This is great advice :) but if i may, an extra tip is, I believe watching ninja montages really helps. That really helped me and you pick up on tricks, different strategies, and scenarios to do them in. There are some great reach montages. the ideas are the same and perform the same in halo 5.
Dallas, You Glorious Spartan Ninja Bastard! I never even considered playing primarily off the radar in a situation like that. I am adopting this strategy Immediately! Thanks Boys.
The best way to shame a ninja is to simply thrust backwards when they go for the ninja, then assassinate them when they hit the ground. Bonus points for a dope animation.
Wow this was really helpful! haven't tried it out yet, but I'm sure it will work just fine. I wanna learn to ninja like we could in Halo Reach where you're standing on an incline and you just jump straight up in the air and back and land an assassination on them.
You guys had your reticle on the spartans every ninja you got, so if you had held it, you would have gotten the assassination without ground pound in the way. Me and a few of my friends figured it out. You MUST have your reticle on them when you try to assassinate after the ninja and you'll trigger the animation. It's not good mid gunfight because you could get cleaned up, but if you're alone, it makes it so much more badass.
I do this all the time. I'm actually pretty good at it. The thing I use to avoid being ninjad is thrust 90 degrees to the left or right or thrust backwards. Thrusting backwards is a little sketchy, though, because they will sometimes land directly on top of you lol
I remeber a couple months into halo reach and a few friends and me thought, hey what if you chased me and I jumped over your head and meleed you. By the time halo 4 was here, everyone was doing it. Awesome.
+Proximitty ohh wow that all makes since now. cx Was it considered a ninja back then because I don't remember it being called that. Then again I was 12 so I don't remember much from it. lol
Yea people still called it a Ninja haha but if you didn't know and still thought of it on your own that's pretty cool! Thanks so much for the support :)
lol you should make a tip video on how to crouch strafe like the crab kid lol. awesome video I'll put the tips to good use and I think you deserve 0.25 points for the overshield almost-ninja
Can you also do the ninja not by just jumping and thrusting back over their head but from the side as well on the ground? Like someone's coming after you and you side step a little then thrust back and they walk past you. Oh and also "get crab'ed"
+Proximitty - Maybe I missed it in the video, but what are the actual mechanics of the ninja? You talked about WHEN to ninja (by watching the radar), but not HOW to ninja. Do you just jump while pressing back, press thrust, and then press melee? Super cool idea, BTW. Big props for putting out solid content.
I know this is an old vid but the way I avoid getting ninjad is just boosting backwards when I see them jump and then they'll get stuck on my head in front of me and I can just melee them
+Proximitty yeah same for me. a true ninja knows when to ninja an weather to thrust or not lol its harder to ninja wen your just going around trying to do it. thanks for response
+Proximitty oh and I know your a hot shot youtuber lol but my friend made a Montage of some of my clips if you wuna cheak it out that would be cool. channel is ptpnoblesnipe video is nates Montage did some crazy double ninjas
U should wait till they get close to the inner circle also if you see them jump you wanna look up and back up if they are behind a wall u wanna do the same but keep an eye on the radar when your in the inner circle you only can hit a ninja if a person isn’t looking up or moving forward in the inner circle also if your out of thrust try crouch jumping while moving back
so thisnhappened to me... a guy jumped giving me his back, as soon as i melee him he trhrusters to me and for some reason he goes through me and assassinates me, why, how?
I notice you do this a lot, you seem to like , rotate your gun really fast during game play and I was wondering if that is some sort of skill or helpful move for gameplay ?
to prevent getting "ninja" is easy. or for me it is, its so obvious when a player is going for it. you always gatta keep an eye on your radar and have your back against a wall and always be aware of their movements. when you equip a overshield ALWAYS be aware, its what most players will try to do on you. moral of my comment, dont rush for kills, kids. take it slow 👌
I have a question Proximitty, is it normal that active halo player have the problem that they have often bad times like they missed a lot of shots in matches like one week long for example? Thats my problem , in the last months i have very often bad times between my good times were im very good in halo, and that sucks. I wish i have this bad times not so often
+Xenoxen34 I'm actually in the middle of a slump right now. It sucks, cause I know I'm better, but I constantly make stupid mistakes. hope you get better soon.

Any chance of getting a tutorial about the crab strafe, I need to up my game
I would say this is your best video so far. GREAT stuff
Btw props to that crouching guy haha. That would be a good challenge. You have to stay in crouch the whole game.
that crouching kid had my fuckin dying LOL
That Dallas guy is a total square
you won
thanks Max
I3igTexas :)
I3igTexas Yeah fuck whoever that is.
Its hip to be square. 😃
Dude that kid crouch strafing like a pro.😂 I think that should've been 3-3 btw. 😊
the king of the crabs needs his own channel
Oh my god that kids crouch strafe had me dying. rip my sides
*Learn to become like a crouching tiger*
That guy was awesome..
His strafe is so MLG xD
kid was the GOAT
+Proximitty I was dying when I saw that. I can't believe it.
+Proximitty whats goat stand for!
+AVIAN MACK Greatest of all Time
This is great advice :) but if i may, an extra tip is, I believe watching ninja montages really helps. That really helped me and you pick up on tricks, different strategies, and scenarios to do them in. There are some great reach montages. the ideas are the same and perform the same in halo 5.
Absolute monster strafe. an aimbot would have trouble hitting that
+Cathonic bro, it wouldn't even land a bullet.
That crouching guy made me laugh so freaking hard! LEGEND!!!!! I need to find him... and learn his ways....senpai
Dallas, You Glorious Spartan Ninja Bastard!
I never even considered playing primarily off the radar in a situation like that.
I am adopting this strategy Immediately!
Thanks Boys.
The best way to shame a ninja is to simply thrust backwards when they go for the ninja, then assassinate them when they hit the ground. Bonus points for a dope animation.
That dude that was crouching was hilarious
Wow this was really helpful! haven't tried it out yet, but I'm sure it will work just fine. I wanna learn to ninja like we could in Halo Reach where you're standing on an incline and you just jump straight up in the air and back and land an assassination on them.
You guys owe me a new pair of pants; I laughed till I peed myself. I'm getting the Spartan-diaper req next time!
Great video! I want more tips with BigTexas!
texas is the man
the ninja is strong with this one ;)
Great video mate and thanks for the tip :)
That crouch was legendary
Man that crab guy haha what a legend 😂
You guys had your reticle on the spartans every ninja you got, so if you had held it, you would have gotten the assassination without ground pound in the way. Me and a few of my friends figured it out. You MUST have your reticle on them when you try to assassinate after the ninja and you'll trigger the animation.

Tierstobro TV Not efficient. Turn assassinations off.
Very fun vid! Very enjoyable! THE CRAB GUY!!! XD XD
I do this all the time. I'm actually pretty good at it. The thing I use to avoid being ninjad is thrust 90 degrees to the left or right or thrust backwards. Thrusting backwards is a little sketchy, though, because they will sometimes land directly on top of you lol
Great video proximitty love it
Very awesome vid guys keep it up.
Thank you so much! I did it the first game after watching this!
8:53 😂😂😂 noscopes the guy says noo how dat not me ninja
I remeber a couple months into halo reach and a few friends and me thought, hey what if you chased me and I jumped over your head and meleed you. By the time halo 4 was here, everyone was doing it. Awesome.
+Diamond Lyric the 'Ninja' has been done since H2 though :P
+Proximitty ohh wow that all makes since now. cx Was it considered a ninja back then because I don't remember it being called that. Then again I was 12 so I don't remember much from it. lol
+Proximitty the PvP stand point of it. And btw I just found you in recommendations and your vids are awesome so I subbed!
Yea people still called it a Ninja haha but if you didn't know and still thought of it on your own that's pretty cool! Thanks so much for the support :)
+Proximitty yeah my dreams are ruined now! lol jk Yeah I enjoy your videos though keep them up!
Crouching tiger must've watched fraggin like a pro by Tsquared
I was one hell of a Ninja God in Halo 4! So much fun and assassinations!
ha ha that's that spartan 4 logic Gen 2 have been doing this for ever
Hahahah sorry bro Dallas won. imo a ninja is a ninja, it works or it doesn't, no half. Lol nice job though!!!!!!!!
+A Bloody Bloke I cri
+Proximitty sorry bro! keep the videos coming!
great video man!
I like the way you ninja boy-O
+Chaotix Gaming and by you I mean Double Spicey aka BigTexas
lol you should make a tip video on how to crouch strafe like the crab kid lol. awesome video I'll put the tips to good use and I think you deserve 0.25 points for the overshield almost-ninja
GG. Great video and I am so trying this!
Hey Proximity, I love the videos. What's the song towards the end during the ninja competition? The songs you use in your vids are 9/9
I gotta adopt the strats
The last thing we need is more ninja kids...
+Apex what have I done..
Can you also do the ninja not by just jumping and thrusting back over their head but from the side as well on the ground? Like someone's coming after you and you side step a little then thrust back and they walk past you.
Oh and also "get crab'ed"
There are new ninjas tactics. If you are against ninjas, just thruster by the side of them instead of above them or they will air assassinate you
I know, cause I'm a ninja and play with iSpiteful
+Proximitty - Maybe I missed it in the video, but what are the actual mechanics of the ninja? You talked about WHEN to ninja (by watching the radar), but not HOW to ninja. Do you just jump while pressing back, press thrust, and then press melee?
Super cool idea, BTW. Big props for putting out solid content.
+VintageGold yes, button combo is exactly how you said! and thanks m8 :)
I know this is an old vid but the way I avoid getting ninjad is just boosting backwards when I see them jump and then they'll get stuck on my head in front of me and I can just melee them
to prevent getting ninja killed just jump up while he's doing it, get air assassination on the noob, you just have to pay attention when he jumps
+RedBlue Legend the scenario we were providing is when you are sprinting, which is rather different I believe.
ok sorry i wasn't paying attention Proximitty
all good my dude :)
Ayeee you ninja'd me 😂😂
Nice video
Bid Texas I'm a ninja and it really works! Thx for telling us about it
haha nice vid both you guys. do you guys do ninjas without thrusting or do you feel it's just easier to ninja with thrust?
+Nathan Chrisman we do without thrust if necessary but it's 10x easier with thrust
+Proximitty yeah same for me. a true ninja knows when to ninja an weather to thrust or not lol its harder to ninja wen your just going around trying to do it. thanks for response
+Proximitty oh and I know your a hot shot youtuber lol but my friend made a Montage of some of my clips if you wuna cheak it out that would be cool. channel is ptpnoblesnipe video is nates Montage did some crazy double ninjas
Dallas is senpai or is it crab strafe guy? hmm...
U should wait till they get close to the inner circle also if you see them jump you wanna look up and back up if they are behind a wall u wanna do the same but keep an eye on the radar when your in the inner circle you only can hit a ninja if a person isn’t looking up or moving forward in the inner circle also if your out of thrust try crouch jumping while moving back
He was crab walking
you were killed by mr crabs
Upon second review, if you had broke the over shield it would have been worth the half point but no luck. Good tips still.
so thisnhappened to me... a guy jumped giving me his back, as soon as i melee him he trhrusters to me and for some reason he goes through me and assassinates me, why, how?
You guys are great😂
I just ninja'd tf outta someone with a gravity hammer so bad they messaged me saying they were reporting me for modding lmao 😂
A way to counter might be to thrust backwards if you have a fast enough reaction?
Just predict, jump and air-assassinate them right back when they try to ninja.
Yas I can ninja thanks to you guys and do you play with your viewers on their map they make and stay amazing
First, nice video
ive always wanted to do this but have never gotten the opportunity :(
omg that legend xD
that crouch legend though lol
+iCandyOp iReApZzZ dude is a savage
Basically a trickstab but in halo
These guys never played assassinations in Reach.
TheLordcarrot
Isn't it beautiful
Jägerschnitzel Dein Ernst ? Du brauner Sack
I notice you do this a lot, you seem to like , rotate your gun really fast during game play and I was wondering if that is some sort of skill or helpful move for gameplay ?
Lol, frontal ninja masterrace
Instead of sliding, you can jump up and a airsassination
Sadly halo5 screwed up assassinations. I'm used to the jump over the head thing
Gus England you could still do that. ive done it before
Proximitty, which playlist do you think is easiest to hit onyx? My friend challenged me and I want to get there fast.
+NXTman1000 FFA
+Proximitty That is what I have been told. Why is everyone saying that? (What makes it easy)
Top 3 is technically a win and there are a lot of people that play it. More spaces for Onyx ranks
+Proximitty Thanks! Top half hopefully won't be too hard...
+Proximitty I just did the placement matches, and got diamond 1. Should I grind from here to get into onyx or use my alt account?
new challenge play a whole game crouching. you can call it the crab challenge
to prevent getting "ninja" is easy. or for me it is, its so obvious when a player is going for it. you always gatta keep an eye on your radar and have your back against a wall and always be aware of their movements. when you equip a overshield ALWAYS be aware, its what most players will try to do on you. moral of my comment, dont rush for kills, kids. take it slow 👌
Every time I try to ninja they do an assassination on me. lol
lol same
that should be another half for prox...it should be 3 to 3 imo
+Alpha Forger :)
I think Dallas won that one. Also, I think his slide, spin jump thing on plaza deserves .5 if not 1 whole point. Just my opinion tho.
I could use this a lot because I am in a h5 clan and sometimes I need to ninja them to Kia them
I have a question Proximitty, is it normal that active halo player have the problem that they have often bad times like they missed a lot of shots in matches like one week long for example? Thats my problem , in the last months i have very often bad times between my good times were im very good in halo, and that sucks. I wish i have this bad times not so often
+Xenoxen34 idk man, hard to say! I don't have that problem personally
+Proximitty haha ok then im the only one haha
+Proximitty maybe i must make a break from halo 5
+Xenoxen34 I'm actually in the middle of a slump right now. It sucks, cause I know I'm better, but I constantly make stupid mistakes. hope you get better soon.
+The Electric Monkey thank you very much you too its a hard time in halo at the moment
You can use the thrust slide to avoid the ninja can you not?
Can't tell you how many times I've assassinated ninjas before lol it's so predictable but am be affective
Air*
to dodge a ninja why dont you just boost backward?
snap shot
Good job only i get the assassination when I do it :/
Do one where you only get kills by Spartan charging
You have two consoles and TVs next to each other?
+Jonathan Moua my friend woxdy's set up is in the same room yes, he wasn't there when we made this video though!
Proximitty But then somehow you were sitting right next to each other on the same game,,, i figure you had two tvs right right beside and two Xbones
Yes, it was across the room. I was looking at a distance :P check out my 3K day in the life for a better explanation!
ninjaer sounds way to close to something else and you both played it off well
Can we just have a game with no ninjas
Now try in Breakout :)
How to ninja when they are backing up
do an legacy/southpaw/inverted challenge
the better way to counter is just turn when they jump, no back smack no ninja.
+spyd3f3321 well that's hard to do when sprinting, which is the situation we were presenting
True. i was going off the opponents in the video when you got half points, it seemed they had turned a quarter turn.
yea turning is definitely the way to go if you have time to do it!
Thank you
6:35 for king crab
Blackmill tho :)
I counter the ninja by boosting backwards for me it always works
no he won. it was 3 to 2.
song name please?
I can do ninjas in all halo games except halo 5....that stupid ground pound always fucks me over
i sall your live streams on twich and the halo channel can you ivt me to your game?
Nah I thinks Dallas won that :P
I crouch jump for ninjaing in halo reach and halo 4
Lol dallas won fair and square
