Other Murphy's Laws in Tanki

[Flexoo 6,980]

Have you heard about Murphy's law that states that whatever can go wrong, will go wrong? If so, you might actually know that Tanki has many of these as well. See for yourself just a few of the many examples!



1. The Isida on your team will always be at least a second too late to heal you.

2. It does not matter how many times you try to leave a battle to escape a team or map you do not like, you will be put straight back into the very same Matchmaking battle you just left.

3. Do you have an excessive number of one certain supply? Guess what, you will get more of it from containers.

4. You will be the one person who purchases a powerful turret, alteration or drone one day before it gets nerfed.

5. You will also be the person whose crystal count is under 10 000 crystals the day before 50% garage sales.

6. Even though Matchmaking eliminated a good proportion of the mults, there will still be at least four inactive noobs in your team.

7. You might use Dictator to get advantage in the Gold Box hunt, but in your very first battle with it, you will still be beaten to catching the gold by a player with the exact same hull you chose to swap out for Dictator.

8. Whenever there is a dropped enemy flag a few meters from your base in the CTF battle, you and your team will always be a nanosecond late to picking it up before it respawns back in the enemy base.

9. If there is a hidden mine on a ramp, there is a one hundred percent chance that the one and only person who will explode on it will be you.

10. If all the previous points apply to you perfectly, you are very likely the guy who missed one star to reach the final tier this month.

11. If your mom ever calls for you, your pause time will run out just a couple of seconds before you can get back to your game.

12. You will be destroyed right as you finally activated your overdrive.

14. Whichever War faction you are put into will definitely be the losing one.

15. You are the only one around the Gold Box drop zone, but when the Gold Box finally falls, you lag through it.

16. If there was a Newspaper competition promising crystals to anyone who spots what is wrong in this topic, you would be the last person to notice that I skipped point thirteen.

17. You will be destroyed seconds before your fully charged overdrive would have been of the greatest use.

18. Whichever turret you choose for your next battle, it will be the one turret that almost everyone has a protection module against it equipped.

19. All users here know that the game forum goes down exactly at the time when you are actually doing something important or when you need it the most.

20. It does not matter whether you have perfect Internet connection and skills, because your shots in Sandbox XP will somehow always be those that are a nanosecond late when it matters.

21. You will be that one person who is camping in the middle of rainforest when x10 Battle funds and x10 Gold boxes are currently in the game.

22. With your luck, you will respawn in your base exactly the moment someone catches a container with an XT or other legendary reward.

23. If you will ever decide to post something in the Amateur Writing section, it will be at the time when every reporter is away for three months.

24. You die simultaneously as a Gold Box siren goes off, which you notice was close to where you died. Congratulations, now you will spawn as far away as possible.

25. You are the one person who can't buy the Battle Pass but already has all of the good items in the free tiers every Challenge.

 

And so there you have it. Does any point from these sounds like something that would actually happen to you? Let us know in the comments.

I could literally count how many times #21 was true with me...

[Benefactor 6,888]

#4 - when I was a Colonel and 2 steps away from creating an M4 Isida; 1 week later they announce the removal of Isida's vampirism ability.

[Person_Random 4,991]

my Godmode_on the times number 24 has happened to me! but no, I shall not tell you HOW MUCH I SCREAM WHEN THAT HAPPENS REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Sacrifice 2,278]

23 was true for me :D

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

I have heard about Murphy's Law before. I don't remember what its about.

[Sniper1954_the_dark 52]

Murphy's Law is as follows: "Anything that can go wrong will". The addition to that is "And at the worst possible time". This article had me laughing so hard, because I have had so many of those gaffs happen to me. Tanki is like playing golf. You can have one battle where you play like a champion, doing everything right and killing everything in sight, and then turn around the next battle and have every possible thing from running off of cliffs and flipping over due to lag to getting killed and re-spawning in the same area multiple times in the same area only to be killed again. Awesome article. :D

[Omniscient 26]

Haha I can not tell you how true 20 is

 

Whether I'm trying to make a shot at the flag who is shooting at me or predicting when someone will come round a corner, some random kid will always shoot and kill me by a nano second and I still see my shot go through his tank

 

I also noticed if I'm right next to a player and I shoot him first by a nano second, he will for some reason shoot me first and kill me by a nano second

 

:(  :(

point 12 happens to me a lot.

[TheLinguist 3]

all of them...

[ILiveOnTheChatBox123 936]

Love it! Number twelve is the one that happens to me the most. 

I really get hurt from #12. It happens so often, especially with my Viking OD. 

The other way my OD is ruined, is when I see a group of enemy tanks, and I have a full OD. I turn it on, trying to start a massacre, and someone drops a Nuke. Its either on my team-and I can't make any kills. Or its on the other team and I die.

[TARGET-X-ACQUIRED 23]

im mint so number 13 applies to me

[Viking4s 10,791]
