3-man tourni tips??

[CoFFeY[NiTrO]]

Anyone have any tips?

I have never played in a tourni before and we are playing in one tomorrow. Any tips on positioning the 3 of us ? Any other basic tips would help too, thanks

The great thing I really liked about playing three man was you really dont have to rely on back guys. One player can do very sufficiently for himself, so if you have three guys that can do this your set. Play very aggresively, and always keep your mind set that you are the only one left on your team, thats how I looked at it.

Typically if the field is small enough I like to send someone up the middle off the break ... more times then not you can get the flag and control the middle.

Keep a real good-eye on your tape guys ... being only three people its easy to lose a tape and the whole flank if you arent watching.

I usually like to play one back and two forward, mostly to get ground in the beginning and still able to have a guy watching the spread of the other team from the start.

Id go with 2 men back, one in the middle. That way u have a good chance of getting someone off the break which makes a HUGE difference in a 3man. Make sure ur gun is working. I borrowed my freinds cocker because my gun wouldnt shoot at all, and the cocker broke down 6/7 games, with double feeding and just not shooting and such. We would have made the finals if it was working.

you have an xmag and have never played in a tourny? just get lots of paint and let your mag take care of everything else.

Yah, I don't need to worry about breaking down, I have my Xmag.

Watch the tape, lose control of it and you're done for. I've been in an elimination tourny where I circled the field chasing someone, all because I took control of the tape. I moved all the way back to their break point and they just ran. If you can keep their attention on the center of the field, and move up the tape, you will have a good chance of winning. The only danger of advancing alot on the sides is that if you lose someone, it's a third of your team down. Goodluck and have fun.

When you walk the field and say "We cant let anybody in that bunker or we will lose" then send somebody to that bunker. Have them keep their head down and let their bunker get pounded, and that should leave one of the two of you open to move around a lot more.

In three man I feel that getting 2-3 guns up off the break and not letting them get the flag is more important than taking ground.

I'll probably be using the X for covering off the break.

talk talk talk thats the most important thing in any tourney. always have 2 guys laneing off the break. after the break you can send 2 guys up or just 1 guy but be sure too have at least 2 in back to start. be agresive. im not a fan of the snake in 3 man because it takes to long. make sure that u dont just get to a bunker and stay there keep things moving change up were u shoot from. never play head on with a guy always cross it up

[cockermongol]

2 front 1 middle. have your front guys sprint to postition and have your middle guy jog to position, constantly firing. (when i say middle, i don't mean the 50 i mean your 25)

[The Dreaded Jew]

if thge field is too narrow and/or short i say keep either two or all three of you in the back if it can hold all of you and try and sweet spot the other team then put pressure on any remaining guys and send one guy to grab the flag and finish up the other team

How does tourni scoring work??? Lol I have yet to figure that one out. I know I'm a n00b with an Xmag
