Recoil & spray

Stop moving before firing. Start with controlled two-to-four-shot bursts at medium range, and let your accuracy recover between bursts. Pull down as you spray and practice the horizontal changes on a private server.

Pro tips

01

Hold your crosshair at head height before you peek.

02

Use cover to isolate one opponent at a time.

03

Practice your first bullet accuracy before long sprays.
