I was in Alliance Battles, the Ancestral Lands, and we had just started, my team Luxon. We began to run to the nearest capture point and a rogue assassin shadow stepped right towards the point. He instantly realized he was the only one there, and he activated dash to try and run the other way. I then looked over and my warrior teammate shouted "You're All Alone." We then proceeded to pummel the assassin.

Best skill use I'd ever seen, I was almost on the floor laughing.

I seen someone use Resurrection Signet once in RA. Was quite amazed.

That's luck, not skill.

Are we talking about clever use of skill combos, or just brief flashes of genius here?

When I first saw someone make brilliant use of Shadow Stepping, a while back. The TRUE hallmark of a good assassin IMO.

I say my MS-DB spam was pretty pro.

Yup, it's something I never could master (which is why I don't have an assassin anymore). I've got nothing but respect for someone that can play that class well.

Either or. I made the topic with the mindset of funny combinations or skills that fit a situation perfectly, but I suppose extreme feats of luck or nicely dished out combos work.

I just got this mental image of pro a/e spamming meteor shower and disrupting stab.

Screen or it didn't happen.

@Topic- With all the AoD Assassins in Costume Brawl there were some interesting things with AoD + Dash

Holding off and killing 2 sins, a warrior, and a ranger's pet in AB single-handedly with a so-called noob riposte/glad's build. I liked that battle.

Wouldn't really say that was good skill usage. You had a noob build that only damaged melee, and several melees were dumb enough to keep attacking you until they died.

I kept it all up through the minute or so it took to kill everyone.

solo'd an entire team repeatedly in an AB battle... using a cripshot ranger.

sometimes i wonder if there were actually people playing those characters. they were so stupid/predictable it was hilarious.

who COULDN'T keep up the stances on a stance tank? anyone who couldn't should be checked to see if his brain is still in his head.

I don't know why we're comparing, say, a perfectly timed diversion on a bsurge leading to a push with idiots attacking through glads/riposte in AB.

I'd have to say Flame Djinn's Haste. It's a rather versatile skill thrown on a survivor.

It's more impressive seeing a good play than a good skill use when it comes to PvP. Good skill use is somewhat redundant, unless you're watching two deficient teams battling it out to see who is less retarded.
