How to Move & Shoot During Paintball

Video Transcript

Hello. This is Rob Rubin, and you're watching Expert Village. Hey Joey! Hold this. Thanks man. All right. Now I'm making a point with this. And that is, this going to represent the line of fire from Joey, who is behind that bunker over there. This is about where he can shoot at from. Keep in mind that paintball markers can only shoot at one direction at a time. So this is going to represent his angle of fire on somebody like me, behind this bunker here. Now, knowing this and knowing that this is the line, this is where he's shooting at. If he's shooting at me from this side, guess what, I still have a shot at him. And you have to be wondering, well how's that possible? He's got you under fire. He's got you shooting that thing. Well, it's very simple. Like I said, he's only shooting one direction. So this is where his barrel is pointed. This bunker has a right side and a left-hand side, not to mention a top side. So, from here, I can still come up at various angles. And that's kind of the lesson of this episode, and that is that you can advance. You can shoot at the opponent while you are "under fire". You've just got to know what you're doing. His line of fire is going to be over this bunker. What that means is I can get underneath this bunker and a visual line of sight and start crawling in front of him. Basically, I'm using his bunker as cover for my movement. The reason that works is that he can't see me. He physically cannot see my move from that position. So I'm crawling under his line of sight, and hopefully, I might actually shoot him for a change. Yeah right. And this is how you move under fire. He might be shooting at me. He might be shooting over my head. He might even get a lucky ball to break and maybe angle down on me, but I'm not going to count on it. However, there is one way that you can try to even the odds a little bit. If you know that he's shooting from this angle and the opponent is firing balls over your head, use your cover to basically give yourself cover fire. You're going to snap shoot using the available cover, and see if you can put him back in. And if it works, get up and move.
