Skills for Paintball

Imagine standing at your base holding a color gun ready to bolt into battle like a lion charging at its prey. Well, in order for that to become a reality you need to know paintball is very fun but is very demanding.When playing you need to be strong, have smarts, and be tough.
To begin with, being strong is important because for one thing the gun is heavier than it looks and you need to run with it. Another thing you need to be strong for is breathing. At first the mask pushes up and it’s like breathing through a twisty straw and I had to adjust it between multiple games so you need to be strong to get used to it. The last thing is complete objectives for example you need to pull levers sometimes and some of them are made so the feel like they need oil.
Second and probably the biggest you need to have smarts for example, you can’t just run in the open or you can say hello to an ice bath. In addition to that you need to have patience my friend jumpy ran out and got obliterated. Another big thing for smarts is ammo don’t shoot thirty bullets at a man try preserving ammo so you can play longer and lower the chances of a serious injure. One last thing for smarts is strategy this is very important especially when you’re playing capture the flag or holding down a fort you need surprise or even amounts of guys to get the best of the game
Finally you need to be tough. The first thing is you can’t get scared it could make you less helpful for example, in my first game I felt like there was a tornado of butterflies in my stomach and that made me much less effective. Another thing is you can’t roll around and cry when your shot (getting shot feels like getting hit with a lacrosse ball or baseball) that could get you shot more than once.Iin addition to that you need to be able to say your hit for example, my friend was hit and just mumbled he was out and ended up being hit like 12 more times his back looked like a wall in Philly.
In conclusion paintball is a very demanding game requiring the strength of a ram, the smarts of a chimpanzee, and the toughness of a lion. I hope now you can get the best of your put rainbow graffiti on your friend’s clothes experience.
