          Very cool

          Anyhow, why the heck not explain sweetspotting,

          It basically means 3 things

          The first is becoming a popular term, its also known as laning or keying. In simple terms you laydown a rope of paint off the break to prevent players from moving up on the feild. Later on the game you will sweetspot down areas of the feild where you suspect players to move through, in hope to either keep them in place or mark them while they move.

          Second is a term used regarding regulators and finding their best spot for efficiency.

          Third is an older term which basically means just finding the spot on your trigger where you can get into a nice rythm shooting (without the aid of trigger bounce and reactivity of course). Basically just using the minimal kick of the marker and your trigger fingers to keep the marker firing at a nice rythm. This usually applies to mech triggers since on electros you'll shoot faster walking or raking.

            Thanks for the explanation. I understand sweetspotting the lane...that I can do.

            It's the trigger part I'm working on. Trying to figure out how to twitch my fingers fast enough to get the most of the Emag. Heh.

            Darn mechanicals have me used to firing slower.
