luckiest gaming victory

[Jovlo]

but then later when i hit someone up during sudden death, bombs dropped, bounced off a wall, went off the side and died while he was flying Team Rocket style. he won.

That's about the worst way to lose a sudden death game. Being knocked out while the other guy is going Team Rocket. Had that once when I was playing Zelda against Snake. He used his guided rocket on me but I hit him first with Din's fire. While he was flying away, the grenade about which I had forgotten already hit me and knocked me out by the side. So he won...

This was a while back on Halo 3 oddball FFA. One guy was totally sucking, three guys all had 49 points, and I had like 45. All three guys with 49 points took it in turns to pick up the ball but literally a millisecond after each one picked it up they got killed so they couldn't get their last point. Then I ran up grabbed the ball and won.
Another lucky victory, but for my brother not me, was on the original Super Smash Bros. on the N64. I was Mario and he was Pikachu, and we each had one life left and very high percentage. He was hanging on the edge of the Cornaria stage and i was waiting at the top with a hammer right next to me. As soon as he got up I would pick it up and smash him to bits. However just as I say, "I'm not moving until you come up here," a bomb runs up behind me blows me up and launches me off the stage. My brother laughed at me for 10 minutes straight. And the worst part is that would have been the first time I had ever beaten him.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance: My whole team got KO'd on the final boss but the moogle and he managed to dodge 5 attacks in a row to beat the boss.

Left 4 Dead: Whole team was dead on the 2nd to last area and I was running along the part of the exposed building after the elevator, 3 players were hunters 1 was a boomer, I managed to dodge all 3 of them and 2 flew off the building when trying to pounce me, shotgunned the 3rd, and managed to melee the boomer off the building too and dashed to the saferoom right as they respawned.

COD4 I was defusing the case and my team made a circle around me for protection, a nade landed on the case and killed my entire team but somehow juggernaut saved me and I defused it.

Couple years ago I set up a "Hide and Go Seek" game on Halo 2 LAN. (Effectively Oddball FFA, carrier is stealthed, and have to rack up 10 minutes of holding time.) Can't remember the name of the level (been a while) but it was the Map Pack level with the M.A.S.H. looking shed on the street, and that little alcove in the top part of the map. Obviously that alcove was my favorite hiding spot as my friends searched for me. Well, one friend quickly recognized my hiding spots, and decided to lay in wait. He switched to the SMG and sprayed the alcove, then turned to wait. As he turned, I darted in behind him and crouched down. When my timer was at the 9:30 mark, a spectator was looking at all of the different screens in the room, saw mine, and tapped my shoulder while saying, "Oh man!" The friend laying in wait immediately knew where I was, as I run screaming past him trying desperately to avoid the hoard for another 30 seconds.

This one isn't mine. A friend was playing Gears 1 on Insane. He was just about to be killed by Raam, was out of sniper rounds, but managed to kill him with a lancer blind fire to the stomach. We literally stopped breathing when Raam fell (for a few seconds)

 

[Lord Beautiful]

I think my luckiest game moment was when I defeated Jinpachi in Tekken 5 on Ultra Hard without getting hit. I hate that prick.

 

[PirateKing]

This happened an anomolously large amount of times to my friends and I while playing SSBM. We would charge each other and do an attack, hit a barrel or something, the barrel would explode and KO one of us. The other one would win the match.

Also, I still don't understand how I did this, but I once defeated all of Star Wolf Team on Venom without getting hit once in Starfox 64.

I suppose the tale of Sir Bartholomew Stilton could fit here, though it's more a series of individual victories leading to a pointless failure than an overall victory.

Spoiler: The Heroic Efforts of Sir Bartholomew Stilton

Left 4 Dead, Dead Air Pistol-only Expert run. We weren't doing to well on the construction site level, and about the time we reached the barricade we were half-dead with no medkits. So I say "Screw it." I shoot the gass cans near the barricade, and stand at the front of the group while the hoard rushes in. And instead of just shooting, I dive head-first into the hoard, meleeing and screaming into the mic:

"I AM SIR BARTHOLOMEW STILTON! I AM SIR BARTHOLOMEW STILTON! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM!?"

And with that, I defeated the hoard singlehandedly with minimal damage. Singlehandedly because everyone else was too awestruck/busy laughing their asses off to help.

So we keep going as planned, until a tank arrives. the general sentiment around the party was "Great, we're screwed."

I walk up to the front of the group, and ask the tank, "Do you know who I am?"

The tank charges. I manage to dodge to the side and start to melee it, screaming:

"I AM SIR BARTHOLOMEW STILTON! I AM SIR BARTHOLOMEW STILTON! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM!?"

"I! AM! SIR! BARTHOLOMEW! STILTOOOON!"

And with the help of two of my friends (one died), we killed the tank. We killed it with two pistols and a pair of fists.

And so we keep going, and we're almost to the safe house. All of the sudden, we hear crying. I spot the witch some ways away.

"Witch!" Everyone murmurs. "Lights off!"

I turned my light off.

Then I turned it back on.

"Do you know who I am?"

The witch stands and starts to growl at me.

"I AM SIR BARTHOLOME-OH SHIT!"

And that marked the death of Sir Bartholomew Stilton.

On another note, I once played a challenge in Melee involving a fight against Giga Bowser. As soon as the match begins, he throws himself off of the platform for no reason. Because of this, the event has a record of three seconds.

I fucking hated him soo much that giant lazer shot from his stomach mouth thing was just bullshit.
Also me, a friend and a random guy get left in a big team slayer match on halo 3 against 8, we were getting raped untill a few triple kills later we drew 98-98 XD annoying thing is the absolute second the timer hit 00:00 I put the last burst into a guys head.

Probably nothing special, possibly not well know as others.
But Final Fantasty VI -- Shadow the Ninja-For-Hire and my two other guys, A Samurai and Monk were fighting the Phantom Train when it attacked my Ninja, shadow. his Dog Intercepter jumped out, blocked the hit and coutered it for 9999 damage, kill it in the first like. 7 moves IF that.

I was plaing resident evil:4 I was at the part where you are defending a house on the top of a hill. I rushed upstairs after I had blocked the door and windows. From there i killed a lot of the villigers. There was one left and he ran upstairs right at me as i was reloading my shotgun, but decided i wasnt a threat and jumped out the window.

Sitting playing Halo 3 with a few friends after drinking and we played rockets in 4 player on Valhalla, Everyone mounted on vehicles except me, one in a warthog and two banshees where in the air having dogfights. Threw a grenade and fired two rockets in the direction of the banshees, I only saw triple kill come up on my screen. (This might have been a dream, we had drunk quite a few)

 

[anarchist225]

i was playing halo PC, and threw a frag at a grunt. it somehow got stuck on the grunt's shoulder, and none of the enemies noticed, at least until it exploded

 

[Ace of Spades]

I took out the entire opposing team in COD4 multiplayer with one pack of C4. God that was fun. Seeing the chain reaction of cars exploding was the high point of my day.

Dude, seriously. Phantom Train+Phoenix Down=1 Move Win. Same thing when you find Shadow unconcious and have to fight the Sr Behemouth. The zombie version ya just hit with a phoenix down. The Samuri is Cyan and the Monk is Sabin by the way.
