Teabag Prevention #15 – Guardian
Following the return of jake108’s hiatus, the Teabag Prevention team has started out fresh with a new series designed to show the not-so-talented Halo adventruee how to navigate in all the maps they’re getting ball-faced in. For a map that’s used for many games, it shouldn’t need much indroduction. Well, fine: introducing…
THIS WEEK: GUARDIAN
TIP #1 – GET YOUR GUN
Guardian has four gravity lifts, two floors, hallways, ramps, and hiding places. It’s a map that anyone could easily play on. An easy way of controlling the map would have to be with the Battle Rifle. The Battle Rifles are located on the top floor of gold gravity lift spawn
and Carbines located on the second floor of the Sniper tower. Keeping these weapons that do massive damage at medium to long range oppenants might allow you to gain the lead and progress to victory.
TIP #2 – BOOMSTICK
Shotguns can be a useful weapon in this case. The shotgun spwans on the bottom floor under the blue room.
Hallways are a great way to put this weapon into action. Camping may be an only option when faced with multiple oppenents. In this case, just stay ready to jump out when that enemy turns the corner.
Note: Shotguns are by far the best short range weapon. Always keep moving when you have a shotgun, because people will often respawn and go back to your camping point. Be ready for them by always keeping them guessing – keep moving. You’re a lone warrior on this map with a shotgun, and you don’t want to stop until all those shells are gone. Congratulations, you are now a maniac. Use that to your advantage and never stop moving, you crazy son of a bitch. Shoot ’em up.
TIP #3 – CASPER THE FRIENDLY MURDERING PSYCHOPATH
In a dark map like Guardian, something like Active Camo can greatly improve your chances when encountering an opponent or two or three. It’s on YOU whether you can get the job done right. When you get Active Camo, hide in corners. Wait until your enemies turn their backs on you so that you may score a stealthy kill. There are plenty of places to hide here. Use them wisely.
Active Camo and being equipped with a Sniper Rifle can also rake in the kills. Crouch for invisibility and become a sniping ghost.
Caution: The Sniper spawn (directly to the left of the picture above) has barrels that will blow up if shot. Get ride of those before you decide to camp there.
TIP #4 – THE SHIELD
Overshields should not be taken for granted.
Even though they do have a great advantage on everyone else on the map, when there is combined fire put on them, the sheild that protects them depletes rather quickly. During an FFA, you whore that overshield like you’ve whored nothing else. Remember that the first few seconds of picking it up, you can’t get hurt. Use this to your advantage. But don’t get cocky: “you’re not Superman, you know”.
TIP #5 – CAMPING GROUNDS
In FFA, keeping control of a place where you can target the most enemies is the best way to go about it. This place is the Sniper Tower. You may go to the top,
go to the mid-section,
and drop down the bottOm to get the rats below.
This lower level is great for sniping people going up the “yellow” lift. The top is good for people dumb enough to be walking through the middle of the map with that “no no no, I can make it!” sense about them. If there were any a spot to camp in this map, this would be it.
When on the bottom level, you can see people coming for you from above very easily. Always get away from the opening, back up, wait for them to come down, toss a grenade and hit them with a headshot with a BR and you’re done. Next!
This is the best camping spot in the map. Use it wisely and not like a retard (standing in one spot with your scope up waiting for people from far away while some undeserving fool gets you with an assassination).
