Is being able to shoot really fast necessary?

just a thought though...if your laying down a string of paint at 6 bps, is it really that much less effective than laying down a string at 18 bps?

well when ur playin tournament it does help to fire fast
but when i was at the lay down i was just laying lots of paint and was getting no where ,so i ended up just shooting burstsof paint and waiting for the back player to come back out ,and it work as soon as i stop and started shooting bursts ,i got him right in the mask

You can pop out into a string of 6bps and snap off a couple of shots - 18bps and I'm staying in mate

Exactly when someone puts me in I am listening and watching for how fast the paint is coming in, if their is a gap in the paint (say with 6bps) its actually not that hard to get out and get 3 balls in the air.
But as Mr Pink said if sum1 is throwin out da love with 18bps am not cumin out that side like think i ll go out the other side instead

this could be on the gold boards


yea mak d ,i see the point u stayin in ,but u wanna get them out and like u say ,u wait til u can come out and if they have a slower marker this could work to there advantage of u miss timing their marker

it all depends
hard topic will get interesting answers ,am i the only sayin speed not always matters

ok lads loose the testosterone.
any one who says they can/m8's can- constanlty do 18/20 bps are talking poo

and if there is NO BALLS hammering on your cover at all, you come out... and catch the lonely one ball shot by the pump player on the other end of the field...
as i said days ago...it depends on your game style. in tourney fast shooting helps but sharp shooting helps a lot more i'd say. so practice that and then learn to shoot faster. i know back guys from the old school, they fire about 10-12 bps but they take you out for sure and i got a front player on the team who shoots his gun so well, he doesnt have to lay strings very often BUT this is because we also got a couple of guys in the back that blast loads so his opponents have to get tight or have to go to the deadbox.

You dont need to be able to shoot fast, I play front and hardly ever use more than a hopper load, the rest of my team would have you belive that I'm tight or just bloody lazy but this is not true. I just pick my targets well.

paintball is about dominance, in Germany at the Millennium event, i shot around 4 pots and half a hopper every game playing front, and we made it into the semis. In Amsterdam i shot similar amounts and we made it into the finals and came 4th. would we have got there if we weren't pounding the other team with paint,..i doubt it. Obviously it needs to be shot accurately, but dominance and firepower are the ways forward. Best way to win.....? hmmmm....shoot 25 cases of paint a tourney, and wear DYE kit, shooting belsales Race Guns, with Draxxus paint, and Extreme Rage packs and head bands!
