PUBG Player Snipes Parachuting Enemy Through Iron Sights

PUBG pretends to be a meritocracy in which only the strong triumph, but the truth of the game is that success comes as often to the lucky as the skilled. For those of us damned to a death by luck, the most we can hope for is a stylish death.

In a post on the PUBG subreddit, u/toraw4 provided their hapless opponent just such a death.

Parachuting into Yasnaya Polyana on Erangel, toraw4 landed a rooftop all their own. Not only that, but the weapon they tripped over when landing was a Kar98k. With such good fortune on their side, toraw4 performed a quick 360 survey of their surroundings to scope out targets.

Though there were few opponents on the ground, toraw4 spied a pair of players still parachuting into the game.

Toraw4 loaded up their Kar98k — still scopeless — and lined up the weapon's iron sights with the descending player. Toraw4 pulled the trigger, and in a flash their opponent KongKlaus was knocked from the sky, killed instantly by headshot from 226 meters away.

Did it require incredible luck? Certainly. But was it cool as hell? Absolutely.
