History Awesome / SurvivalOfTheFittest

-->[[WorldOfCardboardSpeech "And who better to null my own pain than the only person I truly hate on this island? You disgust me that much."]]

* It's still early in the game yet, but the entirety of Ethan Kent's [[spoiler:SelfSacrificeScheme]] in [[http://s10.zetaboards.com/SOTF_V2/topic/7304776/ The House of the Rising Sun]] definitely sets a solid precedent.

* Sean O'Cann's very DeadpanSnarker -esque sarcastic comments when cornered inside a room between two of the island's resident murderers: Gabriel Theobaldt and Dominica Sharpiro, are his CrowningMomentOfAwesome.

** In addition to this, the scene also manages to encompass a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming ''and'' TearJerker.

--> ''Stapled to a tree was Cody Jenson, [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice a sword through his chest]], and '''[[PayEvilUntoEvil 'RAPIST' carved]] [[MoodWhiplash into his]] [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment chest]]'''''

* Fred Hughes taking on Cody Jenson to keep the rest of his group safe, despite knowing he's outmatched.

* Hansel's fight with the man who had inadvertently set him on his path to becoming the most prolific killer in V5, Theodore Fletcher. What ensues is a brutal back and forth before Hansel takes out Theo's eyes and smashes his head to pieces with a crowbar.

*** His last fight before entering endgame is with Katarina Konipaski, the other highest killer and fresh off her fight with Matt Vartoogian.

* Hansel's fight with the man who had inadvertently set him on his path to becoming the most prolific killer in V5, Theodore Fletcher. What ensues is a brutal back and forth before Hansel takes out Theo's eyes before smashing his head to pieces.

** Not to be outdone, his parner [[spoiler:Feo Smith]] gets the rest of the escape group together and manages to send a message out to STAR, and when the area is turned into a dangerzone by the terrorists stays behind to destroy evidence of their work while urging the group to run. [[soiler:Because of this [[HeroicSacrifice she doesn't make it out.]]]]

* [[ThrillSeeker Kaitlyn Greene]] decides to play a deadly game within a DeadlyGame when her friend Alba Reyes stumbles into the cove to find her. [[spoiler: Kaitlyn coerces Alba into trading weapons with her before forcing Alba into a standoff/game of chicken with her while high tide threatens to flood the cove that they are in. What follows is an incredibly tense scene as Alba tries to talk sense into Kaitlyn and Kaitlyn pushes on, the rush of danger and a misguided attempt at coaching Alba into being stronger keeping her going, eventually ending in Alba finding the fortitude to "win" Kaitlyn's game like she wanted her to.]]

* In ''The Program'' v2, Maxim Senders comes across Chris Brooks on the first day. Having robbed someone before, Maxim tries to do a "repeat performance". Only, though, Chris has this to say about it:
--> "Fuck you." Chris said holding up [[FlippingTheBird his bloody middle finger]] to Maxim's face. He wasn't going to let someone try and intimidate him. Not when he was in a life and death game.
* In ''Virtua'' V1, "Big Mike" Gibraltar is facing Brian Larke. Mike has a cake, Brian has a shotgun. What does Mike do? Run at Brian and smash the cake in his face. He doesn't get very far before getting killed, but it's still one of the most audacious ways to attack someone.
--> ''When I get to Heaven, I am so telling Anton that I threw a cake at Brian.''

** His later fight with his rival from school, Garret Wilde. Garret had become a player hunter at this point, having taken the life of Jaquilyn Locke earlier. [[Spoiler: After a brutal fight between the two that callbacks to their pregame together and Garret seeming to be on the cusp of killing him, Andi Victorino comes in for the save.]]

* Jeremy Torres and Lucinda Garret having a car chase across the island, complete with music blaring out their radio's as they take shots at each other. [[spoiler: It even ends in a spectacular car crash between the two that leaves Lucinda burning as Jeremy takes his own life in defiance of the game, content in how he has done]].

* Speaking of SADD, [[AntiVillain Bobby Jacks']] encounter with the group is definitely one of his best moments. Keeping his cool in the face of a giant MexicanStandoff (Bobby vs. Everyone else) Bobby manages to calm down the situation, and when things finally go to hell, both walk out of the fight completely unscathed ''and'' kill three people, granting him the distinction of being the only guy to pick a fight with SADD (the largest group in ''SurvivalOfTheFittest'' v1-3) and come out on top.

* Bryan Calvert ''dropkicking'' Felix Travertil off a roof, causing him to smash through the skylight of the adjoining antebuilding. {{Badass}}? Why yes, yes he is. The incident is famous enough that his handler (the real life Bryan) has a picture of himself dropkicking a tree.

-->"Hand slipped." She said, her face cold and unreadable. [[{{Badass}} "The next one won't miss."]]
