Intimidating your opponent

[PortoX]

dont let them no what your doing ... i.e. where your going, what your main shooting area is, how your feeling, where you got that cool looking gear from

if needs be ... lie

I dont condone lieing but to be fair you put off your opponent then your one step ahead of the game

also Practise makes Perfect

train and play as often as you can even if its not with your team (unless your contracted to shoot X paint or be at X training ground) train against others against punters against walls anything or anyone to keep yourself playing

play in higher divs occasionally and just keep going

easy as really ... kick a$$ and get a name for yourself

mines tom ... who the hell are you?

mines the jump and shoot

edit: i dont really take any notice of people "Grrrr'ing" at me, to try and intimidate me, i just walk to the start gate and get ready to shoot them

I remember back in the day of the Barts stud squad, my mate Billy inimidated Adam Woodyatt (Ian Beal from eastenders) by standing at the back and shouting "Wicksy's shagging your Mrs!" Those that are old enough will know what that was about.
Then later on that day when Mr Woodyatt was stood chatting to some girl groupies by the grub van, Billy said "Hi mate, what you doing here.... The catering???"
I laughed anyway!!

Well, most of these only actually work if your team already has some kind of reputation going for itself.

My personal favourites are:
If you know that they are likely to get someone to make a difficult run such as snake off the break or something, just point at them and then start talking to one of your teamates, but make sure he sees this, he will most likely think you already know about what he's gonna do and that you're going to be gunning for him, this will make him extra nervous and will raise his chances of not suceeding.

Either this or just point my gun at my mirror bunker before I'm getting ready to breakout so the guy will think I'm shooting him.

These normally work in getting your opponents a tad more preocupied.

Either that or have a really loud and intense huddle.

attack of the nerds ... be VERY affraid, alternatively next time someone does that check they havent 'fiddled' with their board and get him checked for bounce

so they'd hear you coming then i prefer the silent nip round the opposite side of the bunker and a couple of shots to the back, that normally makes them poo their pants
