories with your friends. Good luck, and may the best team win!
