    We used to have a guy with 6 pods + hopper, and the other two with 3-4 pods + hopper. Although at some points our front guys did go down to two pods. That always worked for us. That back guy just hammers, the entire game until you are up in numbers and then you close it out.

    As for a tournament... Figure no more than 3 cases for the team. You might have an unusual game that may take a lot of paint, but other than that, you should be fine.

          I just played in a tourny yesterday and there was 1 team that shot 4-5 pods a game and they played 15 games and they shot 4 cases each... so 12 cases for the team

            on a 5 man tourney, playing every game and finishing first, between all the players on the team, 6 cases. General rule of thumb, never buy more than 2 cases of paint per player since games aren't that long and not everyone will be shooting a hill of paint on your team. As a back-man, sure, you might shoot 3 or 4 pods plus a hopper in a game, but that's a lot of shooting for a 3 minute game, ya know? As a back on a 5 man I rarely shoot more than 3 pods and a hopper. Usually it's the hopper off the break, reload with a single pod and play from there. Most paint I've ever shot in a tournament game was hopper plus 5 pods and that was because the game turned out to be a stalemate at a 2 on 3 (us 2) with use playing lock-down defense, then we both dropped a body and it ended rather quickly after that with me being last man standing and time rapidly evaporating from the clock.
