Space Cleanup 101

The reason why 2:55 hurt so bad is you were 0m/s waiting for him to warp in before orbiting. When he shot you you were only going about 20% of your max speed meaning his tracking easily kept up with you, orbiting the beacon helps with this as you want to be max speed and max transversal before he even locks you in this situation. Good fights though, good to see another Slicer lover!
(maybe you already know this was a mistake, also posting for others if they want to learn pvp :) )

You are absolutely right. Sometimes I orbit, but I don't always know what ship is coming in, so I usually adjust later. And this Thrasher pilot was very fast on the trigger finger: most are a little buit slower.

@@merdaneth if I remember correctly you cannot get into FW sites other than gating, so you should be fine to spam dscan whilst orbiting - you'll still get at least ~5 seconds no matter what ship it is and a slicer should be able to warp in that time. Moving is the only way to live as a frigate, and with that in mind: fly dangerously ;)
