Legion is sitting on a station at 0, I'm undocked in a letto pointing it. Legion: "Shit son, I'm being pointed by a letto, better point it back and aggress" We undock a second letto, a nado, an ishtar and I deaggress. The letto points it and the other two attack. Legion: "Shit son, I've successfully baited a response" and lights his covert cyno to bring in about 10 blops, mostly redeemers but some panthers. I undock my oracle and insta out, everyone else pulls out to 50km, they all aggress but the legion forgot to wait until he had a ship tackled. Panther1: "Shit son, I'm deaggressed on an npc station at 0, nobody is shooting me, I'm on 0 with 9 other RR BS" and MJDs out in a random direction, immediately cloaking as the letto runs towards him. Panther2: "I'll distract that letto" and MJDs out in a different direction towards empty space, off the station at 0 where he is deaggressed and nothing is shooting at him. Redeemer1: "All the cool kids are doing it" and MJDs out, landing near the letto and getting longpointed.
At this point the ishtar, oracle and nado pile onto it. He is scrammed and we go to work. The rest of the blops leap into action. 7 other blops: "Shit son, friendlies tackled, light those MJDs" and they literally starburst in all directions. We're somewhat confused by this. As the only person who didn't panic light his MJD and end up in the middle of fucking nowhere (possibly due to no MJD) the legion takes command of the situation. Legion: "Don't worry redeemer bro, I'm rocking the remote rep defensive subsystem and fit triple CCC rig, I'll get you out of this" and warps himself to his redeemer friend who is in structure and scrammed by the letto. Unfortunately for them the legion, although fitting the RR defensive sub and using CCC rigs rather than, you know, trimarks, hasn't actually put RR in his highs. The letto throws his longpoint on the legion, keeps scramming the redeemer and the redeemer goes down. http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=23644142
Legion: "Shit, sorry redeemer bro, forgot to refit RR, this letto seems to be holding me, rest of the blops warp to me" The blops which are in warp range start warping to the legion but unfortunately the 4 slot tank, combined with warping onto ishtar and 2 ABCs, combined with the lack of tank rigs, are collectively unable to resist the incoming dps. The legion goes down. http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=23649510
The majority of the blops fleet is now clustered on the wreck of the legion and redeemer but there were some whose initial MJDs left them within 150km and couldn't warp in. Fortunately they had a solution to this. Redeemer 2: "Can't warp in to save you legion, my MJD is ready, will try and jump it" Redeemer 3: "Are you pointing in our direction?" Redeemer 2: "Shit son, is that how this module works!?!? Fuck!"
A redeemer jumps into open space about 80km from his friends. Fortunately the letto joins him. Damage goes on, he is longpointed. Redeemer 2: "Come save me!" Redeemer 3: "I'll MWD over there and get my remote reps on you" Unfortunately at this point because we know the MJD is on cooldown we just longpoint the redeemer with the ishtar, thus freeing up the letto and his scram again. Redeemer 3: "Shit, I tried to MWD over to you but after getting like 50km from the rest of the blops I'm now scrammed by the letto, sorry bro, no reps this time".
So we keep firing and the second redeemer goes down. http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=23644141
Redeemer 3: "Guys, I'm out in open space here and scrammed, help, help!" Remaining 6 blops: "Okay, lighting MJDs" At this point they all MJD in random directions again. We longpoint another (MJD on cooldown) while keeping damage on the the third. http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=23644140
He had this feedback to give regarding the situation as a whole [22:48:24] NATTA LIA > gj guys i was flying with a bunch of noobs Unfortunately further analysis of the fight was cut short http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=23644139
Damage then goes onto redeemer 4 who is completely isolated and longpointed with MJD on cooldown when we get ambushed. A kessy warps to redeemer 4, who is going into structure at this point, and lights a cyno. In come, and I swear to god this is the literal truth, 10 more fucking NC. blops, one of whom immediately lights his MJD and jumps into the middle of fucking nowhere in a panther. Remote reps go on the 4th redeemer who is saved in low structure as our nado, which was sitting at 20km blapping the shit out of it, is forced to back off by the 17 remaining blops ships while our ishtar is no longer in range of his curators and has to use hammerheads. The panther in the middle of nowhere cloaks and the rest of them take their moment and jump out.
Here is a earlier BR of a blops gang containing most of the blops used, although some (such as NATTA) must have either not gotten on the killmails there or joined later. Either way it should serve to show that it really wasn't just my 4 guys (including a frig) blobbing 3 t2 bs and a legion. http://macabrevotum.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_related&kll_id=23642695
and here is our full BR http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_related&kll_id=23644140

Do you guys ever feel bad about how much damage this must do to peoples self esteem? Like 4 or 5 of you guys tend to wind up kill 10 man + gangs.

What surprises me about this stuff is that these 10+ sized gangs don't recognize they're getting owned and get out before it goes all the way bad.

When you jump into a situation outmanning and outgunning the other guy 2:1 or more, your self esteem is already low.
Everything after that (i.e. the aftermath) is all Dunning-Kruger.

A quick question. Did anyone try to use Tristans in fleet engaments as support with web/scram/ecm drones?

As downtime hit I had a cloaky Ishtar 60km from an Apoc Navy Issue who had just warped in to kill the last rat for his mission. What this means is the next time he logs in he'll be ~60km from my long point + scram Ishtar.
Problems I face: EC drones and neuts. I wonder how this will go.

It's through T-8U if you're not familiar with the area.

Both of us logged in at the same moment. He arrived 70km from me. I was burning to him, and as my links finally loaded on grid to turn on and extend my point range to be long enough he entered warp.

People don't get upset about being owned. They just think that they need a bigger blob next time.
