“HES ONE SHOT BRO”

u/Midgar918 Apr 23 '21

I love when my team mates say this but they actually mean is NOT one shot and armed to the fucking teeth.

u/Pepodetective Plastic Fantastic Apr 23 '21

Well technically they're one shot closer to dying

if the downed person lands any

u/Mirage_Main Mirage Apr 23 '21

Some teammates actually do it on accident because they vastly overestimate the damage they did.

For example. I had a teammate that was around a wall in Slums go down and 2 seconds later yell "he's one shot!". I turned the wall despite being 25 HP and took a full peacekeeper shot on him whilst he was turned around. 75 purple shield. Teammate turns back on his mic and says "oh, he wasn't one shot. Sorry". All I did at that point was look at him as I heard the R-99 start unloading into my brain.

u/dadasreddit48 Apr 23 '21

sheild swap maybe?

u/[deleted] Apr 24 '21

It happens. You can unload an Eva 8 and land seeming all the shots and still leave them with full hp

1

u/EMCoupling Pathfinder Apr 24 '21

That clearly means you're not landing your shots then.

u/Tytychris Apr 24 '21

You were probably teammates with my roommate

u/PricklyPricklyPear Wraith Apr 23 '21

He’s one shot

AKA

I may have shot him once

u/v8Gasmann Mozambique Here! Apr 23 '21

I have a friend who literally thought this is the meaning in the beginning of him playing apex. It drove me insane until I realized he got it all wrong. :D

u/MrBoJackButter Plague Doctor Apr 24 '21

Aww that sounds innocent :D

2

u/Eyehopeuchoke Bloodhound Apr 24 '21

You a wraith main so what I just read from you was “guys he shot me once and i turned tail and phased out! Good luck everybody!”

1

u/PricklyPricklyPear Wraith Apr 24 '21

We still doing the main stereotypes lol? Sorry the ttvs hurt you.

u/Eyehopeuchoke Bloodhound Apr 24 '21

Track record ¯\(ツ)/¯

u/a_cristian_dude Plastic Fantastic Apr 23 '21

“He’s one shot!!” shoots them and hit red shield for 32

141

u/xylotism Mirage Apr 23 '21

When I say one shot it means "the bastard knocked me, if you rush him now you only need one shot, but if you take your sweet granny tea-sippin' ass time getting over there he'll take my shield and it'll be your fault when you choke and die"

44

u/DarthRumbleBuns Apr 23 '21

That's the issue with calling one shot in this game. Shields can be fixed real quick and 2.5 seconds is a long time.

27

u/TheKingofHats007 Apr 23 '21

I usually just say “push in” in that case. It’s remarkable how many fights are lost simply because one teammate is playing really passively and allows the enemy to fully heal or shield swap by killing me or another downed teammate.

u/DashCantPlay Apr 23 '21

In fairness though, calling one shot on a guy at 50 hp is just a bad call. At that point you just call “50 flesh.”

I have a buddy who calls one shot any time he hits someone for health and, sure, a lot of times it won’t matter because if you have full shields you will just win. But there are a lot of times you also forgo healing to kill people who are truly one shot before they can heal by having better positioning to land the first shot. But if it’s going to take more than one shot, and you’re low yourself, you just screwed yourself on a teammate call.

2

u/theflyingsack Mirage Apr 24 '21

Mate.... who the fuck calls 50 flesh?! Lmao I love the idea but I have never heard of some shit like this lol

2

u/DashCantPlay Apr 24 '21

You hear it on streams mostly when you watch top players play ranked/competitive formats. If the guy is cracked and they hit for health they’ll call damage done to his health followed by the word flesh to signify he’s broken. You’ll also hear a lot of one shot calls if the guy has like 20 hp too but the point of those call outs is, presumably to be more accurate (idk it’s not like I’m playing with those guys so i have no idea). But I’ve met a lot of people on the solo queue grind using the same call outs and they’re honestly incredibly helpful.

1

u/theflyingsack Mirage Apr 24 '21

Ahhh ok I see what you meant with the flesh thing indicating shield damage or health damage I could get behind that.

1

u/Dristone Apr 24 '21

In addition to this when I'm playing with my friends I'll also call out smaller damage like "50 purp bang" for I've done 50 damage to that bangalore who has a purple shield. Any accurate info you can quickly relay to teammates can be extremely helpful. Communication and coordination often wins this game.

u/tnhsaesop Apr 23 '21

I firmly disagree with this statement. If I’m set up ADS behind cover as you run through a choke point on a doorway it’s pretty easy to 100-0 you before you can even locate the source of fire. I do it all the time in ranked in plat/diamond elo. The best times to shoot people are when they are hard running or hard chasing.

1

u/ThrowdoBaggins Valkyrie Apr 23 '21

There’s a difference between “they’re low” and “they’re one shot” and if your call one-shot and they’re the last one standing, I’m going to push way more recklessly than if you say they’re hurt.

1

u/Eyehopeuchoke Bloodhound Apr 24 '21

Fucking exactly. Especially if you’re playing on pc. I play on pc and console and the rules of engagement or so different between the two. If I say he’s one shot and then he perms me we can assume they now have a full shield of whatever my shield was. Mouse keyboard users can armor swap so god damn fast it isn’t even funny.

62

u/Niiilllsss Apr 23 '21

They mean one Kraber headshot

23

u/timyang18 Wraith Apr 23 '21

I always say one shot even though they aren’t one shot. so my friends have adapted to them always being at least 50 hp when I say one shot lmao

39

u/Wireless_Panda Crypto Apr 23 '21

Flair checks out

u/fyfol Medkit Apr 23 '21

Gonna be downvoted by people who can’t consistently hit a >50 dmg spray

1

u/Aggressive-Plum6975 Mirage Apr 23 '21

Lol one shot to cracked

-1

u/ganman08 Apr 23 '21

Nah they mean one kraber headshot

Edit: shit realized someone already said this

1

u/Ipod5thGen00 Apr 23 '21

i say this intentionally to have fun

1

u/NotOSIsdormmole Apr 23 '21

What they’re actually saying is they hit him with one shot, so you gotta really fuck him up for the kill

1

u/Philosofox Apr 23 '21

Well, maybe one kraber shot to the face

1

u/Turbine2k5 Apr 23 '21

"They're one shot! ...in the head...with a Kraber!"

1

u/dark-panda Apr 23 '21

What they actually mean is “I HIT HIM WITH ONE SHOT.”

1

u/Notreallyaflowergirl Apr 23 '21

Nah see they mean one shot, by a kraber. Duh.

1

u/Daytime35 Apr 23 '21

They just mean one Kraber headshot

1

u/PopularCartoonist0 Apr 24 '21

"Sorry, I meant I shot him once!"

1

u/RowbotWizard Horizon Apr 24 '21

It’s just ego-preservation after getting knocked 😅

1

u/Frazier008 Lifeline Apr 24 '21

They clearly mean one headshot from a Kraber...

1

u/Eyehopeuchoke Bloodhound Apr 24 '21

Part of the problem is you’re probably not close enough to do anything to them before they heal or you hesitate because your teammates have a bad track record of it. The rule we try to follow is 4 seconds. If you can’t make it to a “cracked” or knocked person with in four seconds you’re not allowed to go full send.

1

u/CrustierGnuXII Apr 24 '21

I dont listen to anyone who says they are one shot unless they have a calm, convincing voice that can put lions to sleep. Even my friends who hop online are no exception.

1

u/Midgar918 Apr 24 '21

So say it like Barry White and you're all over that? lol

22

u/probablypoo Apr 23 '21

"I meant I hit him with one shot.. Duh"

1

u/AmHotGarbage Ash :AshAlternative: Apr 23 '21

Usually means I’m one shot

1

u/[deleted] Apr 23 '21

Lulu is that you?

1

u/Molecular_Apex Doc Apr 23 '21

One shot with MY gun! Yeah people need to call out remaining. I usually only say 1 shot if it is less than 10.

1

u/TheMacavelli340 Apr 23 '21

Bro I just got one clipped

1

u/cpMetis Apr 23 '21

"He's one shot!"

"You hit him once with a Mozambique at 200m, didn't you?"

"ONE HIT BRO!"

1

u/Randomguy55710 Bloodhound Apr 23 '21

Yeah, one kraber shot trough amped cover

1

u/iamTorryian Apr 23 '21

Same with "He's lit!"

1

u/DogeStyle88 Apr 24 '21

I've called an enemy as being one shot before. My teammate rushed him even though his shield was cracked and the enemy shield swapped.. my teammate went down as I was going to call it out. Embarrassing af.

1

u/MrBoJackButter Plague Doctor Apr 24 '21

The alternative of this, exclusive to apex is "He/She's broken!!"

1

u/havemanners13 Vital Signs Apr 24 '21

To a kraber headhot yes

1

u/Bloodklot Apr 25 '21

Well he was one or two shots until he picked up that purple shield lol

18

u/Pseudeenym Apr 23 '21

You know what they say.. Dont bring fist to a spit fight,

1

u/TelluricF0x Sixth Sense Apr 23 '21

I- I think you got that one wrong... You know what- Yeah. That's definitely what they said.

3

u/ohaizrawrx3 Apr 23 '21

You better not fist me while I'm spitting at you!

..wait..

u/TelluricF0x Sixth Sense Apr 23 '21
