What are those moments that against the odds something positive and relatively rare happens in a game that helps you get with the upper hand while playing.
It could be something like:
1) An enemy not doing something he usually does and allowing you to win/move forward/escape/find something out
2) An online player doing something stupid that makes you win/kick some asses
3) Some aleatory factor resolving into your benefit (in a dire situation)
4) Finding something/something appearing in a moment of need that keeps you from drowning in disaster
5) Other?
EXAMPLE:
When I was playing Fallout 3, I had just gotten out of the Vault and was walking my way to Megaton with very crappy everything: armor and weapons, and a random encounter between the Vault and Megaton gave me a a deadly Deathclaw...
That would normally mean death, specially in such an early part of the game. However, that encounter seems to have been a Deathclaw fighting something else - which the Deathclaw killed - and got to cripple the Deathclaw's leg before I had to engage it, minimazing it's speed and letting me kill it by shooint from afar.
What have been your lucky moments while gaming?
