Although this question is about exactly one year old (Halo 2 anniversary on last Thursday? I think?), I will answer it. "The Guardians" are not some U83R c00L machine or elite possé of devastating AI players, contrary to popular belief. In fact, you cannot be killed by another existing player to be killed by The Guardians.
I thought you guys were talking about the guardians on campaign because those are the little flying robots that shoot you with beams and you die.. The above statement is completely ridiculous and hasn't a shred of truth in it. First of all, there are no guardians in single player because in single player there is no text that reads "You were killed by...". That text only occours in multiplayer because of the custom names. Although I hate too, I'm going to go ahead and say it: DUH! ARE YOU [Expletive Deleted]ING BLIND?! Now that that's out of my system, I'll finally tell you what "The Guardians" is. (Yes that is singular [is], it's not just bad grammar.) As I said, you cannot be killed by another player to be killed by the Guardians, with the exception of a few tricks that are used to manipulate the script that runs everytime a player dies. To be killed by the guardians, you have to be killed by some aspect of the environment, such as splash-damage, or an inconsistency in the game code (glitch). The most common way to respawn because of a Guardian-induced death is being blown through a wall, mountain, or the ground right as you are dying. This can happen for a number of reasons; you are in an abnormal area and a grenade explodes by your feet, you are splattered by a vehicle so forcefully that you actually defy the in-game physics and end up on the outside of a mountain, and others. Because of the rarity of a "Killed by the Guardians", there is not really a set list of how to be killed by the Guardians. It almost always happens unexpectedly and when you go back to try it again it never works, unless you find one of the quadrillions of tricks floating around the beloved WWW or on Xbox Live. By the way, the "little flying robots that shoot you with beams and you die" are Sentinels.
