pacman Posted November 29, 2004 Report Posted November 29, 2004 When i first started playing subspace i sucked. But over time and with the help of good players i learned and got better. After my break when i came back to SS, i started here in 17th. I sucked, some of you remember. But with the help of good players and patience, i got better. Some would say im good. Alot of people hate javs, but javs are the lifeblood of 17th parallel. Argue that if you want, but so long as league is jav only, Jav's will forever be so. Sometimes spray and pray just doesnt cut it. It's too bad more players arnt willing to help newbies like in the old days. I offer simple training to anyone who wants to learn how to use a jav. I'm not the best jav in 17th, i dont claim to be, but i know a few things that ive picked up over the years, alot of which give most pros an edge. I dont promise your gonna be better, its up to you to use whatever i can teach you effectivly. If you want to learn how to use the jav join the shaitan chat; ?chat=shaitan Depending on the response i get i'm willing to setup actual times to meet. But mostly PM me when im looking dead or inbetween javwars and rumbles. Im more than happy to help the willing. Talk to me or Denali about the chat (its his chat) and/or if we're available for training. I don't know what he teaches if he even does (although thats why he made the chat). Best of luck. -pacman Quote
pacman Posted December 1, 2004 Author Report Posted December 1, 2004 Lol, i lose my internet tomarrow for what could be a few months, so i cant help any of you wouldbe javs for a while. But here are a few brief tips so your not screwed Javs can fire forever if you use about a 1.5 second delay between shots. This is called freefire. You don't recharge while doing this so be wary of that. Ideally this tactic is best used in intervals, 3-4 quick shots, then recharge, then 3-4 more, if your opponent is reeling from the !@#$%^&*ult freefire, keep he/she from recharging so you can get into a position to finish the job. You should only use the jav's natural rate of fire up close when your for sure gonna hit, or to stack your shots for deathblows. You have bombs. The best players have learned how to use bombs effectively. Always fire back, even when your being chased. Keeping your enemy off balance is key. Patience isnt just a virtue its strategy. Get your opponent where you want em, then crush them. Learn to fight effectively flying backwards. A double edged sword can cut deep with either side. Against 2v1 or 3v1 your always going to be on the defensive. But dont focus on escaping, freefire back when you have the energy to in order to thinout the !@#$%^&*ult. Find a wall to setup camp or find a way to counter. I cant count how many times ive lived against 3 people by finding a nice solid wall to bounce off in order to plow through one of the 3, almost always killing at least 1 of them. Ask pros and veterans to help you. Learning on your own can take a very long time, ive played subspace for 4 years (took 2 off) and i still dont pick up on some of the simple things. Dueling hones your skills while playing rumble/javwar/sbl teaches you awareness and to work with others. Do both often. Sorry i can't be around to help you individually, but sometimes it is what it is. Good Luck-pacman Quote
