If you need some help with the Weekly Challenge this week (Pillar of Autumn, Legendary, All Skulls On), you’ve got a couple of choices already. Tyrant’s Mythic Guide should always be a first stop – but if that doesn’t do it for you, swing by High Spee…

BAKSMAK and Dater’s SWAT dualtage
RVideo sent us a link to BAKSMAK and Dater’s SWAT dualtage – five and a half minutes of headshot madness. It’s not surprising that the targeting control is seriously precise – after all, getting Killtastrophes is unusual, even in SWAT – but what struck…
