Tips and Tricks Clockta-style Vol. 2

Last week, I talked about how one should handle a situation in which they are outnumbered. This week, I want all of you readers to try the opposite of this. When your team has numbers, you must end the game quickly. Do not give the other team time to regroup and dig in. Use your numbers to spread the field and run on them. If people are moving, this will keep the other team in a panic. There is nothing more frightening than seeing someone quickly moving up your weak side. When you have numbers, send one of your guys sprinting up the opposite tapeline that the players left on the other team are on. Meanwhile, have another player post on the bunker(s) that the remaining player(s) are in.

Another thing I want all of you to work on is your stance. The standard position is called the “power stance” where I come from. Get a strong base, feet spread about shoulder length apart. Squat down a bit, not too far but far enough that most of your weight is held on your knees. Tilt the marker toward the opposite hand that you are shooting with. This will protect your hopper by the bunker. The hopper is a huge target if it is hanging out too far. Lastly never point your gun down. Always have it pointed up, barrel looking down the field. This way you are always prepared for those unexpected runs by the other team. Clocktapus says "Keep your guns up and your mask on!"
